Ah well according to my niece (who was very proud of knowing this "fact"):

"A giant rock fell from space. And it squished them all."

*imagines all the dinosaurs stood in one spot on earth thinking 'ooo what's that thing hurtling towards us?'*

^ LMAO.

Now a bigger ques.. was it a comet or a meteorite?

And YES. There is a difference. A comet is made up of ice and dust, while a meteorite is made up of mostly rock.. I think (tries to think back to astronomy unit in science.)

I think it was a comet, cuz I think the comet caused the ice age, which caused the dinos to die.

Well, I have a slightly different story to tell.

I believe Lord Shiva opened up his third eye, which caused the Earth to have disasterious climates. The dinosaurs could not handle such harsh weather, hence ended up as all of them dead.
