Could dinosaurs breathe fire like the Wawel Dragon?  Why are they associated with dragons? Certainly, Dr. Jacek Piotr's new discoveries support this unpopular hypothesis. It's a well-known fact that digestion produces intestinal gases. Along with ingested food, air also enters the digestive system, reacting to create a mixture of gases in the intestines, dominated by carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and highly flammable methane. Fermentative processes caused by symbiotic bacteria contribute to this. The largest amounts of intestinal gases accumulate in the colon. Most intestinal gases are absorbed by the bloodstream, but due to the low activity of dinosaurs, the absorption of gases through the blood was reduced to a minimum. The resting phase favored the accumulation of gases, which had to find an outlet from the body through the upper parts of the digestive system. The anatomical structure of dinosaurs facilitated this phenomenon. Significantly larger amounts of gases were produced in the largest herbivorous dinosaurs. Their diet caused dehydration. Dinosaurs, lying lazily basking in the sun, had dry mouths, their teeth were almost completely dry. Thus, when gases, especially methane, escaped through the mouth and came into contact with the dried, massive teeth that could strike sparks with the immense force of the jaws, the highly flammable mixture of intestinal gases ignited. Thus, from the mouths of dinosaurs, larger or smaller tongues of fire occasionally burst forth. Herbivores are more dangerous to environment! There were a vast number of herbivorous dinosaurs on Earth, and they were the largest creatures to inhabit our planet. The amount of gas they produced was enormous. However, it's important to remember that not all of this gas was expelled through their mouths, and only a small percentage was actually ignited by sparks from their dry teeth. The vast majority of this digestive byproduct inevitably escaped into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming even in prehistoric times. This fact could completely overturn the theory that dinosaurs became extinct due to a massive meteor impact. It's quite possible that dinosaurs died out as a result of a significant increase in global temperatures, which not only disrupted the functioning of proteins in living organisms to the point of denaturation but also relentlessly melted glaciers, flooding large areas of land and drowning everything in their path. As a result, life could only survive in water. The extinction of dinosaurs stabilized the Earth's climate. Dinosaurs did not produce intestinal gases that caused the greenhouse effect, leading to a decrease in global temperature. Life was able to emerge from the ocean depths and return to land. Working to confirm the theory. Dr. Jacek Piotr's entire laboratory is working to confirm this bold theory. So far, all experiments seem to support this theory, but we will have to wait a few more years for definitive results. International cooperation between scientific institutions can significantly accelerate the confirmation of this bold hypothesis and cause us to view the history of our planet and its ancient and current inhabitants in a completely different way. Fortunately, although humans are so numerous, they are not as large as dinosaurs, which means that the amount of intestinal gas they produce is significantly smaller. So the prognosis for the Earth is optimistic. The introduction of modern drugs that reduce the uncontrolled release of gases in the digestive system also prevents a catastrophe that could lead to the destruction of our civilization. Move on.
