Nice Video, way to go.

It's explained in the book, but not in the movie, that the park is very badly managed. Nearly everything is automated (so Hammond doesn't have to pay engineers and technicians) with little to no redundancy or double-checking and each one comes back to bite the protagonists in the ass. Nedry wrote the ENTIRE source code running those automated systems with no oversight and since Hammond underpaid him and threatened his career if he walked, he took Biosyn's deal to steal the embryos. The park has a motion-tracking dinosaur counter that's programmed to tell its monitor if there are X number of dinosaurs in case any die or get lost; characters looking at the code discover that it stops counting after it reaches X and when they rewrite the code to find the true number, the counter comes back over twice the desired number, which reveals that the dinosaurs have been reproducing out-of-control the entire time. The power grid is so poorly setup that a single generator runs the entire fence system plus the telephones and the main breaker box is kept halfway across the island from the control centre. The guest vehicles have no manual controls in case of power failure, leading to long waits for recovery even without dinosaurs running rampant. Basically, Hammond built the park on Isla Nublar because any other jurisdiction would have forced him to comply with workplace safety standards that could have prevented the disaster in the first place.

Something to point out however: Utahraptors COULD get up to 6 feet tall, however they were actually a bit larger than the Velociraptors in the film, which were based on Deinonychus (Michael Crichton, the original writer of the book, just thought that the name Velociraptor sounded cooler, and justified this in the book by explaining it with an outdated hypothesis that suggested that the two species, Velociraptor and Deinonychus, were in the same genus, which is most likely false). However, Deinonychus itself was still a bit small compared to the raptors in the film, which seem to be closest in size to the other dromaeosaurs Dakotaraptor and Achillobator.

Fun thing is the dino books i had in the 80ies had already feathers on the raptors plus in the 90ies was it mainstream, but the producers of jurassic park though feathers on the dinos would make them less scary, i bet they have never had run in to an angry turkey or canadian goose.

yeah I wish creators would stop harping on this as if the author meant Mongoliensis. They even dug up the skeleton in Montana for God's sake.

16:45 This is actually explained in the book! Its mentioned several times that there are moats behind the fences as an added protection. The Tyrannosaurus simply crossed over it when knocking the fence down. Not a very effective moat, but I guess it plays into the entire idea of Jurassic Park being extremely underprepared and overconfidant.

Looking back at Jurassic Park, it's is incredible the discoveries we've made in, like, 30 years. It is freaking incredible.

I'm just saying, from the 4 years I spent working as a groundskeeper at our local zoo and the 29 years I've watched and assisted my mother during her years as a regular keeper, the initial scene from that film always felt a little too close to how things actually work for my liking. Especially around the gorillas and the lions. Elephants too for that matter. There might be pulleys but I gotta tell you that's a very very modern and recent event. There was a long period, I'm talking years here, where to let the lions back in from their enclosure involved you unlocking a door, leaving it cracked, then hauling ass up a stairwell knowing damn well all it would take is one of them hopping down into the moat and touching that door to realize it was open and then they were right up the stairs behind you and on your back before you finished the climb. If you got to the top you had another door with a pulley to open the chute for them to enter the pen, but until you got to the top the only thing between you and a pair of lionesses which had deliberately killed their mother by smacking her down into the moat and then eating her alive was a big cat's lack of curiosity. That scene scared me as a kid and my young adult years working there only reinforced it. Glad I keep the grounds of a golf course now instead. Much less dangerous.

15:30 Dr Ian Malcolm takes advantage of the chaos to kill the lawyer who abandoned the kids. His action was spontaneous, emotionally driven, and poorly planned leading him to underestimate the rex and get slammed into the wall. When he was found injured, he was considered a victim.

Just a note on precordial thumps: I have been an RN for 25 yrs, and am state certified to train the trainer for ARC First Aid/CPR, as well as teach the classes. The indication for it is only for monitored ventricular tachycardia where a defibrillator isn't available. The person performing it must know exactly how much force to apply and where. Even when done correctly, the chance is high that the person's cardiac rhythm may deteriorate or they may go into asystole, so it's important that they are surrounded by medical professionals who are prepared to deal with that. Don't attempt to perform the procedure unless you are positive that it is ventricular tachycardia, which you can't know unless they're hooked up to an EKG or a defibrillator reading their cardiac rhythm. A defibrillator will automatically analyze and perform the shock. If you aren't medically trained in the procedure, then you won't be covered by the Good Samaritan law if you injure the person, or worse.

