If a Croc rams you, you are dead. Hits you with is tail, you will be serious hurt on dead. A Croc can drown you easily. Then you have its bit and the death roll which drowns and tears your limbs apart. A Croc can also leap out of water or stand using it tail.
I know why you posted the footage, but it wasnt a great feat to begin with. He killed the croc by stabbing it with a knife. Whoop deedoo. A good feat would be Tarzan defeating the croc with his bare hands. It just wasnt that impressive.As for the croc in the water being the easiest feat, how is it not? Your telling me that a human would have an easier time against an animal like a lion or bear that has the ability to maul you with their claws and by biting compared to an animal that has only one line of offense and that is by a straight forward bite. Its limbs are practically worthless. Theres a 99.99999% chance that a human dies in any encounter with all 3, but I like my chances trying to gouge the eyes out of a croc more so than having my throat ripped out attempting the same thing against the other two.
On land a Croc can run 11 miles per hours and jump. So on land a Croc is surely not a deadly as the other animals. But in water they are much more dangerous. Also the knife can only penetrate the bottom of the Croc not top.
Your comments about a Croc are really ignorant. If a Shark bits you and you hit its eye the reason you survive is because the Shark does not like the way you taste not because you hit its eye. Unlike a Shark an Croc unless it is giving you a warning does not just hold you so you can punch its eyes. It bits, locks on, pulls you into the water and then turns you until your limbs are broken and you drown. There is no escape.
Its also can shoot up to 18 miles in water for an attack similarly to the way Cheetahs, Tigers, accelerate in a short span to make an attack on land.
Originally posted by Silent MasterLOL. Okay, as I said I will agree to disagree.
Among other things, that Cap would have any kind of trouble with the croc from the youtube clip you posted.
I posted my reasons for posting the video. If you want to take it for face value (when you know they could not replicate the movements of a real croc accurately on film at that time.) so be it.
I disagree and nothing you said so far has changed my mind. That is all I have to say on this topic to you.
Clownshoes, I'm just clowning you per the norm. We are debating the topic. You put forth a ridiculous notion that
A) Large animals are easy to fight off, thus trying to downplay some of Tarzan's feats
B) That you yourself (bullshit) have fought off large animals and it wasn't that hard.
C) That somehow, you never fighting off large means something in relation to Tarzan beating 3 lions. One has nothing to do with the other. Dogs are so far removed from a Lion it's not even funny
Being that you're using this as evidence, it's completely relevant to the discussion. Whether or not it's bullshit matters not, you put forth the evidence, and I'm challenging said evidence
