If it happens in reality, what are the chances of Song Wu killing a tiger?

"Fighting Tiger with Song Wu" is the most classic scene in Water Margin, which has been talked about by people for thousands of years. However, there is still a huge question. Did Song really kill a big tiger with his bare hands?

There are many heroes who beat tigers in the Water Margin, and there are also Jong Li who specially beat tigers, but in fact there is no record of him beating tigers. In addition, there is "Li Kui jy killed four tigers". Relatively speaking, it is more practical for Li Kui jy to kill four tigers. After all, Li Kui jy used a knife, which was a surprise, and Li Kui jy was full of hatred. It is also possible for a tiger to take the road of jy in Li Kui unguarded. There are also many records about people beating tigers in history, and there are also special "tiger-beating families".

Some families who fight tigers even sum up their experience and pose with knives. When the tiger came at them, the knife went through the tiger's abdomen and cut it open. However, in historical records, no one killed a tiger with his bare hands like Song Wu. Then, in real life, is it possible for someone to kill a tiger with his bare hands like Song Wu? I don't think so. Let's take a look at six places where Song Wu's killing tigers is inconsistent with reality.

First of all, Song Wu can't hide from the tiger. Song Wu and the tiger must be very close. Because after the tiger pounced, it was followed by a lift and a chop. If Song Wu hadn't come near the tiger, it would have been impossible for the tiger to make the last two moves. Tiger's endurance may not be so good, but its instantaneous speed is one of the best in the animal kingdom, which can reach 80 yards. A person can't hide in front of an 80-yard car. The tiger is so close to Song Wu. Song Wuxian hit the tiger with a stick, interrupted the sentry's stick, abandoned it and hid it, and finally escaped. It was a miracle.

Second, the way tigers attack people is so funny. In The Water Margin, it is written that tigers attack people by jumping, lifting and chopping. This series of actions is so funny that I don't know whether tigers are used against people or other animals. If used against other animals, it is estimated that this tiger will starve to death. Because it is still doing every move there, the animals have already escaped. This kind of attack reminds us that the martial arts scenes in the movies are all designed in advance, otherwise everyone will be unhappy. I wonder if the tiger has also discussed with Song Wu to adopt these three postures when attacking Song Wu?

Third, Song Wu can't ride on a tiger. Tigers belong to cats, and their biggest feature is their soft waist. Even if its forelimbs lie prone on the ground, its hind limbs can turn over and kick Song Wu. And it's a waist twist, so it's easy to twist Song Wu off. However, when we watch Song Wu beat the tiger, the tiger's waist is as hard as that of an ox. He only knows how to dig blindly and dig a big hole in the ground without any turning point.

Fourth, the weight of Song Wu won't crush the tiger on the ground. Song Wu was riding on the tiger when he killed it. When Song Wu rides on a tiger, the weight borne by the tiger is the weight of Song Wu. No matter how hard Song Wu tried, he couldn't do it. This is equivalent to a strong man, no matter how strong he is, he can't catch his hair and lift himself up. This is the principle of mechanics. Song Wu can really hold down the tiger, and there is only one possibility, that is, his toes are firmly fastened to the ground. However, Song Wu had no reason to give in. And even if there is something to buckle, can you pull over the powerful strength of the tiger?

Five, Song Wu can't break the tiger's skull. The strongest part of an animal is the skull. The tiger's skull is obviously stronger than all animals. Will the bones on Song Wu's fist be harder than the tiger's skull? We watched the boxing match, and many boxers were hit in the head, bleeding at most on the surface, and it was impossible to lose anything inside the skull (otherwise no one would take part in the boxing match). But Song Wu only used "fifty or sixty punches" to hit the tiger on the head, and the tiger could not move. I don't know how Song Wu killed a tiger with a fist much weaker than its skull.

Sixth, Song Wu's drunkenness can only make his strength smaller. In Water Margin, people repeatedly exaggerate Song Wu until he is drunk. He beat the tiger when he was drunk, and beat Jiang Menshen when he was drunk. When a person is drunk, he may become bolder because of alcohol paralysis. However, it is bragging to say that the strength has become greater. When Song Wu is drunk, his physical strength will definitely decline.

Under such circumstances, it is even more impossible for him to kill the tiger. Therefore, it is obviously impossible for a real person to kill a tiger. Of course, The Water Margin is a literary work. Truth in literary works is obviously different from truth in life. Even if it is impossible for Song Wu to kill a tiger in reality, it does not affect the authenticity of literary works or the "hero" image of Song Wu. (Reference:
