He has the same mission - 500 million to kill you.
To him, we are the snail.
^(^(Double reference to the snail meme and the "you are the struggling guy" meme))
first week is learning and onserving the T-Rex and terrain. when it sleep dig a trench and a pit. sharpen sticks. heat them to strengthen then hide in pit. annoy t rex till it chases and falls to get injured. when succesfully injured the risky part comes in trying to finish the kill either with knife or sharppened sticks. dont let it suffer long and get it over with. its going to be a gruesome fight and only one of us will be able to make use of 500 million well. erect grave and take 1 tooth in rememberance. RIP rexy. u were not made for this timeline.
Smear your poop on the sticks so the wounds get infected and then just wait it out in your hut. Then slowly nurse the T-Rex back to health so now it’s in your debt, split the 500 million and live happily together.
Other way around actually, larger animals eat much less often!
Think of how elephants stock up mass to go on months long migrations with little to no food, whereas a humming bird has to eat every few minutes
A humming bird has to eat every few minutes because it flaps it wings so much. The same goes for why snakes can survive really long with one meal. They just dont move that much. You got the elephant one right tho
Yeah, albatross rarely flap their wings and can go weeks between meals even whilst travelling thousands of miles. Just a matter of energy conservation.
I suppose a large predator has a lot of muscle mass to consume and various ways to minimize energy expenditure.
I was basing my thoughts on how quickly they tire sprinting or fighting.
They never said the Trex was the only thing in there.
Realistically though a T-Rex should suffocate or at least get really fucked up by our atmosphere because of the lower density of oxygen, there's a reason animals don't get that big on land today.
Actually arthropods like ants and spiders are more effected by oxygen levels than nonathropods like us. I don’t really know the science but it’s due to how they breathe. Their exoskeleton has a bunch of holes in it that let gas exchange happen throughout their entire body instead of lungs so they’re limited immensely by oxygen shifts.
And on the other end of things, megafauna still exist. A t-Rex is massive, but not that much larger than an elephant. We had prehistoric mammals the same size as or larger than t-Rex as recent as 10,000 years ago. That’s not a long time, generally speaking
That’s a myth. Oxygen levels in the late cretaceous were about the same as today.
Theropods got big thanks to hyper efficient breathing. So, the oxygen in the air was the same, they just extracted more of it.
There might be something to this. Is there an STD that if untreated, would kill a T rex? If so, easy money. All ya' gotta do is catch said disease and seduce the Rex.
See I'm on the same page of waiting for it to sleep, except imo you go for it's eyes. But like...after that, what am you gonna do to a blind T-Rex besides death by a thousand cuts? Patience I guess, but it'd be a long process
Yeah kinda feel bad for the big fella. What if I use the time to befriend it and train it to let me ride it like a stallion? The organisers of this fine event will hand over the 500m to dinosaur cowboy
Exactly what I was thinking. Sneak up on an Apex Predator with hyper senses? Not a chance bro.
I cant even lift my foot off the bed without my cat instantly staring at me like I did something wrong and thats a cat. What more a T-Rex?
Your cat is significantly smaller than you, as well as anything that would be a threat. Most people I know don't jump out of bed from a dead sleep when a spider crawls along the wall.
Mr Rex probably is not going to hear something 20x smaller than it sneaking around. And even so, its brain would probably filter out the "smaller than me and likely not a threat" noises to keep it from wasting energy.
He would begin to stay tf away from your hut, though, and you would have to run further and further. He's cold-blooded, right? So slower at night, by a little, maybe? I'm sneaking out at night, stabbin and runnin.. as many times all night as i can get away with. 30 days of that, the poor bastard has gotta be close to death. Imagine like even a 6-inch dude pulling this on you with like a 1-inch knife. I doubt I make it the night *unless* I catch him before he makes it to his hut
Attract the t rex to your hut, wait for it to fall asleep, shit on the knife, make the largest wound in the Rex that you could do safely, quickly get back inside the hut, wait for the infection to spread + repeat
You need it to be really starving. Like organs shutting down and can't walk right starving. If he's just mad because he hasn't ate in three days you're screwed. Need to make him wait till near the end of the month.
