Baby Dinosaur Video From Guatemala Shocks The Internet
do a double take: to quickly look at something again because you are surprised or confused by what you saw the first time
People couldn’t believe their eyes when a strange video from Guatemala appeared online. In the video, a group of strange creatures walked near an ancient temple. They had long necks and looked just like baby dinosaurs!
Millions of people did a double take after watching the video. No, it wasn’t some advanced AI-generated video or Hollywood special effects. The animals in the video were actually coatis, small mammals that live in Central and South America. The reason they looked like dinosaurs was because the video was reversed. This made their long tails look like the long necks of a brontosaurus, confusing viewers around the world.
This isn’t the first time coatis have caused confusion. A similar video of them reverse-running on a beach went viral in 2022. See for yourself why millions were fooled in the videos below.
