Not sure who these foolishly brave Americans are who think they can beat an elephant and a grizzly bear bare handed.

Or even a kangaroo, those things can be scary af. Forget about anything bigger.

I think your best bet fighting a Kangaroo would be to work it from the sides, Kangaroos can't jump backwards and usually punch or grapple and kick forwards. If you consider it like a southpaw fighting an orthodox boxer, they would have their lead foot on the outside of the orthodox fighters, making the orthodox constantly having to turn towards them while they work from the side and continue pivoting keeping an advantage on their opponent.

I've seen videos of men winning fights against kangaroos on YouTube.

Maybe a grizzly bear when you poke him in the eye just right? But an elephant... You've got nothing

By the time you poke his eyes, the grizzly poke your stomach out of your belly

I really want to know what they think they'd be doing to the eagle.

Birds have fragile bones. They're going to fuck you up, but victory is certain.

Yeah, even one of the largest eagles, the harpy, tops out at around 22 pounds. You could get all your weight on top of it and eventually smother it.
