There's this notion from media or imagination that bigger cats would bite your hand or something which makes you think defence is possible.
Irl even if you weight more than it he will definitely go for your neck front or back and you will most likely be dead before you know it.
I really don't know how i could survive lion or tiger charge. I will sure be knocked over that that claws, teath and mass... no way. Even if I tried 100 times I see no way. In theory if I go for eyes or something but in practice no way.
fricking anything. I can make napalm. without napalm, bare-handed? I would do my best to run. I can't run? Intimidate them using my voice to have them run (worked on a brown bear once). No, intimidation? Use improvised weaponry and would try to disable their sensory organs: eyes, ears, nose. Try to diable movement (attacking feet and whatnot). Likely, the result ia injury or death. We have slow twitch muscle fibers and hands for a reason. Use them. It has made us Earth's lifeform most superior at violence. I am only thinking about land animals
I'd say a medium/large dog or a mountain lion, and even then I'd definitely get some injuries and I might even lose.
Largest I would say is a llama, I'd struggle but I can see myself taking one down
It left out an important factor: where will the fight happen? In a cage? Forest? Desert? Open field? I will consider it as open field with no rocks to throw, no trees to climb or improvise weapons, no sand to throw on the animal eyes, in that case Croc probably is the strongest animal on the list I could beat consistently. I would just harass it until it is exhausted. If we include animals not on the list the strongest animals I could defeat would be a blue whale… still considering a fight on open field.
I am 6'9 and workout five days a week, so I feel like I could take a few Animals. Since it would be life or death, I'd try to grapple them from an advantaged position and gouge eyes/throat if I couldn't scurry for a rock or log, or better, carry a real weapon.
I'd be terrified fighting against Pongo, basically four arms and canines.
It could just gnaw you to death while your limbs are held by its arms and legs.
Luckily they are basically forest buddhas.
They are more dangerous, but it just look like a regular bear. That Pongo monkey tho, they are something else.
They are huge and look wild as frick. Just imagine a mad and crazy violent version of them.
apes can't swim, anon - their muscles are significantly denser than humans which causes them to sink like stones. this is a common zoo enclosure type for large primates especially, in chester zoo in the uk the chimp enclosure has about 25 to 30 chimps who are only 10 feet of water away from people. this also applies to a number of monkey primates, i think spider monkeys also can't swim. island exhibits are fairly common because it means you don't have a giant cage in the way of the view
most of that clip is pretty tame, but when it got to the elephant i had to take a break. something about it going down drove home the absolute unimaginable hellscape it must be to be pierced on all sides by agile screaming apes and rapidly exiting from this plane of existence
The Elephant collapsing suddenly made me get chills. It started with it just casually pulling the spears out so I had no clue how far they penetrated. Then boom, blood spurting out everywhere. Some spear-point got close to the eye and the Elephant stopped for a bit and just died.
hmm, I googled it after writing my post and it seems while cat scratches are extremely painful they're not that deep and can't draw a lot of blood. So maybe blood wouldn't be everywhere after all, you would just feel very, very sore.
Cat claws are razor sharp, they are like knives. Clearly you have never been scratched badly by a cat.
I would ultimate expect a healthy adult male to come on top but it would not be pretty. There'd be blood everywhere. The pain would be unfathomable if a cat got you in your legs and then went to work on your face and you would rely on life or death hormones and instinct to kick in to not pass out or be overwhelmed by pain.
The best hope of the cat would be to slash a vital organ like the heart, otherwise it would rely on general blood loss. The problem for the cat is cats also get tired and the adult male should have enough in him to catch the cat and pound his head and kill him.
You must be a woman or extremely sheltered. Human kicks would frick up cats beyond repair and leave them brain-damaged. Blunt force trauma from humans beating the frick out of cats is assured in a fight. Humans are made to knock out fully grown humans. Imagine a full force fist or foot in a cat's face.
She's also using a weapon and she also has defensive armour with her clothes. Rats have strong jaws that can gnaw through metal, they could easily gnaw through bone.
A human is going to have a hard time actually catching the rat, they're going to have to wait it out until the rat is super tired, get its chance, pick it up, and then smash its head. But how many times will it have been bitten by then? Rats are known to harbour every disease known to man - what happens there? If the rat can keep things going for many hours, and infects the human early on with something very nasty, by the time the rat is killed and the human can get medical attention it might be too late.
