That kid is definitely NOT from a farm, and has no idea how truly terrifying an actual six-foot turkey would be. At a foot and a half tall, they're a menace. At human size, they'd be _lethal_ .
I think few people give credit to just how good an actor the kid is. He remains eye-rollingly complacent until Grant gets his attention with the two fingers "attack" from the side, and then becomes increasingly more terrified as the speech goes on.
I've gone to the natural history museum in Houston a few years back and I saw one of the velociraptor skeletons on display it's very small no bigger than your waistline. However I must admit those claws were still a sight to behold It's front arm claws were as thick as a finger and its toe claws were even bigger the raptors in the movie were much more intimidating but then again that's all cinema the skeleton I saw before me was more intimidating because of how something so small can be so deadly
I know this is like 2 months later, but just felt like clarifying that even though the raptors in Jurassic Park are called Velociraptors, I do believe their looks were based off of Utahraptor to make them more intimidating.
If you wanna know how scary a six foot tall turkey is, go out, find yourself a cassowary, and then punch it. Then, tell me how scared you are of the half-inch-wide five-inch-deep bleeding holes you'll probably get in your stomach as retaliation. Disclaimer: Don't actually go out and fistfight a cassowary. You will lose.
+MCVastDifference I think cassowaries are awesome but yeah if you mess with one, it'll ruin your day. I believe there are some cassowary-related deaths in Australian history.
Yep, Cassowaries unlike an Emu are very, very territorial. They will chase you down if they think you are a threat and proceed to kick the ever living crap out of you.
Despite Grant's theories of T-Rex and Velociraptor being debunked and a product of their time, he was still correct when pointing the similarities between birds and dinosaurs.
I think what would have been more interesting if Owen Grady says a line in Jurassic world "someone once told me 'show a little respect for these animals'" That would have been enough prove that that kid was Owen Grady.
Fiskmåsen [SWE] Since Spinosaurus was more of a river/sea monster and better compared with Deinosuchus or even mosasaurs, it was definitely the wrong dinosaur. Something like Carcharodontosaurus would be a lot better, though T. rex wouldn’t be incapable of killing it and it mostly comes down to whoever bites first. It’s bite is weaker, but its method of causing damage doesn’t need a strong bite to start with, so on an unarmoured opponent like T. rex it should be able to leave devastating/fatal wounds. The thing is there is this tendency to assume tyrannosaurs were superior or that high bite forces are superior, when giant carnosaurs were every bit as lethal, and showing Carcharodontosaurus as being a match for T. rex would go a long way to getting rid of Tyrannomania.
I always loved how the rock formation behind them looks like a raptor head with an eye to the side. It looks like it's watching them. I always wondered if that was on purpose the way it was shot. Made this scene extra eerie to me.

Daniel Ryan The book was a lot better about getting throug a message about science, responsibility and morality though, as well as getting a much more comprehensive view of the park- in the film, it looks like the park is run by half a dozen people. In the book, it's made clear they've got hundreds of staff, and they are actually regaining control of the park toward the end.
@@Greatkingrat88 The book def. had a message, but it was pretty cheap moralizing and lacked any sort of context. I remember Crichton having Ian Malcolm going on about how there's no such thing as "advances" from technology, because women still spent as much time on household chores as they did in the 1930s. "And how much bigger is the average house today?" is the question he didn't both to consider.
When he said "That's when the attack comes, not from the front, but from the side" That was foreshadowing Muldoon's death later in the movie who died in the exact same way Grant described to this kid.
You know what's funny? Grant's explaination is still partially accurate, while velociraptor specifically probably didn't slash its prey's belly open (that's definitley plausible for bigger dromaeosaurs like utahraptor or dakotaraptor tho, since they hunted larger animals), it is still belived it ate its prey alive while using its claws for pinning it to the ground, which i'd argue is an even worse fate than just being torm apart
i think he said it because he wanted to scare the little brat. thats what i took from Ellie´s reaction when he started to explain where the Raptor would "slash"
The velociraptors in both the book and movie were actually supposed to be the Utahsaurus, but Crichton's editors thought velociraptor had a more menacing ring to it.
