By speed · Order from slowest to fastest.

1. A casual cyclist 12.5 km/h

   The bicycle is one of the most efficient machines ever made, turning muscle into distance better than walking.

2. An ice hockey slapshot 178 km/h

   A slapshot flexes the stick like a spring, snapping stored energy into the puck for a brutal release.

3. A golden eagle in a dive 245 km/h

   A golden eagle can spot a rabbit from over three kilometres away, then fold its wings into a lethal stoop.

4. 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.

5. The motorcycle land-speed record 640 km/h

   Streamlined record bikes look like rockets on wheels, with the rider lying flat inside a sealed shell.

6. A 5.56mm rifle bullet 3.1K km/h

   Small, fast rifle rounds tumble on impact, transferring energy in ways a slower, heavier bullet would not.
