Probably due to all the mercury and shit he was playing with as an alchemist

It's also got some trick jaws, it's not 100% from size alone. Like dunkleosteus, which had a novel jaw that amplified the force.

We also have better full-light vision than a lot of animals, even the ones with good dark vision.

It’s well understood and documented that humans are very OP.

All this picture says is basically "the bigger the jaw, the more biting force". And then it compares animals with bigger jaws than humans

Also like, we aren't cursed to a life of suffering and early death if something takes a bite out of our leg, we can patch it up and get assistance from those around us to still live a good life.

Don’t forget about the human ability to literally chase an animal until it collapses with exhaustion. Humans are literally the monster from It Follows.

The closing force is significantly higher than its opening force IIRC. If you can close its mouth without getting bitten it's screwed.

Just remember these guys can grip an animal the size of a horse with their jaws, overpower it, drag it to the water and rip it apart.

Salt water Crocs are not tiny. Some alligators are on the smallish side comparatively, but there are big gators out there too.

I bet this is peak force is measured at the base of the jaw, meaning the teeth at the tip would exert significantly lower force. So it might be possible to escape a small alligator, I'm not sure.

Yeah but do you have the bite force to bite through all 700 at once?

Fun fact, the (rough) conversion efficiency of calories to mechanical joules in the human body (separate from the mechanical to electrical you're referring to) is about 25%

but this is about the same factor as going from calories to joules! So, for a human to put out 13.5 kJ of energy would require about 13.5 food calories (kilocalories).

Never skip jaw day.

alternatively it looks like someone just bit him haha

I'm no BiteForceologist but I was assume they compare muscle size, muscle attachment points, and mechanical advantage of extant creatures and then apply that data to fossils. So not 100% accurate, but not just guessing randomly.

We are omnivores and do a lot of chewing. Dogs don't really chew, just rip.

Some great apes that have more raw plants in their diet even have a bony ridge on their skull that the jaw muscles attach to.

Our jaws actually have great leverage, our molars are very close to where the jaw muscle attaches.