To be fair, the paleontologists did give the coolest-sounding name for a small member of the family. It's kinda like how there's the lion, tiger, puma, cheetah...and there's the lynx, who despite its badass name is only slightly bigger than a housecat.

"if" being the operative word here. From what I read, the actor...I forget his name...who played this kid in Jurassic Park dismissed that popular rumor and is quoted to have said: "Guys like me don't grow up to be Chris Pratt."
As a guy speaking from experience I never been so scared in my life. I pissed one off at a turkey farm. It screamed at its friends and they all chased me around the pen for a good ten minutes before I finally grew a brain and jumped the railing. The farmer didn't do shit because he saw what I did and decided to teach me the error of my ways.
the kid was wrong it is not 6 feet but 3 feet in height ... grant was also wrong in saying trex has movement based vision trex can see almost as far as a hawk
this scene was so deep, Velociraptor is still to this day 1 of my favorites, I didn't read the book before seeing the movie, I actually read the book years later. the book is oh so much better but the graphics done here were so advanced that this never lost the magic to me. Jurassic Park is the best film in the series in my opinion
I like how this speech mirrors Muldoon's death later in the film. He's so focused on the raptor in front of him, he doesn't even notice the raptor that comes from the side....the one he didn't even know was there....
Oh, this is one of my favorite scenes. Sam Neil as Dr. Alan Grant was a great -- arguably perfect -- actor cast for this role, and in the end, Dr. Grant might seem to have this appearance as a good guy hero, but this is Sam Neil we're talking about, and if you've seen him in other movies (The Omen, Event Horizon, The Maw of Madness, etc.), then you know just how devious this man really is -- making this scene just all the better. That being said, the real Velociraptors were actually about the size of a medium dog, were covered in feathers (not scales), only used the hind claw on their feet as a weapon and really only ever hunted in groups when necessary (such as killing larger prey, but they preferred protoceratops). The Raptors in Jurassic Park are actually based on the raptor Deinonychus, which is a little more appropriate, but the Austroraptor and Utahraptors are more what we would associate as being closest to the raptors from Jurassic Park (and yes, it is highly suggested that they all had feathers).
Hermaeus Mora Its honestly impressive how he made this character so easy to empathize with, given his record. I believe they were actually using Utah Raptor's for the model here, not velociraptors
Hermaeus Mora Sorry but Protoceratops is larger prey (it's 10 times as big). It was almost certainly a regular item but not a particularly safe or easy one.
One thing they did get right, though, is that raptors started to eat their prey while they were still alive. The main hypothesis, known as the "Raptor Restraint Model," holds that raptors would use their signature claws to pin down their prey, then flap their wings to stabilize themselves as they chowed down, and the prey animal would slowly die of blood loss as it was eaten piece by piece. Which, honestly, sounds like a really nasty way to die. So, you know... show a little respect.
Mark my words, in Jurassic World Dominion Owen will introduce himself to Alan: "Ehy mister Grant, maybe you don't remember me but i was the kid you tried to dismember with the velociraptor claw before the Jurassic Park event."
Yeah I expect, no, I hope this is one theory they actually make cannon. It makes sense for why Owen respects the raptors and that kid was only credit as Volunteer Boy, so with all that they so could make this happen. Owen could show Dr. Grant how he managed to not only respect raptors but train them in the way he did when bonding with Blue
I ran this movie at a drive-in when it came out-and 29 years later, I STILL laugh my head off watching the change in the kid’s attitude during the lecture.
And Jurassic World continues the trend, despite further knowledge that raptors indeed resembled birds and had feathers. The original can be forgiven since in 1993 feathers on raptors were not discovered yet, but come on, Mr. Trevorrow. It's been over 22 years.
+Piggy Oink Oink Well to be fair, there is an explanation to that. (Spoilers), in Jurassic world, Dr Wu said that they can make the dinosaurs more scientifically accurate. But because the board fears that the crowds would hate them in the same levels as any new Star Wars project. So they keep to the traditional look to prevent stepping on people's toes.
Really it's entirely possible they ARE dinosaurs as advertised.... The problem is since there is so much genetic manipulation going on just to make them work they are more like a sub species of dinosaur. A modern cousin like how an elephant is to the mammoth and mastodon.
legomaniac films I know it's just a fan theory, but hey, the director hasn't gone out and debunked it, so... let people's head canons be a little bit richer.
