Not only could you outrun a T-rex, most people could out walk him, apparently.

However, there is more studying to be done.  A flexible tail may have allowed Rex to run faster than is currently thought, maybe 25 mph is not out of the question, close to the 30mph speeds of the 90's.  Coming full circle perhaps.  So those galloping ceratopsians and quick running hadrosaurs better keep an eye out..

Just wait for the next study to challenge that.

Also, does the article serirously claim that Jurassic Park is a Warner Bros movie?
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no
