Learn about 3 myths about dinosaurs explained by science

Tyrannosaurus rex and Spinosaurus have already faced each other in the movies and T-rex lost the battle for the first time. However, this will not happen in real life.

First, the two animals lived at different times, about 25 million years apart, says NHM.

Another point is that Spinosaurus mainly ate fish and spent most of its time in the water. As much as it occasionally ate other dinosaurs, it would never have hunted an animal as large as a Tyrannosaurus rex.

Therefore, even if the two lived in the same period, it is difficult for them to encounter each other, as the British institution explains.

You probably remember this giant running at high speed after its prey in one of the dinosaur movies. But the truth is that such scenes are far from reality.

According to NHM, the running speeds of dinosaurs have been studied and the latest research indicates that T-rex could hardly run faster than a human.

It is believed that this giant reached a top speed of about 16 kilometers per hour. And the dinosaurs he hunted weren’t running as fast, according to the UK’s Natural History Museum report.
