According to PPP the YOLO-est of all the pollsters 56 percent of Americans think a bear would win a fight against a shark, while 44 percent picked the shark. The setting of the fight was not specified, but presumably we are to assume water shallow enough for the bear to stand but deep enough for the shark to swim, otherwise the question would be kind of absurd. Anyway, here is someone who has thought more about this than you have.
How could anyone have an opinion on this without knowing if the fight takes place on land or in the water?
What if the bear had claws that were knives tipped with tiny guns that shot out even tinier knives?
What if the shark were actually being wielded as a club by a megabear?
I’m just saying this stuff can get pretty complex pretty quick.
And the bear has a .45. Shark: dead meat.
Yeah, the Sharks and the Jets had their fights too.
Well yeah.....on land.
Wow!
That New York Magazine is all over the cutting edge of our tumultuous world.
I gots to ge me a perscription to that....
I went with the premise stated in the article which is the only reasonable one to assume - bear wading into shallow water.
What if the shark had all the meta data on the bear’s contacts but the bear had all the shark’s emails
Bears vs Sharks. Do they battle with a football or a puck?
I’m glad the poll people have settled this.
Maybe Man Bear Pig could take the shark down. :-)
Nothing a little JDAM or Zuni couldn’t fix (to music, of course)
Hahahaha...MBP...greatest threat to the earth!
“What if the shark had a frickin laser on top of its head?”
Sorry, we only have sea bass.
Winner get to face a Saltwater Crocodile
“This is why you play for homefield advantage. Clearly, the home team would win this fight.....no way around it.”
Does it answer the question, “ does a shark crap in the woods?”
If Mike Ditka is involved I have to go with
Da Bears!
I can beat a shark on land. I would just walk away. Go grab a margarita and some nachos, watch the hawks and bruins then come back.
methinks the New Yorker has jumped the shark.....
