122-Foot Titanosaur Barely Fits into Museum

G'Day to you. How the heck are you? Hungry? Thirsty? You've dropped into the right place. Pour yourself a big mug of coffee; nudge a virtual megamuffin onto your place and bring them over here to the VIP table. I saved you a seat!  While we are talking mega...

An incredibly long-necked dinosaur, with leg bones the size of couches, is so massive that is has invaded not one, but two rooms at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York City.

The enormous titanosaur — an herbivorous beast that weighed 70 tons (64 metric tons) when alive some 100 million years ago — is the newest permanent exhibit to join the museum. It measures 122 feet (37 meters) long, almost the length of three school buses.

The behemoth is so large it dwarfs the museum's famous model of the blue whale by nearly 30 feet (9 m). But the whale wins in heft; in real life, blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) weigh up to 200 tons (180 metric tons), almost three times as much as the titanosaur, museum researchers said.

Now that is one big dino... Did I mention ugly?

See ya, eh!
