Not sure who these foolishly brave Americans are who think they can beat an elephant and a grizzly bear bare handed.
Or even a kangaroo, those things can be scary af. Forget about anything bigger.
I think your best bet fighting a Kangaroo would be to work it from the sides, Kangaroos can't jump backwards and usually punch or grapple and kick forwards. If you consider it like a southpaw fighting an orthodox boxer, they would have their lead foot on the outside of the orthodox fighters, making the orthodox constantly having to turn towards them while they work from the side and continue pivoting keeping an advantage on their opponent.
I've seen videos of men winning fights against kangaroos on YouTube.
Maybe a grizzly bear when you poke him in the eye just right? But an elephant... You've got nothing
By the time you poke his eyes, the grizzly poke your stomach out of your belly
I really want to know what they think they'd be doing to the eagle.
Birds have fragile bones. They're going to fuck you up, but victory is certain.
Yeah, even one of the largest eagles, the harpy, tops out at around 22 pounds. You could get all your weight on top of it and eventually smother it.
The amount of people who don't think they can beat a rat is concerning
Rats are fast though. Would depend, do I get time to set traps? Bait? Do I get a net or other weapons.
You drop a normal guy in an area with a rat, , with no tools, weapons etc. you'd see him chase the fucker around for an hour before he gives up.
It says "if you are unarmed" so for sure no baits or traps. I'm assuming that it also doesn't consider the possibility of the rat running away.
You're in a circular, smooth arena with a rat. That's it.
Welcome to the cheesedome!
Yeah, and it's even higher than it appears at first cause the scale only goes up to 80%. So >30% of responders don't think they can beat a rat in a fight.
I'm glad to see that Americans are deadlier than our cousins across the pond, or at least more foolishly optimistic.
Geese have a reputation, but i know for a fact if you actually fight back there's not much they could really do.
Just wanted to let you y'all know how tough i am...
