Now natural history enthusiasts can join the [broadcaster](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfh-64s5va4 "undefined") on a trip back in time to study the largest dinosaur, or animal for that matter, that ever walked the Earth: titanosaur. Viewers can watch the titanosaur trudge through a forest in virtual reality with a 360**°** perspective, while Attenborough introduces the massive creature. The 4-minute video is also available in resolutions up to 4K. It accompanies a longer BBC program called [_Attenborough and the Giant Dinosaur_](http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03dwy5z "undefined")_._ As Attenborough explains in his soothing tone, the 70-ton titanosaur was about 40 m (131 ft.) long, stood as tall as a five-storey building and had a heart that could pump 90 liters of blood with a single beat. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4233484/sir-david-attenborough-virtual-reality-video-titanosaur/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4233484/sir-david-attenborough-virtual-reality-video-titanosaur/"},"headline":"See the Largest Dinosaur in 360-Degree Virtual Reality With Sir David Attenborough","datePublished":"2016-02-23T07:19:00.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T08:07:27.987Z","description":"The titanosaur stood as tall as a five-storey building","url":"https://time.com/4233484/sir-david-attenborough-virtual-reality-video-titanosaur/","keywords":["Virtual Reality","Tech","animals","video"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Mark Rivett-Carnac","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/mark-rivett-carnac/"}],"articleSection":"Science","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/science/","name":"Science"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/virtual-reality/","name":"Virtual Reality"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4233484/sir-david-attenborough-virtual-reality-video-titanosaur/","name":"See the Largest Dinosaur in 360-Degree Virtual Reality With Sir David Attenborough"}}]}] ```
