One thing worth mentioning about chimps vs gorillas: while the adults rarely fight, chimps have been known to target juvenile gorillas to assert territorial dominance.

[@sadfaery]

And in recent years in Loango National Park in Gabon, scientists have observed chimps banding together to go after a troop of gorillas and killing gorilla infants. They think it might be due to food insecurity related to climate change, but the fact that it's happening at all is new and as possible because of the much larger numbers of the chimpanzee groups compared to the gorilla troops.

Probably not as efficiently as humans because of center of gravity. Humans are the only great apes that is always perfectly upright. Its the only reason we can throw things with such high accuracy. Deadlifting is using your back muscles to raise a weight to an upright stance. An upright stance is already more difficult for a gorilla, they can, but its not natural for them.

The photo you used was of eddie hall and was lifting 500kg. Gorillas are obviously strong but it is pretty much a guess when it come to how much they can lift as it has never been done.

[@JT-km6th]

Yup, all the "gorillas can life 2tons over their heads" are lies. There is no experiment for that, and it would be unethical as the scientist could kill the gorilla that way.

If a gorilla goes to war, is it called gorilla warfare?

The deadlifting power of gorillas has never been verified and there is no reason that it can't be. These allegations of being able to lift 1800 lb are unfounded...

In many ways is sad the big Silverbacks are not fighters. Lots of display of strength. Sad because rare aggression towards animals & humans attack them.

[@hydewhyte4364]

This may be accurate if the fight takes place uniquely in gorilla habitat and using just their physical attributes .... but that's not the only way that fight might go down. The other three combatants have been known to use tools, and can climb out of reach. A chimp in a tree with a club or a rock might change those odds.

[@vornamenachname989]

Gorillas are not dumb by any means, some say they are even smarter than chimps. Also, a chimp picking up a rock would not be enough to fight the gorilla if the gorilla can tear the chimp's arms straight off. One gorilla vs one chimp is a major mismatch.

[@CountChocula-on9ix]

chimps don't stand a prayer in hell against a gorilla. They will be torn like paper mache. They would need a gang to fight against a gorilla. LMAO Orangutan might fight off the gorilla enough to escape but even he wouldn't stand a chance.

[@klmoll]

Gorillas are excellent climbers and in the wild make a new nest every night in a tree with the Silverback watching guard under the trees

Fighting over territories between gorillas and chimps usually end with the gorillas leaving their place...

Se homens com experiencia em combate e agressividade + motivação o suficiente lutassem contra chimpanzés ou bonobos poderiamos ver uma luta bem disputada, não pra matar mas eu diria um empate ou quase isso.

There were some scientific mistakes here, if I might. The Eastern Low Land Gorilla and the Mountain Gorilla are both of the subspecies "Beringei"; the prior being Gorilla Beringei Graueri and the latter Gorilla Beringei Beringei. The Western gorillas being the Cross River and the Western Low Land Gorilla are part of the subspecies Gorilla Gorilla, respectively called Gorilla Gorilla Diehli and Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla (this one was indeed correct).

[@gooble69]

"There were some scientific mistakes here, if I might" But are they really? Because they reclassify these things all the time and who really gets to decide?

If you really wanna know the strength of a gorilla, just watch the video of the 4 researchers watching gorillas and one of them drags the researcher by the ankle as if he weighed only 2lbs

Interesting video overall, but on 2:06 you should have done a little more research. That pic is of Eddie Hall's famous 500kg deadlift, although this was done with straps and a deadlift suit. This heaviest raw deadlift was done by Benni Magnusson and was 460kg. Still a hell of a lot more than 410kg.
