Imagine being a young child walking down the street and you look up and you see a flying dinosaur crossing the street ahead of you...

Maybe but a business man walking a sandwich shop to pick up dinner before taking the train home would not be as excited as 5 year old who was reading books about dinosaurs...

I'm amazed that helicopter had the lift capability for something like this.

That thing is pretty big, so would still have some weight regardless of the material.

It’s probably not a real dinosaur.

There was a Dinosaur documentary, either in the 80s or early 90s with lots of stop motion scenes. One of the clips they used while talking about dinosaurs in pop culture was moving this brontosaurus. They had some really great stop motions scenes of deinonychus, cementing it as my favorite dinosaur.

My mom taped that and I must have watched it 100 times. The image of that deinonychis eating the egg is seared into my memory. I would LOVE to watch that whole thing again.

Edit: found it! https://youtu.be/Kr_335rqvZ0

Yeah, we definitely wore out our tape. I can see that egg scene in my head precisely. Heh. I think somebody had it up on youtube years ago. Not sure if it is there now though.

Every dinosaur I have ever seen is fake

They are either man-made, or they are made from rock not bone
