00:00This is Australia's most iconic kickboxer.
00:05Meet the kangaroo, the buff marsupial.
00:08Kangaroos are four marsupials in the family Macropodidae, and they are the largest marsupials
00:13on Earth, specifically the red kangaroo.
00:16A newborn kangaroo is only the size of a jelly bean, about 1 inch or 2.5 centimeters, but
00:22a full-grown red kangaroo can grow up to 8 feet or 2.4 meters and weigh up to 200 pounds
00:28or 90 kilograms, with pure muscle accounting for 50% of their total weight.
00:32As a result, they are naturally muscular, especially in their hind legs, since they
00:36move around by hopping, and they can cover up to 30 feet or 9 meters in a single leap,
00:41with a 10 feet or 3 meters vertical jump.
00:44Additionally, male kangaroos often fight each other, in order to assert dominance, and a
00:49fully grown male kangaroo can deliver a bone-shattering kick, at 760 pounds of force, that can cause
00:56fatal injuries.
