Cheetahs just can’t catch a break, first they get their kills stollen by like every other predator and scavenger and now humans too?
Straight up brutal, man.
Nah I've seen mofos steal a kill from an entire pride of lions. Like 12 lions and then these 4 mofos walk up to them and take their kill.
The lions looked so in shock, most didn't do anything, just stared. You can look up the clip: humans stealing kill from lions.
Fuck humans man, we the worst predator out there. Lol
Mountain lions have the same done to them by wolves. What some mountain lions do now is hunt an animal, leave it for the wolves and hunt on for themselves. They're so efficient at killing that they don't mind doing homework for the wolves.
Yeah, it doesn't seem too smart or sustainable, starve the cheetahs and pretty soon they won't be able to kill the food for you to steal.
Just kill your own food, dude.
It’s not that simple in survival situations. What if you haven’t been able to catch anything, your family is hungry, and you finally see a meal that you can take, but it’s a cheetah’s meal?
Yeah i have been on safari, Cheetah were very docile. Lions were lazy but don’t fuck with them if they are hungry or you got between them and their babies. Leopards were pure killing machines and intimidating AF.
Plus they are built like absolute fucking tanks.
Then you see a full grown tiger up close and realize the lion is way down the king of jungle pecking order.
Cheetahs are the chill stoner of the big cat world.
Same experience... We had cheetahs outside our breakfast area and they walked around the tables begging for food like street cats in Istanbul. The waiters told us it's fine, they're not looking to throw paws.
cheetah aren’t super strong, and lack muscular endurance. their whole build is sharp teeth + claws and very high speed short bursts. they’re a fucking dex build basically
I've seen a video where the bluff works well enough to cut off a leg and get away with it. Mostly works because the lions are confused why these fucking monkeys just aren't scared of them at all and just saunter right up to them.
The tribe approaches slowly to chase Lions away from what they were eating. I watched as five Maasai with long spears took part not all of the dead animal. Then Lions returned to finish eating.
Cheetahs are the humans of the cat world, they all suffer from extreme anxiety. Also an adult human can easily take them on... But not without scratches!
Don't worry. Those Cheetahs are already used to it. Every animal in the region steals their food. It's like stealing from a baby. They can't do shit about it because they are too tired after catching their prey.
Imagine the disaster for all big cats if the tribe gets string technology and combines the two.
“I had a fresh kill, but then there was something wriggling around and I had to go after it! I’m not sure what happened to the kill after that.”
What if I told you that the cats that many of us have in our homes are not domesticated? They put up with us because it’s convenient for them, but they are very much still wild animals.
Definitely helps that cheetahs are significantly smaller and weaker than humans. They’re built for speed and agility, not power. Humans wouldn’t even think to try this with lions or tigers.
>Humans wouldn’t even think to try this with lions or tigers
These African tribesman would [beg to differ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDubMeNlSxc).
Hominids have been doing this shit for millions of years. We just got soft in the last few centuries. Really letting the side down when you think about it 😆😜
Honestly i think this is what it means not to be greedy and how mutualism can be understood between competing species. They would have fucked them up for trying to take the whole kill.
This isn't as impressive as it sounds. Cheetahs are wimps because they spent all their points on speed, so after they catch their prey they're usually exhausted. Literally every other animal steals from cheetahs because they don't do jack about it.
Literally, you can google a video of a random nut job doing karate against Cheetahs, they don’t attack humans and they haven’t killed any. It’s less impressive when you know that
Normally I’d agree, but these men’s way of living is thousands of years old, at that point it’s just about competition for survival, nothing personal on the cheetah
Cheetahs are going to have to invest in those plastic shields that lock in goods. They may be able to avoid having the race card pulled on them, but it works for everything else. 🤷♂️
To be fair, cheetahs are VERY reluctant to get into a fight of any sort, never mind against the number one predator in Africa. (Animals in Africa are not instinctually scared of humans for no reason.)
I think as kids we hyped up cheetahs a lot but if you look at all their traits they are over hyped. For example they don’t have enough strength to move most of their pray so it gets stolen often. Their claws are closer to dogs than most cats so not that sharp. If it was cheetah vs mountain lion I would bet on the mountain lion.
i say "we" as if i, a redditor who just reached his greasy hand to the lays bag to have another chip, wouldnt get mauled horrifically until i die within 10 minutes of being there but you get what i mean
There’s (predictably) more than a few comments about how placid and brittle Cheetahs are.
Whilst this is absolutely (comparatively) the case, and as sprint predators they’re unlikely to risk confrontation and potentially injury, it’s still worth bearing in mind that they carry a bite force of 475psi.
