- You pop out of the ocean and hear the faint yells of the lifeguard. The whole beach panics. Your turn around. Something lurks in the water. Before you can say "Loch Ness monster," a tall shadow emerges, lunging with its sharp teeth headed your way. If the Styxosaurus were around today, where would it live? What would your potential demise have to do with being crushed by stones? And why could it be more afraid of you than you'd be of it?

do more of these dinosaurs what if, that's so good to watch
Thank you, we appreciate your support!
Couldn't agree more!!!
@@WhatIfScienceShow Might not be a great idea but what if all extinct animals suddenly came back? and by all of them i mean all animals that went extinct
Umm Dinosaurs cant swim this one is a marine reptile i think I am not sure but its def not a Dinosaur.
@@WhatIfScienceShow thanks for your awesome videos
The animals and dinosaurs from the past were truly terrifying massive monsters
Yeah imagine they lived during our time
Mehh humans are still the most terrifying beings in this world.
What’s krazy is humans are takin each other out ; instead of being greatful the dinosaurs aren’t … 🤯 krazy world
@@sunshinekadoeglow2398 nahh humans will wipe out the dinos...
@@sionc1372 big ass Dino’s ? Good luck 👍🏽
The fact that it basically ended in 'yeah we'll probably eat it' is hilarious to me
He's right tho - everything meaty is stuff we've eaten at some point as species, and if Styxsosaurus was still around, you can bet that it would be part of Chinese or Japanese cuisine (as they rely heavily on seafood).
As intimidating as most animals of the past like Dinosaurs, Megalodons, etc. are to us in view, humans would likely adapt and do well against all of them (even ancient humans). We have so many built in advantages with our intellect that none of these creatures would truly pose a threat other than in specific situations where we are trapped in nature. Also bigger isn't always better, this is why some of the animals today are far more successful and in some ways, more dangerous to humans. Insects are one of the most prevalent animals in the world today.
If that animal was alive today you would have a different view, there is a reason those prehistoric animals did not live with humans
These things are scary looking , but they ate small fish … Mosasaurs … now we’re talking scary … and to your comment about us being able to adapt if dinosaurs were around … NOPE .
If Dino’s never went extinct… we would have never evolved past nocturnal rodents . Velociraptors held our niche , they were smart , they believe had hierarchy like wolves or primates , could communicate , efficient at hunting everything … and faster than a horse or similar speed … and we’re talking velociraptors… now we get into t-Rex / Spinosaurus … or even better , let’s look at plant eaters … triceratops/ long necks the size of buildings / ankylosaurus equivalent of todays grazers (cows) … had armour plates everywhere and a gigantic boulder as the tip of their tale … or even better … small Dino’s that steal eggs or small helpless animals … kinda like what a baby human would be …. Forget it …. No damn way in hell humans would fare good in any scenario ever with Dino’s in the picture …. Like ever … even if we have good brains … to them would just mean more protein loll
I literally single handedly changed the views from 69k to 70k...amazing feeling
You deserve more recognition for your videos 💯🙌 WHAT IF 🔥
I know a new one you can do what if we slowed down the rotation of our planet
Thank you for your support!
Lol
The rocks in its stomach could b just formations of dirt hardening together postmortem.
Next vid, "What If The 2 Docufictions The Last Dragon aka Dragon: A Fantasy Made Real or Dragon's World, and Mermaid: The Body Found Was Real?" The science upon them was so accurate to rl. But those r 2 more stories for more...What If.
So glad to hear that some people still remember those! ♥️
This is just terrifying 😭😭😭 glad they don’t exist 😅
they did exist, they are just extinct
What i have a problem is that many people (thanks to movies like jaws and jurassic park) think these awesome animals are just brutal ruthless monsters that just like killing everything in there sights which is just not true, they are much more than just that
Hey I know you from Ninja Nerd
Did they really go extinct? 😈. We r still not 100% sure 👹.
