died as he lived (believing he could fight a goose)

In terms of actual goose encounters, like most wild animals they do not actually want to be in a fight so a lot of what they do is posturing. So as long as you don't back down, don't break eye contact, and don't flee the goose is going to realize that "it is much smaller than you" and back down.

"died fighting a goose" is really all you need

He got goosed. RIP

What about if it's to a Fatality by a goose?

I think "mortal combat" is the clear indicator. While I'm absolutely not going to choose to fight a goose, and would not come out uninjured, I think if one of the two of us need to die it's going to be the goose.

The only thing saving a goose is the sort of vague sense of guilt a civilized human feels from killing an animal. As Conan the barbarian shows, this can be overcome

Nah, but you can fight Geese in Fatal Fury.

geese aren't able to handle the arcade machine controls, and they don't know any of the combos. it's trivial to defeat them

in general humans win any fight against something they can yeet trunchbull hammer throw style imo

That said if you get the drop on one maybe? There is the infamous goose wrangler which my dad once watched jump out of a truck, sprint over, break ones neck like a videogame stealth finisher, and leave with it presumably to cook it. Regina is a strange place.

depends on weapons loadout

I had a friend in college who believed, with a strength of conviction as admirable as it was foolish, that he could take an ostrich barehanded in a one-on-one fight. I was very glad we lived on the other side of the world from them because lol no he couldn't.

Even if it's like 90:10, I still think 1/10 average 40 year old men could get killed by a goose in combat.

A goose has no thumbs and thus cannot wield a katana.

Hell naw geese are scary

50/50 shot, whoever gets at the neck first.

yeah those wings are *strong*

Of course he can. A goose can't even hold a gamepad! (sorry)

Mortal Combat? yes. Mortal Kombat? no.

Just belly flop onto it, it's gonna work out fine

In mortal combat? Maybe. In Mortal Kombat? Not a chance.
