Well, /spee/...?
KROCK EASILY
Crocodile because it's a dumb reptile
and the arena? their home turf or? id take my chances with the croc ţbh
I've seen hundreds of videos of people either jumping on crocs and wrestling them, or corralling dozens of them with just a stickyeah I'll take my chances with the croc
>>154656481Only a mongoloid would pick anything other than the crocodile, it likely won't even move
Crock easily, Hippos will destroy you.
Fucking retarded question OP. As you can see by all of the replies so far, the croc is the only encounter with even REMOTELY decent survival odds.
>>154656481Crocs are retarded and have terrible eye sight, so that's the obvious choiceJust stand still and nothing happens
>>154656481I’m confident I could subdue a crocodile in a life or death situation.A huge FUCK NO on the other three.
>>154656481Why do they need to pay out money if you have to choose one? Also, where are you?
>>154656481Croc, easily. It's by far the easiest to avoid. If the space I have to survive in isn't ridiculously small, I actually take that bet and walk home with 100 million. Not because the crocodile cannot kill me if it gets the chance, but because I can run away from it for 15 minutesThe tiger is way too agile and will kill you for fun. The bear is usually stronger than the tiger, but the strength does not matter since you mustn't care whether someone is 100 times stronger than you or 120 times. The bear is also agile enough to easily kill you, but maybe it won't be arsed to waste time on youThe hippo is a fucking behemoth and can easily kill you as wellThe crocodile may not even give a fuck, it does not have stamina and cannot make turns well. Just don't come too close. And if I actually have to fight for a bit, the croc is the only one where I have a chance to survive for more than one second
>>154656790Iirc you can walk up from behind and cover their eyes, then they're too scared to move
'he kroko draile
>>154656481There's a reason crocodiles have existed for millions of years. They are OP as fuck and apex predators. Can they kill people? Fuck yeahBut they are the only correct answer here. I cannot kill them, but they have various weaknesses a human can exploit to prevent dying within 15 minutes. If the area you have to survive in is larger than 60 square meters or so (and not filled with water), any non-retard chooses the croc wins 100 million
tier list>1. crocodilei'd take that bet right now. crocs are barely predators (in terms of hunting prey, they basically sit and wait), and if you stay far enough away, it's probably going to sit still for the entire 15 minutes---POWER GAP--->2. hippowill 100% fuck me up and are very territorial, but not necessarily carnivores and there's at least some chance of just keeping my distance and maybe not dying>3. tigeryeah I'll die but it'll be a relatively fast death, probably to the neck or something---POWER GAP--->4. bearI'm definitely dying, but not for a few hours. the bear will literally eat me alive while I lay on the ground. the adrenaline will numb the pain, but I'll still feel the tugging and hear the tearing of the flesh off my bones
$100 million for 15 minutes with the bear?if only I had $100 million
>>154656481>Doesnt say if i can't bring a gunill take the 4 at the same time
>>154656481in its natural habitat, the croc is the most dangerous one here tbqh
crocodile, they stop feeding if they are full and they don't wanna work that hard to eat in the first placelearned that shit from my boy steve irwin rip
I usually only last a minute or two with a bear.
>>154656481croc is obviously the easiest but i feel like i could befriend the tiger
>>154656481Hippo = you are deadBear = you are fucked, and possibly deadTiger = will only attack you if it feels threatened or is too hungryCroc = on land? relatively easy to fool, compared to the others. on water? you are probably dead
>>154656481hippo. I've done my own research that they only craves watermelons instead of human flesh so I would be fine.
>>154656481gator, this is easy. You can outrun them, outclimb them and in melee you can just get behind their neck too.
>>154656841IIRC hippos kill more people per year than lions or tigers do and the scary thing is it's not even for food, they just kill people because they want them dead
>>154656481the fuck is a hippo gonna do, waddle over towards me?
