finding a 27 meter monster just because a local villager noticed some huge bones near a pond is wild. that leg bone next to him is literally as tall as a full grown human.
according to the article:
"The newly identified dinosaur, named Nagatitan chaiyaphumensis, is the largest-ever dinosaur found in South-East Asia. A team of researchers from University College London and Thailand identified the species from fossils found beside a pond in northeastern Thailand. Experts estimate the long-necked sauropod measured an incredible 27 meters (88ft) in length and weighed around 27 tonnes — as much as nine adult Asian elephants."
