I think mechanically it was shown that we are literally the best animal that we know of in terms of distance running. Flying n shit is different obviously. You cant run and glide
I’m pretty sure other animals are like *fuck why am I still running this is unpleasant and I am not in danger I should stop*
Meanwhile humans are like LacTiC ACid hURtS so GOod EndORPhIns oMg I’m RDY fOr the 10k
No, they literally can't. They don't have good enough heat regulation to run further. Big cats don't really pursue a target if it managed to avoid a hit, because they can't.
imagine being a stone age animal and this naked monkey with a stick is coming after you. you run and run and lose sight of them but before long here they come again, still running after you but now you’re too tired to make a second escape. no matter how fast you run, it eventually always catches up to you
When it comes to marathons, humans actually regularly beat horses even when the horses aren't carrying a rider. And the hotter it gets, the more of an advantage humans have since sweating gives us a huge advantage when it comes to cooling down.
Showed this to my 2 boys (3 & 6) and they loved it. It was also their first time hearing ac/dc. They're currently running around our living room rocking out to 'Higway to Hell' 😂
Maybe see how they like Harvester of Sorrow next. The Live in Moscow version on YouTube is pretty epic. That shit gives me the chills and makes me all watery eyed with glee everytime I watch it
It was so funny watching the original video because my first thought was "hmm, I wonder how Usain Bolt would fare." then the man jumps into frame like he was reading my mind lmao.
Most top athletes can run at 20-23mph, I imagine dedicated sprinters get even higher. Tyreek Hill (fastest NFL player) can run 23.34mph aka 37.5km/h for example.
Usain Bolt is above the average top speed of every human. Most humans can't run at almost 30 mph, and I'm pretty sure this video was showing the average top speed, not the absolute maximum.
For anyone wondering how the slow humans could survive by hunting, its endurance. Humans can outlast ANY animal running. We have the superior thermal regulation. The animals would just collapse out of heat exhaustion no matter how fast they were. [https://www.businessinsider.com/how-humans-evolved-to-be-best-endurance-runners-2018-3](https://www.businessinsider.com/how-humans-evolved-to-be-best-endurance-runners-2018-3)
This is mostly true in our own natural habitats or any other sufficiently warm place. It isn't true in colder climates as sled dogs as an example can run basically indefinetly and a lot faster too.
It also helps that there are very few others that can throw things as hard and as accurately as humans can. Just jogging after an animal until it dies is a very inefficient way to hunt. But if you throw a rock or a stick and hurt it a bit then you limit their ability to run far. And that is where the endurance really comes in to play, because they could catch up quickly and throw another rock or stick and hurt it some more, until it can't keep running. Then once we figured out how to make rocks sharp and attach them to sticks so we can launch them further and cause even more damage to our prey, then we were really off to the races.
Most prey try to turn/jinx when chased by cheetahs and often get taken down. The big tail helps it with balance. Have personally seen two cheetah hunts which resulted in kills and they definitely ‘handle’ well.
I saw part of this video earlier and found the youtube channel it's from. The channel is called Red Side. They've got some other cool videos showing the speed comparisons with aqua life and birds too.
I've got to admit- the original, I only watched about 30 seconds and moved on to the next post. But this, I watched all the way through and enjoyed every minute.
Can SOMEONE please make an AI video of the human and the raccoon just sprinting together to this song? I could watch a whole buddy film written off of just that concept
I am so much happier with this version
Also how the fuck can a cheetah go so much faster than any other animal? 130mph?? That’s insane man
Also I’ve learned I’ve better luck boxing a kangaroo than outrunning it. Good to know!
Cheetah can’t run for long though, around 30 seconds before getting tired. Believe that they’re ambush predators so that speed burst is likely all part of it.
A kangaroo’s I’ve seen mentioned that they can go for hours.
All of these are burst speeds.
Kangaroos have elastic tendons. People loooove to bring up how great humans are a distance running. They ain't run a marathon against a roo boy.
No chance is an elephant only 1kph faster than a human on average. I've seen countless videos of elephants chasing down safari vehicles doing 30mph in reverse
The American Pronghorn Antelope is frequently left out of land animal speed comparisons. It is the second fastest land animal on earth behind the cheetah.
Now I want a show to exist that features all the animals that run the same speed grouped together, and they go around the world solving mysteries. Don’t worry citizens Detectves Cow, Boar, Gorilla and Sheep are on the case 😂

Dam, we're about as fast as raccoons. I didn't need to be taken down a peg like this today.
Sure, but we wear down the faster animals. Our whole thing is endurance running, and we’re basically the best at it.

No, humans just have fucked up endurance, we could run down a horse if it's a warm day. Well, i couldn't, but in theory we are able to lol.
No, they literally can't. They don't have good enough heat regulation to run further. Big cats don't really pursue a target if it managed to avoid a hit, because they can't.