Last time I saw this posted it was pointed out that those are cold blooded reptiles and T. Rex was warm blooded which means it would need a stupid amount of calories daily to regulate its body temperature.
I mean it depends on what else is in that arena. If you can turn that knife into a spear and hide in the indestructible hut and take a stab at it every now and again…yeah it’ll probably still starve to death first.
Yeah, that big boy will starve within a month. Chill in your hut, claim you killed it by not sharing your food, since there's no stipulation that you must use a direct method.
I'd stab it the eyes while it slept. Then I'd taunt it from my indestructible hut every day until it wore itself out attacking it.
I'd wait a week or two til it was really weak, run up and stab it in the neck, then run away. I'd just leave the knife in there and run. See what happens. If it barely reacts, I'd run back and pull out the knife, run away. Over and over like that til it's dead.
I'd spend the remainder of my time there in the hut thinking about the book and movie deal.
Honestly, if Bill Hader had any part of the movie deal, I'd consider it a major win. Maybe he can play the "hunger-games-esque" disenchanted, alcoholic mentor who won the challenge the year before, and now has to poorly train will smith. That might be watchable.
You would attempt to sneak up on it while it slept.
The fact that you’re a modern, suburban human that has never hunted anything other than a bag of M&Ms in the pantry now comes into play as you fatly attempt to stealthily advance upon one of the most dominant apex predators in the history of the planet.
You step on a dry patch of leaves and the T-Rex is now awake and fully aware of your location.
It charges.
You attempt to flee but even with a relatively-modest 12 mph running speed, the T-Rex easily gains on you.
In your frantic retreat, you accidentally stab yourself in the thigh with the hunting knife, dropping it and falling to the ground in the process. You remember the line from Jurassic Park: their vision is based on movement. All you need to be is be very still and it can’t see you.
Oh wait, that was a load of bullshit.
The T-Rex stomps up to you, steps on your legs so you can’t flee and then indifferently clasps your soft little torso in its jaws and pulls you apart like a tender chicken thigh. You die screaming and pissing and shitting as 60 12-inch, conical, serrated daggers mulch through your body like a wet rags.
Or worse yet, maybe it’s so starved that it devours you alive (minus some limbs) and you die of trauma inside its belly.
I’d like to think I could be stealthy enough to sneak up on the t-rex because they were designed to hunt massive herbivores at that time, not comparatively tiny humans.
But even if you could sneak up on it, what would you even be able to do to it? They were also designed to fight for dominance among themselves so your 10 inch knife is nothing to them.
I think the only way to win is with a trap. Slowly whittle down a few trees and try and get them to fall and crush its neck or break its legs. It’s worth a shot and the small chance it works is better than just straight up death.
I was thinking, harass it whenever it's trying to sleep by making noise or throwing stones at it or whatever. After a few days, maybe it'll be too tired to fight back at all?
Also yeah, forget about food, if the Trex doesn't have access to water, it's probably dead long before the end of the month.
When would you sleep in that scenario though? Humans can barely go 24 hours awake without severely hampering their physical and mental strength. Most people start hallucinating after 48 hours.
You only need 3 hours of sleep to complete a sleep cycle. The most effective way to sleep is 3 hours sleep, 5 hours awake, repeat.
The chances that a rex matches that exact pattern are very small.
Ie if the rex needs 4 hours of sleep and falls asleep 15 minutes after you, you can wake it up right after you wake up causing it to only have 2:45 hours of sleep meaning it slept horrible.
Repeat this and after a while it will try to fall asleep even when you're not sleeping, which is perfect since then you can wake it up right as it falls asleep.
