There’s no way a single dude is dropping a horse with their bare hands.
How many dudes do you think it would take?
I say it takes at least 5 average humans to put a horse in the ground without weapons. And if the horse is also fighting to the death you’re losing a couple people for sure.

OP is talking about horses, not donkeys. Also, I hope your donkey wasn’t harmed in the process of getting this information.
Ill need a pic of the source for reference.
I agree with your ass
All you have to do is snap its neck, just jump on it and hang from it.
I don’t think jumping on it while it’s fighting you will be easy at all, unless you’re jumping down from a structure at the right time and have balls of steel
Just wait it out. Domestic horses are good at dropping themselves.
A single rear leg kick from a horse can easily break your skull apart, snap your neck or spine, cave in your entire chest, snap your femur, shatter your hip.
One good connecting hit and basically 99% of people are dead, paralyzed for life, or at best, extremely seriously injured and needing immediate hospitalization.
An unarmed human is not going to win an aggro’d fight with a horse in some kind of cage match scenario, unless its very young, very old, or quite sick or already injured.
Horses can be very dumb though: In a more real world scenario, you may be able to spook them into breaking their own legs on uneven ground, or even just running off of a goddamned cliff or into a tree or some other obstacle.
Alternatively: Spend the hour of prep time getting horse feed and poison.
Don’t fight it, befriend it, and then betray that trust.

Do I get prep time?
After review by the panel of judges, their response is:
‘Neigh!’
The horse says DOCTORATE DENIED.
Nowhere in the rules says it has to be a fair fight. What if I just shoot the horse from outside of its pen?
I mean sure, just learn some trigonometry, grab a map, and a mortar, and kablamo rofl, toss in a grenade, jerry rig an ied drone, rofl.
unfortunately for the horse, i’m in the 1%
Are you by any chance a centaur, perhaps an andalite?
Let’s say it was reasonable to 1v1 a horse.
I wanna know what a lone horse does to prepare for a fight, that turns the tables from winning to losing…
Eats, shits, pisses, and complains.
No clue how that helps it win, but thats about all a horse is gonna do with an hour of solo prep time, lol.
What is the horse going to do with prep time? What am I missing? This seems crucial.
He could have someone put some armor on, I imagine.
Now my scenario of shooting the horse while standing outside of its pen seems not as unfair. Guess I have to go with the mortar idea someone else suggested.
What’s the girl equivalent of this? I’d like to have some conversations with my wife that don’t send her off on list-making/plan-making expeditions or remind her of something she wanted to research on the internet.
Try the same question. Maybe just a slightly smaller horse. Prep-time negotiable.
“Which one of your friends could you take in a fight?”
“What do you want to eat tonight?”
NO
My rule is anything smaller than my knees is gettin it’s ass kicked. I’ve got strong legs and decent form while kicking, and so far haven’t found a creature that size I couldn’t fend off with a good hit. So far that’s mostly meant wild dogs and a goose.
Wild boar has used tusk to knee. It is really effective!
if a wild boar is shorter than like a foot and a half ig I’ll have to grit my teeth and take a stabbing. I’m pretty sure that would have to be a baby or juvenile boar though, and as a general rule I think I can kick any babies.
Honeybadger
I mean I’d try, and almost certainly get my leg fucked up in the process. Thankfully, I don’t think I’m likely to ever encounter one in the wild, and I hope that I’d be able to resolve the situation peacefully if I ever did.
Nope. You can’t.
anything smaller than my knees
How big are your knees?
I mean like total volume of creature > height of my knee.
Crocodile?
Damn this is a good point. I’ve never been anywhere where they’d be an issue.
I’ve always heard they’re quite slow on land though, is that true? If so, yeah I’m pretty sure it won’t like getting stomped really hard from behind.
I’m also not sure if I’m counting it if the animal is very long. The technical formula is total volume of animal > height to my knee, so I’d only try to kick a baby to juvenile croc. I don’t think my kicks would do much good to like a 300lb crocodile as long as I am tall.
They can go pretty fast over short distances.
But yeah, you could probably take a baby, assuming momma isn’t around.
Cool if I quote you on that?
As long as you film yourself fighting the baby croc.
I’ve played with them at the zoo. Bitey, but squishier than you’d think. Does that count?
Idk, playing with them isn’t quite fighting them. Did you at least sneak up on them before playing?
just yoink it
A goose? You’re scary!
Is that Minecraft server still online?
Oh lol. I didnt even see that when i googled for the steroid horse
Is it okay to use the surroundings? Humans are good with this. Also with improvising tools. It’s kind of our thing. (If we take this away, we’ll be way worse but I would get it.) The problem with that is that it’s super hard to measure. I could take on a horse in a jungle, I think, but not in the Eurasian Steppe.
It also depends on the age and character of the animal. I was able to grab a swan by its neck and throw it away because it was barely an adult. I bet it would have been a lot harder if it was a year older and even more aggressive. (This was in self defence of course)
Another thing to consider is the premise. Do I choose an animal and the animal is not aware of the danger? Is it aggressive towards me in the normal range of its species? Does the animal try to kill me with all of its power?
If I hear of people grabbing animals by the neck and throwing them away I’d normally be concerned but if you tell me it was a Swan or a Goose I’m like yeah makes sense, they probably deserve it the aggressive little pricks.
We had this question in a board game where the other people have to guess what animal I would pick. I opted for a herbivore - goat or sheep or something. I can only remember one other answer and that was my 7 year old son who quite brilliantly thought I could take a sperm whale.
Maybe on land.
Herbivores can be more dangerous than carnivores because when they fight or flight it is for their lives and carnivores don’t want to be injured while killing.
A panicked deer will destroy you if it happens to flee into you. Not because it is trying to harm you, but because it weighs a lot and is flailing around like a madman. A goat would do some damage, especially if it gets a chance to head butt you and decides to follow up.
Do. Not. Fuck. With. A. Moose.
What’s a horse going to do with prep time? Grow opposable thumbs and learn how to use tools?
Cut to the horse doing a Rocky IV training montage
Run? You can’t beat the horse if you can’t catch up to it.
Every fucking time this is posted. Goddamit, OP, they’ll be at this shit for hours like crows with a diamond ring.
Like beating a dead horse
Think I can beat that one
I want to trash-talk her for wasting time in a way that involves wasting another human’s time, but its a bigger problem that so many people are lonely and afraid of wasting the time of others. Get out there and troll IRL, people!!
he better be riding the horse over a rocky steep incline and not actually trying to fight it. why do they go for big animals? I can take a cat. maybe. most birds native to North America.
A cat can be nasty. If it goes straight for your eyes with its sharp claws you are fucked… If you manage to kick it properly first, then it’s fucked. I think the outcome of the fight can really be black or white.
So I assume that doesn’t count condors or eagles?
They really aren’t great in a land battle.
Unarmed, I think I could comfortably defeat almost any four legged creature that stands lower than my knee.
I want to see you fight a crocodile.
I was very clear when I said almost
Aligator?
Ffff… scrblmlmlblm chewing noises
I can wrestle a modestly sized gator on land. I know I can catch certain nonvenomous snakes. Catching turtles and tortoises is pretty trivial, aside from snapping types.
Size really does count for a lot. So does a creature’s inability to bend enough to bite you if you grab it a certain way. Finally, how willing are you to deal with some pain? Because you’re probably gonna bleed.