>>154659178These fuckers are way too fast for weighing up to 2.5 tons. When they're pissed at least, which is apparently a regular occurrence despite them being fatass herbivores. Good luck escaping then if you're somewhat close
>>154656481Croc, not even close, anyone who picks any of the other three is a jackass, but surviving a croc is easy money, they're pretty fast, but not THAT fast, and if you take their back and sit on them, you can ride it out for 15 minutes no prob, if it squirms away, it most likely won't fuck with you again. The other three are just pure death. Maybe you could survive the hippo, but it has enough size to crush you. At least with the croc, you just have to get past the jaws. The hippo can fuck you up from every side, one kick, one paw, you'd be lucky as hell to get away if it wanted to fuck you up. They're faster than they look, and you might think you could bust out some Barry Sanders-esque moves to run away, well, good luck with that.
>>154659178Hippos can run faster than olympic sprinters. If they decide to go after you you better hope there's a tree or building nearby
>>154659259>>154659222everything I read about hippos says 30 mph...over short distanceshow short is that distance?
>>154659259And the thing is, once it fucking has you, you won't escape. They will bite your fucking head and hold you down and stomp on you and disembowel you while dislocating several vertebrae with sheering forces. Maybe Barry Sanders could run around it's ass out in the open, but if he gets tripped or knocked over or loses his balance just once, that hippo could so easily bowl him over and trample him and it would be ring-a-ding-ding for him right then and there.
With all due respect to crocodiles, but where can I sign up for this? I'd do it for one million already. The other three are suicide
>>154656481the crocodile's a fish, so it would have no chance against me on land
>>154656481This thread got me thinking about why Crocs are so relatively non-threatening despite being apex predators who are basically dinosaurs with huge jaws of death and then I realized: it's because they're entirely *ambush* predators. Their whole shtick is catching victims unaware, putting the clamps on and then just going underwater and letting the river do the work for them. They don't chase prey or really even grapple with it. They either land the OHK or reset the trap. So if you can negate the fatal strike they don't really have a plan B. Whereas if a tiger or bear misses you the first time you can't just get behind them and hold their jaws shut because even if you somehow had the strength the claws will maim you instead. And I sincerely doubt anyone's ever tried wrestling a hippo, it would be like wrestling a car.
You'd really have to fuck up for the Croc to kill you. The Bear could potentially be scared away but it's unlikely. You don't have a shot against many big cats, but they might not kill you for 15 minutes, they can sometimes fuck around for fun. The Hippo is killing you 100% of the time just for shits and giggles, immediately.
>>154659280Just long enough to reach you
>>154659313I just remembered that video of the elephant murdering that jeet where it basically chewed on his head for a bit then folded him up like a table. Fucking horrifying
Hippo would be the worst because they're aggressive twats and would destroy you just for having the cheek of being on their turf. The bear and tiger could go either way depending on if they're hungry or not, they might just leave you alone. The croc is the safest choice if we're on land, you can easily deal with one unless it's in a really tight enclosed space
>>154659523I actually stumbled across a black bear once up at my family's cabin. Just turned a corner and there it was, we both sort of panicked and ran in opposite directions. In retrospect it was pretty funny since the bear just noped the fuck out despite me being like a 14 year old kid but still, it produced this immediate rush of fear and adrenaline because it was fucking big and your brain instinctually recognizes large predators as threats, even if they turn out to be kind of giant pussies. Bears breaking into the cabins was kind of commonplace but fortunately they seem to realize humans are dangerous and only do it when they think no one's there.
>>154656481>crocodilei would quickly get to it back, lock a rnc and strangle it to deatheasy win for me>hippipotamusmy tactic would be to wait for it to charge at me then jump out of its way at the last second like a matador, i would then oblique kick its short stubby legs until it quitsanother easy win for me as long as im careful>tigeri would probably lose but i would still have a chance if i managed to time a mean hook right on its chin>beardepends a lot on the size and what kind of bear im fightingblack bears are easy work but brown and white ones are probably unbeatable
>>154657481Swap Hippo and bear. The main question here is not if they can kill you, but how likely they are to attack. I would take the death statistic to imply that Hippos are the most likely to attack. WIth a bear, I think there is a good chance it won't attack you if you signal that you're no threat (or depending on the type of bear, if you demonstrate dominance, which could be an issue if you can't identify them).
>>154656481Croc. The other three will run you down.
