Reply to comment by could_use_a_snack in Sauropod specimen found in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region may have had the longest neck of any known dinosaur — measuring about 15.1 m, more than the height of the Hollywood sign by marketrent

The structure of the bones can tell us the shape of the neck. But this reconstruction is not based on the full skeleton just some neck bones and skull. The size estimate is extrapolated from some.pretty meager data. I'd take it with a grain of salt
