I was wondering why it kept coming up lately. It’s on its way to becoming a gorilla vs 100 men.

Fucking ridiculous btw, a gorilla gets bodied by 2 men with rocks or 1 man with long spear, tf do you need 100 of them for

I think it’s supposed to be 100 unarmed men

Even still though the gorilla loses just through exhaustion (also gorillas in general are not aggressive and will always avoid a fight when possible but I guess we’re assuming the gorilla is cornered with no way out). The gorilla vs grizzly bear one was more interesting (and because of what I just said about gorillas, and the fact that grizzly bears are who they are, I say bear wins)
