You’ve probably never thought about it, but we’re scary. That’s right…us. Humans. We’re terrifying, actually. Out of all the animals on this planet, we are at the top of the food chain. We have no natural predators, and even if we did have them in the past, we locked them into cages and now take our kids to look at them. If aliens were to come to Earth, there is good reason for them to be quite terrified. We are insanely violent as a species. In fact, we view mutually assured destruction as an acceptable outcome. If our houses are knocked down by a natural disaster or a war, we come right back and build them where they used to be.
Of course, this list is meant to be fun. But it’s secondary value, if there is any, would be to make us take a step back and think of ourselves differently. What if we saw humanity through the eyes of an alien who had just teleported to Earth? What would that alien report back to the mother ship? And that is exactly where our list picks up today. These are 25 reasons that aliens should be scared of us!
