comparing bites to punches in force or torque or average force or whatever you're trying to do is pretty funny

last time i checked, dogs have razor sharp teeth and your fist is really really soft
boxing gloves are worn to protect the fists of the puncher, not the body of the receiver of the punch because fists are such a shitty fighting tool

to all the people who are saying that a human would win, i double dog dare you (huehhuehue) to go punch a large dog as hard as you can and see if it has any impact on it at all. again, dollars to donuts that it turns around and rips you to shreds. anywhere but the face is going to do absolutely nothing to the dog with their thick leathery skin and matte of fur. hitting a dog moving at this speed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuW84HhN3Wo) in the face would be a miracle.

the way that internet-goers overestimate themselves is so funny. i bet 90% of you couldn't kick a soccerball let alone a dog that can jump a 6' fence

oh wait no, that has not and will not ever happen. anyone who voted human is DELUSIONAL
the only way you would have ANY chance against any wild animal is with protective covering or a weapon. in a skin versus fur matchup, human stands 0 chance against nearly any wild creature except maybe a grape

your argument is funny because you act as if they guys are going to stop to fight a dog when they have a fleet of police after them or the fact that alot of people are scared shitless of it and freeze up and dont think.

we are talking a hypothetical situation where you ARE going to fight the dog.

actually after reading this guys other posts in this thread he has to be trolling or he really doesnt understand tactics i guess , not to mention dogs arent all that smart and are predictable.

Worst case scenario would be a broken arm or a couple lost fingers before you get into position on top of the dog and kill it from there. Strangle, break the neck, bash the head, whatever.

Anyone referencing police chases are silly. The criminal isn't trying to kill the mutt, he's trying to escape fool.

it'll most likely go for your hands or your ankles, so once it's latched on, if you can deal with the pain pwn it in the face. repeatedly.

Human should win this, they are a few Technics, but the basics are: always keep an arm ready to defend your throat, waiting for it to attack, when he does, either catch his throat before he does with yours, or if you can't give him your arm and while he is biting it, simply put a thumb in one of the eyes balls then turn reverse clockwise, intense pain, blindness and possible death if you went far enough.

Basic self defence trick i've been given as a liveguard.

Otherwise, as strange as it sounds, pulling strongly on their ears is very painful to them, not a way to kill obviously but it will at least make it stop biting if you are not willing to kill the beast
Just a few more drones I sware !

I would let the dog kill me, I am a morally corrupt person who is not as deserving as the dog who is pure and innocent. Dogs are better people than humans.

You guys are over estimating a dogs weapons. There was a guy that even had a mountain lion snap down on his throat twice and still managed to win. The same with sharks. People have beat these animals without weapons that weren't extraordinary humans. A human isn't the easiest of prey. Even a wolf would have a hard time managing to kill a man. The animals can easily injure a human, but to kill is another matter.

Most of the arguments that involve a dog winning seem to involve it getting to the neck/head on its first try.
The dog is a pack animal, it would very likely go for something it could reach easily like a leg, because a few dogs doing that could easy take down prey.

The human wins. They might not be in spectacular condition afterward, but they most definitely win.

The traffic and knifing ones don't apply, and if you read the articles, none of those choked dogs died. That might be a by-product of police interference however.

the middle article raises an important point though, is the dog wearing a collar?
relatedly, does the person have shoes on?

I think humans would win because they are smarter. A dog would go for the leg or something as it's hard to get to the neck when the person is standing, while the dog is biting the legs just puncture it's eyes. This recuire the person to keep calm from the pain ofc.

can you use shoes as a weapon, a good kick to the head should do enough damage or maybe even a knee, this wont be a close fight either way, with one comes out fine or the other comes out dead. it really depends on the person though.

I can imagine an average sized man but I cannot imagine an average sized dog.
What kind of dog?

Although in most cases I think the dog will win from what Im seeing from TL (average posters are talking about using their fists to punch the dog WTF - PUNCHING IS NOT GOOD FOR FIGHTING UNLESS YOU ARE TRAINED WITH IT, THE AVERAGE PERSON DOES NOT KNOW JACK SHIT ABOUT PUNCHING AND WILL LIKELY BREAK THEIR WRIST)

However - lets say an average sized WILD MAN vs average sized WILD DOG

both full on animal instincts, has a bunch of fighting experience due to wild etc etc etc

I would vote for the man, hes smarter, and has a lot more weapons (2 hands, 2 legs, various grapples etc etc)
A dog can only bite.

Even in the case of a smarter human who knows wtf hes doing vs an average sized dog I would still vote for the man.

A big dog I cannot say.

What an interesting person you are. If you're serious, just remember humans can change! I'd rather have people that have a chance to do a lot of good and a lot of bad then dogs that can't do much of either.

Also, I'm pretty sure he would kill a hundred puppies before dying if needed.
People who have been on the edge of death said that it doesn't matter how much you liked your life, how much you thought you'd fight before it happens, how much you wanted it to end (in cases of fail suicide): in the moment that you are actually facing death, you would do ANYTHING to survive. It's not under your control anymore, adrenaline and primal instinct kicks in. They said that you would give anything to live even for a few more minutes, even if the rest of your life would be spent on a tight rope with spikes underneath it, you would still choose that over death.
