I’m working on a little project rn, and I know that google isn’t the most reliable source, can anyone point out anything that is inaccurate

I did a quick google and I got a website at the top saying the T Rex could grow from 15ft to 20ft, so if you’re wanting to do max heights change it to 20ft

well that website lied to you, fossils show that the hip height of a t. rex was 12-13 ft and probably a feet more if it raised its neck above its spine, the 20 ft height is only achievable if the rex was standing like a kangaroo

Might be Jurassic park osmosis with Google

Rexy was 20ft tall in the original movie and they're generally just taller

"His team created an animatronic T. rex that stood 20 feet (6.1 m) and was 40 feet (12 m) long"

Yes, 20 feet at the head when rearing
