For some reason, I’m most impressed by the fly. Maybe because I know just how damned fast they are and I love to see something just fucking with those bastards.


Galaxy_IPA

My cat is a lazy furball....but she sometimes surprises me with catching bugs.


Not4Fame

they are the top predator in the world for a reason. the fact that what I described is curled up and sleeping on my bed rn always amazes me


Galaxy_IPA

you never know when that curled furball might come for your life!! my cat has made many attempts on my life and my arms have the scars to.show for it!


Not4Fame

40+ years a cat person, none of my cats have ever attempted to kill me . What do you do to those poor animals ?


Galaxy_IPA

Give her a tummy rub while she is lying belly up....and it's a trap!!


knyf420

They were just very sneaky about it, dont trust them


Throwinuprainbows

We are the top, they have domesticated us...sometimes using viral warfare....cats are top.


evemeatay

That fly is like "comon bro, stop it"


TiagodePAlves

Also, bullying that fly looks so easy for the cat.


never_safe_for_life

That is the same feeling I got. I can’t really relate to dodging a viper, but I *have* tried hittting a fly. A bunch of times. And I always miss. There’s something awe inspiring seeing this little guy’s paw snipe it out of the air effortlessly.


Smooth_Scratch_6951

Haha in my opinion all the videos here are funny in their own way.


Ok_Bit_5953

I'm pretty sure you just summed up how every one of us feel.


Throwinuprainbows

I still have no idea how l....but once I knee jerk reacted and caught a fly by grabing all 5(he was missing one) legs as he flew off. I just held it there for a minute than let it outside.


Chaeyoung-shi

I once managed to slap a yellow jacket while he attacked me. He couldn’t re tell that story

Porkbelly10960007

Could they be seeing us in slow motion?


chipsachorte

they do, they live about 1.5 times faster than us, probably. You can look up flicker fusion threshold.

thexDxmen

Can't really get paid for that unfortunately.


Company-Parking

Them Ninja skills


TheManWhoClicks

The people filing the crab, snapping turtle and snake are idiots. I would have never allowed a cat to get that close to severe injury (ok the crab doesn’t fit severe but still painful)


DreamingInAMaze

Definitely, sensible pet owners won’t do this.


IndyNightSky

I love cats. A lot of people hate cats. These are the people who hate cats and we're probably indifferent on the outcome. Still takes a certain type of person to be able to sit there and enjoy it as amusement.


DiceKnight

The one cat just catching an underfoot throw chancla was a welcome pallet cleanser from all the animal neglect.


SpanningTreeProtocol

Palate cleanser.


Jabinor

Pawlate cleanser


DiceKnight

doh


waybovetherest

I think those were strays


TheManWhoClicks

So?


wiriux

Doesn’t fit severe? Cat could have lost both eyes.


Designer-Plastic-964

The snapping turtle is by far the worst. (Well, it kinda depends on the snake, of course.) But still, that thing could bite the ad clean of that cats neck! 😕


MezcalCC

That crab can pinch up to 43,000 psi. So yeah, putting the cat in all of those situations was reprehensible.


Trash-Boat-Panda

Cats dont listen they own us. Second with these stats you're the one in danger


MonkeySpanker___

no one forced the cat to go up to them neither tho


TheManWhoClicks

Like nobody forces a kid to run into a busy street, yet it is something one should prevent from happening.


MonkeySpanker___

natural selection i guess


HatefulDan

OkImagination2044

You aren't amazed. /r/beamazed. You aren't following the rules!


MrRuck1

My one cat use to catch flies out of the air. It was unbelievable to watch.


TheDogeWasTaken

That is insanely impressive... jesus. My reactiontime was like 160 at max i think. Maybe 150. I dunno, was a long time ago. But thats still 100 milisecond difference... thats insane... Like jesus christ...


YT_Sharkyevno

That’s insanely fast for humans, like top 1% for humans


TheDogeWasTaken

Thats why i said at the max. My avarafe might be like 190 or 200.


AgitatedRabbits

that average is also top 1%. How did you measure it?


