Why that title?


Did I miss something? What was the relevance of the number 13 in this? Is it just that Sue's discovery brought about a lot of bad luck for some people?

If I'm not mistaken, there were 12 T-rex dinosaurs that have been excavated before and "Sue" was the dinosaur 13. It was also the only one who was almost complete. I think it says that more than 80% of the actual dinosaur was there.

The above poster is correct. In the beginning of the documentary it is mentioned that only 12 T-Rex skeletons had been discovered. Sue was number 13 to be found.

She was also the largest discovered.

There's a kind of freedom in being completely screwed, because you know things can't get worse.😂

Are you sure you watched it from the beginning? It's explained in text at the beginning which segways into the title.
