That may be true, but T-rex was also heavier than 7 tons. That goes for Sue as well. You can read about that in my post about T-rex being larger than originally thought. Anyways, like I said about Chilantaisaurus, I only found one scientist, I guess Holtz, saying that it could be about 13 meters and 13,000 lbs. Others may have said that too, but I have not found any reports. Not being rude, but I don't think Chilantaisaurus exceeded 35 ft and 3.5 tons. Just my opinion though.

F Y I kelmayisaurus gigantus was 22 meters long (72 feet long) wich makes it the largest theropod to ever exist.

Kelmayisaurus was only about 30 ft long. Kelmayisaurus gigantus has been found to be a mix of sauropod bones and theropod bones, rendering Kelmayisaurus gigantus invalid.

Tarbosaurus, 40 feet long, suchomimis, it was at least as long as allosaurus, but it was found a sub adult, so it was longer.

Suchomimus was probably 36-40 ft long. Similar length to Tarbosaurus.

If Dienochirus was in the same family as Gallimimus, it would be 40 feet long. I did some math using a Gallimimis arm and a Dienochirus arm, and Gallimimus had a 4 foot arm, give or take a few inches. And it was 20 feet long, so it would stand to reason that a Deinochirus would be twice as long with arms twice as long. So that makes it 40 feet.

Unless Deinocherius was a therizinosaur. That's what I think it is. Therizinosaurus had 8-10 foot arms and it is estimated to be about 36 ft long. Deinocherius had arms of similar size and was probably in the same range. No more than 40 ft, but probably more in the 30-36 ft range.

I know that, but this was just if it was a Gallimimus relative. Or if it was a carnivore, it would be much bigger than Spinosaurus, especially if it was a three fingered tyrannosaur of Abelisaur.
