If the upper size estimates for Bruhathkayosaurus are accurate, it would even rival the size of the largest recorded blue whale. Mature blue whales can reach 30 m (98 ft) in length, and the record-holder blue whale was recorded at 173 tonnes (190 short tons), [23] with estimates of up to 199 tonnes (220 short tons). [24]
The heaviest blue whale on record weighed 190 metric tons (190 long tons; 210 short tons), [12] and the heaviest dinosaur known from reasonably good remains, Argentinosaurus, weighed 80 to 100 metric tons (79 to 98 long tons; 88 to 110 short tons), although if the size estimates can be validated, it could still be lighter than Bruhathkayosaurus ...

In the study, they found that this dinosaur was not T. rex after all but a never-before-seen sister species, Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis. This species was older and perhaps even larger than the T. rex.
If true, it would make Bruhathkayosaurus the single largest terrestrial animal to have walked the earth and would have rivalled the largest blue whale recorded. [ 409 ] BYU 9024, a massive cervical vertebra found in Utah , [ 410 ] may belong to a Barosaurus lentus [ 411 ] [ 412 ] or Supersaurus vivianae [ 413 ] of a huge size, possibly 45–48 ...
