Get comfortable you guys. This is our longest and most epic episode yet, and yes.. there is a fight in the end 😉

Credit to all the people who came together to make this from Bo at Evolution Square to all the peeps at Goji center, I'm so excited for the future of this channel and all it has to offer

I have to correct something you missed in the bite section. Mosasaur has a secondary inner top jaw. This jaw moved independently of it's primary jaws, and was used to shred prey while the primary jaws held the prey. If you look closely at the inner top mouth of INGEN's Mosa, you see it also has this second jaw. This makes the Mosa's jaws and biting strategy different. The meg will bite and back off, a hit and run tactic. Mosa will hang on for a bit, using it's inner jaw to shred any part it bites. This will most likely result in more blood loss, and potentially more debilitating damage.

PS: Rewatching this, it's possible the mosa had Orca DNA, which would have drastically affected it's intelligence, allowing it to make smarter attack moves.

I play a game called Beasts of Bermuda, where you can be like, 20 different dinosaurs and the Mosasaurus is easily the biggest threat in the entire game. I remember walking along the beach with my herd, and a full sized Apatosaurus was grabbed and pulled back into the ocean by a mosa player. It was freaking insane.

Goji Center never disappoints with his battle face-offs can’t wait to see which prehistoric beast deserves to be crowned deadliest predator in the ocean!

[DawnTyrantEo]

Fun fact- in real life there's actually evidence to suggest that some mosasaurs specialised in ramming attacks! The mosasaur Tylosaurus was found to have an increasingly large and robust bony protuberance on its upper snout as it aged; this protuberance would have helped tylosaurs ram their prey with increasing amounts of force as they grew larger- perfect for a specialist big game hunter, while Mosasaurus' crushing bite would have made it a generalist of both large vertebrates and ammonites.

Basically the same fight as Great White Shark vs Saltwater Crocodile from an old show called Animal Face-Off. Right down to the absurd frontal charge.

This is like the modern successor to Animal Face-Off and Jurassic Fight Club.

[kinggojidorah]

I would like to point out 1 detail and that is that the Meg’s fins are a huge weak point, even more so than the mosa’s flippers because if it loses even 1 whether it’s a pectoral fin or the dorsal fin it’s dead due to the inability to balance its self. It would basically just be spiraling like a football as it swims forward until it dies. Many animals use this weakness to hunt and/or defend against modern sharks

[DawnFire]

Fish vs lizard, what a great way to kick off this fantastic series. I thought “40 minutes is a long time” but then I found myself so invested and here I am 40 mins later just so impressed

[Royal-Rover]

I like how this channel takes the science far deeper than even the authors of the sci-fi creatures did. This video reminds me of the great white versus saltwater croc episode in the _Animals Face-off_ series, especially when _Mossasurus_ is also a reptile; the result & rationale are also similar.
To me, both in real paleontology & this sci-fi scenario, the megalodon is undisputed victor with aforementioned reasons. That battle with the kraken in the movie alone is enough to tell the toughness of this creature!

[noelopez]

The fact that this is 40 minutes instantly tells me it’s going to be good.

[theaverageviewer]

In my opinion, literally all of the monsters in the Monster Hunter franchise would be amazing in one of these videos. How would Deviljho handle against 2005 King Kong? Or how dangerous Dalamadur could be if it was real?

[soulslayers]

I’d like to point out that if the mosa did stay around whales and communicate as you speculate then the whales would likely alert the mosa to the megs presence if not just put out distress signals. Which could give the mosa an advantage in either being prepared for an attack or set one up itself given its intelligence.

[minibat]

An interesting thing to consider in this fight that wasn't covered was the actual evidence surrounding megs actual hunting strategy. Evidence suggests they were ambush predators who commonly targeted whales bu charging from underneath straight up, resulting in it ramming them, severely breaking their bones and inflicting massive damage via their bite. This would have likely been a very good strategy against the mosa who would be unable to look below them.

[erikkilla]

I can totally understand the analysis. And it is a great work of art. I love how goji center went over almost all the most important parts and made all understandable. But I must say that they forgot the Megs biggest weakness. It's tail. Sharks swim with their tail and that to at least 60%. So getting even injured in that area would mean certain doom to the shark. The mosa is going to target the tail since it is the thinnest part of the Meg which means that its vulnerability is much higher which will cost it its life. So it comes down to the first ambush of the Meg. But in all straight up battles the Mosa should actually win since it will disable its opponents movement.
But that just comes from me. Still love the video.

[Makaylabug]

I love how Goji center uses current animals attributes to figure out extinct animals attributes

[Sharkgamer]

A battle between two of my favorite creatures!

This is already my new favorite video from goji center🔥

[HappyV]

I feel like this battle would have been different because mosa isn’t a hit and runner, it has a second pair of jaws (like an eels) that it uses to bite and tear off chunks of flesh from its prey. While its main jaws are mainly used to hold and grasp onto prey, not deal quick bites. I feel like the mosa would have won at the point were it bit the gills because it would’ve used its second pair of jaws to start tearing away at the sharks gills, while the mosa would be able to hold onto and swim with the shark, while it bled out and possibly died due to the damage to its gills.

[Mr._Tarbosaurus]

It's an excellent choice to choose The Meg vs Ingen Mosa as the first episode of the Face off series! It is also a virtual confrontation between two marine predators that terrorized the sea in Earth's history, but I like the fact that they carefully analyzed the exaggerated descriptions in the movie in a duel that will cool down the hot summer. I look forward to the second match~!!
