Am I vastly underestimating the gorilla here? 100 men? We're swarming that dude like ants. His eyes are getting poked out in the first 30 seconds.

    We’re swarming that dude like ants.

    Are we? Or are we standing awkwardly in a circle, waiting for some other dumbass to make the first move, because the first guy to make a move is not gonna have a fun time.

    Well the gorilla will make the first move in that case, and if you don't make the move while it is busy mauling the unlucky first, you could be next.

    Oh who am I kiding? With how involved most people are in politics, they would not make a move until it is too late.

    Assuming it's a small arena battle to the death, yes. Do or Die.

    If it was a open world battle then the 100 people would just take turns harassing the gorilla until it dies of exhaustion. That wouldn't be a fair fight at all. Gorilla might get a handful of people but he's just exhausting myself more.

    If not fighting is an option, I guess the men will stand in a crowd making noise and the gorilla will just chill in his corner. I suppose you have to assume that all parties are 100% committed to violence

    locked in a room, after the first day of real hunger that gorilla starts to maybe look like a good idea

    Now there's an interesting scenario. In the short term, you might have better luck trying to eat your fellow humans, rather than confronting the gorilla. Which seems like an analogy for how certain types of government stay in power...

    I mean, is this just an impromptu gorilla fight, or do we get to plan?

    People who want to fistfight a gorilla aren't probably too big on planning.

    With a bit of organization? Some guys distract it, others hit its head from behind!With a bit of luck we could start raping it after like 30 secs!

    I am not saying we should, that would be disgusting! I am saying we could

    One of the things that sets the human animal apart is throwing things. That poor gorilla is getting pelted with a million rocks. RIP hambre sr.

    Unless handicapped, any human child can throw a ball, catch a ball, throw a stick strait. No other animal even comes close.

    And here I am feeling sorry for myself because I can't throw a cast net properly. :(

    Lol, in this scenario the majority of the injuries/deaths would be from the stampede of people running away from the gorilla after seeing it disembowel someone.

    This is like someone saying why don't groups of people always just rush someone with an ar-15?

    No, this is a planned fight to the death. Only an idiot assumes only pansies are signing up for it.

    How many people do you think actually have experiences with a "fight to the death", and how many people insane enough to sign up for this would just be people overestimating their own skills and bravery?

    gorilla is equally informed and willing about the situation, the gorilla looses.

    My guy.... it's a gorilla. A gorilla cannot be as equally informed and willing as a person. What are you going to do, make it sign a contract?

    A gorilla is one of the more peaceful apes. More peaceful than humans.

    Unless provoked...... Not many people are stupid enough to provoke a male silverback.

    uninformed gorilla would perform worse, so thanks for inadvertently proving my point while continuing to misunderstand it.

    Uninformed? How exactly are a hundred people going to pull off a sneak attack on a gorilla?

  • Lol, I'm not stating that 100 humans do not process the endurance to kill a gorilla. I'm stating that a hundred strangers would panic and injure each other in the attempt to not be the next person rag dolled across the floor.

    Everyone is tough until they watch someone get their face bitten off......