I love the theory that this is Chris Pratt's character. Owen learned some serious shit that day, grew a backbone, and learned how to work with raptors. That's so damn cool...
Pat TheRedman YNWA Yes really, kids call the cops on mom and dad for yelling to loud when trying to get the kid to fucking do something other than stare into the phone all day. Child abuse is so abused it's unreal.
You missed the last seconds of this film, but the kid looks back at the camera with the funniest: 'Dafuq I just hear??' look plastered all over his face.
The kid's eyes were wide opened when he first saw a raptor claw which big and intimidating. The kid must have been scared the sh** out of the big raptor claw! lol!
Even though some of the stuff Grant says is outdated (T. rex vision being based on movement and pack-hunting raptors using their sickle claws to slash) his point still stands even to this day. Just because these animals looked like birds doesn't make them any less dangerous.
If we ever see alan and owen meet in jurassic world 3 i hope for a scene where owen is wide eye and says"i know you!" Then alan goes " six foot turkey, huh?" Then that would be proof enough.
@@sladelutz3228 it's Official!!! Alan, Ellie, and Ian. will be returning in Jurassic world 3 even Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello are willing to return to play Lex and Tim grown up in Jurassic World 3
Kudos that this kid went to the middle of the desert to an archeological digsite doing a demonstration on dinosaur bones to give his theory, most of us just go on some subreddit
When I was a kid I thought those slashing sounds were him actually cutting him, and I never understood why the kid didn't bleed or his top didn't tear 😭
I’m not a film studies student, but this scene seems genius to me. Think of how many important points are established in such a such time: Grant is the lead palaeontologist on the site (everyone listens to him) Some Dinosaurs are more closely related to birds than reptiles (this was not well established in the publics eye before this films release, so is pretty critical) Grant is not good with children. Trex has vision based on movement (important to establish early as they’ve taken liberties) Velociraptor is not limited in this way. Velociraptor is perhaps a superior hunter to trex (hinted at elsewhere in the film too). They also hunt in packs and have large claws on their feet. Finally, he foreshadows the death of the hunter perfectly (not from the front, but from the side... you didn’t even know it was there)
Tragic irony: The original Jurassic Park was very much promoting the scientific discovery that Dinosaurs are the ancestors of modern day birds. Today's audience says: "Fuck You, science! I want my reptilian movie monsters, not those raptors with feathers like a bunch of six foot turkeys!" -In other words, that little fat kid grew up. I think his name is Bob Chipman.
Barbara Gordon I don't see that as tragic at all. There's nothing wrong with liking a less scientific representation of a prehistoric animal when it comes to fiction. (For the record: I loathe the idea of feathered dinosaurs.)
Ragitsu That last sentence, I was totally not expecting that (/s) btw don't you mean the fact? because since we have fossils of lots of species preserving feathers, species ancestral to famous ones like Velociraptor and the like, it is a fact not an idea, that they (coelurosaurs at least) were feathered. I assume you are ok with the mammoth in this movie. www.killerreviews.com/staff_review.php?movieid=20957
HoveringAboveMyself No, I don't mean "the fact'. Whether real-life actually dinosaurs had feathers or not does not interest me when it comes to my enjoyment of fictional material that contains them. By the same token, I do not care about real-life physics when a Hollywood Hero is catapulted through the air in a car that could never had made the jump depicted on screen, or real-life biology when a cure for a an evil organization's designer virus works nearly instantaneously. P.S. Scientific notions change all the time. I'd treat science less like a religion and more like a useful tool that should always be rationally examined.
Ragitsu When the fossils showing feathers are actually there for everyone to see there's nothing to rationalize, there's nothing to interpret, it is as much a fact as the fact that modern dinosaurs (birds) are feathered or do you really think that if you look at a bird from a certain angle or with a certain mindset it'll suddenly won't have feathers anymore? Wherever you like feathers in fictional representations of these real animals has nothing to do with the fact that they had them and that's the issue I had with your comment, you called it an "idea", a pretty obvious (if maybe not deliberate) attempt to ignore or deny all the evidence we have of dinosaurian body covering. You can prefer your JP "dinosaurs" all you want but don't go around telling people that feathered dinosaurs is nothing more than an idea that's subject to change.
