Dinosaurs Could Submerge Themselves and Breathe While Walking in Shallow Lakes, Their Long Necks Really Did Function as Snorkels

Authors: Jeffrey Joseph Wolynski

: It was claimed that a brachiosaurus would suffocate while walking in a shallow body of water because of the pressure of the water. People in the early 1900’s painted dinosaurs walking in shallow bodies of water, as the artist Zdenek Burian did, using its neck as a snorkel. Fast forward, paleontologists claimed that this would not be possible because the pressure in the water would collapse the dino’s lungs, so then they placed dinos above and out of the water. Now we are going back to dinos easily navigating the shallow seas underwater, because of the ancient atmosphere being much denser during the existence of dinosaurs, of 3-5 bar. Brachiosaurus could snorkel because he/she would only be at ~102- 112% ambient atmospheric pressure. Humans can breath at 109%. Some screen shots and pictures are presented to explain.