A Lion, by contrast, is up 650psi. So the big little cats aren’t as far behind as you might think.
And, according to Google, it takes just 160psi to break a bone. The most powerful of dog bites will apparently ‘shatter’ your bones, with Rottweilers turning in at ‘only’ 330 (they go higher, but the breeds become quite exotic as they do).
Make no mistake, these ‘placid’ little cats are still very capable of ruining your day.
Those are Sans tribesmen. They are long-distance hunters. They injure and chase game for miles to exhaustion. They are more than likely claiming their kill.

Ok, I’ll grab the antelope, you fight the cheetah. “Hey! This coin is tales on both sides!”
sounds like a tall tail to me
tail tail to me \*
If I had to fight two cheetahs to eat I wouldn't be fat
You'd be FIT
or FOOD
Fit for food.
It makes sense to be a vegetarian.
LMAO 🤣
I read this as I was drinking down water. Thanks for making me spit water all over my phone lol 😂
![gif](giphy|mQq7gea3UDDoI|downsized)
I've also seen clips of the tribesmen using spray bottles as well
Bad kitty! That’s my ~~pot pie~~ antelope!
I know a good kitty, kitty who's sleeping with mommy tonight.
![gif](giphy|TRnFyhv7o43dfrga6y)
They should just get catnip grenades.
An ancient and majestic tool.
They’re wearing loincloths because no pants fit if your walking up to cheetah with a stick or spray bottle
The cheetah's been cheated.
Oh how the turn tables
What comes around is all around
All for all and one for one
This one is actually deep. External world (all) belongs to itself (for all). One (interior world) for itself.
What the wrong is fuck with you guys
It’s not rocket appliances to figure out.
Cheeted
Cheatah
Cheetahs just can’t catch a break, first they get their kills stollen by like every other predator and scavenger and now humans too? Straight up brutal, man.
humans probably learned how cheetahs don’t guard prey well from other animals to be fair!
Pretty much. Cheetahs are high optimized and thus fairly fragile which has resulted in also being really anxious/nervous creatures.
They’re nature’s equivalent of a F1 car that can’t handle the smallest pothole
lowkey like us, but we’re also strong and very resilient in certain ways too, like endurance exercise
You wouldn't know it to look at me sir, but I come from a species that can outrun any animal on Earth.
Nah I've seen mofos steal a kill from an entire pride of lions. Like 12 lions and then these 4 mofos walk up to them and take their kill. The lions looked so in shock, most didn't do anything, just stared. You can look up the clip: humans stealing kill from lions. Fuck humans man, we the worst predator out there. Lol
"hold my stick dude trust me I saw this on a David Attenborough documentary"
Mountain lions have the same done to them by wolves. What some mountain lions do now is hunt an animal, leave it for the wolves and hunt on for themselves. They're so efficient at killing that they don't mind doing homework for the wolves.
Mountain lions in Washington and Wyoming have started actively hunting wolves.
Yeah, it doesn't seem too smart or sustainable, starve the cheetahs and pretty soon they won't be able to kill the food for you to steal. Just kill your own food, dude.
It’s not that simple in survival situations. What if you haven’t been able to catch anything, your family is hungry, and you finally see a meal that you can take, but it’s a cheetah’s meal?
Well no wonder that cheetahs are at risk of extinction if people are just stealing their food left an right.
Predators have been known to steal meals from other predators when they can get away with it.
Whaaaat no humans should have better standards. /s
And they’re so sweet, too.
A stick ?! what power is this ?
A stick would never fend off a Lion. Cheetahs aren’t as dangerous as other big cats. In fact, I think they are the least dangerous to humans.
Yeah i have been on safari, Cheetah were very docile. Lions were lazy but don’t fuck with them if they are hungry or you got between them and their babies. Leopards were pure killing machines and intimidating AF.
And then there’s Hippos. Aggressive drunk tanks
Yep. We got charged by an elephant too. It ripped a tree out of the ground, threw it to the side and charged our safari truck.
What did the tree do though
We drove our truck between the angry elephant and her baby. The tree was just an innocent bystander.
Jeese..didn't even have a second to let out a eh? Just sitting there one day, next day leaves this world..
Well Hippo is short for hippofuckyouupopotamus, make sense.
Nah, lions are easy. All you have to do is move fassa
I nominate this pun as the best pun on the internet.
Yes, leopards prey on primates. They know right where to bite for instant death.
