A lot of men are very delusional with their abilities to fight wild animals.

In a survey from YouGov, people were asked what wild animals they thought they could successfully win a fight against, and the results are laughable. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Of the men polled, 7% believe they can beat a grizzly bear, 9% believe they can beat an elephant, 22% think they can beat a chimp and a shocking 23% think they can beat a king cobra.

Yes, you read that entire sentence correctly. There are actual humans (more than I would have ever thought) walking around the planet convinced they can win fights against the deadliest animals in existence.

I don’t want to accuse anyone of being a complete moron, but if you actually think you can take a grizzly bear or an elephant in a fight, then you deserve the Darwin Award that you’re inevitably going to win.

Imagine seeing a gigantic elephant in the wild and thinking to yourself that if you squared up, the human would win. It’s almost hard to believe this is real, but here we are.

I mean, do people not realize how fast cobras are? What is the strategy here? There’s not a human on the planet with the reaction time of a snake that is attacking.

It is truly amazing how dumb some people are, but I’m also not gonna lie. I would watch the hell out of a TV series where humans fought deadly animals. That would be required viewing.
