12 criminals, all with guns and knives concealed up their asses, easy victory.

ok heres the situation: you're naked, and you see someone with a huge gash in their leg. aside from leading them in prayer theres really not much you can do. you don't even have a shirt to make a bandage.
help the wounded = pull them out so they don't get injured further or trampled.

Quote:
sticks? long objects? no. if this is outside there would be rocks, but this is in a big empty area. also: inflict internal injuries? how to you intend to go about that?
fifteen people simultaneously kicking and punching the lion's lower abdomen and knee/shin area as hard as they can is going to hurt it. these things aren't made of iron.



see its legs. they aren't THAT thick. continually focusing on a couple of its legs and it's going to lose mobility. once that happens it's ****ed.

Quote:
I don't know about the whole "well its not a trained lion" argument about fighting. If you watched the video, this is pretty much what a 550 pound lion does: run at you at 40 MPH and bite your face off. seriously. that speed and weight is enough to knock down 20 people in tight formation, then the lion would just go at it. they're "trained" by instinct.
a lion is not going to charge into twenty people. do lions charge into 20 wilderbeast?

the only reason the lion charged in that video is because it was being aggravated and provoked by the gunfire of those moronic rangers.

Quote:
the main problem is that its too hard to injure the lion. eyes yes, but even a blind lion could destroy 5 people. touch it and you die. And you're not going to be able to get in a good gouge due to its ability to turn its head away with extreme strength
what do you mean, touch it and you die? in that video i watched the lion doesn't even kill the guy, it lunges at him, knocks him over, and he just gets back up.

once the lion's mobility and vision is hampered, it is easy picking. having said that, a few people will probably get ****ed before then, but enough will be left to kind of hit and run from different angles and just stop it from feeding, besieging it if you will.

You're missing the point. The point isnt that what you describe wouldnt to damage, isnt that you would be able to get the lion into a position to do it. How are 15 people going to hold a lion down to punch it in the stomach. You're never going to be able to tackle it and even if you someone manage to get it down you're not going to be able to keep it there once it goes ape ****. Also 15 people arent even going to fit in close proximity to a lion with out getting into each others way.

This lion takes 4 bullets from about 5 feet away before he'll stop eating the guy and its still alive for a while. Its going to take a lot of abuse before he's hurt enough to not **** you up

at like 2:20

they don't need to hold it down. they just need to stay close enough to each other to get a few hits off before the lion retreats (which it will do like it did in the video so it doesn't get overwhelmed). not everyone needs to necessarily hit it each pass, but i'm fairly certain the lion will be sore/demoralized before 2-3 people are seriously hurt. and once that happens it will start to becoming much easier to take down.

also remember, the men getting charged/focused on aren't necessarily going to just stand there. they'd take evasive action, while other people are getting hits off. in the video (the one posted earlier) it looks as though the lion whiffed the attack. Plus the ranger was obviously ******ed and was still recovering from trying to shoot it so wasn't able to dodge it as well as he might of.

These lions killed a giraffe. Not really important to this thread but fun to watch. I laugh at the kids crying in the back ground

lol. If you watch really closely, you see the one lion jump and hit him in the chest and climbs its ****ing neck like a tree to get at the top of its throat

I am going to go with 30 people. And i estimate that at least 7 are going to die.
The humans only chance, obviously, is to stick together and attack at the same time.
I think the best tactic is to jump on it and hold it down. 15 people should be enough for that right?

What about if all the men played dead and lied down on the floor motionless? Eventually the lion would take a nap and then they could pounce.

I don't know if playing dead would work with a lion. Might be a bear or other animal I am thinking of.

no clue. I was just looking for lion attack videos so we could have a better frame of reference to what and how quickly a lion could do to someone

thing is, lions (and most other big carnivores) do most of their damage by biting and kind of latching on, using the immense strength in their jaws to create immense bleeding and hemorrhaging.

if it attempted this, the other guys would have ample time to really hurt it.

thus it won't be creating a hudge pool of blood in any short period of time like in that video

The taking 20 people and backing it into a corner and charge argument seems to be missing the fact that it can jump the **** over you and run away if it is intimidated. And LOL that it is going to be demoralized after a couple of wussy blows. In the video it was being shot and instead of just running away, it charged.

I think you are underestimating the power of planning and intimidation. Assuming the lion is not hungry, 3-4 people would be enough to cause it to flee. If there is a large enough area such that the lion never feels cornered it would just keep fleeing.

Similar to a bear, if the animal is not hungry one person can scare it off if you just make noise and look big.

The goal here though would to simply walk or jog after it till the animal is completely exhausted. At that point killing the lion would be relatively easy. This is a same way ancient humans hunted animals.

being shot would frighten and infuriate it, prompting it's primal defense mechanism which is aggression.

also note, none of those shots landed. if it did, then i'm sure it wouldn't have been jumping with such a spring in its step

I have three years of experience watching mma. I think 4 naked guys could kill a lion, but they would need a plan.

Naked guy one go for the omoplata...naked guy two the anaconda choke...naked guy three a kimura and the last naked guy the guillotine choke. However, if the lion taps, then they all have to start from the standing up position and that's not good.

Maybe they could all grab for a leg and pull. My head hurts.

i think i could take down a dozen 9 year olds. it would be close though. i could prob get more with enough room to attack and retreat before they swarmed you

at what point of having a weapon does it change the number drastically? everyone has a wiffle bat, fork, meter stick, baseball bat, shovel, bayonet?
