Not sure this one is so accurate. They place humans in this spot through time travel in order to make it the most dangerous place, but it’s still sort of interesting.
Morocco looked a lot different 100 million years ago—and it wasn’t too inviting. This according to scientists who studied fossils and say southeastern Morocco was heavily populated with animals, including three of the biggest predatory dinosaurs ever discovered. “This was arguably the most dangerous place in the history of planet Earth, a place where a human time-traveler would not last very long,” says lead author Nizar Ibrahim in a press release. Among the inhabitants were 25-foot-long predators like the sabre-toothed Carcharodontosaurus and the speedy raptor Deltadromeus, along with flying reptiles and hunters that resembled crocodiles. There were also fish “that would make an angler faint,” says CNET. more
I’ve heard it was in between Chuck Schumer and a camera.
Oh, yeah? Well, how about the USA under Democrat rule? This time under house arrest is just a sampling of what they will devise for us.
I’ll take “sabre-toothed Carcharodontosaurus” any day.
Ummm, given the wildly inaccurate information that “scientific” modeling has been producing lately, I seriously question the accuracy of the depiction these prehistoric animals.
The scientists that comprise the field of Science are humans. And humans are prone to bias and self-preservation, promotion and whatever else pays the rent. They’re going to discover whatever is in their best interest to discover.
Competition today: between Michael Moore and a Twinkie.
@MMin – I thought you were going to say “in between Chuck Schumer’s toes…” LOL
Stacey Abrams’ perineum?
Moroccans hardest hit.
The dinosaurs evolved into Muslims?
Nah. The most dangerous place ever is a public restroom in San Francisco.
Makes me shudder to even mention it.
so, because they found a spot where a lot of animals were at one time it’s the ‘most dangerous spot on Earth’ …. ever, ever, EVER!!!
geese Louise! … so they’ve checked all of Earth & this was the one spot … yeah, right, sounds like AlGore/Michael Mann Science, or Paul Ehrlich 1+1=3 speculation
… call me a wee bit skeptical
@Jimmy–
Could be. Mohammed was both a self-proclaimed rapt-er* and a genuine raptor.
(* etymological stretch, but true nevertheless)
Some of these dinosaur scientists (whatever they’re called) act like little children. One of them declares a new dinosaur has been dug up and they wet their pants in excitement.
Here is what I think: God put them here to prepare the earth for humans. At one time Earth was just a bare mass of rock with salt oceans. We needed to have real dirt to grow things. If you are God, how do you make dirt? Create little lizards to consume seaweed and algae, then bigger lizards to eat the little ones. Imagine the billions of tons of dinosaur excrement after dinos had been around for so many millions of years. Now we’re talking about the earth’s ability to grow huge forests and plants and grasses of all kinds.
When they had produced enough poop, and because they are not compatible with human survival, God sent down a huge asteroid to zap them all to death.
That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.
Why not the South Pole as the most dangerous spot in the world?
Lose your coat down there and you’re a goner in a few minutes.
Heretofore I thought that the most dangerous place on earth was Chicago, MAGA country, at 2am in sub freezing temperatures heading back from the Subway as a gay black man.
Nizar Ibrahim is published regularly in Full of Dung Press.
Bullshit – the most dangerous place to be in all of history would have been that spot just off the Yucatan peninsula where the 7 mile wide asteroid hit & caused a mass extinction event.
You’da been creamed.
The most dangerous place to be on planet Earth is on Hillezibub’s hit list…
The MCC – Manhattan Correctional Center…

“…That’s my story and I’m sticking with it…”
Interesting. It’s a theory that I had not thought of before
No wonder the Grand Prix is there, you had to be fast.
It’s between Michele Obama and a bale of hay.
@Stirrin
Thanks for finding it interesting. It could have happened like that. Just think of yourself as the entity who is creating a home for his greatest creation, us, mix it with some of the scientific facts we do know, like huge brutes walking the earth and eating tons of stuff, and the fact that all animal life (including us) needs vast quantities of foodstuffs, and you might get a workable scenario. Eventually, God had to get rid of them because humans could’t compete with that level of strength.
I even did a calculation once, starting with what I thought would be an average daily production of poop from one elephant (say 20 pounds) multiply that by a fairly conservative average number of dinos every year and multiply that for a few million years, and the result is mountains and mountains of dino excrement – perfect for vegetable life to appear. Maybe it took the Flood to even it out somewhat.
It’s a theory…no proof, and probably never will be.
But science has no agreed upon explanation that I have ever heard of that explains why dinos once walked the earth and are now gone.
I guess I’ll just have to time travel somewhere else.
This is dumb.
@ Al,
T’aint so!
@TimBuktu:
Exactly! There are any number of more dangerous places…
— Inside an active volcano
— Standing on the beach watching a tsunami approach
— The bottom of the Marianas Trench
— Skinny-dipping in Yellowstone’s Grand Prismatic Spring
— Saturn V flame pit at T minus 8 seconds
Fake news. It’s a tie for first between E. St. Louis and Gary.
You think Hiroshima or Nagasaki might make the list
How about anywhere on the planet until it cooled down some
Howdy.
@TimBuktu
“…But science has no agreed upon explanation that I have ever heard of that explains why dinos once walked the earth and are now gone…”
Well, the little brain theory (inability to think critically) comes to mind, as does the lack of opposable thumbs and other physical limitations. Being huge alone does not guaranty survival – just ask Goliath.
Now, as to what exactly happened to bring about their extinction, well, it’s anybody’s guess. But I suspect it may have something to do with their inability to adapt to, among other things….CLIMATE CHANGE.
Yes I said it. Before there were homo sapiens, there was climate change. Hard to believe, but glaciers actually extended as far south as Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee. Now where are they? Oh yeah, Canada and the Antarctic. And some day they may return again. Who knows. But of course I’ll be dead before that happens, so who cares?
Between Chasten and my asshole.
Nah! Between Reggie and MINE!
Yeah? Try to get between me and a 7 year old.
Boy or girl, don’t matter.

Here is some more information on dino dung:
Dinosaur droppings were also crucial for ancient plant life. Just as modern-day farmers scatter manure around their crops (which replenishes the nitrogen compounds that make the soil fertile), the millions of tons of dinosaur dung produced every single day during the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods helped keep the world’s forests lush and green. This, in turn, produced a near-endless source of vegetation for herbivorous dinosaurs to feast on, and then turn into poop, which also enabled carnivorous dinosaurs to eat the herbivorous dinosaurs and turn them into poop, and so on and on in an endless symbiotic cycle of, well, you know.