They did technically go extinct dinosaurs like theropods (t Rex and other carnivore Dinosaurs) probably evolved into birds
Nice content keep it up
I just started watching you and I wondered could you make a Mosasaurus one or have you already made one
Love what if videos
We love you too, stay tuned for more fun content to come! 🙂
I love the creature different types of , especially big one like dinosaur and medium one , do more like this 😇
Hey What If!
I love your videos so entertaining and educating
"What if the Styxosaurus fought the Leviathan Whale?"
I think we all know that the Leviathan whale would obviously and easily win and eat the Styxosaurus if the two met each other.
@@mohammedahmmed9827 Howd you automatically assume that?
@@shivpatel5413 isn’t it obvious? The Leviathan whale has a much more robust, stronger, bigger, and intimidating body than the Styxosaurus, not to mention the fact that the Leviathan has much more taller and sharper teeth that could bloodily injure the Styxosaurus’ soft body very badly, in addition to that, the Leviathan whale is actually fast despite how big it is, even faster than the Megalodon shark. So I think that even if the Styxosaurus saw the Leviathan whale and they didn’t fight, the Styxosaurus would be intimidated at the Leviathan’s huge body, and even if the Styxosaurus managed to escape with bites on it due to the Leviathan biting it, it would still die from blood loss considering how strong and big the Leviathan’s teeth are. Even the Leviathan’s rival and enemy, the Megalodon, would also absolutely eat and destroy the Styxosaurus.
@@mohammedahmmed9827 Thanks for the fun facts, totally appreciate my dude!
@@shivpatel5413 You’re welcome, buddy!
If it were alive in modern times, Steve Irwin would’ve grabbed it by the tail and yanked it out of the lake with a good ol “crikey!”
Yeah he would
Love your video great work
Love from India buddy
The thumbnail pic, it's exactly what I thought one time, swimming in an old quarry.. first ever panic attack, completely irrational..
I have Thalassophobia, so I still would be scared out of my mind.
Our next video is actually about how to survive thalassophobia. Might be worth checking out when we post it in a few days 😉 can't say I blame you
Insane Video
Great video
I was waiting for my friend to come out of the store and saw a magpie picking up little stones, it would spit most of them out.. I thought it wasn't the smartest bird.. I guess I was wrong.. 😄
Lol that's cute☺️ and hey when the guy was in the water and suddenly Whoops LOL he got Swallowed whole lol it was actually kinda funny wouldn't you agree?
Nice video.
We would just need a bigger aquarium.
Thank you for videos like this, What If 😃😃 I like Styxsosaurus a bunch, to me they probably were somewhat the bridge between dolphins and turtles. If they were around today, I think that they probably would have trouble to adapt to our oceans - but they probably would live more comfortably alongside humans, either being fully domesticated for food, as mounts (like horses, but in the water) or being trained for aquariums and water parks that were sufficiently large to support a small family/pod. Imagine the possibility of training them, getting them to recognize their human caretakers, and having a chance to pet them! 😃
is this Disney
You know dolphins and turtles aren't related like at all right (apart from being animals)?
@@thegcl6787 I know. I was just saying that Styxsosaurus looks like a mix between the two.
@@recuerdosdelayer606 Yeah definitely 💯 and hey the part where the guy was there then Whoops he got Swallowed whole lol it was actually kinda funny wouldn't you agree?
Man you would have to be a real badass to scare a huge sea monster.
They picked Styxosaurus so they could use Sea Monsters: A Prehistoric Adventure footage without pissing off the paleonerds.
Can someone tell me what the song is called in the background at 6:44?
What's that film at 2:52 ?
Wow amazing 😍😍
Humanity would probably make sure that it lands on the list of endangered species pretty fast.
What is the clip with the woman and the cage from at 2:48?
Your video is good
2:50 Does anyone know what this is from?
what if the sun was as large as jupiter?
(amazing video)

It wouldn't be a star.
Please do a video on "what if all germs disappeared"
Styx was prob my fav prehistoric animal even since I was a kid
It's pretty cute
2:49 What is the name of the film? It would be nice if someone could tell me.
