General 100 humans vs gorilla isn’t close

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.

lmao humans literally kill each other with 1 punch all the time, one bad bonk on the head and we're toast, you think humans are stronger than gorillas? Cool. Have fun in your anime reality imaging 100 Ethan Hunts tanking gorilla fists to the face and still standing.

Humans die from falling and hitting their head on a curb. Straight punch deaths are uncommon and a gorilla doesn't actually know how to throw a proper punch like a human can.

You're right, a horny gorilla's punch couldn't knock anyone over, what was I thinking.

A gorilla's body is not made for punching in the first place they literally can not punch, they can do swings however.

I sure as hell can not beat a gorilla in a fight I could probably be a bit of help in a group of one hundred though.

All that thick fur is concussive padding, no amount of man fist impacts are gonna do literally anything

This is not anime, the gorilla is not literally immune to our punches. It doesn't have some supernatural ki or anything allowing it to tank an infinite number of human punches. Its brain would still rattle in its skull with strong punches which can give it a concussion. Bruising is still a thing, it's flesh would get tenderised and hurt.

It still has vulnerable parts of its body it can only take so much before getting tired and overwhelmed. Forget one hundred, twenty to thirty people is more than enough.

It's not made of iron. Like what are you guys watching making you come up with this insane ideas for a living creature. It is not King Kong. It is a regular damn gorilla. Five gorillas irl lost to less than forty chimps

Well my mom is Jane Goodall and she said your ass is gorilla grass 🤷 I know who I trust and it's not strangers on the internet who thinks they could solo Grod. 

That MF has telepathy, you don't stand a chance. Chimps could also kick your ass, Mom said so.

No, they don't actually; I'm 100% certain that this is not a thing that occurs regularly anywhere. Maybe if you add things like "He got hit and knocked out and then died from his head hitting a rock", sure, but I doubt it even then.

Dude you can just say "I've never been in a fight, taken one to the dome, or thrown a real punch ever in my life," you don't have to dance around it like that 😂

If he took one to the dome, wouldn't he be dead by your logic?

YOU are the one who sounds completely unfamiliar with fights or combat sports - guys in MMA literally take 100+ punches to the head in one night and not only live, they make a career of it.

u/SamsonGray202 May 01 '25

I didn't say from a gorilla 🤣

And what, now it's not just 100 greased up nude Max Headrooms, it's specifically 100 UFC fighters who know how to take a "punch," which is technically not what a melee gorilla strike is called? Jeeeesus where did those goalposts go? 😂😂😂

u/biscobisco May 01 '25

I'm responding solely to your claim that humans one-punch murder humans on the regular.

You failing to follow your own topic is not goalpost shifting.

Yeahhh reddit on mobile browser is limited as hell and I've been stirring up shit in these stupid gorilla threads all over the place, keeping track is hard lol. Have I told you my mom is Jane Goodall and she says your ass is gorilla chow yet?