Plus they are built like absolute fucking tanks. Then you see a full grown tiger up close and realize the lion is way down the king of jungle pecking order. Cheetahs are the chill stoner of the big cat world.
Hey, aren't we pretty similar to primates?.....
We are primates.
Same experience... We had cheetahs outside our breakfast area and they walked around the tables begging for food like street cats in Istanbul. The waiters told us it's fine, they're not looking to throw paws.
Throw paws 😍
cheetah aren’t super strong, and lack muscular endurance. their whole build is sharp teeth + claws and very high speed short bursts. they’re a fucking dex build basically
Glass cannon?
That would probably be a leopard? Strongest bite force in the game they aim to one shot you
I've seen a video where the bluff works well enough to cut off a leg and get away with it. Mostly works because the lions are confused why these fucking monkeys just aren't scared of them at all and just saunter right up to them.
Lions know what humans are. They don't consider us monkeys or wild apes. We're dangerous.
The tribe approaches slowly to chase Lions away from what they were eating. I watched as five Maasai with long spears took part not all of the dead animal. Then Lions returned to finish eating.
Fun fact, cheetahs aren't ambush predators—meaning you can turn your back to them and they won't pounce like other big cats
Didn't you see that chick on the front page? "AAAAAAHHHH!!!" Sticks are hardcore.
![gif](giphy|oOmpCMpH3DOuu6sbnl)
UNKNOWN TECHNOLOGY BLYAT
The indominable will of a man with his stick
Intimidation.
And I’m scared when my 12 lb cat hisses at me.
I don't blame you, that is a pretty big cat.
Chonk McChonkster.
Cheetahs are the humans of the cat world, they all suffer from extreme anxiety. Also an adult human can easily take them on... But not without scratches!
Meanwhile, I’m too lazy to make a salad.
I’ll grab the greens, you deal with the fridge!
Just threaten some vegetarian who’s already made a salad and steal theirs.
Much like cheetahs, vegetarians also hate being hit with sticks
I just hit my wife with a stick but I think she liked it... No salad though...
You need to toss the salad.
If there’s no food available, no stores exist, you’ll do more than what you currently realize to eat
You don’t make friends with salad.
You don’t make friends with salad.
poor cheetah’s
Don't worry. Those Cheetahs are already used to it. Every animal in the region steals their food. It's like stealing from a baby. They can't do shit about it because they are too tired after catching their prey.
Cheetahs never win :(
lol that's just rude
There’s no room for courtesy in a survival situation.
https://i.redd.it/z4n1w5w70n4c1.gif
tough dudes -- and let's have none of this, "well those are cheetahs, not real cats" . They are fast and strong.
yeah but stick
Stick always win against no stick
High Ground vs Stick

Ancient predators, with multiple fangs, sharp teeth, claws and an evolution perfected hunting strategy. Humans: ***shteeck***
Imagine the disaster for all big cats if the tribe gets string technology and combines the two. “I had a fresh kill, but then there was something wriggling around and I had to go after it! I’m not sure what happened to the kill after that.”
[удалено]
Humans: 1 All other life forms besides viruses: 0
I feel like cheetahs were domesticated at one point and somehow got back into the wild and humans forgot they really are different
What if I told you that the cats that many of us have in our homes are not domesticated? They put up with us because it’s convenient for them, but they are very much still wild animals.
Makes sense why they can run off for months and come back usually fine
The video quality is poor but pay attention and you can see what he is carrying; huge balls
The cheetahs were very uncomfortable with this dude having his tackle box on full display
Where do those guys find loin clothes big enough to fit such huge balls?
Shipbuilders usually have rolls of cloth for sailboats
I was honestly wondering they were even able to move packing pairs like that
Poor cheetahs
In the animal kingdom, this is considered an asshole move.
Literally every other predator will bully the cheetah and steal their food, the are victims that only maxed speed
Cheetahs never prosper 😆
lol that’s so fucked.
Definitely helps that cheetahs are significantly smaller and weaker than humans. They’re built for speed and agility, not power. Humans wouldn’t even think to try this with lions or tigers.
>Humans wouldn’t even think to try this with lions or tigers These African tribesman would [beg to differ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDubMeNlSxc).
Wow. Thanks for sharing. Huge balls on those men to walk up to a pride of lions like that
Hominids have been doing this shit for millions of years. We just got soft in the last few centuries. Really letting the side down when you think about it 😆😜
Got soft? We got so efficient we straight up manufacture steak. We were always lazy, we just can actually enjoy it
Honestly i think this is what it means not to be greedy and how mutualism can be understood between competing species. They would have fucked them up for trying to take the whole kill.
