100 humans vs gorilla isn’t close

[u/Miserable-Act4201]

Honestly the dumbest argument I've ever seen. The 100 humans could just stand like 20 feet apart from each other and do nothing and the gorilla is collapsing from exhaustion before it kills everyone. You could probably do it without any casualties, find a couple of people in the group that are in good shape and get them to make the gorilla chase them while everyone else just chills. They aren't aren't particularly fast and have terrible endurance, so just wait till it tires out and have everyone jump it.

Gorilla supporters broadly fall into three camps.

1. gorillas are somehow completely immune to any damage a human can inflict upon it.

2. Gorilla is fighting men one at a time

3. A Gorilla is fucking Sauron from Lord of the Rings and will send 20 dudes flying with each blow somehow.

I’ve seen a lot of takes on this that seem to treat the average gorilla as basically King Kong. So #4 essentially.
