    Default Weakest animal to solo a peak human

    What do you think would be the weakest animal or beast that can defeat an unarmed peak human in combat? No poisons, weapons, or supernatural powers please.

    Scenario #1- Realistic physics

    Scenario #2- Comic book physics with a comic style peak human

    When we're talking 'realistic', what do you mean by 'peak human'?

    Basically a human being who is as strong, fast, durable, and skilled as a real life human can possibly be.

    A slightly to significantly weaker human that gets lucky? I mean, a relatively light hit to the chest can actually stop your heart it it hits at the correct split second.

    There was a Knights of the Dinner Table comic where a squirrel kicked butt on everyone. It was rather humourous.
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    Even if it were, I don't see it doing much damage all on its lonesome.

    Badly. Wolves are dangerous because they travel in packs and use teamwork, not because they're great warriors one on one.

    Well, Doom killed a lion with his bare hands and he's not peak human. So, maybe one of the larger species of bear?

    Just going to note that we kind of suck as well, without weapons.

    Peak humans also kind of suck, if they're not in comic books. They get cut as easily as anyone else, they are not necessarily trained to fight animals (who is?), and don't possess any natural weaponry.