I first saw Jurassic Park when I was ten and afterwards I remember reenacting this scene to my little sister, with me being Grant and her being the kid. She got so scared just visualizing being ripped apart and eaten by dinosaurs that she started screaming and crying, and my parents punished me for terrifying my baby sister. Still have no regrets.
So, is it true that this boy one day becomes *Owen Grady*? I never thought of it, but seems plausible and I only heard some people tell that, including in the comments for this video...
@@virgoleo81 You're right! :) Chris Pratt himself has denied this: www.looper.com/59646/chris-pratt-jurassic-world-park-theory-owen/ But I think Alan doesn't call him by name, he tells the kid the raptor "doesn't bother to bite your jugular like a lion...": www.imdb.com/title/tt0107290/characters/nm0381035
Either this kid has never faced a turkey before, or he has and isn't afraid of them. Either way, dromeaosaurs ("raptors") are more than just bird-looking. They will actually kill you (especially the big ones).
I don't know if it's true that this kid is Owen from Jurassic World. Weird coincidence is that he kind of looks like Owen as a younger child also he has the same perspective about raptors relationship which is based on respect. So is it really a coincidence?
I would be deathly afraid of a six-foot turkey. Seriously, think about that for a second
There is a scene from the 70s classic "Food Of The Gods" with a 6-8 foot rooster. freaked me out as a kid..
Yeah, that’s basically a cassowary
Richard Harris What's wrong with a 6ft turkey that means more turkey in thanksgiving
When you take into account that it's a 6ft turkey that can flung at you, use their claw and peck you.
Same. Shit, I'm afraid of regular sized turkey's
That kid is definitely NOT from a farm, and has no idea how truly terrifying an actual six-foot turkey would be. At a foot and a half tall, they're a menace. At human size, they'd be _lethal_ .

Sam Neil as Dr. Alan Grant was a great -- arguably perfect -- actor cast for this role, and in the end, Dr. Grant might seem to have this appearance as a good guy hero, but this is Sam Neil we're talking about, and if you've seen him in other movies (The Omen, Event Horizon, The Maw of Madness, etc.), then you know just how devious this man really is -- making this scene just all the better.
That being said, the real Velociraptors were actually about the size of a medium dog, were covered in feathers (not scales), only used the hind claw on their feet as a weapon and really only ever hunted in groups when necessary (such as killing larger prey, but they preferred protoceratops). The Raptors in Jurassic Park are actually based on the raptor Deinonychus, which is a little more appropriate, but the Austroraptor and Utahraptors are more what we would associate as being closest to the raptors from Jurassic Park (and yes, it is highly suggested that they all had feathers).
Hermaeus Mora Its honestly impressive how he made this character so easy to empathize with, given his record. I believe they were actually using Utah Raptor's for the model here, not velociraptors
Hermaeus Mora Sorry but Protoceratops is larger prey (it's 10 times as big).
It was almost certainly a regular item but not a particularly safe or easy one.
One thing they did get right, though, is that raptors started to eat their prey while they were still alive. The main hypothesis, known as the "Raptor Restraint Model," holds that raptors would use their signature claws to pin down their prey, then flap their wings to stabilize themselves as they chowed down, and the prey animal would slowly die of blood loss as it was eaten piece by piece. Which, honestly, sounds like a really nasty way to die. So, you know... show a little respect.
Hermaeus Mora Harrison Ford was actually the first choice to play Alan Grant, but Ford turned down the role and it was given to Sam Neill instead.
They were the size of a chicken not a dog.
This is my favorite Jurassic Park scene ever. It’s just great acting and his speech scares me. He would be my favorite history teacher ever lol.
From that day on, the boy vowed to treat all dinosaurs with respect and caution.
Damn. Cut out the best part at the end where the kid turns with a completely shocked look on his face.
1:39 It's a relationship based on respect.
ik what you did there
HA! GAAAAAAAAAAAYYY!!!!!!
Mark my words, in Jurassic World Dominion Owen will introduce himself to Alan: "Ehy mister Grant, maybe you don't remember me but i was the kid you tried to dismember with the velociraptor claw before the Jurassic Park event."
