100 Men vs 1 Gorilla
 
Has anyone heard about the newest viral craze?

https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/...ion-rcna203764

Why isnt anyone asking about 100 gorillas vs Chuck Norris?

Weirdly, I have heard about this lately...

I think the gorilla's ferociousness would scare off the majority of men (no matter how brave or drunk they might be) before they could even rally or unify against the ape.

While gorillas are some of the most peaceful of primates, they still have a temper and their displays of aggression are some of the scariest.

And it wouldn't be just like pile on and we'll overwhelm him with numbers - while trying, guys' arms, legs and heads would be getting ripped off. And then there's the damage a gorilla's teeth could do!

No one in their right mind would try to fight a gorilla in hand to hand combat even if they had the numbers - and anyone not in their right mind would probably be scared into their right mind before they even had a chance to run away.

Haha yeah this craze...A well-intentioned gorilla would win all of these matchups I've seen so far.

I think 100 gorillas against 1 man would be far more interesting.

What about a gorilla with not-so-great intentions?
(I think such a gorilla would win even quicker.) ;)

There were a couple (insert specific field of study) experts that weighed in. Eliminating all the factors needed for this to happen…

The men would overpower the gorilla without the psychological factor. Hard to know where you find the first 20 men that know they are gonna be sacrificed.

Maybe it was Steel that said years ago, “Have you ever forcibly tried to pin down a cat?” It’s no party. Now exponentially increase the animal’s strength.

I thought about this some more.

It's clear this requires some out-of-the-box thinking, because I realized there's an easy way for just ONE guy to prevail against a gorilla.

Just make that guy a projectionist.

Have the projectionist show the gorilla a Christopher Nolan film, the gorilla will be bored to tears, fall asleep, and then that's the end of it.

I would imagine the gorilla would tire very quickly given their body type.

It's deceiving. They look cumbersome, but they're more like solid muscle.
Like any wild animal, if angered or feeling threatened or territorial, they might not tire until they're digesting their adversaries!
(Yeah, I know gorillas are vegetarians, but make one mad and he might make an exception.)

And now this...
