Man, I was thinking about this thread all night and re-visiting it today. Well, not really, but was really more interested in how many KMC users went out in the woods today with nothing more than their fists and willpower.

Um, that would be a no. Any bare-fisted deer mauler worth his weight in sheer brute force and intellect would have wireless internet service available at their side after the kill.
Actually I meant that most KMCers fighting a full grown deer would probably be dead by now....
This thread just keeps getting funnier. LOL!!!
But IDK, maybe it's just ME. Firstly, I AM impressed with the ability of some wild ass dude to wrestle a huge animal to death especially if he was so destitute he needed to eat him - however I think we don't have the complete story and that, as common sense would indicate - he was LUCKY more than anything else. I mean just how would YOU report that story if you were the typical unprincipled hack that goes by the title "journalist" in this bush-whacked decade of the "not so free or honest press" and "anything to get readership and thus a promotion" era? So we really don't know the particulars, do we. I mean, the deer coulda been mortally wounded by shards of glass or compromised in some other was before the homo sapien jumped on him. And for that matter, maybe the homo s. jumped on it for some other purpose, too despicable to mention here ( but hinted at in the ungulate image in some above frame) and was thus disappointed that it died for unrelated reasons vis a vis crashing through plate glass. We just don't know now do we?
Moreover, assuming the dude's daughter wasn't even at home or in a state of danger, it seems to me the easiest way to solve the problem would be to make a way for the poor dumb terrified animal to exit and so to proceed as follows: (1) prop the closest exit door to the "open" position (2) grab some protection, like a chair and/or a baseball bat (3)somehow maneuver behind the animal or exit the house, coming in through the gaping hole which used to be a window to do so (4) make noise, prod and poke so as to herd the buck in the direction of the opened door. (5) in all likelihood, when that thing sees daylight, it's gonna run like hell out of that terrifying, enclosed space. (6) you just transformed a common everyday buck into a celebrity as you can imagine how all the doe's would be throwing themselves at him upon hearing his adventure. (7) you may have saved your own life since no matter how "tough" you are, the power of an animal like that is such that it very easily could kick you to death or maim you for life if one connected, or gore you thus collapsing lungs and/or causing internal organ damage & artery laceration. (8) if it had paralyzed you, you just also saved the enormous inconvenience and expense of your family members having to regularly visit you in that piss smelling clinic for the destitute where you now ruin all their free time and the holidays as well 'cause if they're not having to come and wheel your dead ass everywhere's they're feeling guilty about maybe not visiting enough (9) you've also just saved lots of money by MINIMIZING damages to your daughters home and property (10) thereby acquiring the eternal appreciation of your daughter and her fam 'cause if you had done something stupid like twisting the head off a large deer who was paralyzed with terror and already bleeding from cuts, you would've made a bloody mess everywhere and MAXIMIZED the damage to her house & things, which, lets face it, if you're so destitute you wanted to take advantage of the mishap so you could eat the animal throughout the winter, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE THE ONE to rush out and replace all those things now are you? SHE's going to suffer the time and expense of cleaning up the blood, cleaning up all the damaged little delicate things women like to have an surround themselves with, but which she has just lost forever. Not to put too fine a point on it but YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE THE ONE to suffer the payments for repairing or replacing the holes in the walls, the busted up furniture, the pissed-on bed mattress, the demolished brand new 52" 16:9 high def Samsung that she saved all year to get, no thanks to you, oh and that old Compaq computer that was her only lifeline to the world. Yeah, well, your stupid ass WILL be the talk of the town for years to come, earning you innumerable free mugs of very bad beer at the local bar where you hang out along w/all your other loser buds and self-stylized "tough guys". Yuh huh. What a hero LOL. Waaay ta go daud! 😂

I know. Why I think there's a huge hole in that story, other than the one made by the deer jumping into the window! I mean, I got nothing against hunting for meat. Hell, I'm from Michigan, well, not Hell, MI, but Michigan nontheless. I enjoy venison. Oh yeah, btw, how was it last night - the venison you made?