Yeah I expect, no, I hope this is one theory they actually make cannon. It makes sense for why Owen respects the raptors and that kid was only credit as Volunteer Boy, so with all that they so could make this happen. Owen could show Dr. Grant how he managed to not only respect raptors but train them in the way he did when bonding with Blue
I ran this movie at a drive-in when it came out-and 29 years later, I STILL laugh my head off watching the change in the kid’s attitude during the lecture.
"More like a six foot turkey"
Chance: Ah! It's Birdzilla! I swear I'll never eat a McNugget again!
"Let me ask ya something kid - you ever go hunting turkey?"
"Yea."
"You ever see the turkey hunt back?"
kind of gets you thinking though, what that delicious piece of fried chicken you eat used to be 65 millions years ago
A bigger, significantly more dangerous, equally delicious piece of free-range fried chicken.
hitskwaad
One that would have eaten you if given the chance.
I would certainly love to eat fried T.Rex.
"Well maybe dinosaurs have more in common with present-day birds than they do with reptiles" (movie makes dinosaurs look like giant iguanas)
And Jurassic World continues the trend, despite further knowledge that raptors indeed resembled birds and had feathers. The original can be forgiven since in 1993 feathers on raptors were not discovered yet, but come on, Mr. Trevorrow. It's been over 22 years.
+Piggy Oink Oink Well to be fair, there is an explanation to that. (Spoilers), in Jurassic world, Dr Wu said that they can make the dinosaurs more scientifically accurate. But because the board fears that the crowds would hate them in the same levels as any new Star Wars project. So they keep to the traditional look to prevent stepping on people's toes.
+Patrick Donnolley As Alan Grant in JP3 said, "They are not real dinosaurs, just genetically-engineered theme park monsters."
Really it's entirely possible they ARE dinosaurs as advertised.... The problem is since there is so much genetic manipulation going on just to make them work they are more like a sub species of dinosaur. A modern cousin like how an elephant is to the mammoth and mastodon.
Birds are not only related to dinosaurs, they ARE dinosaurs.
This scene has more science than most high school & college biology classes. (Most "dinosaur" skeletons were likely bird related...)
Ikr, even if it's outdated, some of his points still stand.
In 1993 this movie was just unbelievable in the cinema. Thanks for this experience Steven Spielberg. One of the best films of all time.
The scene reveals exactly the fate of Robert Muldoon when he chased the raptor, which lured him so that the second raptor could surprise him.
Hi, Owen.
That's not him
legomaniac films
I know it's just a fan theory, but hey, the director hasn't gone out and debunked it, so... let people's head canons be a little bit richer.
The actor who was chosen before Chris Pratt was intended to play Owen Grady who they confirmed to be this kid
Christian Malecki if anything the kid is the old man who wants to use the raptors as weapons.
BlackTddyBear Good one.
I love the theory that this is Chris Pratt's character. Owen learned some serious shit that day, grew a backbone, and learned how to work with raptors. That's so damn cool...
This would be considered a child abuse in 2015... Oh the good old times.
Jacinto Gear would it? would it really?
Pat TheRedman YNWA Yes really, kids call the cops on mom and dad for yelling to loud when trying to get the kid to fucking do something other than stare into the phone all day. Child abuse is so abused it's unreal.
nah
+Jacinto Gear Oh come on, you're telling me you wouldn't stick that raptor claw up Alan's ass if you caught him talking like that to your kid?
Proving my point right there.
I like how dramatic Grant is in this scene. However, it’s exactly what the scene NEEDED! 😁
One of my all-time favorite scenes of this movie. That kid got put in his place
This is me teaching my friends why birds are dinosaurs.
Anyone else here because of that theory that this little boy is Chris Pratt's character from jurassic world as a kid?
Lol ye
Chances are that this kid may appear as adult in the next movie, Owen? Naaah.
Never understood why that theory was a thing since Alan calls the kid Jacky.
You missed the last seconds of this film, but the kid looks back at the camera with the funniest: 'Dafuq I just hear??' look plastered all over his face.
A 6 ft turkey?! It'd b scared of that
12 turkeys disliked this.
