Its crazy to think iguanadon lived from the late jurassic to the early cretaceous period. Also one of my favorite dinosaurs growing up it was if I remember correctly my third favorite right behind pachyrhinosaurus and my favorite dinosaur of all time therizenosaurus.

Iguanodon also had a prehensile pinky that acted much like our thumbs, and the middle three fingers were 'hooved,' to serve the animal when it went about on all fours. Good video, sir! You need many more subs.

“Act dumb, get the thumb.” - Iguanodon

The way these animals were depicted in Walking with Dinosaurs was down right CRIMINAL! As big as they were I highly doubt the Utahraptor being able to take down a bull Iguanodon 😒

Bernissart (Belgium), where Iguanodon fossiles were found, has changed a lot meanwhile. The seaside is now about 100 km away, there are no mountains (only hills) and no tropical forest either. The fossiles can be seen in a museum in Brussels.

Yes,the predecessor of hadrosaurs found in China , Equijubus is closely related to iguanodon.

People have to remember our knowledge of Dinosaurs was quite limited during those early years of paleontology and we didn't know these giant creatures existed till a doctor and his wife found those first Iguanodon fossils lying on the side of a road though they were only fragmentary accept for the teeth and that was why the first Iguanodons were thought to be giant lizards resembling the iguanas and the same with the first Megalosaurus fossils and with the first depictions of Iguanodons they were made to look like oversized Iguanas and that thumb spike was put on the nose it was only later when more complete skeletons were discovered that changed people's views of this iconic dinosaur and that we didn't know they were related to birds yet which is why the earliest drawings of dinosaurs showed them as lumbering giants that dragged they're tails on the ground and the Tyrannosaurus Rex was originally depicted standing upright till it was redone the way we see it now since it was discovered if the T-Rex walked like that it would just be breaking it's own back and that people now know dinosaurs were caring nurturing parents that looked after their young including the predatory dinosaurs since the discoveries of fossilized bone beds containing predatory dinosaurs of all ages from babies upto full grown adults so for plant eating dinosaurs imagine it one T-Rex is bad enough but a pack of them is every dinosaurs worst nightmare.

Iguanodons were probably blinding predators with those thumb spikes

“Talk dumb, you get the *thumb*”

This dinosaur is the embodiment of that thumb guy from Ratatouille

Me: Gives thumbs up. Iguanodon: THEEZ R THUMBS. U BEEN THUMBERSTRUCK !!

You used the scene where Kron used his thumb spike to slash Aladar’s chest

Successful indeed.

If we compare non-avian dinosaurs to birds then the iguanadon’s thumb spikes would be equivalent to a turkey’s spurs.

Incredible that scientists still don't know that Iguanodons used their thumbs to hitch rides.

We now know the origins of the ancient "thumb wars".

Eh, no. You got it all wrong. For some 200 years, Iguanodon was used as a wastebasket taxon, with various Early Cretaceous ornithopod fossils (often fragmentary and undiagnostic ones) being lumped into it, but extensive research in the 2000s narrowed down its geographic and geological range to just the Barremian of England, Iberia, Germany, and Belgium, while the fossils from North America, Asia and even the older fossils from England (dating to the very start of the Cretaceous) were all reclassified as distinct iguanodont genera (Barilium, Dakotadon, Owenodon, etc.) There is no controversy about their classification, and you're just parroting an outdated notion about Iguanodon being widespread and highly successful. Ask any paleontologist and they'll say the same thing as me.
