CompsognathusMember0 XPSep-10-2015 11:08 AMIt's been a long time since I've done something like this. This list is, in my opinion, about as accurate as they come. It combines all of the latest scientific discoveries and my own calculations. I'd be more than happy to explain how I arrived at a certain size for these animals. Keep in mind not every giant theropod can be included...
10. Saurophaganax
11.3 meters long, 3.6 tons(based on type specimen and scaling from Allosaurus fragilis)
9. Acrocanthosaurus
11.6 meters, 5.6 tons(based on type specimen and scaling from Giganotosaurus)
8. Zhuchengtyrannus
11 meters, 6 tons(based on type specimen and scaling from Tyrannosaurus)
7. Mapusaurus
12.1 meters, 6.3 tons(based on adult specimens and scaling from Giganotosaurus)
6. Tyrannotitan
12.2 meters, 6.5 tons(based on type specimen and scaling from Giganotosaurus)
5. Siats
12.5 meters, 6.7 tons(my proposed adult size based on subadult specimen and scaling from Neovenator)
4. Spinosaurus
14-15 meters, 6-7.1 tons(based on type specimen, 2014 skeleton, Ibrihim's studies, and scaling from Baryonyx)
3. Giganotosaurus
12.4-13.2 meters, 6.8-8.2 tons(based on type and largest specimens)
2. Carcharodontosaurus
13.2 meters, 8.2 tons(based on Sereno's skull and scaling from Giganotosaurus)
1. Tyrannosaurus
11.9-12.3 meters, 7.6-9.1 tons(based on CM 9380 and Sue, excluding fragmentary remains)
TriceratopsMember120 XPSep-10-2015 11:40 AMSome of these dinosaurs I've never even heard of! The More You Know! Thanks for sharing this ^-^
CompsognathusMember0 XPSep-10-2015 11:45 AMGlad to hear you got to learn some new things then :)
Tyrannosaurus RexMember5639 XPSep-10-2015 12:24 PMREXAN 684 - What an incredibly compelling list! I very much enjoyed the information presented! Thank you ever so much for taking the time to once again provide us with an excellent and comprehensive list of great beasts! :)
AllosaurusMember3811 XPSep-10-2015 1:31 PMThe Tyrant King is once again the tallest predator to walk the earth.
Good grief.
AllosaurusMember4297 XPSep-10-2015 1:37 PMNice! :)
It's been a while since we've had a list like this.

AllosaurusMember3687 XPSep-11-2015 4:43 PMCool list, sometimes I do wonder if there is a predator larger than these si out there, waiting to be discovered, in the ground somewhere...
IT'S TIME TO DU-DU-DU-DU-DUEL!!!
CompsognathusMember30 XPSep-11-2015 9:51 PMSo glad to ead another one of your posts! I agree with it for the most part. If I may share my qucik opinnion? I don't like arguements and never really spoke out becuase it'd always end that way. But here goes...
I always stood by Spino, but ever since he wlked on all fours...eh...
Now I love T-Rex but to me, he's not the largest (from my knowledge and beliefs)
I Stand by Carcharodontosaurus as the largest. Followed by Giganotosaurus, then T-Rex and then Spino.
But really they all loose to the Indominus Rex! (Joke she's not real sadly)
(Also like the forum signature ;) )
But yeah, glad to read your post and I respect your opinnion. :D

CompsognathusMember0 XPSep-12-2015 8:16 AMThat's cool, I respect your opinion. If you want, I'm willing to explain how I arrived at these figures in more detail.