Lol 😂
Lol😂😂😂
I bet they thought turkeys could fly
He basically foreshadowed Muldoon's death.
i love how the kid's eyes grow when he sees the claw.
I love the fact that some fans think that this annoying kid will turn out to be Owen Grady (Chris Pratt's character). 😂
The kid's eyes were wide opened when he first saw a raptor claw which big and intimidating. The kid must have been scared the sh** out of the big raptor claw! lol!
the fuck'r you talking about willys
Even though some of the stuff Grant says is outdated (T. rex vision being based on movement and pack-hunting raptors using their sickle claws to slash) his point still stands even to this day. Just because these animals looked like birds doesn't make them any less dangerous.
I mean honestly we'll never really know just how dangerous they truly were,who knows maybe that will be debunked in a few years time
Exactly, my family has bred couple of chickens and holy shit are they feral
Little Owen Grady
If we ever see alan and owen meet in jurassic world 3 i hope for a scene where owen is wide eye and says"i know you!" Then alan goes " six foot turkey, huh?" Then that would be proof enough.
@@sladelutz3228 it's Official!!! Alan, Ellie, and Ian. will be returning in Jurassic world 3 even Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello are willing to return to play Lex and Tim grown up in Jurassic World 3
slade Lutz I WANT TO SEE THAT SO BAD!
Kudos that this kid went to the middle of the desert to an archeological digsite doing a demonstration on dinosaur bones to give his theory, most of us just go on some subreddit
I love this scene 😂😍
Dr. Grant is one of the best characters 😊
No, the kid didn't grow up to be the annoying hero of Jurassic World. He grew up to be the producer of Jurassic World.
Tareltonlives A lot of people, including myself, didn't find him annoying...
Good for you
How is he the producer?
I love how the smartass got what he deserved, but goddamn did Grant have to turn into a serial killer to exlpain it. Traumatizing!
Sattler saying "Here we go" implies that this isn't the first kid Grant has traumatized with this speech.
Long story short: Never insult a paleontologist's favorite dinosaur. They will give you nightmares about it.
My mom ran into this kid several years later, and when she brought up this scene, he said with annoyance, “My mom got me that role…” 😆
Grant humbled that kid 😁
Plot twist that kid is now Owen and just wanted to prove they are giant turkeys
“That doesn't look very scary, more like a six-foot turkey”
Fun fact: The kid here is also the voice of Hyp from the land before time.
Who'd bully other dinosaurs smaller than him! And that installment had raptors!
That's pretty ironic.
His face is priceless
And he just stares right back.
Is kindof creepy how during this scene the only other noise is these bird calls.
When I was a kid I thought those slashing sounds were him actually cutting him, and I never understood why the kid didn't bleed or his top didn't tear 😭
I’m not a film studies student, but this scene seems genius to me. Think of how many important points are established in such a such time:
Grant is the lead palaeontologist on the site (everyone listens to him)
Some Dinosaurs are more closely related to birds than reptiles (this was not well established in the publics eye before this films release, so is pretty critical)
Grant is not good with children.
Trex has vision based on movement (important to establish early as they’ve taken liberties)
Velociraptor is not limited in this way.
Velociraptor is perhaps a superior hunter to trex (hinted at elsewhere in the film too). They also hunt in packs and have large claws on their feet.
Finally, he foreshadows the death of the hunter perfectly (not from the front, but from the side... you didn’t even know it was there)
Dig site kid voices a Land Before Time sequel character two years later...
Punk kid: "It looks like a 6 foot turkey"
Alan: "I'm about to end this man's whole career"
Tragic irony: The original Jurassic Park was very much promoting the scientific discovery that Dinosaurs are the ancestors of modern day birds. Today's audience says: "Fuck You, science! I want my reptilian movie monsters, not those raptors with feathers like a bunch of six foot turkeys!" -In other words, that little fat kid grew up. I think his name is Bob Chipman.
Exactly, that kid = every single Jurassic Park fanboy today.
Barbara Gordon
I don't see that as tragic at all. There's nothing wrong with liking a less scientific representation of a prehistoric animal when it comes to fiction.
(For the record: I loathe the idea of feathered dinosaurs.)
