Perhaps through the evidence of a crater, and it's depth in the type of ground in which it was found, is enough for scientists to determine these creatures actually threw up fully erect, not unlike the night I lost my virginity.
The new "hell in a cell." Get to work and godspeed.
how else would you crush your enemies with vomit
Speak for yourself
Hate to be that guy and ruin everyone's fun but this is science memes, dinosaurs like that would not have there head up like that. They rarely raised there head above there shoulders.
Yeah, that classic image of tall sauropods 🦕 is probably wrong. Also like someone else mentioned they wouldve probably lowered there head anyway to vomit.
Same thing with giraffes.
It's a huge misconception of unrealistic biomechanics.
That giraffe is drinking.
When they're not intentionally bending down to reach something low down like a water hole, they look like this:
This is vertical propaganda.
Look I can keep posting photos I've taken of giraffes all day. All you have to say is "please post more giraffe pics"
Please post more giraffe pics
Nice deep fake! You can't trick me!
Do we even know if they were capable of vomiting?
Seeing how both us and birds can vomit, probably. I imagine that developed very early. If you eat something harmful, you're dead if you can't vomit. If you don't have the brainpower to identify safe and harmful things, you're pretty screwed.
Didn' know birds can vomit. Horses can't.
Huh. I might be totally wrong. I thought they could but I'm not really that knowledgeable on that.
"Brachiosaurus puke crater" is an excellent band name
Try explaining that one after death.
"How'd you die? I got eaten by a T-Rex!"
"I, um well, I...I was going for a walk to find food and I know following this big guy who never eats the lower stuff is great, he cant reach it and the bugs that fall off the trees hes eating are great! As I was munching on a fleeing bug, the big guy burps and I looked up to see him puke. No matter how fast I tried to scurry away the goo was too much and it squished me flat"
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, hopefully you have better luck on this side"
Ok sure. But how many keg stands would they do before vomiting?
I’m impressed someone thought about this question
Needs more jpeg.
