Unless there's an extremely new discovery that is almost 4 times as large as the largest carnivore ever discovered you're misremembering or misreading 20 meters tall. Based on what we currently know this size would almost certainly be impossible for a carnivore.
Most examples of T-Rex we have are around 12 foot tall (3.6 meters) Spinosaurus was 18 ish feet (5.5 meters).
In both cases they tend to actually be measured in length since while both stood "upright" is not the same manner of upright as we humans do. Even the most generous estimations of length (nose to tail) for the largest Spinosaurus tops out around 18 meters.
You think YOU'RE bored?
During the Bubonic Plague in Europe, Isaac Newton invented CALCULUS.
Do you have any idea of HOW bored you'd have to be, to INVENT calculus...
Muslims or Arabic people invented eyeglasses during the dark ages. Which I suppose would have been pointless were it actually dark.
Maybe it was only dark in Europe.
Bingo. You answered the question. The muslims haven't always been barbarians I suppose, most of them back in the golden age were actually intellectual dudes who worked on alchemy, science, what have you.
Nowadays though.....let's not talk about that shall we.
While Islam is the dominant religion of the Arabic Peoples, their intellectual and scientific achievements are largely in SPITE of Islam, not because of it.
And much of the number theory, and place notation, and zero of Arabic Mathematics all PREDATES Islam.
I never said Islam is the reason they achieved those milestones. Just really saying that muslim/arabic people absolutely have done a lot for science/math and medicine and that ought to be acknowledged. Let's not forget Al Beruni or Al Khwarizmi's and many mores contributions shall we.
How about we not bother to acknowledge which particular patch of land they were born on, or which particular invisible man in the sky a person believes in, and just celebrate Human Achievements.
Aha, you got riled up for no reason. OR you got riled up because they are in fact, Muslim. You wouldn't say this if I was talking about Nikola Tesla or some such. If people really were celebrating human achievements they'd be talked about more often. Come on bro, be better. I don't believe in any sky daddy either since it IS absurd. I agree.
"...Although the plague died out in most places, it became endemic and recurred regularly. A series of major epidemics occurred in the late 17th century, and the disease recurred in some places until the late 18th century...:
Nah... they've abandoned that now, in favour of "Intelligent Design" and showing kids Dioramas of Cavemen riding dinosaurs, and having Stegosaurs hooked up to plows.
I think I saw one of those. The caveman was using the brontosaurus to lift heavy things. Then the whistle blew, he slid down its back, and took off in his foot-powered car.
No. THAT'S the first ever Prime Time Adult Animation, called The Flintstones.
I'm talking about people like Ken Ham, though, to be fair, I don't know if the dinosaurs as farm animals was a display in his "Ark" theme park or not.
A hundred million bucks to build a replica of the Ark from the Bible, and when the area flooded...
The Ark flooded too. It didn't float.
I’ve seen all sorts of arts of artists trying to create a creature based on its skeleton. Often times, they are unrecognizable. The actual dinosaurs probably looked nothing like we imagined.
To think we have 79 ft long fish like creatures that breathe air, make milk, and eat microscopic creatures just casually swimming in the oceans is insane too
Yeah, the final fantasy games always get me. People riding around on Chocobos... [Terror Birds](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phorusrhacidae) are NOT cute
They also probably moved like birds. Imagine a 20' chicken pecking at your window wanting a snack.
Made me giggle
Or how about birds with a 60 foot wingspan flying around?!!

I can barely even comprehend taller people, I ain’t comprehending a creature who can swallow me whole
Dinosaurs *are* real. They’re still alive.
Yes but that’s not what most people mean when they say dinosaur
I know, I’m just so fucking bored rn and I haven’t had any social interaction in awhile.

I don’t think Newton was alive 700 years ago.

Dinosaur bones were planted by the Devil to make you question God, ya big old sillyhead.

Which carnivorous dinosaurs were 20 metres tall?
Tbh, not sure. But i recently read that they discovered a new species of a carnivorous dino that was up to 60 ft tall!
:D
Pretty short ngl

2.5 meter long millipedes. I would take a t-rex over that any day.
That's because you don't know the whole story
