Ya, it's been done before, but now we have proof and can end the argument with cold hard nubmers

I could take 24.

I would be doing just enough to win, but I'm not opposed to throwing one into wave of attackers as a defense.

mine said 23, but I'm very doubtful of that since I only have one good leg and one good arm.

Does being run over by a car count as yes for this question? "Have you ever been trampled? (by a horse, at a rock concert, etc)"

31. But I would feel that fighting them is immoral. If I change my mind on that question, I'll take 36 lol

Only Adam can come up with posts like these.

24 for me!!! I would kick their ass back to kindergarten and certainly wouldn't have a problem throwing one of them as a shield.

Punk ass kids!!!!!
Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

I've definitely thrown people smaller than me into other people smaller than me in battle royal wresting style matches. For some reason I find the thought of throwing one 5 yr old into 5, 5 yr olds charging me amusing.

Where's TJ and DaGoat on this? I feel like TJ could fight at least 50 because he would eat 10 of them before it even started being a real battle.

It said I could take down 20 too.

That's way off.

My average is in the upper 40's.

I got the lowest: 17.

I chose "I dont know" the kick thing.. How high is 3 feet? Is it as easy as it sounds - average footprint x 3?

pffft 33, i was expecting more... yes somehow i think the reality is depending on the kids, when i was 5 me and my friends used to go throw stones at the hookers that worked in the local brothel, but these new ones i think i can take a few more than 33, i can imagine lots of crying and running... i think youd need to seal them in so they cant escape.. lol this is so sick i love it

Lol at thinking any martial art/fighting skill would come in handy.

What you need is size, strength, endurance, and no unusual lacks in mobility. I'm lacking in endurance, and can probably only take 100 five year olds. When I get back into lifting that'll go up to about 200. But those estimates could be way low. Nobody seems to acknowledge that the kids have a huge spacial disadvantage.

The real question is: Bob Sanders vs Bengal Tiger???

Come to think of it, the biggest drawback by far would be bruising and breaking our knuckles, kneecaps, elbows, etc. With steel knuckles, somebody like Fedor Emelianenko could probably kill like 2000 five year olds.

i'm fat old and short

rigged! it didn't ask if i had kids and practiced on them
i would have got over 30
i crush 5 year olds

During the fight, would you feel morally comfortable picking up a child and using him/her as a weapon to throw at other children?
No
Depends on if he/she attacked me first
Yes, I'll do whatever it takes to win

stupid question. obviously no PRO Wrestling(watching) experience by the writers
my 14 month year old makes a great weapon against my 3 year old

I have a black belt and I'm fairly large. I think the age came into question (43) and maybe my lack of trample experience. But come on, being a bouncer for 6 years, in my twenty's and the fact that I would use kids as weapons and shields should account for more, not to mention my lack of morality and willingness to bite.
