The largest species of Mosasaurus reached lengths of 17m: so this is pushing the limits a bit more, at 25 percent oversized, but acceptable for storytelling purposes, guessing prehistoric creatures were sufficiently huge and crazy, that even Hollywood didn't feel the need to make them "larger than life." Mosasaurus length = screen length ratio × human height = 28.08cm / 2.36cm × 1.8m = 21.4m. It should be noted that the dinosaurs in the Jurassic Park film stories were created through DNA cloning and splicing. Therefore, any changes to how these dinosaurs actually appeared can be attributed to the genetic make-up of different animals going into each dinosaur species. As Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neill) explained at the beginning of Jurassic Park III (2001), John Hammond and his team created theme park monsters, not real dinosaurs.
