How big is Argentinosaurus?
For this comparison, Argentinosaurus measures 35 m in length (114.8 ft). Museum reconstruction estimate; known remains are incomplete.
Large dinosaurs are reconstructed from fossils, so estimates carry uncertainty.
Put the measurement in perspective
The recorded length is 20.588 times the height of A 1.70 m person (1.7 m). This is a ratio of the labelled linear dimensions. It does not describe weight, area or volume.
Use the interactive comparison to see both drawings on one shared scale. You can choose another reference or enter your own height. If the sizes are very far apart, the smaller object may be almost invisible; an intermediate reference makes the progression easier to inspect.

Check the convention
Fossil-based dimensions are reconstruction estimates. Another specimen or scientific interpretation may give a different value.
