Fossil of "Ultimate Predator" Found in Arctic

[3pidemiC]

It's called Predator-X (temporarily) and it's a fucking beast (literally):

Predator X had a head twice the size of Tyrannosaurus rex and its bite had four times the force, at around 15,000 kilograms (33,000 pounds) over the whole jaw. Its teeth were each around 30 centimetres (1 foot) long.

That's a bad ass mofo (seriously) :p


It's always cool, especially in this day and age, when scientists discover "new" creatures like this. Makes me wonder what else is yet to be discovered. It might even be that a mythological beast is found one of these days. Now wouldn't that just throw a monkey wrench into a whole lota dogmas. :lol:




:cool:

I heard about this thing the other day. Predator X...lame. Are they getting promo money from Marvel? :p

I'm sure it's just a placeholder until they can technically name it.

This discovered on the same day a new picture of Manson is released?

Coincidence?

I think not.

When I first saw this thread I thought it read "Fossil of "Ultimate Predator" Found in Attic". Had me sitting here picturing some funny things...

I wanna see a deathmatch between this and the Megalodon.

how is it's head twice the size of a full grown t-rex? these things are only about 50 feet long.

[3pidemiC]

They are about 5 times the weight of a T-Rex, I think.

What would that prove? The road to the title"King of the Monsters" goes through Godzilla.

It would be a great undercard though. :p
