This Story is Classified as HFY , but what does the Mean?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
This is also a Science Fiction story ,What is Science Fiction?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Science fiction (sometimes shortened to sci-fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction that typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, space exploration, time travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. It has been called the "literature of ideas", and often explores the potential consequences of scientific, social, and technological innovations.
Science fiction, whose roots go back to ancient times, is related to fantasy, horror, and superhero fiction, and contains many subgenres. However its exact definition has long been disputed among authors, critics, and scholars.
Science fiction literature, film, television, and other media have become popular and influential over much of the world. Besides providing entertainment, it can also criticize present-day society, and is often said to inspire a "sense of wonder".

Greentext \tg\ , what does it mean?
-------------
A popular device used for quotation and storytelling.
This began on the *chan imageboards, where quoting text places a Less or Greater than symbol in front of it, turning it green. This effect can also be done manually. Before long, this feature was put to innovative use. When quoting another post, greentext is frequently used for summary, criticism, and ridicule. Its other major use is storytelling, in which a lengthy story is told through fragmentary statements in greentext.
Greentext became highly popular for both of these functions due to its convenience. When quoting a post, it is easier to summarize than to respond in full. When telling a story, stringing together sentence fragments is a grammatically easier alternative to prose composition (it also makes for lighter reading).
This feature has become so widespread that it is sometimes used outside of imageboards (eg CZcams comments).

You know, there's this guy who is missing his legs and does wrestling, and rather than fighting in the special Olympics, he fights the big normal guys, and wins with ease, because not having legs actually makes it REALLY hard to lock him or pin him down. Its gotten to the point where I think he got banned for having an unfair advantage. Well, its like how left handed people have a reputation as good tennis players or boxers, but the thing is, they just have a situational advantage. Most people is right handed, so most athletes are used to their opponents being right handed. A left-handed opponent is used to right handed opponents, but not the other way around, so left handed athletes tend to win a lot, until they get high enough and run into other left handed people and then they average out.
true
same applies for fencing
@@geoshark12 that one hits personal lmao, i was the only saber fencer at my club who was right handed for 8 months. It was WEIRD when that changed.
@@thesocialistsarecoming8565 then there’s those that are ambidextrous
But they would need 2 different swords in that case
I'm right handed, I used to fence but would frequently switch hands as I'd trained as much with my left as my right. Won a lot of fights that way.
Is it the right century to remember that our hands, namely the knuckels probably evolved to ease punching things into submission or death?
And picking things up to beat things even better.
I never actually thought about it but now that you mention it our knuckles are definitely larger than they need to be when compared to the other finger joints, and they can protrude quite a bit more than necessary too. Humans are pretty vicious when you think about it.
Interesting further tidbit - the shape of the skull is evolved to reduce the chance of critical damage from a fist to the face.
I'm not so sure it's a great idea: cutting a knuckle on someone's teeth is apparently a good way to infection. I think I'd prefer a heel-of-hand strike against a hard surface, unless you'd done an ungodly amount of knuckle conditioning and are happy to live with the leathery skin.
Our skulls are evolved to put our eyes in a position that if you bend forward and tilt your head up our spine head and eyes are in a straight line its what makes us apex predators because we can keep our eyes level on land in water or in the sky
When humans are unarmed they ball up the end of their upper appendages to use as blunt weapons. The hard bones in these appendages make them effective weapons. So much so, that with proper training, humans can crush rock. (Human Survival Guide)
Those appendages are the deadliest weapons we have by body count.
@@ejedwards1678 and the spear 3rd by body count
@@ejedwards1678 I don't know about rocks or spears, but the most common murder weapon in the US is "fists and feet."
@@ClokworkGremlin Still does not make them effective weapons. Punching is terrible for you. Tendons run OVER the knuckles, the metacarpals are fragile, hell the hand as a whole is fragile even when balled into a fist. Notice how animals that fight in a particular manner have traits that reduce damage when they do so? Sheep have massively reinforced skulls and neck bones for example. Humans have NONE of that in their hands. Literally none of it. Much better to use knee or elbow as they are far, far less likely to literally break if you strike badly.....
There is a REASON boxers wear gloves ffs.... It is only partially to reduce damage to the opponent, its as much to ensure the boxer does not break his or her hands in a dozen or more places over the course of the bout.
I was hoping that the concept of an internal skeleton would be explained to him but this was still a good story and a good narration.
thank you , glad you enjoyed
You thought I was soft and squishy? SURPRISE, BITCH! SPOOKY SCARY SKELETON COMING IN HOT
when one guy wants a basic fight night, but everyone else want's death
Look out! He's got a pair of nut-crackers and a tub of melted butter!
Silly Zeno Fighters always underestimating human savagery
yarp
Given calcium is technically a metal, the composition of that endoskeleton would play a role too.
Went back for a proper handshake, nice.

