If that’s real, and not CG, that’s the coolest thing I’ve ever seen 
Makes me want to visit the museum.

That’s a fantastic puppet. The puppeteers legs are well hidden! They make it so very much like a real animal!
Barking Bud
It’s real all right (if you look closely at it’s legs, you can see the performers knees, in black leotard). If you want to see more, search for “Walking with Dinosaurs – the Live Experience”.

My hind-brain trips back to small-mammal memories… easy to see how (not just) children are skittish around this critter. The puppeteer could easily have provoked panic… any sudden movements cause an amazing rise in tension. Very, very cool.

I’m 40 years old and I’m fairly certain I’d have soiled myself if I had seen that thing coming down the hall at me. Brilliant bit of puppeteering. Here is a funny clip from Regis and kelly… the put a T-Rex out on Columbus Circle in NYC…

heh you know its a good illusion when it sends little kids into a panic and they scatter. 
That is really cool, they should give the actor shoes with pop-out skates so he/she can go fast enough to chase people down on a whim. I imagine after a while the little kids would realize it can’t move fast enough to get them.

I can’t believe there weren’t more kids screaming and crying and running away from the dinosaur.

The Australian Museum in Sydney’s got one by the same people, a 2-year old Muttaburrasaurus called Winnie. The suit’s surprisingly lightweight & durable, and has animatronic blinking eyes and a moving mouth hooked up to a speaker. Goes down a treat during school holidays. Still freaks me out sometimes if I bump into it coming around a corner.

Dag-Nabit, another dupe gets through the steely trap that is Miss C!

Hey, I searched for “dinosaur puppets” and “Erth” and nothing showed up! That happens sometimes.

Holy cow – that is so cool, but talk about giving a bunch of kids nightmares! That gave me the heebeegeebees just watching the video.

A blatant rip-off (albeit a poor one) of the technology used on the “Walking with Dinosaurs: the Arena Spectacular”
Scooter
If you are going to have a dinosaur walking around the place why choose a carnivore?
Sharon
Hey hajirock
just so you know we actually made our dinosaurs well before the “Walking with Dinosaurs” show was up and running.
The cool thing is that you can actually touch ours and have a real experience.
And Scooter – we also made a herbivorous Triceratops for the Museum.
