The Revenant (2015) Movie content: The Revenant is based on a true story, the film tells the story of the hunter Hugh Glass (played by Leonardo Dicaprio). After a bloody battle with the Native Americans, Hugh was wounded and ruthlessly abandoned by his comrades in the snowy mountains. From there, Hugh Glass must do everything to survive the brutal cold, predators and war with the tribes in the wilderness. Thanks to his strong will, the hunter miraculously survived, crossing a distance of more than 3,000 miles (4,828 km) alone to return and take revenge on John Fitzgerald (played by Tom Hardy) – who was once the old friend of mine. The scene where Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) is attacked by a mother bear is one of the most spectacular and unrealistic moments in this movie. The bear used its claws and fangs to bite and jump on Hugh. You may not know: The bite force of the gâú is 1,160psi (it’s like a human biting a sausage), their claws are 10-15 cm long and their weight is about 300-400 kg. You see, no one can survive such a war. Another strange point is that the grizzly bear attacks the main character because he is a threat to its cubs. For a mother, nothing is more important than protecting her cubs, but the bear just stops in the middle of a fight, leaving the opponent alive and gone. In another scene, Glass takes off his wet clothes and gets inside the horse’s belly to keep warm. It was a method used by many soldiers during the war, but…the main character spent the whole night inside the horse. Since the snow was everywhere, the temperature was definitely below zero and the horse’s corpse was dead. will freeze after a few hours. If it was in real life, Glass would have no chance of coming back alive the next morning. He could freeze to death in the night. In short, although “The Revenant” is based on a true story, we should only treat it as a feature film. The Leader – Alpha (2018) Movie content Alpha: The Leader is an ambitious action-adventure film from Sony. Not only possessing an overwhelming exterior depicting the majestic ancient world, the work also embraces an extremely touching scenario. The film is the story of the feud between a prehistoric boy (Kodi Smit-McPhee) and a stray wolf. Also from here, human history completely changed. In this movie we enjoy the majestic landscape and beautiful friendship between a boy and a wolf. But there are many mistakes in the movie that are quite obvious. The beginning of the film is the fight of a boy and a buffalo. But you can’t say it’s a war either: The animal just attacked the boy, and if it were in real life, he’d be broken/paralysed. At the end of the attack, the boy falls from a rock but only dislocates his hip. The wolf’s behavior is also quite strange. Its injuries don’t look too serious and a wild animal would rather follow its pack than stay with its enemies – a wolf can still walk on three legs. . Talk a little bit about the appearance of the wolves. We see prehistoric mammoths and saber-toothed tigers in the movies, but the wolves in the movie look like today’s wolves and are no bigger than a normal dog. How can they survive in a world full of giants? The Meg – The Meg (2018) Another recently released movie about a giant shark. It is difficult to judge the appearance and behavior of prehistoric monsters, but all creatures will be subject to certain biological laws. The size of the shark in the film is described as 70 – 75 ft (21.3 – 22.8 m) long. But scientists think its size was 60 ft (18 m). One of the heroic characters in the movie also said that such a shark could easily bite a whale in half. But they do not specify the size of the whale. What do we imagine when we think of whales? It is true that there are really huge whales. But there are whales that are only 13 – 16 ft (about 4 – 5 m) long like the dwarf sperm whale, while the size of a blue whale is 110 ft (33.5 m) – almost twice the size. shark size. As for bite force, sharks can bite a whale in half. But can the shark expand its jaws to that extent? Scientists have proven that megalodon can attack whales, but these whales must not be too large, only 40 – 50 ft (12 – 15 m) long. Sometimes in the movie, the shark attacks only one person (one of the main characters). But scientists don’t think this is characteristic of prehistoric predators. They will not chase 1 or 2 humans, but may swim to attack places with many people (such as the beach). In the beach scene at the end of the movie when the megalodon hunts on the beach, the shark approaches people swimming far from the shore and opens its mouth to swallow them, however it suddenly hears the sound of whales and swims away. . But in reality, it would have easily swallowed the prey that was lying right under its nose and continued to attack other victims.

Lucky cat Maneki-neko – fortune cat in Japan. Fortune cats with raised claws, red ears, often hanging coins or gold bars, are believed by many to have the ability to bring luck and prosperity through the centuries. It is also considered as one of the typical cultural products of the land of the rising sun. Here are some interesting facts about this famous statue. The origin is confused Fortune cats are usually white or made of gold, sold in Asian souvenir shops or Chinatowns around the world. This makes many people think that they are of Chinese origin, but in fact they are of Japanese origin. The lucky cat is called Maneki-neko, which in Japanese means “beckoning cat”. Foreign guests may mistakenly think they are saying goodbye. However, in Japan, unlike Western cultures, the way to greet is with the palm facing forward, the finger pointing down, which means that the fortune cat is “calling customers” into the store. The genius cat travels the world It remains unclear how these iconic statues spread beyond the Japanese islands to become famous throughout Asia and the rest of the world. According to a research project led by Bill Maurer, a professor of Anthropology at the University of California, Irvine, the fortune-telling cat statues date back to the Meiji period (1868-1912). In an effort to polish its image with Westerners, the Meiji Government issued the Public Ethics Ordinance in 1872. Accordingly, charms that were not displayed in prostitution, and fortune cats were prohibited. Use as an alternative decoration. From there, they began to be popular in Asian countries and communities. Then, the explosion of Japanese popular culture during the “Cool Japan” era in the 1980s and 1990s, which coincided with the second wave of Chinese immigration to the US, further helped the cat’s popularity. more worldwide. Appears everywhere in Japan In the land of the rising sun, fortune cats are popular and can be found everywhere. The Manekineko Museum of Art in Okayama displays a collection of more than 700 fortune-telling cat statues from across the ages. Cat statues are also honored every year in September when the Manekineko festival is held in many cities across Japan. In Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture, there is even a street named Manekineko, where dozens of ceramic cat statues are on display. In Tokyo, you can go to Gotokuji Temple or Imado Shrine. And of course, you can see the genius cat at countless shops, restaurants… in the land of the rising sun. The meaning of the cat statue Over the centuries, the genius cat has had many different versions, serving many human purposes. The statue is blue to pray for peace when participating in traffic. Pink to pray for charm, yellow to pray for fortune and prosperity. Cats wag their right paws to “call” money and luck, but cats wag their left paws to “call” friends and customers. Cat ornaments such as ryo (an oval Japanese coin) represent wealth, and bibs or bells show the Japanese people’s affection and care for cats.