The T Rex's eyesight is actually acute, unless they engineered Rexy to be myopic and near sighted. Not only that, their sense of smell was far better than most dogs, so not only would standing still not deter her, but also the kids and grant having sweating profusely in fear, would smell.

It wasn’t really addressed in the first movie, but the book does talk about the fact that the what they created weren’t dinosaurs in the purest sense because they had been modified so much in order to make them viable. I always thought that was a missed opportunity. It does come up in the first Jurassic World.

Fun fact: the "cardiac thump" aka Precordial thump mentioned at 29:00 originated in 1970, after a patient in an ambulance was returned to normal heart rhythm after the vehicle hit a pothole. As mentioned, it is almost never used now that we have defibrillators and CPR.

The cardiac thump! I didn't know there was a name for it. But when grandma was a younger woman, her elderly neighbor's husband had a heart attack. The EMTs came and tried to bring him back but weren't able. His wife pounded on his chest. "Jerry! I'm not done with you yet!" He came to, and they lived happily for several more years. Relationship goals right there.

The film producers had already decided on using velociraptor as the primary villian species but the species utahraptor was discovered just as filming began. The palentologist they were using called the studio to let them the species with the size they were using had been found.

This is why they're much larger than IRL velociraptors and why Dr Grant is digging them up in Montana instead of Mongolia.

It always seemed funny to me that that one guy said they wanted to produce raptors for military use, especially when he personally witnessed their handler barely maintaining control over them, and even he wasn't able to fully suppress their nature

Frankly, even as a kid i realized that the park was stupidly undermanaged and staffed (something that could have avoided all of this going wrong) Living near a theme park myself, i knew even from a young age that these places needed A LOT of people behind the scenes to not only keep everything running...this is not including what is implied both a hote, and effectively a zoo alongside other attractions. Like even with a stupid large team of sanitation staff the place can sometimes be a mess at the park i go to, let alone something on this scale...to assume everything would have been automated to the extent in the film was kinda dumb even to little kid me (between the wonder and enjoyment the film gives) Honestly, what i always found more insulting was the direction of jurassic world and the logic behind the "hybrid" dinos..."guys, people are no longer interested/awwed by normal dinos...lets create some absolute mutants to wow them" I bluntly just facepalmed at that moment and groaned in theater "why do zoos still exist then? Why are wildlife excursions still a thing?" Before i shut up remembering i was in a theater. Like seriously though...if people will pay money to travel and look at normal animals that we have doccumented and studied for years, some of which have broadly dispersed populations avalible at all sorts of other similar favilities...whom wouldn't pay to travel to a place to see beasts that haven't set foot on this earth in millions of years (even if modified to hell considering the original nature of the dinos), hell you can even make potential "sub-species" that do look closer to either popular culture or the hypothetical scientifically accurate image (like imagine a section of the park which shows feathered versions of dinos) Sorry for the rant...its just dumb whenever i remember where this franchise i loved as a kid has gone.

He still achieved his ambition of making his flea circus that people could actually touch, but it was still a lie.

I was eight when this movie came out, and as an amateur little paleontologist/ dino expert, it was the greatest thing that ever happened to my eyes haha. by the time I was ten I’d seen the movie a half dozen times and read the novel twice - although a lot of the dry (and now poorly-aged) science chapters went over my head, I put my whole heart and soul into trying to wrap my head around it all :)

The lysine contingency plan is also a bit weird to bring up at that time in the movie, because it would take days for the dinos to feel the effects of the lack of lysine. Hammond's answer "there are people dying out there" kinda responds to that particular point, but it is a bit unclear.

"What about the lysine contingency? We could try to make that make sense". "That is absolutely out of the question". Lol. So glad you made a video better explaining why this wouldn't work. I really enjoyed it

Thanks for making this video - I always thought the Lysine Contingency was to stop the dinosaurs from being stolen, because anyone taking them wouldn't know they need specific food.

