This could be a regular thread.

Various different match ups. Fun to see the different answers.

I’ve seen a video of a pack of full grown wolves (not much smaller than the said bears, maybe 1/3 to 1/2 their size) attacking 3 brown bears where the bears are literally quartering a wolf. It’s not even a fight. The other wolves are trying to get at the bears, but they are nothing more than a nuisance. They cannot even get past the bears’ fur. The bears only turn around to shoo them away, then back to the one they’re dismantling. (I know we weren’t talking about brown bears or wolves, just some visual)

I’d say man is the only primate, or animal period, that could contest a grizzly and that would take high power weapons and distance. If I don’t have the distance…..I’d have to play dead and rely on the fact that they’re not normally that aggressive.

I think Tom beats Brad. They’re both about 60. Tom was in excellent shape, even going shirtless for that beach football scene, in Top Gun Maverick. He’s also totally sober from drugs/alcohol/tobacco.

Brad is a few inches taller, and per Google he’s sober now but has damaged himself with drugs/alcohol in the past. Has anyone seen bullet train? Is he doing any difficult stunts on his own or just fake punching people on a train?

Wild card here is that a lot of actors take steroids. If Brad roided up for Bullet Train, while Tom stayed au naturale to pass Scientology audits — then it’s a closer fight, but ultimately I still give it to Tom because he’s insane and would fight dirty.

Grizzly all day and twice on Sunday. Anyone who thinks otherwise has not seen a full sized grizzly bear, they are truly awe inspiring creatures. Seeing them near each other would leave little doubt. The polar bear would be its only even competition as they are larger than grizzly’s.

While a large Kodiak grizzly is about 5 foot, (can stand up to 10) and weighs 1,500 lbs.

Grizzly bears are also a lot faster than gorillas, which may surprise some.

You may be forgetting about a certain Mr. Chuck Norris.

This is great. Hard to say.

But I’m going Cruise on this one. Tough match up though. I’d pay to see that fight.

I’d bet a periwinkle blue caravan on Pitt.

This has been the most entertaining thread this year. ANOTHER CHEWEY!

[Blansky]

I think Brad Pitt's stunt double is tougher than Tom Cruise's or Chuck Norris' stunt double.

“Did you understand a word he just said?”

[Chewbacca]

Brad was a boozer and heavy smoker. I don’t think he’d last too long. Gotta go with Tom on this one Bri.

It was more a scientific pivot on my part but I’m happy you enjoyed it.

(Back to the drawing board)

The perfect definition of a great bar fighter.

We almost made it to what Mike Judge's envisioned year 2505 would look like... ironically also about hibernation.


Let's get back to CJ Hanna's wild world of animals

P.S. Jack Hanna was a legend. His show will be greatly missed as he struggles thru his health issues. Wishing him the best. While the topic of the thread is somewhat immature (sorry CJ, but my dad can beat up your dad jk), it is interesting to discuss animals nonetheless.

A big male Honey Badger would see off all comers.
They are the Mike Tyson of land based bite fighters .....absolutely fearless, ferocious, and ultra-smart.

This wouldn’t even be a fight. It would be an assassination. I don’t think the grizzly would pick a fight with a massive gorilla to begin with as there is easier prey to be had.

The bear also would presumably look at the gorilla as a potential meal whereas the gorilla wouldn’t be eating the bear. Motivation for a meal goes a long way.

All good points but there's a hole here. If the gorilla gave him the People's Elbow and finished him off with a Camel Clutch or Figure 4 Leg lock, it's good night Irene

[Hoodoo]

the one that has the rolex on the wrist win lol

Re: Pitt v Cruise it’s clear to me

[MILGAUSS88]

Well duh, a bear would win.

Now if you had said a bear versus a school of tuna, then that's a different story...........

You bet the Silverback would win if it was the Nature boy inside. No contest.

I agree. If it's Gorilla Monsoon, that changes the odds.

[Phrank]

Grizzly, outweighs that Silverback and is a lot bigger, and claws that’d rip you open stem to stern. Seen Grizzlies up close (not planned) and the Silverback, as a smart primate, would book it the F outta there….
