You still don't understand what the criteria for HARD is! No it's not only based on small animals. The Orca is hardy f***ing small, is it? But it will take down massive whales much bigger than it. So it's HARD. Speak to turienzo, he is in charge, and he will tell you it is about the hardest animal POUND FOR POUND.



No, I'm not. As I've said above, the Orca should be there. The Bull Shark should be there. Both f***ing HARD animals. They shouldn't be penalised because they happen to be big, because if something even bigger comes along they'll still go steaming into it. A massive Tiger eating a big Deer is not HARD.

Come on Sim, you know the criteria. I know you hate the Honey Badger but you have to admit it fits the criteria of the competiton.



You think? Yes, I would be f***ing scared of a massive mosquito. BUT, who would win between a Tiger sized Mosquito and a Tiger? The Tiger would tear it apart I reckon. The Mosquito cant even SEE, for a start. How many hard blind people do you know?

You think tigers just haul down dear ha ha ha,they hack down beasts weighing well over a ton and fight many types of animals,the problem is all animals fear it and thats no surprise,a tiger would destroy just about anything and kills crocks aswell.

Deluded man

You try tackling this and they weigh upto two tonnes
Its a gaur

 

[Hillian1]

Is the Polar Bear now retired?

If not I'll put him up, watched something recently where it sits and waits for Whales to come up to a blow hole and PUNCHES the fuckers until unconscious then drags them out and eats the bits he likes.

Proper hard.

 

[fork me]

Er, are you talking Virus's here ?

No.

BTW, before you carry on trying to teach me about viruses I ought to tell you I'm a qualified microbiologist and spent 10 years in the lab at the RSCH before I retrained as a teacher. I know all about viruses.

To be fair, your description was pretty good, but I wouldn't include viruses here as they're not animals, the jury's out on whether they should even be classified as living, I've met virologists much higher qualified than me who describe them as "pathogenic chemicals".

 

[fork me]

That sounds pretty f***ing hard to me. Good nomination.

Shame it has no chance of winning because all the retards don't understand what the competition is about.

Agreed. It deserves to win, but the whole thing will just be a popularity contest.

 

[Lord Bamber]

Which reminds me, IMO the totals should be withheld until the poll is CLOSED.

Very good idea, if it can be done.

 

[jakarta]

Can I second the Moray Eel, f***ing horrible looking beast, went wreck fishing once and saw a huge one when it bit through the (steel reinforced) line as it surfaced. Wouldn't want to meet one in its own environment!

 

[fork me]

So, when does the voting start and do we get to big up our nominations?

 

[Marshal Josip Tito]

Has anyone nominated the PANDA yet?

Looks all cute and gay an that, but you just try getting in the ring with one.

May always have black eyes, but you shoulda seen the other guy...

[Norman Potting]

Please may I nominate the Death Stalker Scorpion - even Steve Backshall is scared of them.

 

[Marshal Josip Tito]

Shit. That means just half an hour for somebody to second PANDA or he won't make it, which would be a real shame