Turantula spider The turantula spider is one of the most terrifying animals on the planet, not only the giant spider, but also a predator so stealthily and so skillful that no tiny animal is hovering in its sights. chance of survival. Turantula’s hunting trick is patience. They waited for the unfortunate passerby and grabbed it without warning. Because of their size, which can be up to 12cm long with a stride of more than 70cm, Turantulas can quickly crush prey and crush them under giant pincers. Eventually they bathed the victim’s body in digestive juices and sipped this “delicious” liquid. 9. Mamba Snake Africa’s scariest animal must be the black Mamba, this giant poisonous snake that is present throughout the Southeast of the continent. Its name comes from the black skin inside the mouth, which is only exposed before it attacks. These snakes are usually passive but can be extremely aggressive when threatened. They tend to attack the victim repeatedly, secreting a mixture of neurotoxins and cardiotoxin. The probability of dying after the bite of a black Mamba snake is… 100%. However, this number has decreased thanks to the use of antidotes across the continent. 8. Fish Piranha Out of all the fish, the Piranha is possibly the most notorious. Seeing sharp teeth and strong jaw is enough to cause chills. Piranha is known as a fierce predator, living throughout the fresh water of South America. They feed in the early morning or twilight, hide in the water and wait for their little prey to pass. Then, without warning, they attack and devour their prey with unrivaled ferocity in the freshwater community. In some cases, they will hunt in groups for larger prey, including horses, rodents and even humans. 7. Gray wolf Most of the world’s top predators are completely alone, mainly relying on their courage to take down their prey. But with gray wolves, the success of the hunt depends on the cooperation of his fellow men. The characteristic attack of wolves is the chasing of many animals in the herd, causing prey to flee. A single prey is not only easy to defeat, but also safer than a prey in a resisting position. The dominant male will lead the hunt while its females follow closely behind. Once the prey falls to the ground, the flock will surround it and finish it off. 6. Komodo Dragon The largest of all the varanids, the Komodo dragon is a powerful reptile with a weight of up to about 136kg and a length of more than 3m. This animal ranked sixth in danger due to the speed, strength and stamina to knock down its prey twice its size. It also had a poisonous blow, and any survivors of the Komodo dragon’s attack would soon die from their wounds. Komodo hunts mostly in ambush, but they also run fast and swim well. Moreover, its incredible hunting ability is also combined with the ability to consume, in one meal it can eat the amount of food equal to half its body weight. 5. Crocodile There is nothing more threatening than a predator always hiding in the water, in disguise and in the environment, quietly observing the prey to plan a kill. Ranked No. 5 on the countdown list is a crocodile, a sneaky and extremely brutal predator. With extremely strong jaws and long sharp teeth, alligators hunt for many different species. Some species, like the Nile crocodile, can cut down very large prey like zebras or buffalo. Its offensive feature is to lie at the edge of the water where the animal comes to drink and then pull the unfortunate animal into the water to begin to bite when it has slices of meat for a meal. 4. Whale killer Like its name suggests, killer whales are deadly predators, combined with formidable skill and unparalleled physical strength. Killer whales have a number of ingenious techniques in their hunting weapons, which give them one of the most diverse rations of ocean predators. For example, they love to knock seals and penguins from floating ice and then catch them when they fall into the water. They also go to the beach to catch the sea bridge on the shore. Being a highly social animal, killer whales tend to live in groups of about ten to hunt together. They can even hunt white sharks! 3. American North American Bear The North American Bear, also known as the brown bear, is probably the most terrifying animal in North America. This mighty predator can stand about 2m tall and weigh more than 360kg. Its strong arms and hands can kill a person in just one click, and its strong jaws also allow it to eat everything it wants, including large mammals. Bears run fast and swim well. Facing this species in the wild would be a traumatic experience, the best response is to stand still and not run away at all. The speed of this species can reach more than 65km / h and your run can make it chase. 2. Lions Dubbed the lord of the rainforest, lions hunt even the largest prey like buffalo and wildebeest. The near-absolute success of these predators is due to a combination of skills. Lions live in groups and all members go hunting together. The young lions soon learned hunting skills through a game of fighting together, which also decided their proper role in the chase. The success rate of a lion’s hunt is only 1/5 but the hunting abilities are emphasized when we consider their prey – both large and resilient. . 1. White Shark Any animal that has unfortunately caught the white shark’s sights does not seem to have a chance of survival. The white shark occupies the top spot on the countdown list because of its outstanding hunting ability. With its elongated bodies and strong teeth, the white shark is a powerful species: swim fast and this nimble ocean athlete can bounce out of the water to tip his prey. The white shark also has several rows of sharp jagged edges, each of which is replaced immediately after being lost. In fact, a shark can have more than 50,000 teeth in its lifetime. The white shark usually starts its attack with a fatal blow, then waits for the victim to weaken from the wound before enjoying it – this makes it possible to enjoy the meal safely.
