00:00Imagine holding a material made from the protein of a T-Rex.
00:12Not plastic, not fossil, but real bio-engineered leather grown in a lab.
00:20That's not science fiction anymore.
00:23A new partnership between BML, Lab Grown Leather Ltd, and the Organic Company has just unveiled their first ever T-Rex leather.
00:34A material combining ancient biology with cutting-edge biotechnology.
00:40Here's how it happened.
00:44Scientists took a rare sample of fossilized collagen protein from a T-Rex fossil.
00:50This actual biological residue preserved over 80 million years.
00:56Then, they decoded it.
00:59Using AI, they mapped the protein structure, rebuilt the missing parts, and created a synthetic version of the original T-Rex protein.
01:09That was step one.
01:12Step two.
01:13Bioprinting.
01:14They embedded this protein into living cells and cultivated them into sheets of lab-grown leather.
01:21An entirely new material with a prehistoric signature of dinosaur skin.
01:27The final product is what they call post-animal leather.
01:33It's biologically authentic, but no animals were harmed, no land cleared, and no toxic tanning involved.
01:43This is different from synthetic leather.
01:46It's not just a plastic alternative.
01:49It's real leather, built cell by cell.
01:52Only the animal is extinct.
01:54VML calls it a provocation.
01:58What if luxury didn't come at a cost?
02:01What if the rarest material on earth wasn't mined or hunted, but cultured in a lab and entirely ethical?
02:11T-Rex leather is still experimental.
02:14But the vision is clear.
02:17From designer handbags to automotive interiors, it could redefine the material future of fashion, furniture, and beyond.
02:27We are now at a point where 80 million-year-old biology meets machine learning, synthetic cells, and climate-conscious design.
02:36It's not about bringing dinosaurs back to life.
02:39It's about reimagining how we make the things be valuable.
02:43The past left behind a blueprint.
02:48Science just found a way to wear it.
