Have you ever seen a penguin as big as a human? Well, now you can! In this TH-cam short video, you can.
There was a species of penguin called kumimanu biceae that grew to be over 6 feet tall, towering over many modern-day humans.
The largest fossil found stood at 6-foot 8-inches and terrorized the Antarctic planes.
However, today the largest species of penguin is the Emperor Penguin which is significantly shorter than 6 feet in height.

Imagine, we were this close to having a planet dominated by intelligent penguins.
actually it's sad that extinct 💔
Honestly, I'd rather got my planet dominated by a chill penguin than by a brutal chimpanzee.
@@user_anonymous000Penguins are not chill, theres a recorded incident of a male penguin doing a certain "deed" to a dead baby penguin....
@@carrots6249 umm.. Comparing to chimps, i think these creature is pretty chill. Chimps would attack other species for no reason, cannibalize their own kind, and torturing their prey as painful as possible before they killing it. chimpanzee choose to be aggressive at any situation and would gang up on bigger enemy while penguin hesitate to even attacking something bigger than them. If they were dominating the world, i think they would see us pretty much like a how we see a bear (big, scary, and need to be avoided) while chimp maybe will treat us like a pet or worst than that, we would be putted in a zoo.
@@carrots6249there are rape cases everyday now though
Female penguins: I only date 6ft and above penguins 😤
sad for today's penguins 💔
Damn.. I guess I'm staying single then.. 🥲
@@mr.penguin8695bruh just tap dance with yo feet and all the hoes will come at you.
😂😂😂
Then we would be seeing 6ft tall penguins today, not 6in tall penguins.
The good old days
these days will back again 🐧 🖤
Well said good sir.
@@BringMeTheMonkeys thanks my friend
😂
sir nils olav the third? What on earth are you doing on youtube?
Seeing the penguin's body so big, I felt like hugging it because it was like a soft pillow.
Small penguins = cute
Huge penguins= RUN
How big i thought emperor penguins were until i saw them in comparison pictures to humans
Around 4 trillion years ago, there was a species of penguins were 500+ feet tall
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's just science...
There was no earth trillion years ago, yeah but penguin alone existed.
they nerfed penguins😔🙏
😂😂
Penguins being my fav animal:
Perfect size for hugging ❤
As a penguin from 50 million years ago I see this as an absolute win
Opium bird be like:
Bradley: I’m 260
6’2 260 lmao
"I'D RATHER MARRY A PENGUIN THAN A HUMAN"
-all the girls
well, this is something to think about 😉
That would be beastiality you can't do that
I'm calling the police
Sounds like animal abuse, poor penguin
They are into beastality?
why all gigantic animals died?!
I think it's best for everyone that way
They were yummy.
Prob cause there isnt enough oxygen in the sky for those kind to stay alive
They were probably delicious.
When temperatures get warmer, animals get smaller, on top of that, mass extinction events (like the big asteroid that wiped out dinosaurs) tend to wipe out larger species the easiest.
That’s kinda terrifying.
giant thug penguin.... 0_0
Bro was prolly chill asl
It would be cool and scary seeing a giant penquin
These penguins are like the emporor penguins
they could be their ancestors 🐧
Dude I sat thru 3 loops before I realized...
sorry for the confusion 😂
@@Tashakeel oh it's not a bad thing😅 it's a great loop that's all
The largest penguins:”screw fish!,we’re eating sharks today for lunch!”
straight to the point and not hard to understand nice vid
Fun fact : the big penguins is called a colossus penguin
That is not the only big penguin
Big penguins are called "big" penquins.
@@epicdinobattleboy5713 yea ur right
Wait does that mean women actually want to date penguins 🗿🚬
it would be very romantic 😉
@Tashakeel What about Pingu
"I remember this good old days"
Whoa...
Anyone here from that tweet?
Yep
People who lived 50M years ago went extinct:
The penguin: Bro you took my chick you finna pull up so we can fight🗿
Tony Signorini and Al Williams 🤣
considering how fast and remarkably dangerous a real penguin could be in the water (if you, for whatever reason, are fighting a penguin...), imagine what this literal feathery torpedo would have been like when it swam... very cool thought indeed 👍
ITS NOW CALLED THE EMPEROR PENGUIN!!! MICHAEL...
that would’ve been sick to see
These peguins arent around to terrorize Gotham.
