The Edwards plateau in Central Texas must have been a huge ass tree

Not relating specifically to trees, but I have pondered the idea that everything was once giant compared to the world of today. Cataclysmic event(s) reduced the amount of oxygen in the air resulting in the modern scale. We see all kinds of giant fossils, megalithic structures, tales of giants, giant shark teeth, et cetera.

There are still giant beings in the océan, I don't think it's related to the O2 levels, also some dinosaures were not giant and the oldest fossiles we have are very tiny, so I guess évolution is just weird. But it's still something to picture giant animals the size of buildings

It's one of the theories about why dinosaurs were so massive, higher levels of oxygen allowed for massive forms of life, multiple extinction events and a few top of the food chain species later and the atmosphere is now 78% Nitrogen.

This article from Smithsonian talks about giant ancient mushrooms that were discovered. The largest living organism in the world is a mushroom in Oregon.

Recent research is showing that it was actually the other way around, and that CO2 levels were higher than they are now.

Interesting, I wasn't aware of that.

I think the higher oxygen levels theory was a guess to explain how dinosaurs got so big, but I don't think there's any real evidence for it. Tricky when you're dealing with something so many millions of years ago.

Do not forget the megafauna of the Pleistocene epoch.

The ones wiped out in the Younger-Dryas event? I think the atmosphere was pretty much what we have now, so I suspect that they grew to a size that conditions would permit.

Everything today is a smaller version compared to Megatherium, straight-tusked elephant, Glypotodon, dire wolf, smilodon, moa, Tenerife giant rat, woolly rhinoceros, elephant birds, short-faced bear... and there were even larger creatures before this.

with dragonflies also one I can't find on fish

Dude dinosaurs are a psyop. There were giants but they were nephilim not dinosaurs. They use the dinosaurs psyop to hide this fact.

No, dinosaurs are not a psyop. Just because some loon somewhere has said so in a YouTube video doesn't make it so.

Riggghtt thats why over 90% of all discoveries happen on government land and by the same "renowned scientists." Or how every full dino exhibit is a replica. Its all bullshit brotha.

So you're trying to tell me that out of all the fossil discoveries made all over the world, 90% of them are on government land? Bullshit, utter bullshit.

Not every dinosaur exhibit is a replica. You've obviously not actually been to museums displaying this stuff. Some are replicas because you're talking about extremely rare, fragile and sometimes huge skeletons.

Brother.

BAM

Brother.

That's Utah. One state in one country. Not very convincing to be honest, rather lacking the 'bam' factor.

How about other major fossil sites? Australia, Argentina, Germany, here in the UK?

Recent research is showing that it was actually the other way around, and that CO2 levels were higher than they are now.

sure why not. what ever fits the narrative.

Plants breathe co2. It's not even questioned that co2 levels were higher during these periods. Go look it up. Ice cores.. start there.

lol.

there were giant dragonflies once, and maybe the limiting factor to growth was their respiratory systems since they breathe through their skins

I want to visit an alien planet full of giant mushrooms and trip balls.

Aborts are the best. The "plant" only produces so much psilicybin per fruit. This the smaller ones are best as you get more per dried weight.

hit me up when you do. i'll be your trip buddy. i got a 30gal trash bag full of unused glow sticks.

Wonder if they have weed on other planets.

dinosaurs

lol

Why can't dinos exist?

That's for high level conspiracy black belts.

Who have not been taught well.

OK blue belt. That's nice.

It's not just a theory, it's what is accepted by scientists to be true. It's the only explanation for giant insects hundreds millions of years ago like dragon flies the size of hawks, because of how insects take in oxygen their size is limited by the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere

Also heard that the Earth was smaller and had a lower gravity. Models of dinosaurs in today's physics have resulted in disastrous results ~ T-Rex's not being turn their head or run without breaking their neck as one example.

Maybe the resulting mass from another planetoid or similar celestial object crashed or merged into Earth?

Growing earth. Smaller globe has lower gravity.

Maybe because the earth was smaller. Less gravity

Interesting point, growing earth does seem like an inevitability given our current understanding of celestial bodies.

The other theory is that the earth was smaller and that the earth actually expands through it's core when the sun periodically shoots massive amounts of energy into the solar system. At these times of peak energy the core of the earth reacts and matter is created. Which also causes cataclysmic conditions on the surface. Dinosaurs, Noah flood etc. As a result of the earth expanding gravity and surface conditions change which promote smaller organisms.

Mesas are just geology, no trees ever grew that big.

Maybe you know why all plateaus in a given area are generally the same height? If they were trees and buried in silt and petrified only up to where they were buried that would explain it. How do modern geologists explain this?

They tend to be at the same height because that was the original upthrust level before the erosion started.

Very difficult to picture is their an animation or something I can view that shows the process and the Collins the physics?

What's up, Google down where you are?

You seemed convinced so I figured you had access to good proofs regarding this process. I guess not.

Yeah, whatever.

You could look at some mountains?

The top of plateaus are what used to be that areas normal ground level. Plateaus are usually different kind of rock than the surrounding, for example old volcano spouts etc., and when the land was eroded the plateaus remained.

A lot of today's geography is the result of the Great Flood that drastically changed the planet, the Grand Canyon for example is an old spillway from the it.

The Grand Canyon is an ancient mine

Because a fossilised tree doesn't suddenly turn in to a different form of rock.

https://youtu.be/fFrLkNrATGA Long documentary, interesting one at that, but idk about anything just an alternative perspective it also raises good questions even if you don't believe their explanation

Too bad most never payed attention in school. They don’t even know how to research!

If you go by the FE theory then the true size of the earth is undefined

Tree stumps are not flat on top unless they are sawed off. So if mesas are tree stumps, who did the sawing?

Animals evolve to larger sizes when food sources will support larger animals. This can be seen in inland grizzly bears and coastal brown bears. Coastal brown bears are a sub species of grizzly and evolved to larger size due to the abundance of calories available from salmon running up river to spawn.

when food sources will support larger animals.

Yes. And it can work the other way around too. For example avocados wouldn't exist without giant (extinct) mammals, capable of swallowing (and shitting) its very large seed.

My point was that a higher percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere was not necessary for large Plants.

More C02 might actually be better for large plants.

Then the large plants would provide ample food for large Herbivores. Large Herbivores provide food for large carnivores.

Still not buying mesas as tree stumps though.

I wanna see those gargantuan tree rings!

Look up the Devil's Tower.... Close encounters of the Third Kind plot pretty obsessed with it, as was a CIA remote viewing experiment conducted around the same time... (project stargate)...

I love this theory, ancient silicone trees and gem plant life harvested by "annunaki" and we are living in a stripmined planet with a small layer of regrowth.

Some of these mesas spot on look like stumps and that one with the hexagon shaped columns that look like petrified pathways, blows my mind.

My 2 cents

No.

You're welcome.

I came across it like 6 months ago, tried to watch a video on it. I gave up about 15 mn in, real science would completely debunk it so they very obviously avoided it at every turn.

Cool idea, but the only thing to it is that mesas happen to resemble a gigantic tree stump that was cut with a gigantic chain saw. That's it, really.

I believe this 100%, also that These trees were smart, that is why there are so many references in movies and shows about trees with faces and giant trees at the center of the forest like in both "avatar" and "avatar the last airbender"

just heard about rocks did we?

Maybe you know why all plateaus in a given area are generally the same height? If they were trees and buried in silt and petrified only up to where they were buried that would explain it. How do modern geologists explain this?
