Prehistory's Most Extreme Armored Animals
The armor of this dinosaur was so durable that it could absorb the impact of a car driving nearly fifty kilometers an hour--but it’s far from the only crazy armored critter lurking in prehistory. This video explores the most extreme armored animals in prehistoric times, including the mummified nodosaur Borealopelta, the killer sharp-jawed placoderm Dunkleosteus, the armored titanosaur Alamosaurus, and more. The strength of ankylosaur armor is tested by cutting-edge biomechanical studies, and it turns out that Borealopelta was such a tough animal that it could survive getting hit by a car moving fifty kilometers an hour.
