I saw a story of how Mike Tyson tried to get the zookeepers to open the cage to let him fight a gorilla. That just shows how egotistical us humans are when it comes to comparing ability to animals. To THINK that you have the slightest chance of beating up a gorilla is beyond ignorant. One swipe to the head and you can cancel Christmas

[@AyushKumar-nf5ke]

It's unfortunate that we humans try to challenge the nature's strength. One should understand that nature has given these animals this strength.

[@Karma-cj1wu]

@Thou Swell nope

[@Karma-cj1wu]

@Thou Swell Mike's strength is probably not close to a chimps strength but not far either, he has good agility but not as good as the chimp, his bite force is strong enough to tear yo ears off with ease but not as good as the chimp, he's crazy but not crazy enough. His only weapon is his punch power which would really hurt a chimp ( + steel knuckles, because why not ). Mike wins 6/10 while chimp wins 7/10. Chimps weapon is their bite so b4 the chimp could bite mike, it would get punch. But yes adult angry chimp has more chance winning, Because of it being more vicious

There is 1 known man that has beaten a Gorilla in a fight. He was small in stature, wore red overalls and was a plumber by trade. He outsmarted an angry giant gorilla throwing barrels at him. His name was Mario. Thanks to him, humanity is safe from this giant gorilla known as Donkey Kong.

Nope. No registered Gorilla in good standing has reached 550 pounds or 250 kilos. Only obese and fat specimens in captivity. The largest healthy gorillas rarely reach 210 kilos. The largest hardly usually exceed the barrier of 200 kilos and this on very rare occasions. Otherwise your data is fine... I guess.

While all the things about the diet and his muscles are true, the very foundation of the gorillas strength is his bone size and structure. I stood once in a museum and there was a human skeleton nearby a gorilla skeleton. One of the major misconception is we think about size either in terms of body height or in terms of mass (in flesh), but the truth is, the bones of the gorilla are massively big! At least 2-3 times the circumfrance of the human bones, which allows him to have much bigger sinews and therefore build up bigger muscles too. And his muscles of course are not only big, but due to its wild lifestyle the meat is red and allows for more oxygen to be carried. I think a silverback is far stronger than 4 times average human male. Its proven that even a chimp is far stronger than a man

[@souldesire5932]

I think that's why Wilt Chaimberlan was so strong. It wasn't the outward fleshly muscles, although of course they matter. But the overall skeleton and bone density that made him so strong. Same with other species, it's not so much the muscles, although the fibers can work differently, but the skeletal structure and density.

Many years ago, I saw a TV show about the strength of a Gorilla. It was at The San Diego Zoo. There was an automotive spring welded to a steel plate. They welded a steel handle to the spring and bolted it to the wall in the Gorilla's compound. A local strong man tried to pull that spring and couldn't budge it. They let the Gorilla out and in no time, he found a new plaything. He stood flatfooted and with his right arm pulled that spring across his mighty chest. ONE PULL and the spring was ruined. I believe the word is 'flaccid'. It just sort of hung there---ruined---the Gorilla got bored and went over to the other side of the compound and started twisting car tires into figure '8's'. Gorillas could absolutely tear your head off of your body!

The amazing thing about the surgery, was that the surgeons kept incising deeper expecting to encounter the abdominal cavity, but there was just layer upon layer of muscle. The actual abdominal cavity was the size of a child's, but there was about 3-4x thicker muscle, encasing and protecting her. I can only imagine what a 400 pound silver' back's musculature is like.

So I used to live near the zoo in melbourne and some of the staff used to drink at my local after work and I got to know them pretty well. One nigh% they let me hang back there with my gf and watch them out the gorillas to bed. The silverbacks name is Mzuri, there’s a really famous photo of him giggling while being tickled as a baby. At the time I think he was in his 20’s and weighed slightly under 200 kilos. Absolutely massive, but as I watched through the glass and he climbed into his bunk I could just tell how truly gentle and intelligent he was. Just don’t piss him off! There’s no way any human would stand a chance against a gorilla unless their name is Tarzan lol

[@the_reptilian_researcher_360]

@@Kaiju-bm4ts I totally agree but at the same time the movie did kinda set Kong up for his inevitable beat down at the claws of Godzilla. I mean they drugged Kong and then chaining him up on a boat in the middle of the ocean just to get nearly drowned by Godzilla. Yeah Kong was very unexpirenced with fighting a titain of Godzilla's power so he struggled a little but it really does take some balls to square up with a Plazma Breathing Crocodile (which is probably how Kong sees Godzilla). Kong was the underdog while Godzilla was the misunderstood villain/hero, but this movie did shine more light on Kong's personality traits humanizing him which made me more of a fan of the big gorilla.

@@joseprado8538 There are no such studies as you say. I mean no scientific studies. There is one real one though and chimpanzees have 1,3 times stronger muscle fibers than humans have. Gorillas are in same league with chimpanzees. For instance big cats have almost 3 times stronger muscle fibers than humans meaning, that they have over 2 times stronger muscle fibers than primates like gorillas. So for instance lions and tigers are ways stronger than us or gorillas. And then there are bears, biggest and strongest carnivores. Naturally biggest herbivores are huge.