That's a lot of words to explain how much you're coping over the fact that the WOMAN stayed in the ring longer than the """"man"""" did. He was a pussy.
The only real way an unarmed man can kill an elephant is to keep baiting it into charging then quickly side stepping it until it finally collapses of exhaustion, then burying it in dirt since strangling it with vine branches and leverage would count as weaponry
I could go unarmed until large dog, then it’s about how lucky I can get killing the bastard. I would probably die from infection afterwards that’s for sure.
As for being with a spear, I could kill everything easily until I get to gorilla. Then it’s really about skill and luck.
The big dog is a roll of the dice on whether or not he goes for your throat. Dogs usually go for your arms or face if you're standing your ground, and will target the ankle if you're running away. If it latches onto a limb and not your neck, then it's up to you how you respond, with good instincts you a grown man under 60 can certainly choke a large dog to death or even rip open it's jugular with his teeth if he's hard enough
They must have asked the question in a moronic way. No one can seriously think they'd lose in a fight to the death with a rat unless they're paraplegic.
The main cause of people being seriously injured or dying to animals is almost always lack of respect/underestimating them and overestimating yourself. Humans tend to be arrogant as frick.
100%. I would argue the single biggest cause of animal attacks other than being close to their young/den, is humans instinctually look everything and everyone in the eyes and hardly ever look away. Animals don't do that unless they're thinking about fighting you, or if they absolutely love you. The same goes for showing our teeth, which is a sign of happiness in humans but aggression in everything else. You don't have to be an expert, I was taught all this as a child. I vividly remember my dad teaching me to slowly hold a relaxed hand out to strange dogs who approach. Lack of education is the real problem
Communication is one of the pillars of humanity. Direct eye contact only increases communication, especially since it allows us to simultaneously observe facial expressions; but many animals don't have the intelligence to understand what is being conveyed since they themselves don't have such a reliance on communication for survival, and so they interpret it as aggression by default.
Dogs have been bred, and are raised,to understand human facial expressions to a point. Your own dog doesn't take eye contact as aggression from you, though they will still look away before you do, but if you stare fixedly at them with an angry expression they will also communicate that you are making them nervous with your aggression
>if you were unharmed
Am I allowed to use makeshift tools/rocks/throw dirt in their eyes if the opportunity presents itself? Or use some kind of bare minimum protection like clothes and shoes? Going butt naked in a perfectly flat concrete arena against anything above cobra would be a terrible idea, but I might have a chance against chimp, roo, wolf, and croc, if I'm allowed to use my brain and the surroundings in their habitats.
Mind you, I wouldn't WANT to go 1v1 against a chimp in any circumstance, but I might not die if I'm able to stab his throat with a pointy stick before it eats my face.
The rest is just too large for a human to do any damage without an actual weapon.
>Am I allowed to use makeshift tools/rocks/throw dirt in their eyes if the opportunity presents itself?
No you fight it unarmed like the rule states and Mother Nature intended.
The whole premise is fricked. Humans literally evolved to use tools, it's in our DNA. Regardless, the croc, bears, big cats, apes, and of course the elephant are the only ones that pose a serious threat.
Of the animals listed the king cobra seems like the realistic max. If you can grab it behind the head the fight is over though that might be tough to do against the really big 15+' long guys.
Do what the Mongoose does. Tire it out and then break its skull. Cobras have terrible stamina regeneration. Once their glycogen reserves are exhausted there's not much it can do.
They weigh like 10 to 15 pounds, punch one when it swoops and you'll do a number on it, if you can get a solid grip on one of its legs, it's all over for the bird.
you ever thought about the fact that theres a lot of smaller animals that can inflict a lot more damage to another human being that you than humans can, bare handed of course.
Robbing humans of tool-use, tactics and teamwork is like wiring a wolf's jaws shut and sending it into a barren cell alone to fight a tiger. It's nonsensical, and beside is he wasn't so concerned for the birds wellbeing he could've sank his teeth into the back of it's neck and snapped it's spinal chord

Yeah good luck reacting to the harpy's lightning-fast movement on time to do that
Unless you are naked, tf is an Eagle going to do if you hold up a jacket or shirt as its swoops down on you? You can disable and kill a swooping eagle unharmed if you see it comming.
