Here's a tortoise racing a hare on the internet, as nature and Tim Berners-Lee intended.

With more than 100,000 people tuning in to watch the battle live on Super Deluxe's Facebook page, the question of who should win this animal kingdom face-off has left friendships in smoking ruins. But here at Mashable, we wish both animals well in their endeavours.

As one commenter put it, "The tortoise is like my life. Still not moving."
