Balls. Lots of balls, all of them.

It's scary how a Komodo can easily sneak up from behind and bite the legs off an unsuspecting man.

[@alphaarx3055]

Yeah

[@William_sJazzLoft]

terrifying indeed. Although, I've heard with timely intervention a treated victim can make a full recovery

[@Alvigger]

smoothjazzaxe he’ll bleed to death.

[@misterbearmore4633]

The komodo dragon wouldn't be large enough to rip the legs off something as large as a man, but would rather bite the man once, retreat, and wait until the man dies from the lizard's toxic saliva.

[@lilrara1291]

Mister Bearmore venom

[@IkanaMusicBox]

If I was in that situation I'd surely be shitting myself with terror. Just knowing that those things are persistently pursuing me, and they literally want to kill me and are capable of it... But seriously, what incredible beasts.

[@jessedeniz4313]

Horror movie shit

[@firespinguy]

Pretty dangerous considering Komodos can run faster than a human.

[@dualiron2449]

they can't.

[@firespinguy]

At short bursts they most definitely can.

[@dualiron2449]

firespinguy true, but humans can outlast them. Dragons are good at acceleration, humans are good at speed and duration.

[@ok80085]

Yes well if they snuck up on a person and got close, it would be too late for the human. Of course they were constantly aware of where they were

Pack hunting dragons? That's a scary thought!

[@silentartist7854]

Got some pretty big balls for filming Komodo dragons THAT close, one bite can finish them and they can't even outrun the dragons.

[@Edward-ho2bm]

True

[@tbone3972]

It’s NOT bite that kills.... it’s the saliva, the drool that hangs from their mouths.

[@menno1953]

they can only run 20kmph with the adrenaline you get from this animal chasing you you could easily outrun the comodo dragon

[@mauer1]

they probably can outrun the komodos if they want to. but they wanna film them :D Humans have far more duration in sprinting, than those komodos. Komodos can hunt them over a duration of time though.

[@ultimateguy7641]

@@tbone3972 Hi T-Bone, they have venom glands that shoot an anti coagulant into the blood stream - this causes their prey to bleed out.

[@1cannedpeaches]

The Komodo Dragons looked so cute when they were running

[@SocialistFinn1]

Also a long time ago (After the dinosaur age) these guys were like 8m long

[@MrHarshaagousta]

in real life, 1 bite on leg can make your whole leg rot if you dont get a medicine quickly, their saliva contain poison and bacterias that can "melt" your skin and rot it my uncle got bitten once, and the best we can do was to cut his leg
