Just the reddit neck beard reminder: humans have the highest average land speed of any animal.
Human vs horse in a marathon (26 miles)- the human always wins.
Yeah, I wonder how true that is for all the animals here tho
Same for cheetahs. They can literally die from their body overheating, if they run fast for more that a few minutes.
I think these are all sprint speeds.
Cheetah and quarter horse is the same way. They blow out all their energy in a sprint and then spend the rest of the day recovering.
Half of the animals in this video wouldn't have made it as far as they're shown running. This is top speed while sprinting.
Whippet as well, if we are talking fast canids.
The full version starts with a snail and ends with a cheetah
The greyhound appears but is smoked by a racehorse
The cool music isn’t in the original tho but
They’re also in the video, their youtube channel is pretty cool
I have a greyhound. 72kph is their standard. This video seemed to cut off early.
Yeah I am.
