so what about bruce lee vs. the 5 year olds?

I'm saying he could take ALL of them

Wrong. Bruce probably couldn't take 2x the ammount of kids we could

I'd be willing to put down a jackson that he could. Too bad no way to test it (poll?).

This thread is one of the best reasons I can think of for the existence of the internet. Good work all.

Me VS 1 5 year old I think the 5 year old wins. I am out of shape and drink too much beer!

I think the number is a lot less than people think, and definitely less than 30.

I agree. I heard about an 800 pound tiger getting killed by a pack of 30-40 wild dogs. I think the five year olds would have you on the ground pretty quick and that's the ballgame.

there's NO WAY you can analogize a room full of 5 year-olds to a pack of wild dogs. the dogs will be MUCH BETTER at working as a team, both instinctually and from their life experiences. also, the dogs would know where to attack to take the prey/opponent down and incapacitate it fastest, and they would strike quickly and effectively. one day of training could not bring 5 year-olds up to this level.

We are talking about a huge tiger (even for a tiger 800 pounds is huge) and while five year olds are not wild dogs, you are not a tiger. Wild dogs are small and incredibly weak in comparison to a large tiger. In fact, I think most 2+2ers could take a wild dog in hand to hand combat; we outweigh them by a lot, are stronger, and most of us are smarter.

Yet the difference between an 800 pound tiger and a grown human is greater than a grown human and a 5 year old human. I think most of you are underestimating the problem that being vastly outnumbered poses, regardless of the strength of the individuals.

So given this difference, I think you will get an upper bound on the number of 5 year olds a 2+2er can take by figuring out how many unarmed 2+2ers it would take to kill an 800 pound tiger.

I think this number is somewhere between 15 and 40.

A related question would be, how many ants can you take? The answer is not all of them.

Bruce Lee would shred those little tykes, 100 at least - the man could kill a full grown man with one blow

Also, does the fact that I might have a hard time really hitting a 5 year old matter? Or should I just assume that if the situation were to arise I could go after them full on?

Assume they are rabid.

Psh. These are 5 year olds. This should be reason enough.

Anyone ever play Pikmin (or Pikmin 2)?

On saturday I will be running a chess tournament for about 100 kids. The Kindergarten section will be right near me, and there will probably be about 20-30 5 year olds there. If for some strange reason they all decide to suddenly attack me, we will have our answer.

Poor turnout due to snow, so there were not enough 5 year olds to pose a threat. I will say this though: 5 year olds are really bad at chess.

Lmao. The real question is, how many 5 year olds would it take to beat Kasparov at chess.

I think the real question is how many five year olds it would take to beat a tiger.

after a thousand or so it collapses from exhaustion and ends up choking to death on an arm or leg.

The correct answer is 1252. Do you see why? I'll let others elaborate.

There is only one way to find out! (Find a really big kindergarden)

That depends?

Am I throwing the 5 yr olds at the tiger? Or am I beating the tiger with them by swinging them from their legs like a baseball bat?

Can I freeze the 5 yr olds first to make them sting more?
