If there's one animal that has inspired children for at least the past 100 years, it's dinosaurs. The idea that giant reptiles were flying and walking around the Earth at any given point is so compelling to little kids, and I understand why. It's so far removed from the boring reality we live in, where a T-Rex could never crush us on our way to work. In my opinion, the most interesting thing about dinosaurs is that we have no idea how they became extinct. There are three classic theories: disease, climate disaster, and meteor. If you're me and basically every other former child on Earth, you think that the meteor theory is by far the most compelling. It's climatic, cinematic, and a great way to go. I wish that every doomed species got to go out that way, but alas, most of us don't go out with a bang. If you love dinos even though you're no longer a preschooler, these dinosaur memes will rock your world.

    The Land before Time is a great reminder of how no matter what kinds of calamities you overcome, you and all of your descendants will eventually be wiped out by a meteor

    During the filming of Jurassic Park (1993), T-Rex was known to sweat profusely as it was his first major role in 55 million years
    via DutchBoeremeisie

    He had no idea it would be such a hit, since it'd been so long since audiences saw him onscreen.

    Some very inventive people once even believed STEGOSAURUS used its plates as wings that let it glide through the air! But this idea never really got off the ground...