>>154659137for the love of the gamehonestly didnt help that they looks round and doesnt have a bad pr in mainstream media
>>154657619so what's the priority list in terms of which animal needs to be shot first after you enter the enclosure!
>>154660178i hope that motherfucker bringing a big gun with a lot of ammo, because a handgun probably just pissed off like 2 of them even more or barely even hurt them
Depends. Am I a woman alone in the woods? Then I'll obviously take the bear
>>154660200What about one ammo, but a very big one?
>>154660219kekimagine miss and then sprain your fucking wrist while trying to run away
>>154656481Croc or tiger, if they just ate they would ignore me as long I don't jump in their mouths.
>>154656481Tigers wouldn't eat you right away even if they are hungry. They'll play with you and even bite you non-lethally. You can't outrun a bearHippo would destroy you even without knowing itA cocodriles would drown you.Therefore I'm taking my chances with the tiger.
>people picking crocsAssuming you're in the water cause why wouldn't you be, there's no way you could survive a croc, it would outswim you and drown you while tearing you to shreds. the obvious answer here is hippo. it's the strongest of the four and but it's the least likely to attack you because it's not predatory, you could survive 15 minutes without it even noticing you whereas with the other three you're definitely fucked
>>154656481Crocs are bros if you're not trying to rape them
>>154660701hippos kill anything that come near it, they kill about 500 humans a year
>>154659137I always considered they do it because the baby hippo is walking underwater and yea if you show up in that water mama will snap you in half for a good reason.Without any rules set I would pick the tiger I would guess thats the one with the highest chance to just leave me alone
>>154660735That's because humans are stupid and hippos are practically fucking blind, they panic when approached. but if you're careful and not retarded they wouldn't go out of their way to fuck you up, unlike the other three
Another fun fact for the crocodile pick: Their bite force is one of the highest, but only when clamping down. If something holds their mouth shut, they don't have the necessary power to force their mouth open. Expert croc handlers can easily keep a croc's maw from opening as long as they stay focused on top of it.Unless I'm thinking of alligators, then I'm just speaking diarrhea out my ass
>>154656481Gators just sit there or hang out in the water for the most part, theyre the obvious answer
>>154656481Croc no question
>Sports?
The Croc is the only one a human can possibly survive against, but only on land. In water you're obviously dead against any of them.
Croc and hippo would be in a water arena you retards
Are we absolutely sure it's a crocodile and not an alligator? And is one of them more dangerous than the other?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXn1g0xtUMk
>>154662693Looks like a crocodile to me. Alligators are lazy fucks. Crocodiles are larger, faster and more aggressive. There apparently are quite a few Americans who got fucked up because they encounter crocodiles and expect them to behave like alligators>>154662628No one said that, they aren't fish, they have legs
arent you safe on a hippo backside?Crocos can spin and rotate and their tails will cripple you while you are still trying to get behind them. oh well, natural selection. more btches for me
The bear will start eating you alive back at the ass region so after 15 minutes you are still alive and therefore win the bet
A tiger kills you instantly A hippo rips you in halfA gator rolls until you're torn into pieces and deadA bear eats you aliveSo if the bear can just eat my leg, I'd win
the alligator
>>154656481The latter apparently is an alligator, not a crocodile. So easier. I can't beat any of them in a fight, but the alligator is likely super lazy anyway and won't bother me. If I have more than 15 meters of distance between us, I can likely avoid it. These things are quick over short distances, but they cannot make turns well and tire out quickly, they are not runners. And IF it comes to a fight, I might have a shot against the alligator at least ... not in beating it, but in avoiding getting eaten for a bit. The others can and will kill me in a second - or worseThe only exception is if this shit takes place in water, then it's over anyway. Might still take the alligator, but I wouldn't take the bet then. On land: let me try it and keep the 100 million ready, because I believe anyone can do this if they are not retarded
>>154657566>money can't buy happinesshe looks very happy to me
>>154663362That's cause he's full of Captigon
>>154656841Yeah, hippos are super aggresive, the most dangerous mammal on land and one of the most dangerous land animals under normal conditions, some people understimate them because they are herbivore and tend to spend most of their time lazing on water but set a foot one inch into what they consider their territory and you better say your prayers.
