  1. The fastest running "land" animal is the Cheetah, attaining  speeds of approximately 60 MPH.

    The fastest animal under the water is the Sailfish, reaching speeds upwards of 30 to 40 MPH.

    The fastest animal on earth is the Peregrine Falcon, which can dive at 250 MPH.

    Fastest running insect is the Cockroach.


  2. It all depends on the distance. Cheetahs are fast for short sistances. Then they collapse. You could run one down, not that I recommend you do so.

    Over a distance of three miles, no animal can outrun a saluki, one of the sight-hounds.

  3. Man, as they have automobiles.

  4. Cheetah

    ....I don't even see ostrich on this top 20 Fastest Land Animals  ;-p

  8. Has your moron friend not got access to the internet where he could have saved himself the cash by confirming the facts himself ? Still, no skin off your nose with his cash in your pocket. Perhaps you could run along to the bank as fast as a cheetah whilst laughing your *** off at such an idiot.