Kangaroo is easier than a chimp to beat. Kangaroo just gotta watch the feet and it's really just a big push rather than a strike. Chimpanzee will frick you up unless you're also going at full moron strength and not just curled up praying it's satisfied with just biting your dick and hands off.
Anyway safely. Large dog yeah no problem done that enough times. Even if they bite you just strangle or lay knee down on back of neck and kill slowly. Cobra I'm guessing like any other snake. So id say realistically cobra is my pb. But could also frick up a kangaroo
The largest I could beat is probably a cheetah. They are light and have very little muscle mass. Strongest would be a medium sized dog. Anything bigger and stronger than that would end me, assuming I don't have a weapon.
Geese are easier to beat than rats, unless you're truly ready to stomp with all your might. Well, same with the goose, but at least that won't leave a nasty bite mark on you.
Yeah, they should realistically be at the bottom of the list. I'd also rather take on 10 geese than one house cat. A goose bite doesn't even really hurt.
In a life or death situation, and assuming the most rabid and deranged foe, I'd probably be able to take on a large dog at least. Might come out of it missing a few fingers, but alive.
I feel like you're seriously underestimating how hard it is to kill an animal with your bare hands. There's really only two reliable methods with larger animals (which can't just be crushed, shaken, etc.), in my opinion; picking the beast up and slamming it into the ground (or wall, tree, whatever) repeatedly, or kneeling on its windpipe to slowly choke it to death. The former seems unlikely with a large dog if you're not one of the world's strongest men. As for the latter, unless the animal in question conveniently has a neck tumour and just took an overdose of fentanyl or something, it's going to be a long, hard struggle against something which is almost certainly stronger than you. Meanwhile, the dog can easily kill you if it ever gets its jaws around basically any body part except a finger. A mastiff, great dane, wolfhound, or whatever is well capable of chewing all the way through a human limb, probably in seconds (not that it matters; you can't get it off once it has bitten so eventually it will shred an artery). I wouldn't even rate an average person's chances against a collie, retriever, etc. very highly. Only the most delicate (greyhound, saluki) or small (spaniel-size at most) dogs seem likely to lose a fight to the death against typical people.
Most animals can't wrestle and they basically give you their neck when they latch onto a limb. Animals that have claws and/or can wrestle are the ones that you should really accept your fate with
The deciding factor between a human and dog, or anything smaller than a dog, is your level of aggression. Modern humans (namely whites) have been conditioned against violence in general, and I've seen people die trying to cover up instead of fighting back.
Yeah lad go square up to a Polar Bear and see how it works out. Modern whites understand the concept of picking your battles. Any wonder prisons are chock full of non-whites who ape out and ruin their lives over trivial shite, you lack self-control and forward thinking.
I clearly said something dog-sized or smaller, asshat. Pay attention to what you read. Also I'm pretty sure your "self-control" and "forward thinking" are euphemisms for cowardice. A people who resigned themselves to become minorities in their own countries can't make claims to "forward thinking".
I could slap the head off you no problem pal, ever heard the term "foolhardy"? morons seem brave because they haven't thought about the consequences of their actions

Pretty sure there's been a study about that and the conclusion was that at best non-whites would take up half of the population by 2050s, and that's in a scenario whey they reproduce to their maximum capability, which isn't reality.

>lion and gorilla above elephant and crocodile
And if need be I can beat anything that’s not a rhino, elephant, hippo, buffalo, ape, big cat, although I wouldn’t count myself out against a cheetah. I could take a croc if it was smaller than me but if it’s bigger you’re fricked. Any other animal I’m gonna break its back.
People underestimates the power of the trunk-punch.
The trunk of the elephant has 40,000 muscles (the entire human body has 650), can lift and throw 800 lbs, shatter animal bones with its impact, and pick up a tortilla chip without breaking it.
>How do you even begin to take it on?
You don't. What's even more laughable is elephants regularly btfo rhinos, and people are dreaming if they think they're taking even one of those barehanded.