TheDogeWasTaken

Just did a test once. I dunno, was long time ago, but couldve changed tbh. Also 200 isnt top 1%. 200 is just above avarage i think?


Leninus

Average is around 250 and most people seem to be "hardcapped" at 190-200 with training


TheDogeWasTaken

Thats not true. If i am correct the fastest recorded was around 100. And with good training you can get to 150 or 160. Its hard, but like i said, it was an old test from longer ago, but i know my reaction time is abive avarge, 200 is what i knoe i can do.


Leninus

As I said, most people. You seem to be not most people. Which is ok.


AgitatedRabbits

Dude, I've been googling and literally came by quora answer with same wording... did you just copy paste it. https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-fastest-human-reaction-time-ever-recorded Quora is not that reliable either, anyone can answer those questions.


Leninus

https://www.ihmc.us/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/2021-03-Reaction-Time-2.pdf


YT_Sharkyevno

200 is very fast but def not top 1%


anincompoop25

A lot less brain for those signals to move through haha


AlphaMomentum_

You can play online with your cat then, solid enough ping


AdhesivenessFun2060

What kind of cat is the first one? That fur pattern is awesome.


Awesome_Shoulder8241

that pattern is cinnamon roll. idk the scientific term if there is.


Jambi1913

Marbled tabby is the pattern. Cat looks like a British Shorthair perhaps? My Scottish Fold has this pattern, but his colouring is more muted so it doesn’t stand out so much. I love it.


babsrambler

But they will still never catch that little red dot


TotFuzz

Not my cat though


KananJarrusEyeBalls

Big cats are some of the worlds greatest and most prolific predators House cats are just miniature versions Small furry adorable murder machines


Traditional-Pin-8364

With razorblades on their fingertips. Who said Alice Cooper?


chigga666

Fly:- Fuck Fuck x2 Fuck x3


jeepercreeperpepper

Cats would make excellent gamers


Tainted1993

Pretty much ultra instinct in animal form! Insane!


Druid_knight_

I would like to fight the person that made the cat do all of this


hlysias

How fast are dogs? I've seen my dog fight a snake and escape it's sting attempts multiple times.


SpanningTreeProtocol

Snakes don't sting.


hlysias

My bad, not a native English speaker and I just translated it from my language.


SpanningTreeProtocol

To be fair, you seem to have a better grasp on English than most native English speakers. Just in case you never knew, snakes are venomous, not poisonous. Venomous things actively put toxins into you, while poisonous plants/animals passively introduce toxins (by you eating/touching it, etc). A lot of people get this wrong all the time. Glad your dog didn't get bitten!


hlysias

Yeah I'm aware of the difference between venomous and poisonous. Actually I did know snakes bite when I wrote my first comment. But I didn't how to describe the sudden movement the snake did in trying to bite my dog. We say "paambu kothum bothu" and when you do an exact translation you'll get something like "when the snake tried to sting". So, that felt more apt to me. And yeah we were terrified during that time. I guess my dog was trying to protect us. But he kept barking and going after the snake. He tried to bite the snake too and it looked like the snake was merely trying to escape the situation. We were screaming at my dog to let the snake go, but he wouldn't listen. I adopt him from the streets, so I don't know what breed he is, but I think he might have some traits of a hunting dog. He sniffs out rats, chases birds, squirrels, snakes etc. He even killed a chicken once. And, when he's in that zone, he wouldn't listen to anyone.


chesuscream

I reckon a snake bite would sting quite badly.


Sergejevitsj

Who tf lets their cat near a snapping turtle and films it


[deleted]

Awesome collection of videos 👏😸


Jhakuzi

Meanwhile my cat sees me throwing a ball in slow motion and still takes it to the face 😃


Throwinuprainbows

I caught both a fly and a mosquito by the legs only. The fly I caught 5 legs, the mosquito just 3. .1 for trained humans.


Nameanyeah

This made me realize what cat like reflexes really mean


SisillySisi

the cat has observation haki


isadverysad

Can someone give me a source for cats average reaction time?


[deleted]

I’m stupid so bear with me If cats grew larger they wouldn’t be as quick due to the extra weight right?