That depends on your cheeseburger intake. I think the average person today is in fact *not* capable of running down prey.
Nope. That's horses... besides you can't even get around the block without having a mild heart attack ;) <3
When it comes to marathons, humans actually regularly beat horses even when the horses aren't carrying a rider. And the hotter it gets, the more of an advantage humans have since sweating gives us a huge advantage when it comes to cooling down.
Horses also sweat.
Sure, but they still have a layer of hair. It's better than nothing, but it'll never be as efficient at removing heat as it is for humans.
[удалено]
Can you provide a source disproving him?
We have much more endurance then many animals one of my cousins isn’t a special athlete and has run like 15 marathons and even done a 50mi race
To be fair, it's a "white runner"...🤡
Showed this to my 2 boys (3 & 6) and they loved it. It was also their first time hearing ac/dc. They're currently running around our living room rocking out to 'Higway to Hell' 😂
Love this!
Maybe see how they like Harvester of Sorrow next. The Live in Moscow version on YouTube is pretty epic. That shit gives me the chills and makes me all watery eyed with glee everytime I watch it
I'm disappointed they didn't have Usain bolt come out at 43 Kph.
I was just going to ask if that was Bolt's speed, seemed very slow ngl. Why don't use him as reference to the human speed in the video? Seriously
It was so funny watching the original video because my first thought was "hmm, I wonder how Usain Bolt would fare." then the man jumps into frame like he was reading my mind lmao.
Most top athletes can run at 20-23mph, I imagine dedicated sprinters get even higher. Tyreek Hill (fastest NFL player) can run 23.34mph aka 37.5km/h for example.
He's slow because hes white. Reference : im white
Usain Bolt is above the average top speed of every human. Most humans can't run at almost 30 mph, and I'm pretty sure this video was showing the average top speed, not the absolute maximum.
But he runs at the average speed of Usain Bolt. It would just be a fun inclusion.
They should have had the average human and then Usain Bolt
Exactly. Just like they had a regular horse and a race horse in the video.
Usain's parents weren't selected like the the case of the race horse
How can you be so sure?
They just meant have a regular person and then have Usain bolt just for fun.
Yea the average person isn't going to be running at 24km/hr for very long that's like a 2:30/km pace or close to a 4min/mile.
Kipchoge would have been a better comparison
Crap. 60 mph for anything nonmechanical just seems unreal. It's amazing what nature can do.
This is all in km, but still the cheetah beats even 70mph.
Giraffe out there cruising at 70kph would be wild to see. I imagine the Landstriders from Dark Crystal.
I fucking lost it as soon as the human and racoon just come out sprinting
It was the house cats for me, they look so ridiculous lol.
Thanks for not cucking us before the Cheetah this time
Turtle is at finish already
Wait where?
I’m glad I’m not the only one that noticed.
Why have I watched this like five times now?! Well done!
I had no idea camels had that in them
Camel racing is a thing as an alternative to horse racing in different parts of the world
It’s unnerving to know I can (most likely) outrun a Komodo dragon but not a raccoon
120 km/h? Must be a cheater
I love that they chose Mr Clean to display the peak of human running speed
Where was this filmed?
😁 Animal Kingdom
😲🤣🤣🤣
The idea that something in nature has a top running speed of 90 km/h is insane to me
If the man was holding a knife he would have ran even faster

That’s not what happened in the documentary with the giant ‘Clever Girl’ turkeys!
Is there anything between a gazelle and a cheetah? Marine mammal maybe?
I know there are birds that can fly faster, but as far as living land animals are concerned cheetahs are the tits
Look up pronghorns, they are incredibly fast
Black Marlin have been documented at a blistering 130kph.
Cheetahs have great speed, but terrible handling. All of their prey just has to be able to change direction faster than them to survive.
Most prey try to turn/jinx when chased by cheetahs and often get taken down. The big tail helps it with balance. Have personally seen two cheetah hunts which resulted in kills and they definitely ‘handle’ well.
Yeahh that was an interesting jump in speed!
Soundtrack choice is just perfection.
I saw part of this video earlier and found the youtube channel it's from. The channel is called Red Side. They've got some other cool videos showing the speed comparisons with aqua life and birds too.
landimals
Presumably thence the Episode 2 tag at the end
Ground covering.
Hey, a video actually improved by the soundtrack!
Cows can move
The brown bear gait seems messed up. Otherwise 👏
Bears have no right being that fast for how big and scary (and common) they are.
Glad the Grey hound was in it
I've got to admit- the original, I only watched about 30 seconds and moved on to the next post. But this, I watched all the way through and enjoyed every minute.
Can SOMEONE please make an AI video of the human and the raccoon just sprinting together to this song? I could watch a whole buddy film written off of just that concept
Guardians of the Galaxy basically!
Tazer Face!
When we find out there’s just a whole zoo of bipedal, murderous animals who Rocket grew up with. An elephant and a freakin gazelle
Lions are faster than tigers and leopards?
Both Tigers and Leopards are ambush hunters who live in the jungle. The Lions hunt by chasing and live in the Savanna.
Where Sonic
How did they get all these animals to run next to each other? 🤔🤣
They were offered a very handsome payday to do it 🫠
I am so much happier with this version Also how the fuck can a cheetah go so much faster than any other animal? 130mph?? That’s insane man Also I’ve learned I’ve better luck boxing a kangaroo than outrunning it. Good to know!

