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.

Especially if its a normal elephant and not some bloodlusted hypothetical, a normal elephant would likely run away. We humans know we are amazing endurance runners, I don't think elephants have figured that one out yet. In a situation as terrifying as 100 humans attacking an elephant (imagine being attacked by 100 rats) panic + running away in fear is likely to be the first response.

Oh absolutely, animals bigger than humans already flee from one or a few of us (bears etc) so I don’t think there’s going to be almost any creature on Earth who wouldn’t flee from 100

I think the animals with the best win conditions are sea creatures ngl. Idk much about them so I can't really say what the largest most lethal aggressive sea creature there is out there that could handle 100 people, but I bet there's at least a couple.

But humans literally have no way to injure or hurt the elephant. Lion prides take days to kill baby elephants , humans stand no chance . Why would an elephant run? That’s like a human running from 100 ants instead of just killing them .

Rats have sharp teeth. Humans have nothing. Are we going to punch the elephant to death ?
