Velociraptor were basically large turkeys. 25kg is actually on the heavy side all told. The ones in Jurassic Park were modelled on other raptor species. In reality, Utahraptors are probably closet to what is portrayed in the film!
Indeed. a Utah Raptor is what the ones in the movie were based on; a Velociraptor is closer to what the movies showed as the compsognathus; it was about 1.8 meters *LONG* (as in: nose to tail tip), but only about a foot and a half tall, hence the light weight. A Utahraptor, for comparison, was about 1.5 meters *tall*, and 6 meters long, and weighed somewhere around 500 kilos.
I love Dan’s ASMR shoe repair videos 😂! Also, I love the relaxed look with the Black Sabbath T-Shirt, shorts white Nike socks, and running shoes. And that park looks nice.
That was Fun. Love the tour of the park. Looking forward to seeing the next one with your car. It's great to see you in other parts of your life. Love your interactions with your friends.
Just BINGED watched these vids---I had a flood---ground floor duplex in an old brownstone, too close to the Hudson---and was certain about ten grand worth of footwear was destroyed forever---After I watched I few of these vids and saw what you guys can do, I realized that they were absolutely salvageable and found a reputable shoemaker who restored all of them---extraordinary---not prohibitively expensive either---also made a 30 year old pair of loafers look almost new...
If you've got problems (grip, pain) with your precision screwdriver I can only suggest getting the iFixit Marlin Screwdriver Set or Driver Kit Set (Available in different sizes). Those are way more comfortable than the generic ones.
Wera do some really nice precision screwdrivers also or you could try some optical stainless Steel ones with ball bearing spinners. The I fix is a good suggestion as you have multiple size options.
Nice to see a specific video on toe plates. If you like the word Lulu and maybe a theme tune for when you are fitting them, the Fats Waller song Lulu's Back in Town, it will be on youtube somewhere.
Velociraptors were about the size of a large turkey, the monsters in Jurassic Park were made up by Steven Spielberg, but a species was discovered shortly after the filming that was named Utahraptor and is similar in size to Spielberg's vision.
Yeah google was correct on that one Velociraptors were essentially the size of a large wolf and they believe they did hunt in packs to bring down other larger dinosaurs so they'd still be quite dangerous but probably wouldn't have looked very menacing on a movie screen if they showed their actual size
Fun Fact..One early automotive tire actually had some lettering for tread so it would leave behind its name wherever it went but was more of a novelty. It would be a hoot if a replacement heel sole had dinosaur print do it look like you were being followed by one or even an animal print as well. Once an inventive thieves made forms for there boots to look like they were being left by the cows they were stealing as if they just walked away...😀
Fun fact: velociraptors were highly likely feathered. This serves as evidence of how birds are essentially modern-day dinosaurs. As for the online class, I don't think it's necessary considering how your channel is already highly informative. I have learned so much about shoes from just watching you work.
Having done it at home, the hard part for the home gamer is grinding the tap down to a smooth edge. I used an aluminum file and then a dremel, but it's still a bear.
Hello Dan!! Joe from Ft Lauderdale, FL, USA. Recently found your channel and now I am stuck!! Not only are you a talented cobbler but your gorgeous to look at!! Good Luck with all your endeavours!! Also LOVE your new car!!!
I understand the premise behind a toe plate but I don't believe I've ever seen a pair of shoes with a worn toe, seen loads with the sole worn right through and the welting worn off but never the toe.
Great video - as usual. As for the weight of this dinosaur. Maybe it's the ancestor of birds, and birds have light bones, so I think this dinosaur is light.
Great video... just add though, Lulu are no more. That style of toe plate is made by a firm called Au Lion now..... still French though. Easy to make your own more elegant versions out of brass plate though. ... and it's super cheap.
You clearly love the gym 💪 You work well, shoemaking is also a nice job if you have a sense for it The Russian-style long military boots were very fashionable here under the communist regime, but they were also durable in the front part of the nose and in the back part of the heel, they were also ironed until about the middle of the 60s
Do you get into a lot of fights over there in the pubs or in the street after dark? I assume you must havre a lot of guys who want to take you down? Nice shirt!
Great video Dan, but there was one thing missing......your catchphrase, so ill say it for you "Let's get sticky" 😂😂 p.s. how is the new house/home, are you all settled in?
On my dress shoes I almost always had toe and heel's tipped in metal. Mostly for the click as you walk the protection was an added bonus. . 😘👌 Interesting video 2x👍
Does Annabelle have her own TH-cam channel question? Mark if not you need to feature her just a little bit more in your videosespecially since She is not your sister or wife
Oof mate, you need to get yourself a set of Precision Screwdrivers, those kind are horrible to use! You can get decent set off for like $15 on A m a z o n (had to spell it like that or else it wouldn't post my comment) that have normal full sized handles. 👍👍 You could also snap the spinning piece off of the back of those kind of screwdriver so you can stick them in your drill driver. I've done it before lol.
velociraptors really were small like a dog. The movies needed to make them bigger...could you imagine Jurassic Park with a baby dinosaur as one of the main stars. Just wouldn't work.
Dan, every time I see you using those tiny little screwdrivers it makes my hands hurt in sympathy! Take some of that TH-cam money and get yourself a better screwdriver! For those M2 screws, I believe you will be looking for a PH1 phillips driver. I would suggest something with a larger/thicker handle so you get better torque and better control over just how tight you are making them. It doesn't have to be fancy or expensive, just something that fills your hand more. The whole point of those skinny little screwdrivers you have now is to limit how hard you can twist so you don't over-tighten delicate little screws in a laptop, phone, or something like that. For what you are doing, they are just making your life more difficult! Oh, and if you are going to do Annabelle dirty like that, you've got to give her a chance to clap back! If she is nice enough to put up with your dinosaur dad-jokes, you owe her at least that much.

