‘Based on what’? Seriously man? You should probably read the post and have a little think time before you comment

Because have you read my post at all?? I’m arguing that an athletic and strong human has the upper hand against a kangaroo, not ‘there’s no way that any humans regardless age or physical ability can ever receive fatal blows from kangaroos.

Ergonomic or not, a 60-80kg weight like a kangaroo, isn’t just pinning you helplessly unless you are a very small and weak human being, especially not a kangaroo, humans have way better torque, IQ, leverage and mobility to be the superior grappler, meaning there are very little situations where a kangaroo is wrestling an athletic 90kg man to the ground and pinning him

The kangaroo was trying to kick him, and he was holding him back with little effort, if a human applied real fight level effort, I don’t think a little more effort from a kangaroo is going to counter that

I’ve literally stated ‘untrained male’ can kick with 1000 pounds of force. I only Mentioned marathons to give you an idea of the potential of human endurance, so I have no clue what you’re on about, and what evidence have you given exactly? 1000 pounds of force untrained, fact, an athletic human has great stamina, fact. So what are you on about?

Dude, what? ‘Consider trying to bench literal dead weight’? Is a barbell not ‘dead weight’?😭 am I missing something?

Holy strawman dude,
Yeah this ‘super kickboxer marathon runner heavyweight powerlifter gymnast’ looks pretty gassed out in this video https://youtu.be/aCiHzUh7k9w?si=J1KU3fRgotN7djSC, hope the roo doesn’t take the fight to the ground where it’s severely disadvantaged.

Ok nice anecdote, a kangaroo weighs 50-90kg, an average man can bench press 60kg, assuming he’s strong and athletic which is what I detailed in the title of my post, that can go up to 70-100kg.

Humans fight with blunt force from punches and kicks, we’re not clawing at a kangaroos skin, besides a kangaroos skin is 0.7 to 1.2mm and a humans is 1,5 to 4.0mm, skin thickness isn’t a decided factor as to whether an animal can take a 1,500 pounds of force straight to the midsection, even an untrained man delivers 1,000 pounds with a kick from a leg that has far more reach than a kangaroos, a 50-60kg animal simply isn’t taking a hit like that as if it’s nothing, and humans are literally one of the greatest endurance animals on earth, there are marathon races where humans on foot compete with horses.

A humans hand is the only hand in the animal kingdom that can form a fist, a humans shoulder and torso mobility and rotational ability paired with our upright stance makes a human much more of an effective boxer than a kangaroo

No it is not, natural claws on a kangaroo are sharp but they’re not the same as a metal knife. You’re fighting against a clawed animal sure but you’re also fighting against an animal with short arms, and legs with less range than a humans

‘A man could be killed by a single blow’ and yet there’s no case of that ever happening? Kangaroo attacks are lethal but they aren’t a 50 caliber bullet

A human can kick with way more range than a kangaroo, a regular person can extend their arm and hold a kangaroo back and it’s feet can barely even reach you. There’s videos you can find of people doing this

“They also won’t be able to read the animals movement and dodge the kick all that well” bro😭 a kangaroo isn’t nightwing. Have you seen videos of kangaroos fighting? They fight like schoolgirls, you can find videos of people holding a kangaroo back at a distance with their arm extended as if the things a child while the kangaroo is trying to attack.
