[Professor Alice Roberts] How do you start to get close to animals that lived hundreds of millions of years ago?
Dinosaurs (Di-no-saurs - D-di-no-saurs - D-d-di-no-saurs)
[Dallas Campbell] Dinosaurs weren't just giant lizards (giant lizards)
But a truly unique kind of reptile
[Bill Mondy] Dinosaurs roamed for more than 150 million years Dinosaurs roamed in amazing shapes and sizes
Very few left evidence of their existence
And those bones never cease to fascinate us
[Roberts] The more we find, the more complete our understanding
Utterly awe-inspiring
The world of the dinosaurs
[Campbell] There are always new discoveries out there
Waiting to be found (Waiting to be found)
[Roberts] The more we find, the more complete our understanding
Utterly awe-inspiring
The world of the dinosaurs
(The world of the dinosaurs)
[Jack Fortune] Tyrannosaurus, our largest flesh eater the world has ever seen
Dinosaurs - all the dinosaurs - Followed a well trod trail to oblivion
Rock layers span the age of dinosaurs
The deeper the layer, the older the rock
At the top - rock from the Cretaceous
Below that, the Jurassic
And near the bottom, red Triassic badlands
When dinosaurs first appeared
(When dinosaurs first appeared)
[Roberts] The more we find, the more complete our understanding

[Nye] 65 million years ago
[Nigel Marven] The meteorite smashed into the Earth

At 100,000 kilometers an [hour]
[Roberts] If we'd never found their bones, we wouldn't ever have known (ever have known)
These ancient animals ever existed
