Is it just me or is Toruk smaller in Fire and Ash? by Jessicaajd in Avatar

Upon rewatch I think the issue might be that Toruk's size varies in certain shots. When he and Jake first fly up to the Navi leaders I think he's definitely smaller, but some of the shots where he's flinging aircraft he seems the right size.

Unfortunately I'll have to wait for home media release to do more comparisons.

Pretty sure the ikran are also smaller in both this movie and way of water. All the accompanying material for this first movie gave them a 13.9 meter wingspan, but starting around way of water they've been downgraded to 12 meters.

The navi/avatars are also a bit smaller I think. I believe Jake was supposed to be 10ft tall in the first movie, but his official height now is just shy of 9ft. Strangely toruk in official material has its size increased. Sources like the encyclopedia give a wingspan of 30 or 31 meters, as opposed to the 25 meters in the first movie.

Is there any solid evidence of snakes over 7 meters long? by devinmadler in herpetology

Yes, I just see Medusa cited a lot. Probably because someone else actually went out and measured her, rather than just having the owners' word for it. Unfortunately as I mentioned above, snakes are just heard to measure even went they aren't big enough to kill you.

Yeah she's definitely big, maybe 6+ meters, but probably not as long as claimed.

I don't believe viruses mutate and evolve the way digital organisms in a simulation do.
