By speed · Order from slowest to fastest.

1. A foraging ant 800 m/h

   Ants leave scent trails so nestmates can retrace the exact path to food, like an invisible chemical map.

2. A crawling baby 1.4 km/h

   Babies often invent their own crawling styles, from the classic hands-and-knees to a one-legged commando shuffle.

3. A person walking 5 km/h

   The average person takes around 7,000 steps a day, walking the equivalent of several times around Earth in a lifetime.

4. A striking barracuda 42 km/h

   Barracudas can lunge in sudden bursts to ambush prey, sometimes mistaking a swimmer's shiny jewellery for fish.

5. A speeding hovercraft 145 km/h

   A hovercraft floats on a cushion of trapped air, gliding equally well over water, land, ice and mud.

6. A Bugatti Chiron at top speed 510 km/h

   The Chiron is electronically limited; unleashed, its tyres would tear themselves apart from the sheer forces.