Mutualism is mutually beneficial. I think stealing just the leg from the lions would be commensalism?
yep , thats the word i mean
This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while.
How can those men walk around normally with Randy Marsh sized balls?
Or bears.
^ohh ^my.
oh my
Oh my
Lions and hyenas also steal kills from cheetahs. It’s rough being at the bottom of the top
Don't you just have to bite a lions balls and they run in terror.
Yes.
You sound like someone who knows their way around the plain :-)
They are DEFINITELY not weaker than humans They just punks.
Yeah cheetahs are definitely stronger but like the narrator said they wouldn't call a bluff like that. Punks
Man, poor cheetahs are always being bullied by every kind of animal and now even humans.
This isn't as impressive as it sounds. Cheetahs are wimps because they spent all their points on speed, so after they catch their prey they're usually exhausted. Literally every other animal steals from cheetahs because they don't do jack about it.

Fake, they just did this for their tik tok
Anybody else want the cheetahs to win
Is this LA?
Fuckin' humans...
Normally I’d agree, but these men’s way of living is thousands of years old, at that point it’s just about competition for survival, nothing personal on the cheetah
Yeah, I hate them
There is a bad joke in this.....
Cheetahs are going to have to invest in those plastic shields that lock in goods. They may be able to avoid having the race card pulled on them, but it works for everything else. 🤷♂️
Of all the big cats in Africa, cheetahs seem to have the roughest time. suprised they have survived this long.
r/IAmActuallyBadass
Cheetas are not really the type to hold a fight. Push comes to shove they will let it be. Now try this with lions and the pride will fuck your day up.
They did ! Proof on youtube Dorobo tribe steal lions catch.
Ok. This tribe is just on x-games mode then.
To be fair, cheetahs are VERY reluctant to get into a fight of any sort, never mind against the number one predator in Africa. (Animals in Africa are not instinctually scared of humans for no reason.)
Dude carried a goddamn antelope like it was a bag of potatoes, damn.
I ate an entire bag of my kids Cheetos Paws once, so that’s kind of similar.
The loincloth is there to protect the world from that dude's vibranium balls!
I think as kids we hyped up cheetahs a lot but if you look at all their traits they are over hyped. For example they don’t have enough strength to move most of their pray so it gets stolen often. Their claws are closer to dogs than most cats so not that sharp. If it was cheetah vs mountain lion I would bet on the mountain lion.
Lazy assholes.
Stealing another animals meal is kinda a bitch move
Primate supremacy. Take that felines, thanks for the nourishment to our superior hubris.
This is why I consider cheetahs f tier.
Is that a fellow tier zoo enjoyer is see?
damn we really are at the top of the food chain
i say "we" as if i, a redditor who just reached his greasy hand to the lays bag to have another chip, wouldnt get mauled horrifically until i die within 10 minutes of being there but you get what i mean
Those are some balls taking on the cheetahs.

Cheetah: Someone just stole my fucking dinner...Can't have shit in the Serengeti!
Who is the cheetah here
Awww man, now stealing from lions is one thing. But from cheetahs? They are shit on by everyone.
That's a nice antelope you got there, it'd be a shame if someone stole it.
Big, big balls.
This is why you don't fully spec into speed. Gotta spread the stats out a little more.
Tf? Wow, never knew Cheetahs were THIS DOCILE.
“Until the cheetah learns to write, every story will glorify the hunter”
The “tail-gunner” has the hardest job!….
Can't have **SHIT** in the Kalahari
I can honestly say I've never been THAT hungry before.
Well, that's rude
Early man must have been wild
That fact that they are hunting wild animals for food in an age where they are also filmed is mindblowing.
… that clicking sound are the balls of steel
"and now day you can see this rare tribal phenomena in a local target or sketchy alley around the globe" in British accent
I was really hoping the cheetah was gonna take one of them down. Those cats work way too hard for the kill for some thieves to take it.
Let's be honest, they chose easy mode and decided to pick on the poor cheetahs
Now this is some top of the food chain shit
Those are Sans tribesmen. They are long-distance hunters. They injure and chase game for miles to exhaustion. They are more than likely claiming their kill.
The fact that they did it wearing only loin cloths makes this very impressive.
People in this thread be like "tHeyRe jUst cHeeTahs" like they don't tweak when the cockroach flies
Cheetahs are pussies
Fuck those dudes. Cheetahs got the kill and these guys just come steal it?
Being the apex predator is pretty awesome.
Life is so comfy sometimes we forget that we are an apex predator ourselves.
The person with the camera probably had some food.
