Better question. Who could you tolerate for longer. One of the 24% of dudes who don’t think they could take a rat or one of the 7% of dudes who think they could take a grizzly?

Agree. A full grown male kangaroo is very dangerous if its mad at you. If its mad at you and you stand if front of it trying to fight it, it will rip you wide open. That long toe on those tremendously strong back legs is like a stout Ginsu knife attached to a jack the ripper machine. If you tried to grab the Kangaroo up high and it is intent on hurting you, the roo would kick those toe nails right into your mid section with a quick and powerful tearing motion straight down.

The American male has no testosterone in their body any more.

In an unarmed combat, I could take down a medium sized dog and below with the Goose being the toughest. After that, I would get destroyed.

unarmed?

Does that mean like in a enclosure where there are zero items which could be used as a weapon?

Damn, we'd be screwed with most of those critters.

I'd say about 2% of men could pretty handily take down a chimp...sure chimps are usually a little stronger and more viscous than a human,
But they're dumber, smaller, and don't have the tactical know-how to avoid getting kicked.


You’re an idiot. Chimps don’t fight in the same manner as humans. They’re far more dirty fighters than anything that would come to your mind.

If you set up a fight with a UFC striker, a larger kickboxer, a SF member or the like, they have a legit chance to take the chimp


Listen to Rogan’s podcast sometime. He has gone into an insane amount of detail on why a UFC fighter could not take down a chimp.

Have you ever heard of St. Peter's College? That was the old wooden building that became the library after they built CHS. I went into that building when I was a kid. Don't know why they called it 'college' since it was a HS.

I'm in the 95% area with a rat or a cat (5% are ninjas) but I might draw the line at goose. I would be laughing so hard I don't think I could defend myself.

I hate geese, so I don’t think that’d be a problem for me. I have had the fantasy of going to my local park and going full Jason Bateman on them in full view of dozens of people. I’ve gone duck hunting on several occasions, so what’s the difference. Sure some people would think I’ve lost my fricking mind, but that’s half the fun of it.

Don’t sleep on goose aggression. When my boys were small we took them for a stroll at a park (talking one in stroller other toddling along). I walked ahead a bit and heard my wife screaming and kids crying from behind me. Ran back to find a big arse goose biting at my wife who was standing in front of the kids. Ran up, expecting it to take off, instead it turns comes at me, snaps at my crotch. I jump backwards, fall, it rushes forward and nips me on hand, neck, etc. that shite hurt and it was relentless. Wife gave it a kick and it turned on her, I grab a stick, whack the frick out of it, kick it and it still keeps coming. Me and it face off and she leaves with the kids. I start backing away and this motherfricker follows us, when I turn it stops, when I walk it speeds up. It eventually stopped but I’d have needed to get real old school medieval to beat this thing into submission, I’m convinced it wouldn’t stop until it was dead if we hadn’t left.