Just for accuracy, Jurassic Park velociraptors were based off Deinonychus.
Nerd
Jokes on you they were actually emus.
Annebelle is a Hotasaurus Reds. I'll show myself out.
Yes, Annabelle is a mystical goddess, i too will be leaving now.
I love Dan’s ASMR shoe repair videos 😂! Also, I love the relaxed look with the Black Sabbath T-Shirt, shorts white Nike socks, and running shoes. And that park looks nice.
Got to admire Dan for working on Sundays.

...but now I really want to know what the hell this guys eats and his training program...
Really great story there, well
Unfortunate about the flood though!
I’ve missed your videos! Smashing job as always 👏👌

Thanks Dan for letting me live vicariously
Thank you. Great show on a father's day😊

Metal toe plates and a metal shirt. Dig it!
Great stuff! Would love a video on metal heels tips as I'm pretty heavy on my heels and tend to wear them down first! 😅
That’s a Nice Town Tring , the Walk in the Park was Nice Anna 🤙🏾Nicer

Always good to see a new video from you Dan. Great job and the dinosaurs were fun. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Cool here in Nova Scotia. BTW how are the kitties? Welcome back Dan.
I know this is weird, but the asmr of him putting the glove on was amazing.
As a Texan, I appreciate the nod to our Tyrannosaurus Tex!
Nice, and on Father's day.
Ron would have really been afraid of the dinosaurs, I'm glad you didn't bring him along to the park.haha😁
Yeah you owe Annabelle and apology for yelling at her.
🤣

Hello Dan!! Joe from Ft Lauderdale, FL, USA.
Recently found your channel and now I am stuck!! Not only are you a talented cobbler but your gorgeous to look at!! Good Luck with all your endeavours!!
Also LOVE your new car!!!
Ahh Annabelle Red Bull Formula 1 jumper you call it , Speaking of F-1 I’m going to Las Vegas for the First F-1 Race By Caesars Palace , 🤙🏾
Dan! Great to end Sunday with your company and a cuppa, mate
She's a keeper, Dan.
Love seeing your work. Keep up your top quality good work🎉
Hey Dan the cobbler man, have you considered using a skiving knife, rather than a utility knife, to cut the toe plate recess in leather soles?
I understand the premise behind a toe plate but I don't believe I've ever seen a pair of shoes with a worn toe, seen loads with the sole worn right through and the welting worn off but never the toe.
Awesome!! Was looking out for a new episode. Thanks Dan.
So the screws fasten into the welt of the shoe?
Great video - as usual. As for the weight of this dinosaur. Maybe it's the ancestor of birds, and birds have light bones, so I think this dinosaur is light.
Can you put toe plate on when the stitching is through the whole sole?...
Sad to hear about the cobbler school, but fantastic video. I really enjoyed the music!
Jurassic park over did the V raptors for dramatic effect. Sorry!
Now we know why Anabelle crossed the road !
Also: makes you wonder if the dinosaur leather in it's prime would be suitable for making shoes ?
I don't know about Velociraptors but I always wondered what is the flight speed of an unladen swallow?
African or European?
Sound only in right ear when you talk Dan !
Dan - charge for your Lulu toeplates repair please?
The Velociraptors of the movie are actually deinonychus but I was hard to pronounce so in 1993 they were left as Velociraptors
Do people get metal toe plates for the sound?
Not sure how much a velociraptors weighs but the friend is very cute.
Thank you for the video. Very interesting. You are the double of Bear Grylls... or do I need 👓
Get yourself a screwdriver with a bigger handle, they exist with small head too :)
Lol, they exist! I saw that and had the same thought….
Nice watch Dan
Great video... just add though, Lulu are no more. That style of toe plate is made by a firm called Au Lion now..... still French though. Easy to make your own more elegant versions out of brass plate though. ... and it's super cheap.
Is this young lady related to the guy from Project Air Channel? Good video.
What about timber floorboards……..????
Por fin, otro video, que bien
Sabbath!
You clearly love the gym 💪
You work well, shoemaking is also a nice job if you have a sense for it

