People who think you can kill a deer with your bare hands when it has an intention to kill you are out of their mind, even in nature no single lone wolf attacks a lone deer. They attack in groups, and kill the weakest ones. It takes a couple of wolfs to kill a healthy deer. How do you even imagine killing a deer with your bare hands when naked in an arena? Have you seen their thick, muscular necks? They're walking muscles, and their single kick can snap your bones. If tools are permitted then you could kill most of the animals, but with bare hands it's pretty much impossible. I don't know, maybe damage the brain through the eyes or something, but it's hard to imagine tbh.

[@EveloGrave]

I love how Ryan, in both, says "Komodo Dragon or Gila Monster" as if they are even remotely close. You'd die to a Komodo, but you'd obliterate a Gila. -(Assuming you don't get poisoned from the venom, or actually poison in the case of the Gila since its saliva is poisonous not injected like venom)- Komodos are huge but Gilas are pretty small you can easily squeeze one to death if forced to.

I don't really get triggered easily but you are so wrong and so confident at the same time lol. Gila monster is a venomous lizard which injects venom like a snake would do.

The lama literally just kicks you once and your dead. That’s it

[@atomail6334]

NL is forgetting that if he does kill a wolf ot will spawn three pigs. But if kills the dear it spawns a bus with Chili so makes sense

[@ericlamb4501]

Fun fact: All squids have hooks in their suckers. So, even if its not large or strong enough to pull NL limb from limb, it can still latch onto him and bite him to death/ he bleeds out from the wounds. That being said, also the perfect time to squeeze it to death, since it has no bones at all. So, if NL could muster to fight back, that could very well be a 50/50 on who dies first.

[@elperdidolocal]

The snapping a deer's neck belief of chat is more delusional than any of NLs takes, like a crab getting a few hits in. It is possible to break an antler off and that might crack their skull. Some deer/moose/elk die this way when fighting each other during rut.

[@zSanityz]

Y'all over here complaining about wolf/deer matchups and I'm just trying to figure out how a normal squid would not only kill a man, but it wouldn't even close somehow.

[@fdmugen4724]

Dont skip the mental movie at the end!!

[@BoliceOccifer]

Psychotic seal placement. That's a 50/50 That thing has no manoeuvrability. The only method it has of hurting you is biting you. Just occasionally throw a jab or kick while staying out of range. Psychotic cow placement. That's a "they'd get a few hits in". Sure, you do very little damage to cow, but without any horns, it isn't doing anything to you Another manoeuvrability skill issue. You'd have to punch it like 70 times, but you'd kill it.

[@ant_raccoon5546]

I want to see him do the same list but he has a spear

[@henrycardona2940]

This made me laugh the snot out of me.

[@samgomez9942]

I love that if the eagle used NLs panda logic of playing keep away and then landing a killing blow when their opponents guard is down, it would beat him everytime.

[@rylace]

Right, but the point is they wouldn't because they have literal bird brains. The Panda strategy is something a human is smart enough to think of. An Eagle is going to follow relatively simple instincts and eventually get caught and killed.

[@samgomez9942]

​@@rylace That's honestly fair

[@Addvant]

Life or death I definitely think a human can take a wolf or even medium sized cat

[@rylace]

Yeah tbh NL was generous to the wolf and everyone else is way overestimating them. They're definitely dangerous but they weight a lot less than people and unless they get an artery you have a pretty good chance of killing it before it kills you.

[@stevecarell2286]

NL forgetting that llamas and deer have the skinniest legs baffles me

[@Mikisoq39]

Strike down the turtle and the rest will become more powerful than you can imagine.

[@markfarmer7534]

Bruh. I used to have a pit bull that would fetch entire logs, and he loved running between legs, so for my own protection, I had to start halting his charges, by sticking my foot out. He would charge head first into my foot, and deflect. Yeah, he's fast, and he was the strongest dog I've ever seen, but from that experience I think, even with wolves having speed me, I'd be able to predict where their mouth is going and kick it in the head before it bites me. A full power kick to the head wouldn't be easily ignored by a wolf. Do I think the average person has the reaction speed for that? Maybe not if you pluck them out of their peaceful life, but if you picked a gamer, or the person was just ready, and had adrenaline running, there's a more than decent chance. Realistically, the wolves claws won't do enough to kill me, so all I have to do is control its head, and it can't win

[@fixpontt]

if you can meaningfully reach the animal's eyeball you have a chance, it's a disgusting human only tactics but it helps

[@pigmentpeddler5811]

nah plenty of animals will go for whatever exposed areas they can find, eyes, throat, soft little underbelly etc

[@weeping_me362]

But I think the point is that if you really go for it a human hand could probably get into the eyesocket and through the brain

[@eliasgermer8762]

Im not really familiar with Northernlion (this came recommended), but is he serious or not when he scolds that viewer about comparing a zebra to a horse or giraffe in the beginning? He must be joking, but at the same time he seems really upset, so I have no idea.

[@willywonka7812]

The context is that there was another of these videos, and in reaching for the rhino comparison, he was setting the zebra assessment in terms relative to what he'd already addressed, that being a rhino; the previous tier list not including horses. If ya get me

[@yasinachekzai2567]

I love how no one puts any respect on cheetahs. Even chat, who is usually always on the animal's side says it's a trash tier beast. 😂 Edit: Also, good list, but it really irks me that you put the lobster in a worse tier than the crab. I think they should both be in the lowest tier, but if you really wanted to make a distinction, the lobster is definitely the one more likely to do some damage to you. And man, wolf people are so annoying (no offense to Apollo)... why are people so obsessed with these things? I get lions, tigers or bears, who are awesome, but wolves? They're like worse hyenas and no one stans for those. 🙄

[@handtomouth4690]

I mean...wolves are pretty cool imo.

[@rylace]

Wolves are cool af and definitely not worse hyenas. Hyenas are disgusting, lame, vile, cringe, and evil af. Wolves are cool and obviously closely related to dogs which are great, even if I'm more of a cat person. That being said, the wolf people are definitely hard overrating them when it comes to a fight to the death. They weight like a bit more than half as much as a person, around the same as a Cheetah. Definitely dangerous, but not like guaranteed loss dangerous. Cheetahs are definitely cool (probs my fav big cat growing up personally) but relatively small and weak as far as big cats go.

[@Vulture2k]

Bald NL vs bald eagle, the best North American match ever.

[@5-iwnl-596]

NL is forgetting he can choke out the animals or hammerfist an organ, a human can deliver enough force in a bite to break small bones/appendages, we have powerful strikes like say i pin a llama to his side with a tackle, wrestle him down, and hammerfist his internal organs? how would it fight back? A wolf, kicks to keep him back, wrestle when he tries to go in, choke him out and maybe spare doge.
