D63:  The way you kill a T-rex is by ripping off its small arms

 

Edited by Greg Neyman

 

Argument:  Kent Hovind has claimed that "In ancient literature what were called 'dragons' were actually dinosaurs.  The way they killed these dragons, namely T-Rex, was to pull off their small arm, and let them bleed to death."

Response: 

 

1. No source material exists to back up this claim.  What "ancient literature?"  Even if it exists, dragons are mythical creatures in ancient literature, and cannot be compared to dinosaurs

2. No material is available on the blood clotting capabilities of T-rex blood.  Given the size of the arm, blood flow to the arm would not be great, thus the blood probably would have clotted and the bleeding stopped
