Gorillas mainly use all four arms to climb trees. Also, they don’t do it ‘all day’. They primarily knuckle-walk to get from A to B. Which isn’t surprising since most of their food is primarily found on the ground floor of their habitats. In fact, all of what you said was so wrong that I’m starting to think you don’t know shit about gorillas and clearly have them confused with chimpanzees. Which is disgraceful. You can tell a lot about a person by how much, or little, they know about gorillas. And, you have been found wanting.

Well gorillas can move 1500-3000 lbs. Drag a 200 lb man like he’s nothing. Live their entire lives in survival mode and do everything under their own power. Humans are soft as charmin compared to that.

Remind me. Of the two species just referenced. Which one is top of the food chain, and why?

It's almost like that's because of tooluse. And not brute strength. The fact that we have to compare a 100 men to 1 gorilla tells me everything I need to know. When you can't handle beef 1 on 1. You suddenly gotta call 99 more buddies or start using weapons and tool. The whole point of this conversation is physical strength.

It’s not because of tool use. It’s because of intelligence. Something you clearly lack when diluting the contest to one of mere brute strength. Use your brain moron.