Hey what if did you work in totally studios??? I saw you in a video from them!!!!!
can you do
“ what if all of earth was land “
now that would be interesting 🧐
There will be no life. Without ocean no lifeform could survive, because Earth will became a dry and hot planet
That's why he should make a video about it
if no ocean we die because most of the oxygen actually comes from ocean than that of trees
@@freefiresquadfriends4787 Most of the ocean comes from the atmosphere and the ozone layer, what are you talking about? And what even is free fire?
Yes 💪🏻
I have an idea. Do what if nobody was born for an entire year
Where are those clips from? Saw?
Do one of these for nothosaurus! They are defiantly scarier than a styxsosaurus!
An 80 to 150 kg creature that’s only 5 to 7 meters long battling a 2 ton 10 and 11 and 12 meter long creature? Nah, I think the much bigger Styxosaurus will make the Nothosaurus sob to it’s parents.
Really like the If of animals
3:30... could somebody tell what movie or show is that from... SOMEBODY?
cool video👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
ES HEMOCIONANTE, PERO ME ALEGRA Q YA SON HISTORIA ESE Y LOS DEMÁS DE ESOS TIEMPOS!!!!
What is the name of the movie/show at 2:50?
Great video❤❤❤
Thanks for watching! 🙂
2:50 which movie was that?
I think the Indian Ocean would be a big candidate for where it would be..deep oceans,lots of unique life and migration patterns of most Pelagic species of fish as well as large whales of most kinds for larger prey
Dirty waters
Anybody know what movie the scene at 3:30 is from?
One of my favorite Reptiles
A distant relative of Diplodocus, changed land for sea, and never looked back.
Lol rocking and rolling
The way it closes it's mouth reminds me of the scene where Hercules fought the hydra and then was swallowed by it.
Yeah lol definitely! And kinda like Jurassic Park remember that Awsome restroom scene where the really mean old greedy lawyer guy selfishly abbonond those poor kids he's hidden sitting on the toilet 😥 and Rexy She found him and just Came down on him Biting him Right up lol that was actually pretty funny looking wouldn't you agree?
Hi 👋 from the uk 🇬🇧💚
Does any one know which in which film is that cage scene 🙂
Dude i literly heard about this dinosaur several years before and i only heard it only one tiem in my life
Best video
At 2:49 , movie name plz ???
Cooool man
Can you please leave a subtitle for the American version of the metric system
Just seems so weird to me that a underwater creature would need such a long neck, like land animals use it to reach things they can’t but u don’t have that problem under the ocean, u just swim up or down, and I doubt it was flexible enough to whip it through tight rocks and cracks . Maybe whoever discovered it pulled a fast one lol
Your comment is leaning towards lamarckism. Which is not always the case in nature, maybe these animals evolved in water randomly even when their long neck was of no use to them, or maybe their long neck actually helped them in resisting the drag of water. I don't know, these animals have remained a mystery for so long. If you do some research about them, pls do reply here.
Well all evolutions are not due to a reason some are pretty random
Thumbnail- where is it hiding
My Mind- under my zip
Yeah so is the Styx or sources bigger than nessie aka the lock Ness monster
When I saw the thumbnail I was like "hey is that the Same creature from the Avatar 2 trailer "
Scary stuff
It may be hiding in Marina Trench as there are lots of creatures there
I would just stay out of the water!🤣
Styxosaurus was a type of plesiosaur, which was a marine reptile that lived during the Late Cretaceous period, around 80-70 million years ago. It's currently extinct.
If Styxosaurus were still alive today, it would likely be found in a marine environment and would have to compete with modern marine animals for food and habitat. It would be interesting to see how it would adapt to the current marine ecosystem, and how it would interact with present-day marine animals.
It's important to note that the earth and its climate are vastly different today than it was during the Cretaceous period, and it is unlikely that the Styxosaurus would be able to survive in the present-day environment.
Did some googling turns out those stones are called gastroliths and they aid in digestion in animals which lack grinding teeth.