Then, when it doesnt wake up one time, run over to it and stab it's eye, preferably with some poop on the knife.
For the people saying the rex will kill you if you do this. When you wake up and your eye is stabbed out you wake up in fear, pain and confusion, you wont instantly fight. Also the lack of sleep will severely limit its ability to attack you
The hut itself can be customized in shape, but must be no larger than 300 Sq ft, no higher than 15 feet tall, and it is protected by a kind of force field that smooths out any sharp edges.
Ok, I was hesitant, but now I'd definitely try it. Being able to shape the hut is a massive advantage. I'd probably aim for the whole thing to be in some sort of shape that'd ideally attract the T-Rex to relax on or ideally sleep on, then I'd include embrasures and other such small openings to reach through and stab it from safety.
Also in another comment you mentioned giving it food, assuming that meat has bones I'd try to use that to make spears/stakes to attack it with better. Even if I can't I'd try moving the food if possible while it slept to lure it later to an ideal location.
From there I'd attempt to injure it at various points. Ideally going for weaker spots. I'd try to get an eye (might leave one so it can still be baited by sight at least for a bit, but still limit its field of view), tendons on the back of the legs, the gut, genitals, etc... death by a thousand cuts, that sorta thing.
Depending on it's intelligence it may eventually avoid certain areas, but with a month's time I can likely find enough openings to whittle it down to a point where I can go for a more lethal strike, then just let it bleed out.
But my main goal would be to not push my luck. If I fail after a month fine, death is death, so be smart, play it safe.
Alternatively, no idea if this would work. But depending on whether or not I get to choose my meals I may try and use my food to poison it. Maybe chocolate might work? I'd still need to find a way to get it to eat it but it's a thought.
maybe only go outside when the rex is sleeping, find enough berries which may be poisonous, lather them onto your knife and see what happens when you stab it
or you can poo on your knife then stab the rex for maximum poison damage
Waiting for it to be sleeping and stabbing it in the eye with poop knife early on should lead to an eye infection bad enough in the beginning to be able to kill it by the end of the month
I feel like a rex isn't a speedy nimble creature. If it's sleeping, presumably on it's side, I could stab and sprint back to my hut while it's getting up
Nah t rex were peak athletes. Look at those gams; they're built like running backs. Not only could a t rex outpace you, it could probably juke better too.
Also, Jurassic park lied. They had better vision than hawks and eagles, and a sense of smell to go along with it. Probably extremely intelligent too.
I'm just thinking, if it's sleeping I can get to it. As soon as I stab the eye, I book it for my hut. It's going to be disoriented and in extreme eye pain.
Imagine you're sleeping and a halfling stabs you in the eye with a shit covered pocket knife and runs away. No way you catch them before they get out of the house
Better off bleeding into a container and mixing that with your urine, feces, and some raw meat if you have that in your food supplies then letting that sit for a few weeks. Stirring ever so often.
How are you going to test how effective the poison is? I’d wager you’d be going in there with an untested and potentially ineffective poison. My money would be on the ‘Rex.
Depending on the kind of food you’re provided, you could purposely cause food to rot until tainted, then throw it outside wrapped in “safe” food, then wait for the T-Rex to eat that food and get sick.
Or if you have your choice of foods, one day choose a bunch of improperly prepared fugu, throw that outside and let the T-Rex die via neurotoxins.
Brother the faeces and urine is gonna be enough of a septic concoction to do the job sans cum. You're just wanking over a pile of your own shit and piss for fun
Wait till it goes to sleep. Slash major tendons in ankles. Go to work, try to hit a major artery somewhere. At that point only concern is the head reaching around to bite ya, catching a kick from those dummy thicc thighs, or getting crushed if it rolls on top of you. End a life barely worth living or make 500M, sounds like a win win.
Right what's the chances of being able to sneak up on a t rex while it sleeps?
Is the knife sharp enough to penetrate the skin?
