This one's a real pet peeve of mine.  The _T. rex_ always sounded like it 
was running on pile drivers.  Any potential prey within miles would have 
beaten a hasty retreat at the sound of those booming footfalls.  Also, 
tyrannosaurs had springy, flexible ankles, which would have made it very 
difficult, if not indeed impossible, for a _T. rex_ to make that much noise, 
even if it wanted to.
