@skirts365 You can say that going to war for your country makes you more heroic, more of a man or whatever. But it can't make someone into a 6"4, 240lb behemoth with an iron jaw and power like a mac truck unless they already had the genetics. Let's be real here: no professional fighter ever stood and traded with George Foreman and won, even when he was an old man in his 2nd career. Anyone who tried, even Ron Lyle, got knocked the fuck out, because no matter how bad they were, he was stronger, hit harder and could take more. The only way to beat a guy like that was to outsmart him, to use skill, strategy and fast feet to outmaneouvre and outsmart him, take him to a decision or wear him down. And guys with that level of skill would be in the ring, not the military.

In future years I think people will look back and say George Foreman was the biggest winner of all!

The lion was probably shocked that a human actually swung at him, and it was the same human who had been feeding him. There was a news report of a woman scaring off a wolf who attacked her son because she kept screaming and making herself bigger and that intimidated the wolf. Animals often use loud threat displays to scare each other to avoid confrontaions.

@cockoffgewgle4993 Жыл бұрын

@@cygnusprime6728 It was probably more the lion responding to his assertion of dominance. If he grew up with the lion from a cub it would see him as a part of his/her pride, would respect him and would be unlikely to harm him. If it was less familiar with his brother it wouldn't have that problem with him. I'm speculating, I'd like to hear the real story. It seems like people who keep wild animals as pets usually end up fine, it's someone they know who gets attacked by it. It's usually bonded to the owner. eg. there was a couple who kept a chimp as a pet and it attacked some person who came to visit. They can also get jealous of people interacting with their owner(s).

My best friend was a Siberian husky/timber wolf mix. I saved her (technically stolen) from a 3 foot chain with no food or shelter after walking home from school for a month to give her my school lunch. Found out real quick that if not for the chain, she could support herself as long as there was wildlife around. The cost of dogfood was almost non-existent. She treed something once (think it was a beaver) and sat under the tree for 3 weeks not eating or drinking anything until the animal came down. I was getting worried that she was going to die from starving, and then I came home from school and she was not under the tree.only a torn up and unidentifiable carcass. Almost 18 years I had her until old age took her. Best damn friend I'll ever have. I could talk for days about the experiences I had with her next to me. Like how she protected my uncle's pet pig.. until it got fat 😂😂😂.
