Most of us probably back ourselves to take on a rodent or other small creature in a fight and survive — if the situation calls for it, of course. There are some individuals, however, who reckon they could go face-to-face with beasts like grizzly bears or elephants in unarmed combat and emerge victorious.
Using the results of a YouGov US survey, Reddit user Jaded_Warrior123 visualized the percentage of Americans that think they could win a bare-handed fight against a variety of animals.
More than 70 percent of US adults are confident in their ability to beat a rat in a fight, and 69 percent think they could tackle a house cat.
At the other end of the scale, though, a concerning eight percent of Americans say they could defeat a gorilla, an elephant or a lion with their bare hands. An even more staggering six percent of those surveyed fancy their chances against a grizzly bear. Pure delusion.