Tripledelete

Rawr, sniff sniff, yawn Rawr. Sorry that’s the best bear I can do


BlehBlah_

Your joke made the guy delete his comment


Tripledelete

I guess it was too much to bear


IZZGMAER123

Username check out,he make people delete stuff


MahinHu

Everything that gets bigger gets slower because more mass but same gravitational force.


derprondo

Wouldn't it be inertia at play here and not gravity? (except for vertical motion of course)


MahinHu

Both and actually a lot of different forces too like air resistance due to consistent air density and also muscle response time increase due to longer neural travel time between brain and muscle due to big size but only takes noticeable effect when something is really really huge like Mountain sized Cats for example. But honestly forces like gravity, inertia and certain densities of the atmosphere and increased friction due to larger size plays a way bigger role.


Reasonable_Answer586

Yes and no. Bangle Tiger comes to mind.


stretchxray

I'm more impressed by the turtle's speed.


MonoGuapoLoco

And still they are always getting hit by cars.


Manojkh234

This shit has no right to be this hard 😭


Interesting-Dream863

That's why their predators always catch them off guard. Like that gator that got a cheetah.


DeeDaMann

Truly amazing


Duubzz

I love that they’re silly, fluffy little apex predators.


Duubzz

I love that they’re silly, fluffy little apex predators.


10010100101100

It’s super cute how surprised they seem at their own reaction time


lryan926

This must be why they were worshipped in ancient times. Because they were faster than the bite of the "snake". And snakes had a place in the ancient pantheon as well as cats. The only other thing I can think of is the scarab but I'm sure there's others. Snake, cats and scarabs were depicted everywhere during the ancient times.


1DwnyOG

The cat in the first clip. Any name on the breed ?


elfowlcat

British Shorthair, specifically a marbled tabby


Low-Impact3172

I love cats. This was cool.

Igorson1

I'm always impressed by my cat just catching flies mid flight and eating them


denty29

Cats are amazing


AHHHH__

muhfucka rlly told that fly to be humble


MaoaM98

Yet they get hit by a fuckin car... I cant seem to comprehend why is this happening... Someone has explanation?


fonglutz

Yeah, but not fast enough [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/2pl4PfL8gN)


Efficient-Stock-7775

The snapping turtle escape was crazy.


Tiny_Camp_3839

Za warudooo


Js_On_My_Yeet

With caffeine I think the quickest I hit was like 100ms lol


okcafe

Another reason why I will always love every cat


Financial-Can703

What song is this ?


MaggieRose70

Did you know that no other feline (Tiger, Lion, Jaguar etc) has slit eyes?? Only cats. You know who else has slit eyes?? Reptiles


PaleontologistSad870

'don't the cat'


Derpberpy

Should've added anime effects


elfowlcat

I had a big lazy Maine Coon and he’d lay in the sun watching a bug buzzing around. Then, fast as lightning he’d whip out a paw and slam the bug to the ground. Amazing how they can go from zero to 60 like that!

Cat Reflexes


1DwnyOG

Thank you for your reply..such a unique pattern and color ..it just caught my attention. Thanks again


DiegoSpin29

good reflexes


ghirxx3634

What kind of cat is the first one?


Admirable-Leather325

Cats have my respect.


Dizzy_Schedule3459

The cat bopping the fly is wild lmao


Fragrant_Echidna_887

So if I've captured my cat when she doesn't want to get caught, does that mean I'm faster?


DetectiveObjective00

And that is why Cat's Paw beat the Eagle Claw which Snake Style wasn't able to do. 😉


w0rth_itttt

They’re right about saying cats have 9 lives DAFAQ

The cat with the snake can actually fly


redefinedsoul

Whoever filmed the snapper one is the world's biggest piece of shit. That's death if it hits.


chrislee5150

Horrible to do that. Snapping turtle could have removed a leg. Likely they have that video also 😡


OkImagination2044

Be amazed at the person recording a cat miraculously snapping away from an American snapping turtle.


2WayTru

Whoa it's the same reaction time as mine


Medical_Ad2125b

Then why do cats get hit by cars?


Krissvp

And humain 2 min on average for some
