A thread about a prehistoric animal? Is this a Veeky Forums or an /an/ thread?
it wasn't alone....
Since when was discussion about historic mega fauna not Veeky Forums related?
How big did these fuckers get anyway?
Wait this thing actually existed at some point? Holy fuck that's frightening.
I'm more scares of the fact that giant squid still exist, 2bh.
The ocean is just fucked.
They were big fish.

between 40 to 60 feet depending...
Meg is generally currently accepted at between 50 to 65+ feet in length on average. They were massive and quite possibly the largest apex predator in history.
It's not even as big as lithuania in that pic.
>history
History had not yet begun in the paleocene.
Stop being pedantic, user.

What is your favorite geologic eras?
Mine would have to be the Permian and the Triassic
Which one had the giant sea scorpions? That one.
Napoleon is best, thats it. He was just best.
The Silurian I believe
Cambrian
There are some (questionably apex) predators that were bigger than it.
Think of a certain whale 18-21 million years ago.
For you, Satan.
I have never heard of any other predator being larger then the Meglodon.
the Nephillim obviously
You don't know frightening until you start dwelling deep into the Cambrian period.
That sounds like some kind of super Jew
...
A lot of freaky stuff down there. When earth was still just water and life was beginning you have freakish creatures that make stuff like the angler fish look like a lap dog in comparison.
Nice filename
kek. they were actually
...
>giant sea scorpions
My favorite
Couldn't these things also go onto the shore as well?
but the earth is only 6000 years old user
That woman looks so happy to be standing in the jaws of a giant monster.
I bet she has a vore fetish.
they were the first animals to go on land because arthropod exoskeletons are basically hazmat suits
Now imagine an 8 ft giant sea scorpion chasing you robotically on the beach as it hungers to devour you.
>its eating a blue whale
im pretty sure the blue whale is the biggest animal ever on earth as far as we know
>apart from ops mom of course
>Holy
>Roman
>Empire
ebin :DD
That looks like Leviathan from mass effect
T-they can't be that fast
But they can be that tireless.
...
Nope, the blue whale is the largest animal that has ever lived on earth that we know of.
You're goddamn right
by that i mean the size in op picture, not weather or not megalodons existed
>never won a real battle
That's nice but they asked:
>apex predator
>carnivore
>Blue Whale
>never won a real battle
You need to listen to more Sabaton, son.
youtube.com
>listening to Sabaton
They're shit, m8. I don't care if they sing about history. It's not impossible to have songs about history that are actually good - just look at Iron Maiden.
Sabaton is better than Iron Maiden. There, I said it.
>Sabaton is better than Iron Maiden
Go to /rvg/ if you want to wallow in nostalgia.
Can you show a battle that Sherman won't that wasn't him numerically vastly outnumbering his opponent, deputized field command to one of his junior commanders, or anything that doesn't involve razing civilian buildings or infrastructure?
Still winning nigga
Can you show me a battle any general won while driving a nail through his dick?
>tangent: Sherman winning battles
>didn't win battles
So no, nigga.
>if I shrektext like this maybe I'll save face
>never won a real battle
>sherman won battles
>nuh uh it doesn't count because he had an advantage
wew lad
Aren't blue whales bigger?
What battles of significance did he win against a respectable sized enemy force? Still waiting. And you can memepost all you want but razing cities isn't the same as defeating an enemy combat force.
Yes but a 60+ foot Meg would literally rip apart a blue whale.
>first major battle
>fucks up and literally has a panic attack and is sidelined to basically desk duty focusing on logistics in the most strategically insigfigant theater of the Civil War
>second major battle
>fucks up royally and only barely recovers
>best glory is bringing total war to the South against military posts or civilian areas that the CSA had abadoned or beating on massively outnumbered Confederate forces
>which still results in massive losses of men due to Sherman's preference from 1864 to use human wave tactics
>Hood and Johnston are mainly dealt with by his subordinate commanders which he has no part of in any strategic or tactical capacity
>"won battles"
He helped win a war via attrition tactics but his actual battlefield reputation is well deserved for being unimpressive.
I'm still waiting for you to post a general who won a battle while driving a nail through his dick.
Keep waiting.
Well, I guess all generals are shit.
>im pretty sure the blue whale is the biggest animal ever on earth as far as we know
Uh no, not even close
It's simply the largest living animal alive today. Prehistoric animals were far larger.
Blue Whale is the biggest animal that ever lived
Front doubled back in the shape of a horseshoe, men have almost no ammo left. Commands men to fix bayonets and attack. Beats the confederates at little Round Top.
>Wait this thing actually existed at some point? Holy fuck that's frightening.
Yep
Recieves a severe bullet wound that tears through leg and exits near his groin. Sticks sword in ground to prop himself up so soldiers don't lose moral. Only leaves battlefield when he feints from blood loss. Doctor tells him it's a fatal would and will kill him. Wound does kill him 50 years later.
The Egyptian airliner that disappeared yesterday
Don't ask where I got this footage
I saw this movie and holy shit it was great
>historic
it's pre-historic so it belong on /an/
wrong
>cambrian
wrong
why didnt napoleon make sure he neutralises prussia first, then maybe go for subjugating austria, instead he went marching into russia and got fucked
>feet
What the fuck is that, convert into human units please
Sauroposeidon and a few other of the largest diplodocids where certainly "bigger" than a blue whale in height and length, but the blue whale is the heaviest animal that ever lived, and seeing as that's how we determine how large an animal is.
WHALE?
feels bad man
The one when the Atlantic breached the isthmus at Gibraltar and flooded Mediterranean "lake"-slash-basin in a magnificent waterfall. IMAGINE THAT SHIT.
I am not afeared! Bad eyesight, lack of coordination. Plus, probably fucking delicious with butter. Which didn't exist yet.
Remember seeing this thing on Walking with Monsters when I was a kid. Good times.
subtle
Did that creationism guy get banned or?
Surprise that he haven't been here yet.
Early Cretaceous, no contest.

What a time to be alive.
>prehistoric
>on the history board
definitely /an/, get this shit off here
>prehistoric animals are not allowed on Veeky Forums
Why all the Africa threads then
>Wait this thing actually existed at some point?
it still exist today, as the never ending Veeky Forums memes of fake maps and imaginary empires
>Sauroposeidon and a few other of the largest diplodocids where certainly "bigger" than a blue whale in height and length
>where certainly "bigger"
>certainly
and yet you are completely wrong
Sauce?
?feet?
Nah, she's just a major Leftfield fan
So are we related to these things
I fucking hate bugs
>neutralise the german states
good luck with that, they couldn't even neutralise themselves