Ragitsu That last sentence, I was totally not expecting that (/s)
btw don't you mean the fact? because since we have fossils of lots of species preserving feathers, species ancestral to famous ones like Velociraptor and the like, it is a fact not an idea, that they (coelurosaurs at least) were feathered.
I assume you are ok with the mammoth in this movie. www.killerreviews.com/staff_review.php?movieid=20957
HoveringAboveMyself
No, I don't mean "the fact'. Whether real-life actually dinosaurs had feathers or not does not interest me when it comes to my enjoyment of fictional material that contains them.
By the same token, I do not care about real-life physics when a Hollywood Hero is catapulted through the air in a car that could never had made the jump depicted on screen, or real-life biology when a cure for a an evil organization's designer virus works nearly instantaneously.
P.S. Scientific notions change all the time. I'd treat science less like a religion and more like a useful tool that should always be rationally examined.
Ragitsu
When the fossils showing feathers are actually there for everyone to see there's nothing to rationalize, there's nothing to interpret, it is as much a fact as the fact that modern dinosaurs (birds) are feathered or do you really think that if you look at a bird from a certain angle or with a certain mindset it'll suddenly won't have feathers anymore?
Wherever you like feathers in fictional representations of these real animals has nothing to do with the fact that they had them and that's the issue I had with your comment, you called it an "idea", a pretty obvious (if maybe not deliberate) attempt to ignore or deny all the evidence we have of dinosaurian body covering.
You can prefer your JP "dinosaurs" all you want but don't go around telling people that feathered dinosaurs is nothing more than an idea that's subject to change.
that kid looks like Jake Gyllenhaal.
Remind you that Jurassic Park was quite aware of how birdlike dinosaurs actually were.
me looking for dinosaur videos:
TH-cam:time for videos that are ten years old!
Maybe that'll teach the kid to Respect his Elders !!!
Ryan Jablonski no it will teach him to respect something that doesn't look dangerous
This is actually an extremely underrated comment and you deserve more praise for it XD
Thanks I Appreciate it, watching Jurassic World and looking back on this, I thought that Owen Grady was the Grown Up Version of this Little Brat !!!
Wow so if this kid is really Owen Grady, Why hasn't puberty changed me like that ?!
Sentiment shared!
Well Chris Pratt did use to be a chubby boy named Andy on Park's and Recreation. And look at how muscular he is today.
It's not. If you listen to the video Alan calls the kid Jacky
I first saw Jurassic Park when I was ten and afterwards I remember reenacting this scene to my little sister, with me being Grant and her being the kid. She got so scared just visualizing being ripped apart and eaten by dinosaurs that she started screaming and crying, and my parents punished me for terrifying my baby sister. Still have no regrets.
I friggen LOVED this scene, I crack up everytime I see this!
I think I would've cried.
Did anyone else hear Ellie say, "Oh, no. Here we go," 0:26-0:30?
Mimi Mancer That's actually what she said.
The kids eyes when he reveals the massive claw
Kid: being obnoxious
Dr Grant: I’m about to end this kid’s whole career
Alan y Owen!!!
So, is it true that this boy one day becomes *Owen Grady*? I never thought of it, but seems plausible and I only heard some people tell that, including in the comments for this video...
Nah, it's a fan theory. One that I can support, though. :)
"becomes OWEN GRADY" wtf. HE IS OWEN GRADY (if the theory is true)
Not true. Alan calls the kid Jacky in this scene.
@@virgoleo81 You're right! :) Chris Pratt himself has denied this: www.looper.com/59646/chris-pratt-jurassic-world-park-theory-owen/
But I think Alan doesn't call him by name, he tells the kid the raptor "doesn't bother to bite your jugular like a lion...":
www.imdb.com/title/tt0107290/characters/nm0381035
I do like how Grant kept a velociraptor claw on him at all times.
always loved the sound of the eagle in the background. That really sells the ambience to me
Either this kid has never faced a turkey before, or he has and isn't afraid of them. Either way, dromeaosaurs ("raptors") are more than just bird-looking. They will actually kill you (especially the big ones).
I don't know if it's true that this kid is Owen from Jurassic World. Weird coincidence is that he kind of looks like Owen as a younger child also he has the same perspective about raptors relationship which is based on respect. So is it really a coincidence?
