The work originates from a YTMND site created by user ALMusic on August 12, 2006. The author used the clip where Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler discover a brachiosaurus in Jurassic Park. He added comedic lyrics sung to John Williams’ theme. The video spread massively on YouTube. A notable recreation was uploaded by wolfer339 on November 7, 2006. This version used Garry’s Mod and Half-Life 2 characters to mimic the scene. The singer remains unknown today. No link to a TV show has been established.
