Brutal simulation shows which animal attack would hurt you the most out of gorilla, kangaroo and horse

Maybe humans should just stick to fighting each other

You might have noticed a lot of chatter online recently about people pitting humans against animals in hypothetical fights.

The most notable of these was the recent trend of users talking about 100 men vs 1 gorilla, which even Elon Musk got involved in, offering to be cannon fodder, sorry, I mean a participant in the fight.

While the 100 men vs 1 gorilla fight seems to have been fully explored, it's now led to people online wondering what would happen in a fight against other animals. Just to save you some time here, it's not much of a fight, it's more a case of looking at how much damage you'll body will take before your brutally broken to pieces.

Over on Instagram, Zackdfilms has even gone as far as creating a digital simulation of what might happen if you were attacked by a gorilla, horse, or even a kangaroo.

What happens if you get kicked by a horse?

OK, lets start with one of the more common attacks. What happens if you're kicked by a horse.

If a horse were to kick you, you would likely end up with your ribs shattered, which could lead to you suffering from internal bleeding as the broken bones rupture your insides.

While a kick to the head or face could lead to fractured bones, such as the jaw.

Over the years, riders have experienced broken bones, deep lacerations, and in some cases, even a cardiac arrest due to being kicked by a horse.

What happens if you get kicked by a kangaroo?

While a kangaroo is often portrayed as a friendly animal, they're actually powerful wild animals which are capable of delivering up to 750 pounds of force.

Not only can they cause more damage to a human than my ex after a night out, but they also have razor sharp claws which are designed to tear flesh apart. They also have a bite that is comparable to that of a grizzly bear.

A kangaroo kick can cause serious injury, or even death. The damage from a kangaroo kick can range from simple scratches and bruises, to internal bleeding, organ damage and broken bones.

What happens if you get punched by a gorilla?

To put this into perspective, a typical human can throw a punch with around 150 pounds of force, while a trained boxer can deliver up to 750 pounds of force.

A gorilla on the other hand can punch with a force between 1,300 and 2,700 pounds.

A punch to the torso can cause broken ribs, internal bleeding, damage to your organs and of course, death.

The human skull take take around 550 pounds of force, which means if a gorilla punches you in the head. Well, let's face it, you're not going to shake that off.

Animal attack simulation

If all the above information still isn't enough to stop you wanting to pick a fight with one of these animals, take a little look at Zackfilms simulation of these attacks over on Instagram. Maybe that will be enough to change your mind.

As you can see, picking a fight with any of these impressive animals just really isn't worth it - especially a gorilla.
