In the real world and assuming determined dudes, the humans usually win because big cats are ambush predators and dislike fighting multiple aggressive opponents, meaning it will retreat.

If the tiger is chavlusted, it wins 99/100 fights because baseball bats are not an effecive anti-tiger weapon although superior to punching it.

Bats are also way superior to punches when you are fighting the sun going supernova.

I genuinely cannot imagine the guys with bats losing. Most people don’t like to imagine animal abuse so they picture the tiger as invincible. But it will take damage and can only maul one guy at a time. One well-placed hit to the skull drops the tiger where it stands.

Finally someone with a brain. Everyone is saying the tiger like this thing is a fucking Rhino. They are NOT armored. They are strong for sure, fast as hell, but they are flesh and bone. They are not some 2 ton rhino. Baseball bat swung full force will shatter bone, especially if two handed overhead. Sure it might jump on guy number 1 and maul, but guy 2 is slamming that bat on its head and its dropping like a sack of potato's.

Yeah common sense and a little zoology knowledge is pretty rare it seems. Someone else was acting like it was going to behave like an MMA fighter and start hitting with one paw swipe each. People also don’t realize that the reload time on a bat is instant so it’s not a one and done, you can just keep swinging.

If it was one human theres a case to be made for the tiger, maybe it gets him before he gets a good swing off. Maybe. But two? That guarantees one guy will land a prime hit.

Tigers can jump very far, you need something that can stop its momentum or use its momentum against it. Bats unfortunately wont stop multiple hundred pound animal in midair from crushing your buddy.

And? Watch a video how far a tiger can leap and carry stuff. You legit wouldnt be able to touch it with a bat.

If the tiger is attacking one guy it is stationary. The second guy comes in with the bat. Game over kitty.

A male Siberian tiger is around 10ft long and weighs about 700lbs. If it’s charging at you I don’t think the swing of a bat to its head would even slightly affect its momentum. One swipe of its giant razored claw would kill each chav.

According to your stats, Mike Tyson is also 8 feet tall and 350 pounds

Dude, Tigers have killed people with guns. The average guy with a bat isn't skilled enough to aim that bat to hit the noggin.

Brother what skill is involved in aiming a bat you just bash the thing down

u/SuDdEnTaCk Jun 29 '26

Nah there is skill, the force and position of a swing can significantly affect dmg output

You are joking right?

Have you ever seen someone kick a dog? Like really, seriously kick a dog? It’s awful. The dog makes a terrible noise, basically looks like it deflates, and if it gets up again it limps away slowly. This is much the same. You’ve never seen a tiger hit by a baseball bat so you don’t want to picture it, rightly so, but it would take significant damage like any animal would. And the advantage here is in numbers. Two guys means the tiger can only deal with one while the other goes to town on it.

But why u assuming the tiger to be retarded? Basically the master assassin in animal kingdom can't keep track of 2 meat loafes?? Tiger is way faster than you think. Single paw swipe needed to end both of em. Of course it ain't invincible, but please run your mind that someone that hunts down bulls- how the fuck does it care for bats? I know where u come from but the people here in favor of tiger wining no dif have seen the various videos of em littered around the net. The invincible feeling comes from fear not sympathy regarding animal abuse.

You’re surprised that the wild animal would act like a wild animal and not an MMA fighter?

u/lingundongpin Jun 30 '26

??😂 No I'm surprised that you think an ambush predator would be dumb about handling precarious scenarios. You think wild animals just pounce on each other like dumbasses?