Is there a sequel to this one?
Because I really enjoy the idea of some cheating bugger oversized lobster getting the right stuffing beaten out of him! Especially when the human is told that his opponent is a cheater!😈
So did you find a sequel?
69 likes nice
The skull is the exo part of the endoskeleton. Want to hit muscles? Hit muscles, bone? Head or elbow.
No, it is not. Exo means outside of the body. The skull is covered in skin, flesh, and yes even a few muscles. It’s why we can smile, wiggle our ears, move our jaws, etc.
The only part of our skeleton that is normally visible is our teeth. 🦷😁
When the guy came for a boxing match and ended up in a fight club because he didn't understand the language
Oh my god that accent was so fun to listen to
glad you enjoyed
Sounds Irish
I think it's something with my phone's speakers, but it's like the perfect frequency to where it somehow makes it inexplicably hard to understand at times. Maybe it's the cadence? Idk.
That was a great gross fight. I love that the announcer/ referee is a frinkin' alien spider😮
I wonder if in the end the human was a bit lacerated as well hitting a large bug covered in spikey chitin has to be hell on the knuckles
Probably very much lacerated
Knuckles are a weird construct, they are a slight V to give a channel for the finger ligaments to slide forward and back. If they are damaged, the fingers can not be controlled. In rhumatoid arthritis they disintegrate and slide off the top of the fingers, causing the classic claw hand shape.
The accents were a bit much for me, but otherwise you did a wonderful job as a narrator. What a great story! 😁
glad you enjoyed
For the algorithm!, when I tried to post I got "Comment failed to post." .. apparently the algorithm doesnt like me
The algorithm was just testing your loyalty
March for the algorithm

Poor insect! Humans cheat you know. Underneath all that squishy flesh.. there is solid stone. Every time he punched you, he was hitting you with a rock.
humans are really, REALLY good users of rocks
@@J0hnB09 Yeah apparently human bone is stronger than steel when you base it on weight which is really cool! But once you go by the volume and density then steel wins.
Fighter that apologized FTA!!
FTA!!
And I thought I was a good narrator you sir are fantastic
Thank you for the kind words glad you are enjoying the content
@@AgroSquerril but of course you seem to have a great enjoyment for your work as so it's not only contagious but welcome. Have a good day and keep up your great work
This content is gold!
Glad you enjoy
You were first.
Top tier narration dude, love the content and hope for more
glad you are enjoying the content
For the algorithm & that one dude who just wanted a match!

indeed
Human respected.
Good story.
Question, you're large enough to be monetized. Do you give a commission to the authors?
Also this is basically crab vs octopus.
I am monetized , no i don't. Most authors are happy that people enjoy the work and that the money I earn on a video pays for a narration and introducing new people to their work. Some have asked that if a video does well enough that I donate to charity which i Intend to do. As the channel grows it may change in the future
@@AgroSquerril Sounds good!
@@shadowhenge7118 Well.......... the xeno was expecting an octopus.
Click, chik rk (Galactic basic for good video)
thank you , glad you enjoyed
Uh, no, you threatened this man's sheep with something, frankly, unspeakable.
I'm not sure how to feel about this. I don't like boxing. But scifi almost makes it OK.
Algorithm appeasement added.
A great story.
That's what we call an attitude adjustment.

Why is the coach Scottish?
ah good question , I will ask management
Why not.
He has a degree in spacecraft engineering.
The cheater champion is in for a rude awakening.
i have to watch this with subtitles and for some reason the subtitles are for adds, even after refreshing the video and setting it to english its constantly going on with the scripts of adds
I was wondering what was going on hahaha. Same thing
To please the algorithm
Anticipating a nice dose of schadenfreude there 🤣
Please, what are s a metalgent, if that's the spelling?

Lol, any human sized creature encased in chitin would easily defeat a human in unarmed combat. Arthropods are easily stronger than vertebrates of similar size. Being hit by one would be like being hit by a guy in plate armour, probably spiked at that. If he was fast AND lucky, an all-out attack on the thing's mandibles, eyes, and antennae might cripple it, but it would be very unlikely he'd get the chance.
A human sized creature encased in chitin could not move or survive in earth gravity
Ergo it would be far weaker in it’s normal gravity than humans
@@robertbemis9800 How is that relevant? Gravity was never mentioned in the story.
@@andrewstrongman305 how often do you reverence gravity in your home gravity well
The main character is a land walking anthropoid. Unless we are dealing with physics from another universe for its mussels. It would need more oxygen, and lower gravity to move with the power and speed it was in the story
It’s also the reason the largest land crab on earth is only the size of a basketball
Diminishing returns with size, the largest possible arthropods in a 1G field are about 3ft across and the oxygen content of the air would have to be way higher than current earth normal to support one that big.
@@maxmccullough8548 Arthropleura grew to about 2m in length under our 1G. Chitin could certainly support a human-sized animal in 1G, (but that's about it's limit as it's muscles would become too heavy with greater mass to move). The reason arthropods are restricted to their current size is that they never developed any active breathing organs like lungs, hence they require more concentrated oxygen.
