Did You Know?
- While still small, the T-Rex's arms were over three feet long and may have been capable of bench pressing 400 pounds each.
- Female T-Rex's outweighed the male by a few thousand pounds, maybe because they had to lay T-Rex sized eggs.
- The T-Rex had a powerful bite, about 1,500 to 3,000 pounds per square inch, comparable to that of a modern alligator.