>Maybe it can do some damage before it dies
Cheetah, Medium dog >If it's lucky
Lynx, Large dog >50/50
Wolf >If you're lucky
Mountain Lion >Maybe you can do some damage before you die
Leopard, Black bear >Certain death
Jaguar, Tiger, Lion, Grizzly bear, Polar bear
I think Leopard would be certain death as well - gets on your neck in a split second then hauls your ass up a tree effortlessly just like he did to your ancestors
If you can execute a chokehold and have the guts, grit to ignore some nasty flesh woulds, you can kill a leopard. 200lb leopards are not exactly your average cat either. Most leopards are 80-120lbs, some are like 60-70lbs even. If you pick up a rock, you can even kill a lion, a 20+kg rock to the noggin can kill lions easy. People tend to overstate the power and durability of animals and understate their own. Humans are pussies, it's not for a lack of strength they lose, it is because they turn tail and run.
>Lion
Relatively average humans have been known to kill lions (female) unarmed. Same principle as killing a dog by choking him, just... waaaaay fricking riskier, I guess. Grizzli bears at least 2 man won an unarmed fight.
leopards don't attack humans under normal circumstances, but when they do they're the most deadly of all 'big' cats despite being relatively small
they are extremely fast (especially vertically), extremely stealthy, and have extremely powerful bites that they exclusively focus on the throat with
>"Compared to women, men feel most able to take on medium-sized dogs and geese"
Yeah, like those are the surprising stats. Let's not talk about 8% of women and 9% of man thinking they can kill an elephant unarmed.
What can an elephant actually do though? If you hug its hind legs it can't reach you with its truck, and its too sluggish to get away while you repeatedly pommel it from behind. If you stand to the side of its hind legs then it won't even be able to hit you with a back kick. If it raises its leg to perform a stomp then all you have to do is back off until it finishes its slam, then move back in to continue punching.
I think I feel confident going up against everything except Chimpanzee, Gorilla, Elephant, Lion, and Grizzly. Lone wolf and Kangaroo might be challenging too...also depends on if you get to wear some kind of boot or gloves, etc. If it's just me naked then that changes the conversation on a few of these.
>Kangaroo might be challenging too
As an australian, I find it baffling that the percentages are so low. Sure a large male red can be intimidating when they get over 180cm and 90kg, but give them a good smack across the face and they don't know what to do. Their forelimbs are basically useless against people, and if you're also wearing pants, the most pain you'll feel when they kick is if they catch you in the balls (it's a big toe, not like a claw from emu or cassowary). Will most likely still leave some marks through the clothing though.
Yeah, I don't think they are that dangerous. An angry chimpanzee would hurt you a lot more.
If we are talking about killing it with bare hands in a closed ring WWE scenario, then it might be a little bit different. But that's not what those stats are all about.
This. Roos are just big, glorified rats. Slap them and you'll have the animal rights groups seething that you could have killed them. That's what happened to the guy whose dog was put into a headlock by one.
At least, it should be easier than a fricking chimp

It was all the dog's fault, the kangaroo was merely enforcing Darwin's will.

Wolves are big and fight with other wolves for fun. Play with a fully grown great pyrenees and imagine if it were trying to kill you and all you had were a shitty flint knife to fight it off. You might get a sense of the dread that Europeans had for wolves for the first 2000 years of their history.
You’re fricking moronic lmao. Slavic farmers slaughter wolves bare handed all the time, you can find a ton news stories about it. 1 v 1 and it’s a good 50/50 since canines can’t grapple for shit.

adding to this their teeth are fricking b***hes when they REALLY want to bite
>The best hope of the cat would be to slash a vital organ like the heart
A cat claw is not reaching your heart
You must be a woman or extremely sheltered. Human kicks would frick up cats beyond repair and leave them brain-damaged. Blunt force trauma from humans beating the frick out of cats is assured in a fight. Humans are made to knock out fully grown humans. Imagine a full force fist or foot in a cat's face.
Rats are known to stand their ground and can be very intimidating.
That's an average sized rat
No, but the woman is giant too
Kek at the pussy running out after falling in. When a woman has more balls than you, that's a problem.
She's also using a weapon and she also has defensive armour with her clothes. Rats have strong jaws that can gnaw through metal, they could easily gnaw through bone.
A human is going to have a hard time actually catching the rat, they're going to have to wait it out until the rat is super tired, get its chance, pick it up, and then smash its head.

Having tried to break a goose's neck and failed, I'm going to go with 'harder than it looks'.
Of the animals listed the king cobra seems like the realistic max. If you can grab it behind the head the fight is over though that might be tough to do against the really big 15+' long guys.