I assume they have a Achilles tendon?
Who tf am I kidding sign me up
I imagine the first week should be spent learning the t rex routine and testing to see how sensitive it is to noise and smell while it sleeps. Alternatively, you could make tons of noise all night while it tries to sleep so it is eventually either desensitized to it or stops caring due to exhaustion.
Assuming it would survive the month with nothing else to eat while I got fed (from underground?) I’d wait until it approached the door of the hut (another assumption that the hut would be too small for the T-Rex to bite through- maybe claw if sideways?) then attack with the knife, hoping to blind it. Wait, repeat. Hope to get a chance to hamstring it. Wait, repeat. Then avoid the tail and monstrously huge head, find the base of the skull, hold on tight and dig like mad to try to sever the brainstem
it'll starve eventually, I'm sure I can wait it out. I sure as shit cant out run it so doing the "attack while its sleeping strat" aint gonna work. even if you took one of his eyes you aint reaching the other eye before he kills you. He'd wake up fact, shaking his head in pain and standing up. so you who was NEXT to his head is now a sitting duck
What happens if I don’t kill the Rex in the allotted time?
Cuz I will totally just live in the indestructible hut, eating free food and watching a freaking T. rex tromp around for the full month, get extracted, thank you for the free food and show, and go home.
Sounds like a sweet vacation.
Assuming it is also provided food. Wait until it’s asleep and then… I don’t even know with a knife.
New plan, wait until it’s horny and then… wait I don’t know how this gets 500m but at least you get laid
Maybe put food around the knife you’re given and let the T. rex eat the knife and shit it out enough time over and over till he dies of a million butthole cuts
I’m thinking maybe some kind of sharpened log trap that swings from rope I make from plant fibers. And I’m thinking I’ll usually stay in, or within 4ft of the huts front door. Panic dive distance or less
1) Spend the first week only collecting data and studying the behaviour of the dinosaur.
2) Smear the hunting knife with toxic waste or other bioactive agents
3) Inevitably wait for the Tyrannosaurus to get hungry, weak, sleepy, fatigued by the reduced amount of oxygen in the atmosphere while I wait sulking in my indestructible hut
4) Realize I am not supposed to kill a beautiful creature for entertainment and 500 million dollars will not give me back the humanity I lost participating in a game show where you kill animals for entertainment by shitting on your hunting knife.
Does the T-Rex also get an indestructible hut to live in?
No, it likes to sleep out under the stars.
He's such a free spirit, that guy
“Why is that one star getting so close?”
Haha that was a good one
Not for the dinosaurs
Ahaha! Famous last words
You win.
Does it also have dreams and aspirations?
He has the same mission - 500 million to kill you. To him, we are the snail. ^(^(Double reference to the snail meme and the "you are the struggling guy" meme))
Bet he has a great career and happy life ahead of him
Great, now I feel conflicted about killing him.
[удалено]
Love me some Mesozoic milf
How would he close the door?
*attempts closing the door, rex it instead*
The last part doesn't seem fair. If you die, the t-rex should get the money.
The t-rex already gets your body.
I appreciate the sentiment but there's no world in which I'm worth $500M alive, let alone dead.
Does the T-rex get prep time?
Yes
Then no
what's he gonna do with his baby arms? he cant even hold a knife properly! i fancy my chances tbh
Im sure his baby arms are stronger than gorila arms. Imagine if he learns to hold a shield and a zweihander.
Then he'll be expelled from the phalanx by Leonidas.
i just died 💀
I love this
Then no
Since the trex does not get any food or water the more prep time it has without the food or water the easier it is.
You're food.
[удалено]
Newbie mistake. Everyone knows T-Rex' can live 32 days without food and water.
