Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

We'd hope that if you walked past a man bearing an uncanny resemblance to Jurassic Park character John Hammond that you would react in exactly the same way this man did.

A guy named Mark, of Australian comedy duo The Royal Stampede, caught this video in Adelaide which sees him walk past a man kitted out in a white suit and hat extremely similar to the clothes worn by Richard Attenborough's character in Steven Spielberg's 1995 blockbuster.

Combine this with the fact the man was wearing glasses and - let's be honest - is a ringer for the late Attenborough, what happened next was completely warranted. See for yourself below:

Attenborough reprised his role of Hammond for Spielberg's sequel The Lost World in 1997.

A hugely successful continuation of the franchise, Jurassic World, arrived last year directed by Colin Trevorrow who will next direct Star Wars: Episode IX.

A Jurassic World sequel will be released in 2018.

If anything, we're just happy this video's given us the excuse to dig out this classic.