Do what the Mongoose does. Tire it out and then break its skull. Cobras have terrible stamina regeneration. Once their glycogen reserves are exhausted there's not much it can do.
Seriously?
The majority of men can't take on a glorified seagull?
They do have air superiority though, and a swooping eagle (even a smaller one) is quite dangerous if you only have your fists.
They weigh like 10 to 15 pounds, punch one when it swoops and you'll do a number on it, if you can get a solid grip on one of its legs, it's all over for the bird.
Depending on the bird, could still seriously injure you.
you ever thought about the fact that theres a lot of smaller animals that can inflict a lot more damage to another human being that you than humans can, bare handed of course.
Robbing humans of tool-use, tactics and teamwork is like wiring a wolf's jaws shut and sending it into a barren cell alone to fight a tiger. It's nonsensical, and beside is he wasn't so concerned for the birds wellbeing he could've sank his teeth into the back of it's neck and snapped it's spinal chord
Yeah good luck reacting to the harpy's lightning-fast movement on time to do that
Human men can kill other humans in one punch. Usually takes more but they can do it.
Unless you are naked, tf is an Eagle going to do if you hold up a jacket or shirt as its swoops down on you? You can disable and kill a swooping eagle unharmed if you see it comming.
who said its a bald eagle?
Kangaroo is easier than a chimp to beat. Kangaroo just gotta watch the feet and it's really just a big push rather than a strike. Chimpanzee will frick you up unless you're also going at full moron strength and not just curled up praying it's satisfied with just biting your dick and hands off.
Anyway safely. Large dog yeah no problem done that enough times. Even if they bite you just strangle or lay knee down on back of neck and kill slowly. Cobra I'm guessing like any other snake. So id say realistically cobra is my pb. But could also frick up a kangaroo
The largest I could beat is probably a cheetah. They are light and have very little muscle mass. Strongest would be a medium sized dog. Anything bigger and stronger than that would end me, assuming I don't have a weapon.
>more women can beat a lion than men
are women based?
A giraffe I can realistically take with my fists and kicks
>If only you knew how bad things really are...
>More people think they can kill an elephant than a bear
Jesus.
To be fair. Grizzlies are naturally aggressive, elephants are not.
Realistically a shorter and weaker version of myself assuming I can catch me by surprise and get the first few hits in
Geese are easier to beat than rats, unless you're truly ready to stomp with all your might. Well, same with the goose, but at least that won't leave a nasty bite mark on you.
Shovel>bag+hammer>neck snap. All accomplishable though, despite the bites I imagine from the last option.
Yeah, they should realistically be at the bottom of the list. I'd also rather take on 10 geese than one house cat. A goose bite doesn't even really hurt.
In a life or death situation, and assuming the most rabid and deranged foe, I'd probably be able to take on a large dog at least. Might come out of it missing a few fingers, but alive.
Imagine being part of the "men" who said they couldn't take on a house cat.
Right?
I mean, sure, you'd probably get hurt, but if it's intent on murdering you you have a good chance at delivering a fatal blow to it.
Not even, people regularly kill housecats by accidentally sitting on them.
I feel like you're seriously underestimating how hard it is to kill an animal with your bare hands. There's really only two reliable methods with larger animals (which can't just be crushed, shaken, etc.), in my opinion; picking the beast up and slamming it into the ground (or wall, tree, whatever) repeatedly, or kneeling on its windpipe to slowly choke it to death. The former seems unlikely with a large dog if you're not one of the world's strongest men. As for the latter, unless the animal in question conveniently has a neck tumour and just took an overdose of fentanyl or something, it's going to be a long, hard struggle against something which is almost certainly stronger than you. Meanwhile, the dog can easily kill you if it ever gets its jaws around basically any body part except a finger. A mastiff, great dane, wolfhound, or whatever is well capable of chewing all the way through a human limb, probably in seconds (not that it matters; you can't get it off once it has bitten so eventually it will shred an artery). I wouldn't even rate an average person's chances against a collie, retriever, etc. very highly. Only the most delicate (greyhound, saluki) or small (spaniel-size at most) dogs seem likely to lose a fight to the death against typical people.