The goal is to prevent then to survive on the mainland.

The " cardiac thump" or, more properly , the precordial thump, has long been part of cardiac arrest protocols( though, some areas have removed it of late, for weird reasons) . Not the " last resort" so much as a " we don't have a defibrillator" resort. It only has application in cardiac arrests with ventricular tachycardia / ventricular tachycardia as the cardiac rhythm .

I love the art of hippos based on bones compared to real hippos. They would probably have a lower body count if they looked like that because they would look intimidating instead of adorable.

The funny thing about the reasons used in Jurassic Park and Jurassic World Dominion for how the dinosaurs breed is that parthenogenesis has been documented in reptiles and birds. So even perfectly cloned dinosaurs could potentially do it in rare situations

Funnily enough if parthenogenesis occurs by halfcloning and the dinosaurs have ZW sex determination then you can produce male and female half clones that could establish breeding.

So now that we know Dino’s had feathers, some people think we put the T-Rex’s arms on backwards. When you compare the bone structure to that of an ostrich, it looks remarkably similar. So they have have had huge ostrich like wings.

28:44 That’s because you have to scream, “DON’T YOU DIE ON ME!!” while you do it or else it won’t be effective.

I always found that scene when they talk about the lyscine contingency odd, at least at the end part of it. Now I understand your explanation of the fallacy of this contingency but if we just look at the scene for what it was its weird just by itself. Samuel L. Jackson is describing what they say will happen if they go with that plan and says the dinos will die the Hammond dramatically responds by saying "people are dying." Then there is a pause and they all go with Hammonds plan, but I probably would have been like, "yeah I know that dude that's why we should take out the dinos."

I think the implication was that the lysine contingency would take too long and they needed something immediate.

There's a KZreadr I follow named Klayton Fioriti who does many video topics about Jurassic Park and dinosaurs, both from the franchise and actual dinosaurs. You should consider looking him up as his videos are interesting and he also goes into detail about the original novels written by Michael Crichton.

I ALWAYS wondered why parthenogenesis was never brought up. Plenty of reptiles have had partho babies, and who know what all was added to the DNA. That was always my thought as an adult.

27:15 I once tried to pull a similar joke on some of my cousins. For Christmas we were out at one of our grandmother's farmland properties in rural Australia, where Kangaroos were an issue for their vegetable garden. To help solve it, they setup a simple electric fence around the garden, which they would usually turn off when they had guests around. On this particular day of all days, they had forgotten to turn it off. The fence was the sort that ticks on and off, but we didn't know if it was turned on. Cousins asked if it was switched on, i grabbed it to test and pretended to be electrocuted. After a second i said "Nah, just k-" and then got blasted by the fence because i was still holding it. Jumped a few meters back and fell on my ass. I had thought that i was Grant, but i turned out to be Timmy.

I always wondered about the cliff thing in the rex cage too. Apparantly it's actually a concrete moat that sits between the enclosure and the fence itself and because of camera angles it's never really seen

There is a hill that cones up to the fence where they fed it the goat. It's just a small hill that bypasses the moat. For good showing, and easy escape

I have never once asked myself what the hell that big concrete cliff was there for either. Woah.

Would love to see you comment on the 'movement based vision" concept. We know it's not true now and Crichton actually corrected it in a follow up book. But would love to hear your thoughts on it!

I'm surprised no one brought up the T-Rex Paddock. According to the book and off screen lore, there is a path next to the steep drop, that Rexy uses to get to the goats. It is not seen in the movie, but that's how Rexy got out

“Hold onto your butts” it’s something I tell my daughter every single time I’m driving and we’re about to hit a bump lmao

At the beginning of the movie, why they were handeling a raptor by hand, was because the islands power was knocked out by a storm, the ship had just delivered the specimen from site b to a. And they had to handle it now, otherwise they'll have a rogue raptor loose on the island. That always confused me too till I heard this and thought.. "Yeah sorta makes sense.. Still stupid. Maybe shoulda tranquied it? Then again the female raptors could just killed the male as he slept."

They could also have just put some heavy machinery behind the box to hold it against the enclosure, but that would make too much sense and ruin the scene and the entire reason for the story.
