ABANDONED DINOSAUR MUSEUM PACKED WITH FOSSILS AND A T-REX FROZEN IN TIME<br />WITH PIX AND VID<br />By Shuk Yee Tsang<br />An urban explorer has uncovered a long-forgotten dinosaur museum complete with fossils, skeletons and a towering T-rex display.<br />The footage was filmed by Bob Thissen, 40, an animator and urban explorer from the Netherlands, during an exploration of a seemingly abandoned dinosaur museum in China.<br />Accompanied by fellow explorer Andrea, Thissen wandered through the silent halls of the former attraction, which once showcased prehistoric life on a massive scale.<br />Inside the museum, more than 100 skeletons and fossils remain scattered throughout multiple rooms.<br />Despite years of abandonment, many of the exhibits are still intact, creating an eerie, time-capsule atmosphere.<br />Still, the scale of the location and the sheer number of displays left behind make it a rare and striking discovery.<br />The highlight of the exploration is a T-rex skeleton dominating one of the main rooms, giving the abandoned museum the surreal feeling of a movie set frozen in time.<br />Bob Thissen said: “Inside we find a lot of skeletons, fossils and even a T-rex. It felt like stepping into the movie A Night in the Museum.<br />“When I found out there was an abandoned dinosaur museum, it attracted my attention because it was something I never explored before.<br />“When I was a kid, I was really into dinosaurs.<br />“There were easily over 100 skeletons and fossils in this abandoned museum.<br />“The highlight of the location was the skeleton of a T-rex. The bones were not real, but still impressive to see.<br />“The museum also housed some real fossils, which were amazing to observe.<br />“The skeletons upstairs felt a bit cheap and outdated. That’s probably why the museum got closed, it was too old-fashioned."<br />One viewer said: I can't say if I'm impressed, terrified or just sad that a museum got abandoned.”<br />Another viewer said, “Every abandoned place is a museum, but this was actually one before it was abandoned, that’s crazy.”<br />A third viewer said: “As a huge paleo-fan this is extra cool.”<br />END