Most animals can't wrestle and they basically give you their neck when they latch onto a limb. Animals that have claws and/or can wrestle are the ones that you should really accept your fate with
The deciding factor between a human and dog, or anything smaller than a dog, is your level of aggression. Modern humans (namely whites) have been conditioned against violence in general, and I've seen people die trying to cover up instead of fighting back.
Yeah lad go square up to a Polar Bear and see how it works out. Modern whites understand the concept of picking your battles. Any wonder prisons are chock full of non-whites who ape out and ruin their lives over trivial shite, you lack self-control and forward thinking.
I clearly said something dog-sized or smaller, asshat. Pay attention to what you read. Also I'm pretty sure your "self-control" and "forward thinking" are euphemisms for cowardice. A people who resigned themselves to become minorities in their own countries can't make claims to "forward thinking".
I could slap the head off you no problem pal, ever heard the term "foolhardy"? morons seem brave because they haven't thought about the consequences of their actions
>resigned themselves to become minorities in their own countries
Based on the schizo statistics in your head?
America will be minority White by 2040, West Europe by 2060. It’s over.
Pretty sure there's been a study about that and the conclusion was that at best non-whites would take up half of the population by 2050s, and that's in a scenario whey they reproduce to their maximum capability, which isn't reality.
Oh look demoralization agitprop
Sometimes i wonder if the /misc/gif/ and its occasional tourists complex is a glow-op to encourage radicalization, mass shootings, and therefore mass disarmament. Looking at the race bait and hate on /gif/ is just uncanny, it’s like looking at an MK ultra hypnosis program without being on LSD
>25% of men don't feel like they can take on a rat or a house cat
what the actual frick is this generation
how much soi do they have flowing in their veins
Thosse might be the ones that misunderstood the question as "would you be willing to hurt them"
test
What does unarmed mean in this scenario? Naked in an empty padded room? Because im pretty site i could turn anything into a weapon in a pinch
Naked in the Colosseum. Two enter, one leaves.
If I'm honest anything larger than a hippo. The gap between hp is too great.
>lion and gorilla above elephant and crocodile
And if need be I can beat anything that’s not a rhino, elephant, hippo, buffalo, ape, big cat, although I wouldn’t count myself out against a cheetah. I could take a croc if it was smaller than me but if it’s bigger you’re fricked. Any other animal I’m gonna break its back.
>Any other animal I’m gonna bre-ACK
This shit is bucket list for me
Swimming with whales or killing them with your bare hands?
>elephant
8.5% are fricking moronic then (seems accurate tbf)
How do you even begin to take it on?
Does pointing its location to Chinese medicine seller count as unarmed takedown?
People underestimates the power of the trunk-punch.
The trunk of the elephant has 40,000 muscles (the entire human body has 650), can lift and throw 800 lbs, shatter animal bones with its impact, and pick up a tortilla chip without breaking it.
>and pick up a tortilla chip without breaking it.
This is true btw
If it can dip it in guac and eat it too, I'll be impressed
>people underestimate the strength of a fricking elephant
no they don’t
>no they don’t
Do you have any idea how strong an elephant is?
>How do you even begin to take it on?
You don't. What's even more laughable is elephants regularly btfo rhinos, and people are dreaming if they think they're taking even one of those barehanded.
Your speed is superior, so you'd be able to run away and throw stuff at it.
You can run 25 miles an hour while throwing stuff?
>SPD vs STR gays once again
When I see red it's over.
Is this with fists or a weapon? Gun? Spear? Kite shield and arming sword?
read homie, read
Found the 7% who thinks he can bear a grizzly
I'm pretty sure "unarmed" means you get none of those, but what do I know, I'm not an ESL
>Maybe it can do some damage before it dies
Cheetah, Medium dog
>If it's lucky
Lynx, Large dog
>50/50
Wolf
>If you're lucky
Mountain Lion
>Maybe you can do some damage before you die
Leopard, Black bear
>Certain death
Jaguar, Tiger, Lion, Grizzly bear, Polar bear
I think Leopard would be certain death as well - gets on your neck in a split second then hauls your ass up a tree effortlessly just like he did to your ancestors
you can do some damage before you die
>Leopard,
Leopards hunt and kill gorillas. What fricking damage are you expecting unarmed Joe Smith to do?
