If like me you grew up the Sixties then you were probably mad on dinosaurs. They were everywhere. Extinct but everywhere.
The big three vegesaurs back then were the massive saurapods. You'll be able to name them: Brontosaurus, Brachiosaurus and of course Diplodocus.
Much more recently BBC's Walking with Dinosaurs shows us what the Brachiosaurus might have looked like. I'd have loved this as a kid!
I thought that they were the biggest land animals ever. Wrong!
There are new sauropods on the block and they're even bigger!
With names like Titanosaur, Argentinosaurus and the fabulously named Dreadnoughtus!
Here's some somewhat ponderous but somehow hypnotic 'footage' of Dreadnoughtus in Malta!
Some of the these giants have only been discovered since I was a kid so I wouldn't have known about them in the 1960's.
The 'biggest' seems to shift depending on who's telling you. Theses guys slug it out for the top spot continuously.