I wish you would work in a tidy fashion, a small pot on the bench that any offcuts, old tacks, etc, can be placed into for disposal.
Luckily it’s me doing the work so I can work how I like ☺️
Gorgeous 😍
Great video Dan, but there was one thing missing......your catchphrase, so ill say it for you "Let's get sticky" 😂😂 p.s. how is the new house/home, are you all settled in?
Can you fit metal caps to rubber sole? ie. RM williams comfort craftman
Yes you can!
Hi Dan, could I send you my vintage Doc Martins, the sole has passed its best and I'd like it replacing and some tlc
After watching your video I reckon I could do with a heel cap and some yellow stitching too.
What's the most scary dinosaur? The dooyerthinkhesaurus.
What a lovely young lady! Talking about Dan's assistant, not one of the dinosaurs...
Are we going to get more of the Dan workout videos in the near future?
They were smaller....Raptors were more like a large chicken. 25-40kg
I should have waited, my bad!
Hi Dan, I’ve been trying to contact you regarding an order. I am not receiving any response to my emails and cannot get through to you on the phone
On my dress shoes I almost always had toe and heel's tipped in metal. Mostly for the click as you walk the protection was an added bonus. . 😘👌
Interesting video 2x👍
Handy tap shoes huh?
Does Annabelle have her own TH-cam channel question? Mark if not you need to feature her just a little bit more in your videosespecially since She is not your sister or wife
Go Redbull!!
10:17 You mysogenist!😮😮😮😮😊
jeez hope you're joking
Yep
Very nice do like your auntie very nice 😂😂😂👍
Annabelle seems quite nice and you should be kinder to her.
Hi my friend
At last!!
I know nothing about dinosaurs so I'm guessing 30kilos?
Oof mate, you need to get yourself a set of Precision Screwdrivers, those kind are horrible to use! You can get decent set off for like $15 on A m a z o n (had to spell it like that or else it wouldn't post my comment) that have normal full sized handles. 👍👍

I want that shirt 🫠
I love the idea that random people give you, a professional, tips on how to do your job 🤣🤣🤣
velociraptors really were small like a dog. The movies needed to make them bigger...could you imagine Jurassic Park with a baby dinosaur as one of the main stars. Just wouldn't work.
я тоже умею
jurassic park lied. velociraptor was just a little guy. the later discovered Utah Raptor is closer to what they have in jurassic park.
is gaining 100 pounds of muscle a requirement for becoming a cobbler
dad's jokes...
Stop being mean to Annibell
It’s maybe just me, but toe plates look butt ugly! Not on my shoes regardless of them protecting my shoes or not…
I'm guessing between 250 and 350 KG for a Raptor.
You do not have to guess about the weight of dinosaurs, my mother in law weigh approx 70kg.
Dan, every time I see you using those tiny little screwdrivers it makes my hands hurt in sympathy! Take some of that TH-cam money and get yourself a better screwdriver!

Dan, who are you talking to, cos your not looking at us!!!
Is Annabelle your girlfriend Dan you talk so mean to her treat her nice she's 😍🌹
your wife's sister is very beautiful
What do you call a blind dinosaur? A Thinkhesaurus. gay Dino? Megasaurass. Lesbian Dino? Lickalottapus.
