What about Ekrixinatosaurus? It was 10-11 meters and Torvosaurus was 11-13 meters. Pretty good ranking, though. I'd put Spinosaurus at up to 18 meters though based on msnm v4047, the newer Spino they found that was bigger than the 15.6 meter holotype.

I think Tarbosaurus could be on the list. It was about 11-12 meters long. You did an updated length post. You going to do an updated weight one too?

What about horror mouth? Utahraptor is 25 feet long.

There are rumors of 35 foot Utahraptors, but I don't see them getting past 23 feet or so. While Horror Mouth is big, the remains are so poor, it's hard to say how big. I've seen people say its as small as 35 feet and as big as 50 feet. Then again, Das Monster Van Minden is known from poor remains too. I actually have seen a lot of estimations that say it's only 26-30 feet, but I'm not going to jump to conclusions. Dinosaurs like T-rex and Allosaurus are somewhat easy to figure out(length that is) because of good remains. These others are very rare and very poorly preserved.

Some say it is, but I've seen a fair amount say it was 40 ft or so. I have it as 40 feet long and 5 tons on my site.

Giganotosaurus is longer than Mapusaurus. Or at least the one DinoFights sister dug up. At least include that. There is no arguing that it is longer than Mapusaurus.

I agree that Giga was longer than Mapu. I say Giga is about 12-14 meters long and Mapu is about 10-12 meters. But that's just me. I also think Rex is 12-15 meters. But it's GigaDino's list, he can have them ordered as he sees fit.

Why is everything in meters. I doth understand it.

3 feet 3 inches equals 1 meter. I was using meters because GigaDino did, figured I would too. I use both. A 13 meter Tyrannosaurus is 43 feet, give or take an inch or two.

Okay. That clears up having meters as three point something in my head.

Haha, I'm great with the list as long as Spino's number 1!

Even though I don't think Spino was heavier than Rex or Giga, it was certainly longer. I still say 56 ft long. If someone wants to say it's more than that, ok. But I'm sticking with 56 ft unless they find a good skeleton that's more. But that's just me ;)

Mapusaurus is longer than Giganotosaurus. We have pubic material of Mapusaurus about 10 % larger than those of Giganotosaurus holotype.
