I was completely terrified by Alfred Hitchcock's film when I was young

The Birds is a 1963 American natural horror-thriller film produced and directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Loosely based on the 1952 short story of the same name by Daphne du Maurier, it focuses on a series of sudden and unexplained violent bird attacks on the people of Bodega Bay, California, over the course of a few days.

Since then I learned that birds are actual living dinosaurs, so it's even worse.

Lol! Well, that does kinda put the film in a new light.

But forreal, if birds decided to turn on us, I'd be absolutely terrified.

For real, Jurassic Parks lied to us,
Only the non-avian dinosaurs died
Dinosaurs are already among us, they are in our trees and in our food.

OTOH the cool Pterosaurs and marine reptile are not dinosaurs, which is sad :'(

I learned that from the french whisperer (content in english), my favorite youtuber and an incredible content creator which does at the same time science, pedagogy and ASMR
