A T-Rex has stormed through the American Ninja Warrior assault course, performing surprisingly well for a creature weighing five tonnes.

Of course, it wasn’t a real dinosaur (which would be around 65 million years old) but you have to admire his skills in the inflatable costume.

Will his small arms be his downfall? Unfortunately, the dinosaur didn’t make it all the way round with one commentator saying “It wasn’t a meteor that ended the dinosaurs, it was the spin cycle.”

Watch him training here:

The show, which also has a UK version on ITV, is based on the Japanese show Sasuke and sees competitors trying to beat the clock in a series of tough obstacle courses.

The video, which appeared on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior, has more than 44,000 shares and 17,000 likes.