Disingenuous, a leopard is hardly hunting fully-grown male gorrilas. It likely ambushed an old/young and/or injured gorrila separated from its troop
If you can execute a chokehold and have the guts, grit to ignore some nasty flesh woulds, you can kill a leopard. 200lb leopards are not exactly your average cat either. Most leopards are 80-120lbs, some are like 60-70lbs even. If you pick up a rock, you can even kill a lion, a 20+kg rock to the noggin can kill lions easy. People tend to overstate the power and durability of animals and understate their own. Humans are pussies, it's not for a lack of strength they lose, it is because they turn tail and run.
Africans kill leopards unarmed all the time
>Lion
Relatively average humans have been known to kill lions (female) unarmed. Same principle as killing a dog by choking him, just... waaaaay fricking riskier, I guess. Grizzli bears at least 2 man won an unarmed fight.
No they haven't.
Both are verified claims. The last unarmed lion kill happened a couple of years ago.
Don't ever post on this board again. Please.
Congratulations, you're a fricking moron.
leopards don't attack humans under normal circumstances, but when they do they're the most deadly of all 'big' cats despite being relatively small
they are extremely fast (especially vertically), extremely stealthy, and have extremely powerful bites that they exclusively focus on the throat with
>"Compared to women, men feel most able to take on medium-sized dogs and geese"
Yeah, like those are the surprising stats. Let's not talk about 8% of women and 9% of man thinking they can kill an elephant unarmed.
What can an elephant actually do though? If you hug its hind legs it can't reach you with its truck, and its too sluggish to get away while you repeatedly pommel it from behind. If you stand to the side of its hind legs then it won't even be able to hit you with a back kick. If it raises its leg to perform a stomp then all you have to do is back off until it finishes its slam, then move back in to continue punching.
t. Kratos
Underrated
This obviously bait but yeah real life doesn't work like that
You must be new here.
Elephants are smart. If you cling to a leg it's just going to sit down on you.
The only way you stand to do any real damage is going to involve putting yourself near its head. You are dead.
Proogers.
Maybe it's just a baby elephant
Lizardman constant
Medium sized dog
I think I feel confident going up against everything except Chimpanzee, Gorilla, Elephant, Lion, and Grizzly. Lone wolf and Kangaroo might be challenging too...also depends on if you get to wear some kind of boot or gloves, etc. If it's just me naked then that changes the conversation on a few of these.
>Kangaroo might be challenging too
As an australian, I find it baffling that the percentages are so low. Sure a large male red can be intimidating when they get over 180cm and 90kg, but give them a good smack across the face and they don't know what to do. Their forelimbs are basically useless against people, and if you're also wearing pants, the most pain you'll feel when they kick is if they catch you in the balls (it's a big toe, not like a claw from emu or cassowary). Will most likely still leave some marks through the clothing though.
I feel like generally people think kangaroos are as big as a bear and know how to box.
Yeah, I don't think they are that dangerous. An angry chimpanzee would hurt you a lot more.
If we are talking about killing it with bare hands in a closed ring WWE scenario, then it might be a little bit different. But that's not what those stats are all about.
This. Roos are just big, glorified rats. Slap them and you'll have the animal rights groups seething that you could have killed them. That's what happened to the guy whose dog was put into a headlock by one.
At least, it should be easier than a fricking chimp
Heh I was actually trying to find a saved webm of that when I made the post.
Never heard the backstory of that guy, gotta name?
https://www.unilad.com/animals/the-story-behind-the-guy-who-punched-a-kangaroo/
https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/home/pets/did-greig-tonkins-break-the-law-when-he-punched-the-kangaroo/news-story/4b4b84b147e5851fc2b9280fa2d1dc61
The second link outlines potential backlash he faced, but thankfully (and sensibly) nothing much came from that aside from a few tards screeching online.
It was all the dog's fault, the kangaroo was merely enforcing Darwin's will.
And the man was also enforcing Darwin's will when he rocked the kangaroo for fricking with his tribe
>Lone wolf
Wolves are big and fight with other wolves for fun. Play with a fully grown great pyrenees and imagine if it were trying to kill you and all you had were a shitty flint knife to fight it off. You might get a sense of the dread that Europeans had for wolves for the first 2000 years of their history.
You’re fricking moronic lmao. Slavic farmers slaughter wolves bare handed all the time, you can find a ton news stories about it. 1 v 1 and it’s a good 50/50 since canines can’t grapple for shit.
