Why Honey Badger is the most Fearless Animal on the Planet

SIAP
I know a lot of people may misunderstand the recent fascination with the honey badger as a nickname or popular trend being passed around--some people may only think it is because of that funny effeminate voice-over on youtube. But the truth is that there is much more to it that makes the honey badger a frightening beast on this planet and one deserving of legitimate respect, and that it truly is the most fearless animal walking around on this planet.

cracked.com did a write up on the most fearless animals on the planet and the honey badger came in as #1 most fearless (scroll to the bottom of the page)

Here's the video (non-gay version), and then I'll quote their write-up:
National Geographic - The Honey Badger

In that one, short video, you can see a honey badger chasing a leopard away and climbing a tree just to attack a cobra -- presumably because it looked at him funny. But the perfect example of the honey badger's inability to give one hot shite comes around 2:15 into the video: One particular honey badger got hungry, so he went to find a nice meal. Now, he could snuffle around in the dirt all night, looking for the safest food source, but that sounds hard, and it might take a while. So instead, he opts to piss all over the very concept of survival instincts, and just eats the first damn thing he comes across. Unfortunately, it happens to be a puff adder -- one of the deadliest snakes in the world.

The badger stumbles across the snake midway through its own meal, so what's a badger to do? Why, steal the food straight from the death-serpent's jaws, of course, and then sit down to eat the snake's stolen meal right in front of him, while he furiously spits and hisses. When the badger finishes the snake's dinner, he's still a bit peckish, so he walks right over to the still-furious snake and mauls it to death, sustaining multiple bites in the process. Ignoring the deadly poison coursing through his veins, the badger settles in and starts eating the puff adder. Tragically, a few minutes later, he collapses.

And so ends the story of this honey badger, who died as he lived, spitting in the face of mortalit- what's that? He's back up? Holy shite! Two hours pass, and the badger miraculously resurrects himself from apparent death! He's been given a second chance at life! A second chance to ...

Go right back and continue eating that snake.
