Meh. Physics beats him any day. I can say this confidently. *puts on lipstick, smacks lips, adjusts boobs, reaches for sonic screwdriver.*

But I have as of yet not heard anything bad about Alan Ritchson.
Like, in the first series, where he rescues that dog. Obviously that was nice, and obviously the owner was an asshole, but Reacher machos at the guy until he starts something, and then Reacher finishes it. Either punch the guy for maltreating the dog and you're furious about that, or just help the dog. Don't help the dog in a way that is designed to piss off the abusive owner so you can be a badass while looking superficially innocent.
Same in the movie, where Tom Cruise says things like 'Remember, you wanted this' about violent situations that he himself fostered. He just escalates, all the time.
He's no Henry Cavill <swoons>. Or Raylon Givens <double swoon>.
I do like how second season of Reacher is having his nomad lifestyle be a lot more negative and lonely than it came off in season 1.

Because he also does a lot of things that avoid violence later on, talks about the wrongness of what he did, and honestly most of the people around him talk about he's a shitty person.
with Ritchson it's like, am I really supposed to believe that four doughy teenagers thought they had a chance against this guy?
that's why we call it the struggle, you're supposed to sweat

I think of the Reacher series like I think of Commando.
They happen in a separate universe. The Swoliverse.
Did anyone else picture the iconic big bicep handshake from "Predator" when they read this? Or was it just me? haha

And that's ignoring dudes who just took steroids.

I don't know about these four specifically since I have not seen the show, but I have seen a lot of dumb teenagers who acted like thought they could take on the Terminator in a fight. Put them in group of 4? They think they could take on the Hulk, no problem.
Considering this survey where 8% of dudes thought they could beat a lion unarmed, I don't disagree with you.
Swans, but it's a myth. They can not remotely break your arm.
No, they have to be close up
I'm going to be charitable and say that most of those people don't legitimately believe they would win the fight, but can't mentally or emotionally deal with a scenario that has no ending where they live so they have to believe they can come out of it the winner somehow. If that's the case, I can sympathize.
People have survived falling out of airplanes without parachutes, too.
There's a trick against crocodiles. It's impossible to hold their mouths open, but you can hold them closed. Though they will also try to roll and crush you with weight
Swans (and geese) are more into the bruising and ripping of flesh.
OK, so you've got a crocodile with its mouth clamped closed: now what? Wait until it dies from hunger a year later?
No, of course not. That's ridiculous. Once you've clamped its mouth, then you eat the crocodile.
