There's no comparison, it's the largest canivore just after the big bear breeds. :-P Kinda certain that the whales are the largest carnivores... You would be correct had you added the "land" part - and then again most bears are actually omnivores and off the top of my head I can only really think of the polar bear as a true carnivore. | ||

I imagine the human would win if they are agile enough to avoid getting their arms lodged between it's teeth. | ||

I looked it up (google) and a tiger is indeed alot bigger then a german sheppard (wich is not realy a suprise even to me) Still i think people underestimate the dog. The pics on the previous page are a good illustration, and thats from a dog who just aims to take you down, not kill you. | ||

Eventually my strategy was to take off shirt/jacket and wrap it around one arm. Most of the time the dog would lunge for your most exposed part, so I'd offer my arm and hope to god he'd just get an armful of cloth. Once he bit, I'd try to jam my fingers in his eyes. The few times they actually _got_ my arm, I thought for sure I was going to lose it. Those things are fucking strong. At that point, they'd often get bored/upset and run back home. After a few episodes like that, I just started carrying a big stick lol. If you poke at a farm dog from 8ft away for a while, he will find something more interesting to do in a hurry haha If you locked me in a cage with one, I'm pretty sure I'd die. You have no room to maneuver, and if it gets behind you or pull you forward, it's going to go for your throat and then it's over. How are you going to kill it? Choke it out? Good luck... PS. This is one of the most hilarious threads I've ever read here | ||

Though if it was preplanned and the human got time to read about weak spots on dogs, behaviors etc the human would win. Basing this on myself since I dont know shit about dogs. .... There's absolutely no possibility for a human who isn't well trained in self defense and really strong to take down a german shepard. And even then it will be really tough. People don't figure how strong dogs are until they see it. Dogs are incredibly underrated, like in movies where they show people running away from them when in reality that's just not possible. | ||

On topic, I could probably beat the dog, but I'd probably be getting an arm or something amputated afterwards. So... lose-lose? :/ Also no guarantee I won't be bleeding my ass to death after the dog is dead, but assuming he doesn't pull a smart predator and just circle while I'm bleeding my ass off I can probably kill it.

my dad has a police dog and i can tell you this: if this dog is told to kick you in the ass, there´s nothing you can do about it. sure, some guys that are under thie influence of drugs or alcohol sometimes feel the pain a little later, but this dog never lost a fight with a human beeing - never. so if a dog gets the strict order to kill you (which is by the way a prett sick constructed situation by OP), you have not a bit of a chance. imagine: just a single bite in your face and you are screwed. | ||

Then I posted a video demonstrating a martial arts technique in which a man is blocking a kick without parrying. It doesn't freaking matter if its uncommon it completely invalidates what you said. Then you ramble on about a bunch of random facts completely unrelated. You often see legs snap in half from those types of kicks. REALLY? OMG SHOCKER!!!!! Perhaps it's because they're being BLOCKED. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_(martial_arts) http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/linguistics-and-philosophy/24-241-logic-i-fall-2009/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man Uh what is your point. In the common usage of the word, a parry is a deflection to modify the angle of attack so as to put the least amount of resistance to the attack while still being able to nullify it. A block is usually trying to the stop the force dead in its tracks. Fine I will re-word it, you don't block a kick, you deflect it at most. (conditions apply: you are a muay thai fighter with steel legs) Its pretty easy to dodge a kick, and you are implying a dog can't? | ||

EDIT: It was also literally impossible to prise their jaws apart untill they "released" to gain a better grip on the other. I was practically helpless to stop them other then screaming and shouting, beating the fuck out of them and shoving my hand in their mouthes untill that point. This is one bite, when the dog was not even aimed at attacking me. My stomach and legs we're also scratched and heavily bruised. The dog, will win. No questions. Note: This dog did not mean to attack me, my sister still owns her to this day, we had to part with the 2nd dog as they would fight over food, who was "top dog" and the likes, but she has also gone to a very good home and is fine, both 100% lovely with children and people. The ONLY reason i was hurt is because i literally jumped into it and had my hand in their mouths trying to prise them apart, when it happened prior, one ended up with a hole in her head. | ||

What the...did someone think a tiger would be the same size as a german shephard? The fuck man, some breeds of tiger get to like 600lbs ez. Anyone who'd vote for human over tiger in a similiar poll is insane haha. | ||

The real question is would anyone survive in a room with a English Mastiff... <---- is a lion hunter in Africa. I had one, it was 6'3 standing on 2 legs the motherfucker was massive... Let me tell you guys a story. One day my dog was outside, and I hear "boom" and obviously I'm like holy shit... My dog is on the road, got hit by an 18wheeler going 90kmh, the poor fucker got ran over by an entire side of the truck (that's 9 tires if you're curious) and was howling and crying... Saddest thing I ever saw, we picked it up and ran to our van (or usto have a van before ford focus) and drove about 130 the entire way to the vets, got there and the dog was still conscience and we're like "holy shit it might make it", well we find out it fractured its spine (barely) but it was enough that we had to put it down... Story to note? That's a big fucking dog, and dangerous if you piss it off. | ||
