The real stories behind the Tyrannosaurus Rex

After Chris Packham's 成人快手 television documentary, the University of Reading's own paleontologist Dr Manabu Sakamoto revealed more secrets about the dinosaurs' incredible existence.

Dr Manabu Sakamoto:

"I don't think anyone was hunting them, unless there was some sort of cannibalism. They are really heavy, their heads where very heavy, so if they fell they'd probably die.

"They are so front end heavy they had to compensate with the weight of their tail.

"If we talk about a T-Rex, there are certain aspects we can glimpse into, a lot of dinosaurs for example have scars on their faces - so we know they had some inter-species fighting."
