A 37ft neck and weighing in at 65 tonnes - the equivalent of seven Tyrannosaurus Rex - the 85ft "Dreadnoughtus schrani" was one of the largest dinosaurs to walk the earth and is the biggest land animal for which a body mass can be accurately calculated, say scientists.

I wonder what the odds are on something even bigger being discovered in the future.

    HOW could they accurately determine the mass? They can't even do that with HUMAN bones! HECK, they STILL can't do that with people that are LIVING! They have to weigh a person on a scale, allowing for things that may affect the weight. And even THEN, they can't determine percentage of fat.