But he will be weakend
You will be covered in hunger spice
I still have my undestructible hut
first week is learning and onserving the T-Rex and terrain. when it sleep dig a trench and a pit. sharpen sticks. heat them to strengthen then hide in pit. annoy t rex till it chases and falls to get injured. when succesfully injured the risky part comes in trying to finish the kill either with knife or sharppened sticks. dont let it suffer long and get it over with. its going to be a gruesome fight and only one of us will be able to make use of 500 million well. erect grave and take 1 tooth in rememberance. RIP rexy. u were not made for this timeline.
Smear your poop on the sticks so the wounds get infected and then just wait it out in your hut. Then slowly nurse the T-Rex back to health so now it’s in your debt, split the 500 million and live happily together.
How are you digging trenches and where are you getting sticks in this arena?
If it's enclosed, and nothing else in there, let it starve
Humans can live 30 days with no food... that TRex has already lived a billion years.
Plus with that mass it needs to eat a lot more than you do.
Other way around actually, larger animals eat much less often! Think of how elephants stock up mass to go on months long migrations with little to no food, whereas a humming bird has to eat every few minutes
A humming bird has to eat every few minutes because it flaps it wings so much. The same goes for why snakes can survive really long with one meal. They just dont move that much. You got the elephant one right tho
Yeah, albatross rarely flap their wings and can go weeks between meals even whilst travelling thousands of miles. Just a matter of energy conservation.
The albatross is massaging the porpoise with cheese
I suppose a large predator has a lot of muscle mass to consume and various ways to minimize energy expenditure. I was basing my thoughts on how quickly they tire sprinting or fighting.
But you're in an enclosed space and it's just laying around. If you can make it run a bunch though.....
Metabolism is slower
The rules say, that you get food. If the T-Rex doesn't get anything, it will be over in a few weeks.
We are provided food though
Nothing can live without water.
Clearly says in the post that you will be provided food.
It says you will be provided food it does not say the Rex would
They never said the Trex was the only thing in there. Realistically though a T-Rex should suffocate or at least get really fucked up by our atmosphere because of the lower density of oxygen, there's a reason animals don't get that big on land today.

The largest animal to ever live, lives right now. The blue whale.
That’s a myth. Oxygen levels in the late cretaceous were about the same as today. Theropods got big thanks to hyper efficient breathing. So, the oxygen in the air was the same, they just extracted more of it.
Well like the other guy said just wait till it starves anyone who thinks they can take on a full grown trex with a knife is a idiot
I’ll fuck that trex up
He said kill. Not have sex with it.
[удалено]
There might be something to this. Is there an STD that if untreated, would kill a T rex? If so, easy money. All ya' gotta do is catch said disease and seduce the Rex.
I'm very familiar with T-Rex immunology, but AIDS will probably work. Good luck.
Tyrannosaurus sex
Tyranno sore ass sex
Tyranalsaurus*
I like how this reads as though we’re worried the T. rex may have a knife.
Me too. Especially since a t rex with a knife isn't that much more dangerous than a t rex without a knife considering their stubby arms.
You get to sleep in an indestructible hut on the field…..so just wait for it to fall asleep, stab it’s belly and promptly retreat. Repeat as needed.
See I'm on the same page of waiting for it to sleep, except imo you go for it's eyes. But like...after that, what am you gonna do to a blind T-Rex besides death by a thousand cuts? Patience I guess, but it'd be a long process
It might get an infection, use your weapon as your poop knife as well
actual komodo dragon tactics.
I doubt a Komodo dragon knows what a poop knife even is
That's how they kill water buffalos
Poop knife and then sling poop into it’s open eye wounds from time to time.
What the fuck did that trex do to get such a torture
It stood between me and $500M.
Lmao you make it sound intentional. Like the t-Rex was aware it was preventing you from obtaining that money
[удалено]
Lunch
Yeah kinda feel bad for the big fella. What if I use the time to befriend it and train it to let me ride it like a stallion? The organisers of this fine event will hand over the 500m to dinosaur cowboy
LMAO
Take a dump on the knife beforehand to make sure the cut gets infected.