We got one in Loch Ness but we're not sure but they wonder styxosaurus just like douthinktheysauras
What if we sleep for several hours? Make video on it
Can someone tell me what movie/TV show that is where the woman was trapped in that cage and about to killed by the metal spike? At 2:50
Planting dot. (Not the movie's name, just wanting to be notified if someone knows the answer)
I also need to know the name?
The forever purge
@@thenamesaj8554 thanks!
I wish it were alive again along with the other prehistoric marine life
Then the dinosaurs that walk the land would have to be alive too, an their not small , they would stomp into your house and smush u 🦕 🦖, just a 💭 thought.
I've thought the same
I definitely do not wish that …
These are reptiles we’re talking about here … you know … like the Komodo Dragon … or the salt water crocodile …. Go pet one …. Now think to yourself … the animals you wish were still around …. Are double if not triple the size of those two gigantic reptiles I’ve just mentioned …
You sure you’d still like our oceans to be filled with always hungry / hissing underwater giant carnivorous reptiles ?
Damnnnn🔥🔥
3:25 Chickens do the same. Although they are herbivores, as opposed to the Styxosaurus portrayed here, they swallow small pebbles to aid them in digestion. Actually, it’s a quite funny, albeit puzzling thing to watch as a child.😊
I wish scientists could bring some dinosaurs back from extinction, but modify them to be much smaller, so they can adapt to the current world and not die from starvation
dinosaurs like the trex really dont need to be smaller if they live in a place like african savana
Im cinfused if i should call it styphyxsaurus or loch ness monster
He should make what if every animal that is extinct comes back even in the ocean animals
What If Styxosaurus Was Alive?
Pods of Orcas: Nope, not happening.
Yeah definitely and hey when the guy was in the water then suddenly Whoops he got Swallowed whole lol it's actually kinda funny wouldn't you agree?
I guess they should have just called it sea giraffe 😂
Styxosaurus may break my bones but ‘zards will never hurt me.
Ok now I'm prepared to fight it😼
If that actually happens, I would just move to Iceland.
This dinosaurs looks similar to the myth of Scotland Loch Ness Monster
What if earth is as small as moon?
so they're like giraffes of the ocean
الاسطوره ممتع تفكر فيها بس تخوف في نفس الوقت 😂❤🤷🏻
Can you make this please
What if germany won world 2
NOW THAT'S A REAL MONSTER ✨✨
video inspired by David Attenborough’s prehistoric planet
It was 12 meters longer not 10 meters plus the half of his length was his neck that is just amazingly impressive. He lived at the end of Cretaceous, so that’s a late Cretaceous species that lived between 86 millions and 72 millions of year BC. I wish I was living among all of those animals without them seeing me so I could just be safe while looking at their behaviors and how they lived etc… 🙏🏻🤩🦕
aww poor thing is just hungry simple solution just get in it's mouth and feed it problem solved🤣

Stixosaurus it my fav dino
5 likes& THATS IT! WOWO what a intriguing video this was, LEARNING THAT PREHISTORIC SHARKS/AMPHIBIANS LIVED IN OCEANIC COASTS OF an average HOT temperature of around 99 degrees F(33-36C) Therefore if they tried to thrive in our time, they would simple die to the lack of adapting changes in DECLINING CLIMATES! Idk this behemoth-orcasized reptile-named Styxosaurus even existed- with the Temper no greater than GW'S", apparently it got hunted down totally by the help of modern-day sharks that were hungry in their era! LGA, also Well, I always learn smth new anyways, too0! Plus, this long-necked amphibian was prone to disease-infested waters and nothing else, too, unfortunately! Also, they have a potential demise have to do with being crushed by stones!
It was a reptile not an amphibian
@@thegcl6787 I know lol I just put it just cause I wanted to :)
i mean there is so little percentage of ocean actually discovered , why could not be they among us and we dont know ( only about 5 percent has been discovered)
So basically this was the lockness monster
