    Saw it earlier. Pretty good animation. Although I don't think it was a velociraptor, as they're smaller. But keen.

    That depends on if you buy into the Jurassic Park Velociraptors - you are correct, the "real" 'Raptors were smaller, the JP Raptors were actually closer to another dino species whose name escapes me at the moment.

    If you look real close, you can see the guys legs that's wearing the rubber dinosaur suit....he's wearing khakis...and the dinosaurs feet are attached to his shoes...

    Probablya good thing it didn't happen where Wambli works....there'd likely be bullet holes all over the rubber dinosaur...

    Allosaurus was at almost as big as a T-Rex (32ft vs 40ft largest speciman). Ok, you're gonna make me go look it up....

    ... Wikipedia's Velociraptor page sez the JP 'Raptors were closer to a "Deinonychus" - a larger relative.

    I bet the Japanese "Velociraptor" is HOT to wear!

    Still enjoying the trip of a lifetime and making the best of what I have.....

    True, I doubt someone would risk playing that stunt here, considering the possibility of ending up with a bullet-ridden prankster and a blood-stained cool dino-suit. Japs aren't allowed to protect themselves, so unless they call their M1 Carbine-armed troops to shoot it, all they're allowed to use would be a stapler.

    Be sincere guys, if this was for real, it would be everybody's wet dream though.....

    Wonder if a .270 would take it down (In my case a .380ACP, -FMJs only- would have to do the trick).....:popcorn:

    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
    I will fear no evil: For I carry a .308 and not a .270
