You will never be as badass as these guys

Welcome to persistence hunting.

Basically the idea is you chase after a big animal in 100+ degree heat and it eventually passes out from heat exhaustion. Because we are relatively hairless and have the ability to sweat much more than any other animal we are able to run over longer distances at higher temperatures. By walking on two feet you are slower than on 4, but you use less energy allowing you to run for longer distances.

I am very impressed. There is a display of not only true endurance, but ultimate respect and gratitude for the fortunes that they are able to enjoy as superior hunters.

 

Great video. Thank you for posting. I enjoy learning new things like this. :thumbup:
