I have also heard someone earnestly aver that their bones sank through the mud during the Deluge, though the poor sod who claimed this never explained why Noah didn't bother to rescue them.

Another one is that since the dinosaurs were the heaviest, they sank first and were buried deepest by the flood. And another similar one is that they were the dumbest, so they didn't move to dry land as the waters rose and drowned first.

[–]RandomIdiot 1 point2 points ago

IIRC they usually say something about Noah's flood.

I like the mormon explanation: God made the earth using alien planets, which contained dinosaurs.

Wasn't this from a 'legit' website that talked about Noah and his sons riding pterodactyls around the world to collect animals for the ark? Classic stuff.

When I was younger, about 2nd grade or so, I strongly believed that dinosaurs had become extinct because the herbivores had eaten all the plants and starved to death, so then the carnivores starved because all the herbivores were dead.

Nonononono, you see the dinosaurs knew the comet was coming to kill them. So they all started digging holes to protect themselves. But due to a lack of foresight, the dinosaurs had no way to get back out of the holes and that's why they are buried today.

We all believe this is fake, because we were taught something else. But if we were taught that dinosaurs were extinct because they dug holes, I bet we'd think it was crazy that some big meteor wiped them out.
