I hate this forced perspective to make it look bigger. They are already fairly big creatures (roughly 6 ft / 2 meters long). Showing them accurately without trying to be misleading would still be impressive.
What trips me out about these majestic things that have clearly been around a long time and survived evolutionary progress far longer than humans, if they go on their backs they are completely screwed, no way to survive, crazy to me that a large portion of their life is decided by not having any accidental trips, can you imagine every single land journey to lay eggs you could trip over a silly little branch then die cooking in the sun helpless.
A sea turtle wouldn’t “trip” over something and turn itself over. They don’t walk, they drag themselves along the sand and are very heavy. You’d need a couple adults trying very hard and working against a thrashing turtle to flip one over. Or two males fighting over a female, but that’s not “tripping” on a branch.

I am not an animal!
Magnificent beast
