Blimey!.....That must have been eye-watering.....even for a Dinosaur!... ...!

Paul...queuing for the Lavatory... ....its competition time!....... ....!

Maybe i'll try to put some for sale

I bet that dino felt allot better! Probably let out a hardy, "Phew"!

I wonder if it looked back at it's creation with pride in it's eye thinking, "Wow, now that's gonna be one impressive coprolite in a few million years."

In a few million years they're going to find some fine specimens where our septic tank is buried........

I always ake 3 Calcium/magnesium before bedtime. Works like a charm.

The part that gets me is that the expected bid of £6,000. And where do you display the thing? Something to show your guests at a dinner party perhap? Maybe your date? "Hey sweety let's go back to my place and I'll show you my dino dung. " now there's a offer that's hard to resist.

It's a load of crap if you ask me.

I've always gotten a kick out of the PC way they discuss this matter. I mean it a fossilized turd. I imagine they don't say it like that in an attempt not to laugh.

I'm waiting for a truly astounding fossil find; a Neanderthal fossilized under a fossilized dino turd. I can just see the news flash, "Fred Flintstone found $hit to death; one of the hazards of working on a brontosaurus excavator!"

Yes, I know that Neanderthal and human kind came after the dinos....... I'm just joking......

You've never been to down-town LA?... ...!

Long time friend and an eye witness to the accident, Mr. Barney Rubble, stated "Fred had been having problems with that bronto all morning. It wasn't his usual excavator as that one was in the barn getting new control vines. This one was an older model which lacked some of the DNA updates the newer ones have. Very tricky to work with but Fred knew that so I don't know what went wrong." Lead brontosaurus inspector Rudy Quartz added "The pre-op and walk around inspections had been signed off with no discrepancies noted. The last physical exam went well with only slight digestive track problems which are very common in these older models. I don't believe that was a contributing factor to this accident but a full investigation will be initiated just as soon as the NDSB (National Dinosaur Safety Board) arrives on the scene. I understand their Pterodactylus is in the air as we speak bringing the investigation team here"
Another source who asked not to be identified for fear of company retribution told this reporter that there are rumors that the company had recently changed the brontosaurus feed to a cheaper type as a cost cutting measure which is in direct violation of the union contract which states that operators are to be notified of any feed changes or unusual shifts in eating habits prior to signing out or operating any heavy dinos. This could have serious implications if found to be true. An older type Bronto lacking the latest DNA updates in addition to its documented digestive track discrepancies being switched to a lower quality diet. This has all the hallmarks of an accident just waiting to happen. Hopefully the NDSB investigation will uncover the exact details of this tragic accident.

Stay turned for further details as they become available.

LMAO; wow that was a serious accident......

I imagine turd tonnage would have to be a factor. They'd probably need a frontend loader for a pooper scooper......

Too much pumice in the diet I think.
