Why is it that cheetahs can run so fast? How can humans get to be that fast? Cheetah biologist Adrienne Crosier and orthopedic surgeon Dr. Chris Raynor explain why cheetahs are so quick and why humans and limited comparatively.

Adrienne Crosier is a biologist and manager of the cheetah reproductive and research program at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute. SCBI plays a leading role in the Smithsonian’s global efforts to save wildlife species from extinction and train future generations of conservationists.

      Question for your Cheetah human…What would be the purpose of all that upper body musculature if the Cheetah human is running on 2 legs only???…Seems like a lot of added weight to haul around…

      The conclusion and “Cheetah man” image/description is completely false and not accurate.
      Look at the Cheetah, does it look like a roided up lion? Absolutely NOT!
      Sprinters are not bodybuilders, does Usain Bolt look like a bodybuilder? Does Andre De Grasse look like he even lifts weights?
      The point being, being STRONG relative to bodyweight is MUCH more important, after all, bigger muscles just means you’re pushing that much more mass down the track
      The key is to have a well-balanced body with strength in the right areas relative to bodyweight, what good are GIANT Muscles if I cant even squat 2x my bodyweight?

    I’ve got a theory, we can’t run like cheetahs because we’ve only got 2 legs so cheetahs are automatically 2 times faster than humans.

    To make ideal human sprinter, the psoas major and psoas minor should also share the same motor neuron. This would increase power and efficiency, which is important in sprinting.

    Well that human cheetah seem to lack the most important thing: four legs and a spin that fits well with fourlegged running. otherwise that upper body muscle would simply make him fall over like a spinning top.

    Sorry to be boring… But, the force created by the cheetahs 2 rear legs unsurprisingly creates more than double the force generated by one of the human’s legs when it strikes the ground, and likewise with the pulling action of the front legs. Sprinting is all about the force created on impact, and leg cadence somewhat. The human running style would have to evolve so that the upper body is leaning more forward, and an adjusted centre of gravity created, and the ankle joint would need to be fixed in the extended position and not flexing on impact.
    Nerd I know!

    The point being, being STRONG relative to bodyweight is MUCH more important, after all, bigger muscles just means you’re pushing that much more mass down the track

    It might be my imagination but wen i saw this video it for some reason the cheetah muscle reminded me of Bruce lee physique. It makes me wonder if cheetah human physique is not closer to having more bulk but rather tighter leaner muscles?

    Why switch between mph and km/h, that’s weird for comparison. I mean 70 mph is like 112 km/h. 70 to 30 just feels like it’s just double as fast not almost 4 times. Not really a complaint, but it’s a bit weird for context

    Humans are originally long distance runners, We jog after the animals and whilst they’re puffed out and can’t move due to exhaustion and we kill animals. Thats why we can’t run so fast. We aren’t bred to do so.

  202. Stephan Kahng

    January 25, 2021 at 2:56 pm

    The cheetah human shown at the end is overexaggerated, why probably don’t need giant hip, thigh, or upper body muscles, and might not need to have longer legs; we definitely don’t need aerodynamic skulls, but we will need more muscle mass in the hips and thighs and (semi)digitigrade (or at the very least feet that can easily switch to a digitigrade stance and hold it for a long time) that are stronger and have a more simple skeletal and muscular structure.

    you’d also want to change the shape of the hip blade, much more in front and behind, massively lengthen the foot, all the power for that in the upper calf, near the knee easier to move around, and unless it’s going quadroped I don’t see the reason for the huge muscles on the chest and arms

    The ironic thing is a cheetah can’t outrun a human. Only over very short distances. After 30 seconds of running it would be forced to rest and spend 30 mins recovering. An ostrich is the only land creature a human can’t beat over long distances.
