On this basis the 'fastest' organism on earth, relative to its body length, is the Southern Californian mite, Paratarsotomus macropalpis, which has a speed of 322 body lengths per second. [4] The equivalent speed for a human, running as fast as this mite, would be 1,300 mph (2,092 km/h), [5] or approximately Mach 1.7.

The FIA does not recognize separate men's and women's land speed records, because the records are set using motorized vehicles, and not muscle-powered vehicles, so the gender of the driver does not matter; however, unofficial women's records have long been claimed, seemingly starting with Dorothy Levitt's 1906 record ...
The human brain has many advantages over even the most advanced AI—creative thinking, ethical judgements, and intuition, just to name a few. But when it comes to information processing speed ...