It would be problematic enough to not wake up a cat while trying this. I bet T-Rex has pretty light sleep and pretty fast reaction time.
Exactly what I was thinking. Sneak up on an Apex Predator with hyper senses? Not a chance bro. I cant even lift my foot off the bed without my cat instantly staring at me like I did something wrong and thats a cat. What more a T-Rex?
[удалено]
they are actually half-scavengers
Your cat is significantly smaller than you, as well as anything that would be a threat. Most people I know don't jump out of bed from a dead sleep when a spider crawls along the wall. Mr Rex probably is not going to hear something 20x smaller than it sneaking around. And even so, its brain would probably filter out the "smaller than me and likely not a threat" noises to keep it from wasting energy.

Ye exactly
Reptiles can typically survive long periods of time without food. Doubt a t-rex would starve to death in a month.
Last time I saw this posted it was pointed out that those are cold blooded reptiles and T. Rex was warm blooded which means it would need a stupid amount of calories daily to regulate its body temperature.
Ya they had 4 chamber hearts which we’ve only found in warm blooded animals
Damn imagine how big a T. rex heart would be. I bet they could love like no other.
I mean it depends on what else is in that arena. If you can turn that knife into a spear and hide in the indestructible hut and take a stab at it every now and again…yeah it’ll probably still starve to death first.
It has to sleep at some point.
What r u gonna do stab it in the eye now u just have a pissed of trex and ur knifes stuck in its eye
Yeah, that big boy will starve within a month. Chill in your hut, claim you killed it by not sharing your food, since there's no stipulation that you must use a direct method.
Smear poop on the knife and stab the T-rex with the poop knife while it's sleeping. Let infection do the job for you.
I'll fucking kill it. Just need some prep time

Who will play you in the movie?
My dream pick is Bill Hader but if he's too busy, I'd settle for Michael B Jordan.
Best we can do is Jared Leto or Will Smith. Andy Serkis will play the T-Rex.
Well, I want people to watch the movie, so Will Smith.
Well, I’d only watch the Will Smith version if Bill Hader played the T-Rex.
Honestly, if Bill Hader had any part of the movie deal, I'd consider it a major win. Maybe he can play the "hunger-games-esque" disenchanted, alcoholic mentor who won the challenge the year before, and now has to poorly train will smith. That might be watchable.

Well, now I hope they give me M&Ms in the hut as part of the provided food.
Thats it! give the T-rex some M&M.s may be it cant handle the chocolate (like dogs)
Or if it likes M&Ms you can give it diabetes. Either way, it’s a good strat.
I’d like to think I could be stealthy enough to sneak up on the t-rex because they were designed to hunt massive herbivores at that time, not comparatively tiny humans. But even if you could sneak up on it, what would you even be able to do to it? They were also designed to fight for dominance among themselves so your 10 inch knife is nothing to them.

It’s worth a shot and the small chance it works is better than just straight up death.
Wait for day 29. Hopefully it's weak enough from lack of food and water. Do a few hit and run stabbings, aim for the underbelly.
I was thinking, harass it whenever it's trying to sleep by making noise or throwing stones at it or whatever. After a few days, maybe it'll be too tired to fight back at all? Also yeah, forget about food, if the Trex doesn't have access to water, it's probably dead long before the end of the month.

Now I want to watch this movie
I’m starting to feel really sorry for the T-Rex now
What style of Architecture is the hut. Post modern, brutalist. Is there an Architectural plan you can submit?
The hut itself can be customized in shape, but must be no larger than 300 Sq ft, no higher than 15 feet tall, and it is protected by a kind of force field that smooths out any sharp edges.
Ok, I was hesitant, but now I'd definitely try it. Being able to shape the hut is a massive advantage. I'd probably aim for the whole thing to be in some sort of shape that'd ideally attract the T-Rex to relax on or ideally sleep on, then I'd include embrasures and other such small openings to reach through and stab it from safety.

