Being fast is easy. Turning is the real trick — and these three animals are the best in the world at it.
A cheetah can hit 58 miles an hour — but its real weapon is the brakes. It can slow from 36 to 9 miles an hour in one second, shrinking its turning circle from 20 metres to just over one metre.
A fox squirrel can leap more than six times its own body length — and land with four times its own weight — and stick the landing.
And a dragonfly catches its prey in mid-air about 95 times out of 100. It doesn't chase where its prey is — just 16 brain cells predict where it will be, and its four wings each move on their own.
