It's probably bicycles. Bicycles are technically more energy efficient than walking. Even pack animals like in your pic are responsible for a fairly significant amount of Greenhouse gas emissions. Cow farts are extremely potent sources of methane

The fact that bicycles are around 4 times faster than walking for the same energy feels like magic to me, it doesn't seem like it should even be possible yet here we are

Hydrogen if you want to move anything weighing over a ton which is what most of the 21st century runs on.

Our best gliders are still pretty lousy compared to many birds and far more limited in the conditions they can fly in.

We succeeded because of tools and coordination.
Most evidence available suggests that ancient humans didn't chase their prey over long distances, but used traps, natural landscape features, or sprinted in relays with other humans to catch prey.
Horses are better long-distance runners than us, even when they are carrying a rider, and there are many other animals that can easily outrun even a very fit human long enough to escape.

Post strava stats if you're so much better

recent ride where I was sick but pretty close to my normal sprint effort. I can also post a ride where I did 5W/KG @ 360W for an hour

Also, the belief that humans are the best long distance runners is a myth spread by morons like you that never thought to check if it was true

Since your next post is "but zwift doesn't count!!!", here's an effort from pavement after three days of racing.
Let's see what kind of numbers you put up for an hour and 1000m of climbing
Or if you're in western NA and on zwift we can just race and I can cook you in person

They all use oil. All of them.
Even that ox (and those pedestrians) ate food that was grown with fertilizers made using oil.
It's oil all the way down.

nta, I mean that's decent, but that's not "post on the internet with belligerent fight me text" good, maybe work on growing a thicker skin instead of sperging out over a lazy shitpost