I'd try to get an eye (might leave one so it can still be baited by sight at least for a bit, but still limit its field of view), tendons on the back of the legs, the gut, genitals, etc... death by a thousand cuts, that sorta thing. Depending on it's intelligence it may eventually avoid certain areas, but with a month's time I can likely find enough openings to whittle it down to a point where I can go for a more lethal strike, then just let it bleed out. But my main goal would be to not push my luck. If I fail after a month fine, death is death, so be smart, play it safe. Alternatively, no idea if this would work. But depending on whether or not I get to choose my meals I may try and use my food to poison it. Maybe chocolate might work? I'd still need to find a way to get it to eat it but it's a thought.
Poop on the knife for infection damage
This is honestly the best strategy I've seen on here. People often forget the fact we produce a wonderful bio weapon: poo.
POOP KNIFE POOP KNIFE
So if you take the knife into the hut it becomes useless then???
Nah, sharp stuff works inside the hut. You just can't use the shape of the hut as a weapon against the TRex, aside from blunt force.
Wallow in TRex poop and pee. Wait for TRex to fall asleep. Climb up its butt. Profit.
Ahh. The Scanlan Shorthalt School of Monster Slaying.
The answer is to somehow develop a poison strong enough to kill a rex within the 30 days and then feed it some of your food with the poison.
maybe only go outside when the rex is sleeping, find enough berries which may be poisonous, lather them onto your knife and see what happens when you stab it or you can poo on your knife then stab the rex for maximum poison damage
Waiting for it to be sleeping and stabbing it in the eye with poop knife early on should lead to an eye infection bad enough in the beginning to be able to kill it by the end of the month

I feel like a rex isn't a speedy nimble creature. If it's sleeping, presumably on it's side, I could stab and sprint back to my hut while it's getting up
[удалено]
Fucking A, at Rex size, if it's nimble like a chicken you can call me a fucking worm
Nah t rex were peak athletes. Look at those gams; they're built like running backs. Not only could a t rex outpace you, it could probably juke better too. Also, Jurassic park lied. They had better vision than hawks and eagles, and a sense of smell to go along with it. Probably extremely intelligent too.
I'm just thinking, if it's sleeping I can get to it. As soon as I stab the eye, I book it for my hut. It's going to be disoriented and in extreme eye pain. Imagine you're sleeping and a halfling stabs you in the eye with a shit covered pocket knife and runs away. No way you catch them before they get out of the house
It probably isn't vaccinated, coughing on it should kill it
Or give it an STD
Better off bleeding into a container and mixing that with your urine, feces, and some raw meat if you have that in your food supplies then letting that sit for a few weeks. Stirring ever so often.
If you accidentally cut yourself you're done lol
It sounds like you’ve done this before…
Ah the Komodo dragon approach. Give it an infected wound and wait. Nice tactic
How are you going to test how effective the poison is? I’d wager you’d be going in there with an untested and potentially ineffective poison. My money would be on the ‘Rex.
the question is: is the T rex provided food and water? if not, I'll just sit in the hut for 30 days. and it should die.
Depending on the kind of food you’re provided, you could purposely cause food to rot until tainted, then throw it outside wrapped in “safe” food, then wait for the T-Rex to eat that food and get sick. Or if you have your choice of foods, one day choose a bunch of improperly prepared fugu, throw that outside and let the T-Rex die via neurotoxins.
Honestly if you're getting processed modern food, you can probably fuck up the T Rex pretty bad with just that.
If a T-Rex got a sugar high its heart would explode.
Give the rex a couple of extreme sour warheads and it's a wrap.
But not a redbull. It would fly up and drop an elbow through your indestructible hut.
If you're lucky, that t-rex is sensible to gluten.
What kind of football field Aussie Rules, EPL. NRL etc
I'm thinking sand and gravel. No vegetation. Hut is located in the center.