GIGA PENGUIN
THE FINAL BOSS OF ANTARCTICA
Imagine these animal are not extinct these giant penguin was mythical
I hope we can still have all these extinct animals now
@@Tashakeel sure but they might go on a Hazardous killing spree.
That professor that shot up his school wrote in his manifesto “penguins are getting taller” didn’t seem so crazy anymore
Opium birds
“So why are these woodlands so attractive to ✨pEnLiNgS✨ “
-Benedict
Every animals had their prime
This tidbit of information explains one of Batman's arch enemies. ☝️🙄
i didnt know 50 million years ago you can take pics with colors
How dare you I love penguin
check my other penguin video in the channel,
I hope you like it
Bro got to stand next to an emperor penguin!!! Living the dream
That's a pokemon or at least a Pal 😂
Do they still exist in Antarctica.
sadly no, they're extinct 💔
Now we know the Opiumbird was real
They lived in the submerged continent of New Zealandia.
Those claws one clean cut and you done💀💀💀
They're gorgeous
British people be like:wow that’s a lot of money
everything was giant then and some reason it's hard to believe that there was tall people also 😅
if everything were giant back then,
can't see why not giant people
That's called the king penguin
Wasn’t Antarctica ice free 50 million years ago? Kinda crazy how far back Penguins as a genus existed
Yes because the Animals back then drove Diesel Cars that made the Ice Melt.
No, Antartica was still an ice Island.
It was a separate content even before the Proterozoic period filled with ice.
IS NO GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT THEY’RE PEOPLE 50 MILLION YEARS AGO
It's too damn hot for a penguin to be wondering round here
" six feet tall" women - " six feet tall? Say no more. I'm yours"
Teacher: Name four kinds of penguins
Me: Kawazaki,cago,
Krico,estripper
These gigantic penguins did know they were penguins
When there is enough oxygen creatures can grow big,
we need more oxygen down here
We have blue whales which are the biggest ever, but smaller amounts of oxygen. please explain
You're not even saying the species of penguin
The real title of this short should be: _"How big you thought emperor penguins were when you were a child, until you finally saw one at a museum/zoo and were distraught at how tiny they actually were this whole time."_
That may have been just me, though.
In school, they taught us that emperor penguins were about the size of a 7 year old child. I was 7, when I learnt that, so I assumed: "Oh, so they're as tall as me."
The problem was that, as I grew, so did the imaginary penguin in my mind. I just subconsciously compared it to my own height for years, until I finally saw an emperor penguin at a museum at the age of 18.
Shattered everything.
You cant prove they werent sentient
It's the dinosaur of the cold world.
Nice report sharings💌
A penguin could take y'all down
Imagine that and inside its mouth the living ones mouths are scary enough
I love penguins, such a flawless creature.
If they were still alive I’d just want to hug one because they look so cuddly 🥹
that would be great
He's the breed of kawasaki and krico
penguin:😈
Emperor penguin is biggest now
I wish these birds were alive today
OMG!!! Never thought those existed!!
Imagin they still existed 😔
How tf is it 50milion years ago if a guy took a picture with one
draft them to the nba
That peinguin name was kairuku
I really hate when they use feet, pounds, gallon, miles, farenheit without also tell the 'Real Measurement'. This is 21st century, why we still bothered with ancient stupid imperial system
Because ("interactive") society is ruled by petty Reichlings that are desperate to feel important through weird methods and codings I guess
It's mee!
Came here from that tweet
Liar. Nothing was 50 million years!
The last great auks were killed by fisherman in 1844
there were probably no dolphin-like whale species then, so these pinguins filled the niche till dolphins evolved.
Bro said i'm the biggest bird
Million years later....
🗣️ : Around million years ago there used to be 6ft humans.
how the hell would they know it was 50 MILLION years ago?
easy, they calculate it dmbass you thought they just guessing?
This penguin name is (emperor)
Infinape and torterra😅😅
I thought that those penguins still lived 😂
I wish they still alive
Bring them back right now! Lol
I want one so bad
I hope they didnt exstinct ;-;
I love Penguin
Grilled penguin!! Mmmm....
The penguin
The penguin is real

Seamore island ? Seamore butts :)
