Have you seen AMNH 5027 in person? Let us know if it inspired you to be a paleontologist, an artist, or just a museum lover!

Definitely inspired me when I first saw it as a little kid (it was like a Godzilla that was once alive - especially in it's former pose) and turned me into a dinosaur and overall paleontology enthusiast which I still am to this day.

We love paleo art! You may already know the work of Charles Knight who did the T. rex at 4:44, but you should also check out Zhao Chuang's art. He did the Tyrannosaurus at 9:08.

Hi! I saw AMNH 5027 in the early 1980s when I was around 6. It inspired my love of paleontology and museums. I later wrote undergraduate and masters' history theses on early dinosaur discovers William Buckland and Edward Hitchcock. I have a photo of myself on FB from my childhood wearing a T-shirt with AMNH 5027 :) Thanks for the video.

I was 11 yrs old when my family went together and watched this in the theater. It was one of the defining points in my life. We (everyone) had never seen anything like it. The colors on the screen, the clarity, the graphics. People might laugh now, but back then there was nothing even close. When you first saw the dinosaurs, you could have dropped a pin in that theater. Will never forget it.

Indeed!

Tyrannosaurus Rex was an eagle eyed, blood hound sniffing, 20 mph, 7 ton wrecking ball. Literally the king of kings of the animal world.

The Tyrannosaurus rex is the best exhibit in the Hall of Saurischian Dinosaurs. Just like Sue the T. rex in the Field Museum. It is also one of the icons.

While T. rex isn't my favorite dinosaur (Allosaurus is), it rightfully deserves its status as the most famous dinosaur in history.

These videos are great! Next you should create Exhibits videos focusing on the Barosaurus and Allosaurus (Museum Icons like T. rex: The King of Time and Pop Culture), The Titanosaur (Museum Icons like What Color is a Blue Whale?), Deinonychus, giant sequoia, Citipati, Pteranodon, Neanderthal diorama (Museum Icons), Dolphin and Tuna Diorama (Museum Icons), Edmontosaurus Mummy and Mammoth (Museum Icons), Rapa Nui Moai (Museum Icons) and the Amazon FeatherWork (Museum Icons) and Paleoart (Museum Icons). I also have not read my AMNH books in a while, so I really need to do so.

"and some say that tyrannosurus rex was the last word in reptilian frightfulness" h. g. wells, a short history of the world

This video is great, you should include it in a watch party about Tyrannosaurus rex!

well done presentation; esp adding in the JP cover designer.

I first saw this specimen about 50 years ago, when it stood upright of course, and since then have seen it more than a dozen times. Always the most iconic dinosaur for me, and this the most iconic fossil skeleton. I would venture this may be the most visited skeleton in the world when you consider how long it's been on display, it's location in NYC, and the huge numbers of visitors who visit this great museum year after year.

I grew up in Westchester and would beg my parents to take me to the AMNH every chance I got going back to the last version of the dinosaur halls back before they were redone in the early 90s.

6:17 For those who are curious on the paleontologist who named Tyrannosaurus rex, it was Henry Fairfield Osborn, who was even president of AMNH at the time.

Is this the same Chip Kidd who wrote the Batman Animated series art book?

This is cool, next you should make an Exhibits video about the Velociraptor, Citipati or Deinonychus fossils or even The Titanosaur (Patagotitan) and Barosaurus vs. Allosaurus.

This is my fav dinosaur specimen i have seen it many times and my favorite thing in the whole museam

I first saw Tyrannosaurus rex at tha AMNH in 1957 pleading my father to take me to NY. I was inspired to become a paleontologist when I read "All About Dinosaurs" by Roy Chapman Andrew's in1954. Roy led the Gobi Desert Asiatic Edpedition for the AMNH in 1922. Steven Speilbergs T rex skeleton in the movie Jurassic Park was made by Peter Mays in Canada and he also built two dinosaur skeletons for me at the Museum of Science and Industry in Tampa. It's a small dinosaur world.

Thanks for sharing your story! If you liked "All About Dinosaurs," then you may recognize the pages at 5:39! 😉

When the beast had killed by extinction, it was buried underground in bones people discovered the skeletal creature and began to bury. when they took out the parts of the dinosaur skeleton they put them together like jigsaw puzzles. Then be placed it in the American museum of natural history so people could see this mighty creature.

I loved this video and I now know something I didn't know before watching it.

Real KING!

Seriously, am I the only one who thinks AMNH 5027 needs an actual name? I think it deserves one being one of the most famous specimens and the OG T.rex. I propose that we give it the name “Barnum” in honor of the man who discovered it.

Will you change the wrist positions?

The ideas of what T-Rex looked like change so often, I don't think we will ever know what it actually looked like unless they successfully clone one someday.

2:39 I wish the proper term "pterosaurs" was more commonly used by the general public. "Pterodactyl" is old and doesn't help distinguish that pterosaurs were flying reptiles that WEREN'T dinosaurs.

Pterodactyl is fine. "Dinosaur" is old, too. Not exactly sure what you mean by the last point, but "pterosaur" sounds *more* like "dinosaur" than "pterodactyl," so if anything it's arguably more confusing.

Do a video about a spinosaurus

Now they are saying that T-Rex likely DIDN'T have feathers, and that it DID have a fat body.

"Ever since a fossil hunter from the American Museum of Natural History, Doug Tyannosaurus-Rex, ..." Anyone else hear that??? LOL

Plot twist: the T. rex that died from the giga in Jurassic world dominion is AMNH 5027

Sometimes I hate Trex for being loved when a Spinosaurus my favorite Dinosaur could drown it in 3 minutes Ps I love Jurassic park and that birthmark fact is sooooo cool.

Spinosaurus is having their own reputation increased alright. It’s one of the most problematic dinosaur ever been studied. It has its restoration changed drastically for atleast 4 times and we aren’t still quite sure how it stand or move on land, or who know what else it’s going to look like in the future.

Is AMNH 5027 a male or a female? I need to know because AMNH 5027 is my favorite T-rex and does it have a name because FMNH PR2081 is named Sue so what’s AMNH 5027 name?