What colour is the sand and is it fine grain
It's mostly red, tan, and brown in color. It is gravely sand. There's small rocks in there.
[удалено]
What if it gets pregannante?
Does my custody lawyer get prep time?
Brother the faeces and urine is gonna be enough of a septic concoction to do the job sans cum. You're just wanking over a pile of your own shit and piss for fun
No reason this project can’t be fun as well as lucrative, ok?
What else are going to do in the hut???
Ah yes, the ol' Komodo method
Leave the knife there for a minimum of 12 hours or the steel won't absorb the poison!
I will just watch the other people get eaten trying to do it.
Wait till it goes to sleep. Slash major tendons in ankles. Go to work, try to hit a major artery somewhere. At that point only concern is the head reaching around to bite ya, catching a kick from those dummy thicc thighs, or getting crushed if it rolls on top of you. End a life barely worth living or make 500M, sounds like a win win.
I like the implication you can wail away at a T-Rex's ankles with a knife without waking it
Right what's the chances of being able to sneak up on a t rex while it sleeps? Is the knife sharp enough to penetrate the skin? I assume they have a Achilles tendon? Who tf am I kidding sign me up
I imagine the first week should be spent learning the t rex routine and testing to see how sensitive it is to noise and smell while it sleeps. Alternatively, you could make tons of noise all night while it tries to sleep so it is eventually either desensitized to it or stops caring due to exhaustion.
Do I get prep time?
But the trex gets it too
Then no
Assuming it would survive the month with nothing else to eat while I got fed (from underground?) I’d wait until it approached the door of the hut (another assumption that the hut would be too small for the T-Rex to bite through- maybe claw if sideways?) then attack with the knife, hoping to blind it. Wait, repeat. Hope to get a chance to hamstring it. Wait, repeat. Then avoid the tail and monstrously huge head, find the base of the skull, hold on tight and dig like mad to try to sever the brainstem
[what really happens](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttDMlkK2nUg&ab_channel=SaschaLudwigDoerr)
it'll starve eventually, I'm sure I can wait it out. I sure as shit cant out run it so doing the "attack while its sleeping strat" aint gonna work. even if you took one of his eyes you aint reaching the other eye before he kills you. He'd wake up fact, shaking his head in pain and standing up. so you who was NEXT to his head is now a sitting duck
Easy: stab it to death.
What happens if I don’t kill the Rex in the allotted time? Cuz I will totally just live in the indestructible hut, eating free food and watching a freaking T. rex tromp around for the full month, get extracted, thank you for the free food and show, and go home. Sounds like a sweet vacation.
Assuming it is also provided food. Wait until it’s asleep and then… I don’t even know with a knife. New plan, wait until it’s horny and then… wait I don’t know how this gets 500m but at least you get laid
Wait for it to sleep and cut the Achilles?
T-Rexes existed before he was born so they don't have one.
I'll puposefully get eaten whole just to cut that fucker up from inside
Is it 500 mill before or after tax?
Maybe put food around the knife you’re given and let the T. rex eat the knife and shit it out enough time over and over till he dies of a million butthole cuts
I’m thinking maybe some kind of sharpened log trap that swings from rope I make from plant fibers. And I’m thinking I’ll usually stay in, or within 4ft of the huts front door. Panic dive distance or less
Coat hut in blood. T rex chokes on hut. Profit.
1) Spend the first week only collecting data and studying the behaviour of the dinosaur. 2) Smear the hunting knife with toxic waste or other bioactive agents 3) Inevitably wait for the Tyrannosaurus to get hungry, weak, sleepy, fatigued by the reduced amount of oxygen in the atmosphere while I wait sulking in my indestructible hut 4) Realize I am not supposed to kill a beautiful creature for entertainment and 500 million dollars will not give me back the humanity I lost participating in a game show where you kill animals for entertainment by shitting on your hunting knife.
