He probably was calculating the tiger at the same speed as Fournette or around 15 mph. Who knows.


We're missing the point though. The most impressive stat to me was that he can make a 60 degree angle cut and retain 85% of his speed. That's freaking crazy.

It's at 10 mph and in the article.

Fournette barrels into defenders, mostly using his shoulder. The momentum of those hits, at full speed, is comparable to that produced by a 500-pound Bengal Tiger running at 10 miles per hour.


Other people in this thread need to relax, jesus.
