    I love seeing the audience shots - all their mouths are open! And the front row flinches at the baby t-rex.

    To be fair, I too would be afraid of blunt force trauma of the raptor ramming my face, or the possibility of heavy machinery on crashing down of me while it flails about wildly.

    How to make the best Halloween ever:

    Step 1: Make a raptor costume like that
    Step 2: Wear black pants and shoes
    Step 3: Wait until dusk
    Step 4: Sprint after every kid you see.
    Step 5: Eat a bullet to the face...

    Those things were in a Top Gear episode from the past series (or, at least, something like them). My first thought was that it was CG, but then I figured that there was no way in hell Top Gear would have the budget for that quality CG. My mind then proceeded to be blown.

    Can I get that Raptor costume for Halloween and start rocking that on my Main Street? I wonder how long it'd take before the police would shoot me down. ;)

    I had the pleasant opportunity to watch this show when it visited my city last year. It's called "Walking with the dinosaurs," and they travel around performing shows all over the world.

    [www.dinosaurlive.com]

    It's a great show and very creative. If anyone has a chance to go I definitely recommend it.

    Spoiler: The operators are in the boxcar-looking things.

    It's actually a traveling show. It's going to be in Tampa in the near future. There's been ads for it all over TV.
    "Walking with Dinosaurs — The Arena Spectacular."

    I seem to recall a post on Giz about these things being made. Also, dinosaurs know that germans make for a tasty snack treat, don't they?

    When you see it from the seats in an arena (which is how this show is put on) you can't really see the legs. Its pretty cool. The kids loved it.

    I just got "disemvoweled" for using the word "h e double hockey sticks" on another post just a few minutes ago and now they had used it in this post. I am very confused. I have seen way worse in comments on Gizmodo before. Who ever blocked my comments need to grow up.