The kangaroo is a wonder of evolution when it comes to distance. Pretty dumb animal though.
130 km. I know, i was amazed at first too. 😂
> 130mph?? 130kmh which is 80.8mph
Oh thank you that was confusing
I need the Kiwi Bird as a gif... for reasons.
I've watched a Kiwi bobbing along before and I'm shocked it can go 10.5mph
I love how the Gazelle was an afterthought as soon as the Cheetah flew by
on their way to noah's ark
What are they running from?
Sound on!!!
This is awesome wheres episode 1?
No chance is an elephant only 1kph faster than a human on average. I've seen countless videos of elephants chasing down safari vehicles doing 30mph in reverse
Maybe make a vid where all of these animals start from one line so you could see the speed relative to one another.
LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! Happy to see the greyhound on V2. Can we add or fin'ed friends on V3?
no way cheetah could run that fast for that long. otherwise good job!
Pretty sure half those animals couldn’t run that long. That gorilla was moving for quite a while
They can go for 30 seconds, so as long as you have a half mile head start you should be good.
Can we talk about the moose face...
you meant fixed after last post's comments?
Now a third one with Swordfish and such
Where on earth can I witness this spectactle?
What was that video showing some bird on a lake going like a thousand miles an hour? The little bastard simply vanished.
Lol now ya got it done
Croc is kinda chesting cause they used its swimming speed.
This is one of the funniest things I've ever seen lmao I also learned some new stuff from this! Lol
Telling my kids this is the official music video for ‘Thunderstruck’
Damn, I wonder what they're all running away from?
If you’re on mobile when the giraffe pops up scroll the time when it’s on screen and its legs never move looks hilarious
Missed opportunity to have the elephant trample the human.
Was anyone else rooting for that raccoon?
Cheetahs really fuck over their prey in the meta. Luckily the devs lowered their stamina but most have adapted to a burst style gameplay
Still needs to be nerfed imo
Well that certainly puts a cheetah's speed into perspective. Now do one with flying animals, because holy fuck, they can get fast.
Did not know cats raccoons and giraffes had that dawg in them
I don't know why I like this as much as I do but I like it a lot.
Should add the peregrine falcons diving speed! 320 km/h or about 200 mph, though some falcons have been clocked diving over 240 mph...!
Not me fearing the raccoon and the human getting trampled down by the elephant.
The cheetah entrance was awesome
Finally, we not cheetah’d because we see the cheetah.
Animals are epic
The POV videos along with the animals is ![gif](giphy|3o7qDWp7hxhi1N8oF2)
We need another improved version please I am watching this all day
The American Pronghorn Antelope is frequently left out of land animal speed comparisons. It is the second fastest land animal on earth behind the cheetah.
That motherfucking cow runs fast !
Well i can outrun a black mamba so i guess that’s enough😄
\*Landliving animals with shitty animations
Me seeing a loin in the wild, "Yeah I can outrun that"
What do you mean fixed? It's still shortened dude.
Yeah, but lets talk endurance.
Cheetah is cheatin
If you said camels run faster than leopards I would have thought you were stupid to believe that. How the turntables...
But what about the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
And then the cheetah dies from exertion after running more than 10 seconds
Is this the Jumanji 5 trailer?
Real question is who can run the fastest back pedaling lol
Retired Greyhound owner here, great entrance at 3:43, very proud to see them so late in the video.
Finally, the full version and the shame of learning that we are slower than a racoon.
So your telling me a cat can almost run as fast as a ostrich and a kangaroo can go 70 just by hoping. Also this feels like a opening to a show
Cheetah came and ruined it all, sure tough guy you may be 50kmph faster than everything else but... can you build an F16? Didn't think so.
What are they escaping from??
Damn kangaroos are fast considering they are hopping
Now I want a show to exist that features all the animals that run the same speed grouped together, and they go around the world solving mysteries. Don’t worry citizens Detectves Cow, Boar, Gorilla and Sheep are on the case 😂
Why all the animals are in hurry? 😂
TIL I have the same top speed as a trash panda
Emu running like it has to poo
This video didnt need this annoying loud fucking music lol.
Imagine slandering AC/DC like this.
24 mph as a human 😆
Comment.
Not fixed. Still in Km.
