Fair enough, from my very limited research (Chicago museum has an exhibit about this exact thing), some animals use a 4-bar linkage to maximize force. I think Trex was among them.
Bite pressure would be a more interesting comparison IMO. Of course a Trex is gonna have a massive bite force because it’s dominated by size.
It’s also got some trick jaws, it’s not 100% from size alone. Like dunkleosteus, which had a novel jaw that amplified the force.
