If dinosaurs and humans coexisted and died in the Noachian flood then we would see their remains mixed together in the same geological layers. But we don't see that anywhere on the planet.
If you're a young earth creationist, how do you explain that absence?

Oh sorry, i thought you were joking. But yeah, that is an argument that creationists make and they appear to have stopped at the first thought that popped into their mind. Hydrological sorting they call it. But it immediately falls apart when we realize that while many dinosaurs were massive, many others were no larger than a chicken or a dog or a cow.
I think it's kind of niche and also not as popular on youtube as...whatever most people like to watch on youtube...makeup tutorials? lol. But there is a fairly healthy arena of debate on the subject. Not a balanced of evidence, mind you. But there are still a few high profiled creationists who vigorously (though typically not skillfully) debate this subject.
@Pikachu well this aint my kinda subject. But i did hear about religious people argumenting on fossils and stuff. Never heard about the coexistence between dinos and people tho. Didnt give much attention to it cause just doesnt sound one bit convincing.
Well even among Christians it's a fringe belief these days. Most Christians are happy to accept the evidence that science reveals. That's why most scientists who identify as Christian accept evolution and an old Earth.
