Amazing!

But I think a cheetah has a top speed of 60km/h and can only maintain this for less than 45secs after which it starts to 'overheat'. If it doesn't stop it would die of heat stroke. So if @washiku can catch up with it.

in a chase that is for distances that are over 10km in a Savannah my bet is that @Washiku or @MacDoba or any other runner who did 21km juzi will catch a cheetah in hot weather.
this is how we beat em ungulates!!p
chasing them down for 8 hours!
Of course we cannot compete with the Ostrich (it runs like us but faster over long distances)

Did you mention @McDoba? And his beerbelly? d'oh! d'oh!


Shame on you Shame on you Shame on you Hio beer belly uliona lini/waphi????

anyone who can run 21km has nothing but admiration from me!



Four years running I do it no in sub 2hrs 25mins, the dude is just trying to get at me for nothing.......the religious fundamentalists can be a funny lot!!&!

if i am able to do next year in 2hrs 25 mins I will be a very happy man. from one runner to another - learn to accept complements from people who know the pain of persistent running.


Applause Applause Applause I bow with respect, you don't have to be a fundamentalist to make it!!!!

@ masukuma...It seems you are really believing the contents of the clip fully?? Those three bushmen are just actors picked from the mainstream of the society...much of what they want us to believe has no bearing whatsoever on the way they live...

To start with, these bushmen/san/khoisan/basarwa/bakgalagadi in their natural habitat do not wear shoes or any type of clothing and they are the most difficult people to spot or locate as they live in deep kgalagadi (kalahari) in very small family units...

Secondly, they don't use any plastics bottles for their water needs...they use very queer methods to obtain drinking water to quench their thirst....

Of course its a documented fact that Persistence hunting exists and existed, the video simply dramatizes this. but there is a fallacy in your statement "in their natural habitat do not wear shoes or any type of clothing and they are the most difficult people to spot" - they are people and people change! there is an assumption that the KhoiSan's have not changed their ways for 40k years - they like the Maasai have changed some aspects of their culture and kept others.


About hunting we are in agreement, but the clip has a lot of lies about the bushmen...the bushmen do not use spears either in their hunt.

There is no fallacy in my statement about their natural habitat. You see @ masukuma bushmen inhabit mostly Botswana (which is generally 95% kalahari desert)and very few in eastern part of Namibia and north eastern part of South Africa...

I will only talk about the ones I know in Botswana...for any ordinary tourist it is extremely difficult to see bushmen (in fact you do not see them at all) because they reside in areas deep in the bush where there is no good developed road infrastructure.

There has been a very big problem between the government of republic of Botswana and the basarwa themselves as the government attempts to bring them into the main stream of the society so that she could further her mineral exploration and mining activities...the result...they cannot handle the civilised life and eventually they go back to the bush.

For those finite ones who have been painfully absorbed the authorities had to give them something better to do, like involving them in construction of buildings and roads in the neighbourhood sites and teaching them the use of physical money and its value.





Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
