[Misc] What's the hardest animal you reckon you could beat in a bare knuckle fight?

I'm pretty sure I could have a chimpanzee mate, so be careful, alright?

Chimps are viscous little ****s.

I’ve got one of those yappy little dogs that truth be told I didn’t really want. 4 years on, if he got attacked in the park by one of them fuckin horrible dogs I would fight with my last breath to save him.

Took my kids for a day out in London today.

Whilst enjoying a picnic in St James Park, my daughter swung an arm in an attempt to deter several aggressively persistent pigeons who seemed intent on joining us, and inadvertently PUNCHED one squarely in the FACE.

So I’m saying ‘pigeon.’

Unbeknown to me until after I did it and was told what kind of snake it was, but I once killed a Black Mamba with a kettle full of boiling water when I lived in Africa. It's mouth would have been about 3 inches away from my knuckle when I poured the kettle down the hole it had slithered down. It wasn't fully grown but it had more than enough venom to take me out if it had bitten me.

The Komodo Dragon.

I stumbled across these foul breathed cretins at Colchester Zoo a few years ago. They looked so much smaller in the flesh than they do on the TV. I reckon with a well measured run-up and jump, I could land on the Dragon’s head two-footed and absolutely take it out the game.

Probably a sheep but voted none, I know I definitely can’t take on a bully as my arm would show for it

The last time (2006?) I went to London Zoo we walked through right at the end where the Komodo Dragons were and one was walking the other side of the glass looking and hissing at us. Evil.

Can we do something about 'look at me' threads?

Yes, and that's about it. To protect someone or something we love, adrenalin would take over and we can do/tackle all sorts of things we wouldn't normally choose to do. Probably might have had more interesting responses on the thread if it didn't have the silly poll. No human, unarmed, can seriously take on, for example, a lion, a bear or a gorilla - so why ask the silly question?

 

[Han Solo]

I've always been in the "only eat whats fair" camp.

Weapons are for weaklings. Basically cheating.

If you can't kill the animal with your bare hands, you don't deserve to eat it.

If you want that hamburger, you go out there and catch it. Strangle that cow. If you win, eat it. If it wins, be eaten.

I'm a vegetarian btw

Chimpanzees are dangerous. About 5 times stronger than the average human male. It freaks me out that people keep them as pets. If you think you could take one on, you're deluded.

 

[sakooshi]

I reckon I could have a sheep

I would do that with relish.

One of my favourite scenes

 

[sakooshi]

I think this poll has too many animals such as polar bear and lion that no unarmed human could defeat, and only one (sheep) that your average person might stand a chance against. It could be better calibrated, with sheep nearer the middle of a spectrum of choices, possibly include a range of dogs (German shepherd, labrador, boxer), one cat, a team of cats working together, deer..

 

[Bakero]

I'm not sure what's weirder. The fact that some posters think they could take a chimpanzee or that others think they're no match for a sheep.
