Gym's a pretty big space, and your faster than them so you can pretty much hit and move back for a while. You could rip their throats at with some krav maga, or do groin strikes or eye gouging at minimal effort. Strike their noses with your palm, all illegal MMA moves to minimize energy lost. Currently, I'd say at least 40. If I learned how to break faces with some Krav Maga or whatever, then easily over 100. They teach you how to fight 3 grow fighters who know what theyre doing at once, so to kids that equates to hundreds, even if fearless.

Say 200-300? Maybe more.

Are you aware of what size 300 of ANYTHING is? Even if they just sat there, you'd get tired just from punching them before you could take out 300. No way.

B: There was an entire PSA thread yesterday about how that line's not funny anymore
C: Fuck you.

I was just kidding around. Also I read your paste with "you" and not "they". Also, I am stupid.

Five year olds are no more than 3 feet tall. That's perfect range for just giving them a mouthful of my toes. I think in the first 15 minutes I could take out AT LEAST 100.

Consider that you could knock out/kill your average 5 year old with not even half of your punching power it really could go on as long as you had energy to fight.

Eventually the bodies would pile up around you though and you would have to stay on the move.

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Then after that you'd go fight bears with your .45 ACP

I could take 50 at least, even maybe without the weapon idea I could probably take 50. I box so I assume my fists are fairly strong, one punch from me I would think would knock one out eaisly. I would just be throwing haymakers....this is sick :p

Grab the smallest one , still bigger than a bat and much more heavy.

Clearly those of you saying you could take down 20 of them have not been around a bunch of toddlers or 5 year olds on a sugar high.

I could take down 2 maybe 3, then I would have to run.

Tough one. One good kick or punch in the cash and prizes and you're in trouble. They're right at that level too. Probably at least 40. I think you'd be tired by that point.

If they were extremely barbaric, i.e. biters and scratchers, then I wouldn't be able to take very many. They would just become a mob of biting and scratching death.

I would just claim to be a priest looking for a 'good' altarboy.

I shouldn't have to fight any and the numbers could be infinite.

This very thing happened to me last year. I just started stomping on all the kids and using them as weapons. Swinging them around, throwing them. It was a bloodbath. Someone called the cops. I got the hell out of Toys-R-Us.

Better question would have been:

How many 5 year old zombies could you fight and win ??

Ohhhh, the plot thickens !!! One bite ... and you are toast !!

If like the OP said, they do not fear pain nor death, then I think even 10 can take a grown man down easily. Since we're trying to see what's the largest number of 5-year-olds you can defeat, stamina and endurance are definitely important. So I would be shameless and run to the corner, beats down whoever that comes at me, and use their dead bodies as obstacles so the rate at which they come becomes slower. Eventually, there will be so many dead bodies piled on the ground that only a few can get to me at once.

I would still eventually get too tired to do anything, but I think that's the optimal strategy if we're trying to kill the highest number of 5-year-olds.

I don't know if any of you are thinking this through. You have to consider how to kill them. Punching them really hard in the face is going to be hell on your hands after the 10th kill or even before if you fracture your hand on one of their faces. You would have to up end some of them and smash their heads on the floor, like fish. You could then use some of bodies as a bludgeoning weapon, changing it every so often for a fresher 'weapon'.

I think with this technique you could do 40-50 little gits before you start getting tired and as discussed there is always the punch or bite to the twig and berries to worry about. That's just going to take you out - no question.
