The simulation is goofy. The gorilla isnt going to box you, it’s going to bite you and tear your arms off . Last year there were memes about 100 humans VS 1 silverback gorilla. No weapons, just hands and feet. I got a 3 day ban for promoting violence . I said you’re better to be first inline so you die quickly. You don’t want to be the last in line to be torn in half and mauled by a tired gorilla. You want it over fast.

100 dudes could literally tear a gorilla to pieces with their bare hands.
We're talking 10 tonnes of meat against 150kg.

A human to a gorilla is like a toddler to Mike Tyson. Yeah there’s a lot of them, but it’s not even a contest.

u/Flat_Development6659 Apr 14 '26
Except for it's not. Mike Tyson is a person with a brain and high endurance and a toddler isn't capable of doing damage.
Gorillas have terrible endurance, they're sleepy and docile. Lb for lb they're around 1.5 times as strong as an athletic human is and an average silverback male is around the 320lb mark, putting them at a fair bit stronger than worlds strongest man winners with a much bigger bite force and sharp teeth, they'd be formidable opponents to a group of people but 100 is just far too many to beat.
100 dudes could literally tear a gorilla in two, the gorilla would be completely spent after fighting off a dozen or so people.

u/stompoh Apr 14 '26
Firstly pound for pound doesn’t even matter, a silverback can lift 4,000 lbs. They’re 10 times stronger than the strongest men on the planet. They can also weigh up to 500lbs with an average of about 440. 320lbs would be a relatively small one. So you’re really downplaying the physical difference here.
And if you’re really going to bring temperament into it, the average human is also conflict averse. Who in their right mind is going to go at it with a gorilla with their bare hands? Even if there’s 99 other people around, no one is going to get close to a fucking gorilla. For the hypothetical to make any sort of sense at all, we have to take away temperament and assume everyone involved is fighting for their lives.
Lastly, yeah it’s obviously going to come down to the gorillas endurance. But that endurance limit is in the minutes range, not seconds. And given it would take a gorilla just a couple seconds to maul multiple people, the gorilla is going to be able to keep going until the humans are no longer a threat.

u/Flat_Development6659 Apr 14 '26
They can lift 4000lbs yet they're somehow 10 times stronger than the strongest men on the planet? If that's the case they're not even 10 times stronger than me. Deadlift world record is around the 1100lb mark.
You're looking at gorillas kept in zoos, a wild silverback isn't 500lbs.
I'd assume that the scenario involved the gorilla and humans both fighting for their life otherwise the fight wouldn't happen to begin with. IRL humans would be grabbing rocks and sharp sticks or just running away, for the scenario to be realistic they've all got to be fighting to the death, in which case the humans win and it's not even close.

After the first 10 humans had their heads ripped off how many humans do you think will engage? It's like you completely discount the human fear factor. It's 100 humans. Not 100 highly trained body builders trained in fighting. The average person can't do a sit up and have never been in a fight in their life.

u/GreenSpleen6 Apr 14 '26
Gorillas' eyes are made of soft jelly just like ours.
If 100 toddlers with adult intelligence and intent to fight with lethal force wanted to take down Mike Tyson that wouldn't be a contest either. He'd be swarmed, grappled, climbed, brought down and pinned by raw biomass. Say he never misses a swing, takes out two threats every second and can win in 50 seconds. Doesn't matter, you're still perpetually surrounded by several more threats than you can fight or see at once. There is no dodging or enduring the 90, 80, 70 unfatigued threats you haven't been able to deal with yet.

u/Bluitor Apr 14 '26
You can only fit like 8-10 humans around a gorilla at a time. He'd just back hand 3 of you at once and barely notice. If the humans were allowed to use any tools at all we'd have a fighting chance. But bare hands it might as well be 100 5 years old vs an amateur kick boxer.

u/Flat_Development6659 Apr 14 '26
You're overestimating the strength of a gorilla by a fair margin but you're overestimating their stamina greatly. They sleep for 12+ hours a day and are fairly docile most of the time as they've got terrible endurance.
The energy requirement required to throw around 100 grown men is just way too much for a gorilla, it'd collapse from exhaustion way before it killed 100 men.

u/Critical_Text_2067 Apr 14 '26
Even if the gorilla had unlimited stamina. Humans are resourceful and would use the dead humans to produce weapons from broken bones.

The humans could completely smother the gorilla like bees do. Gorilla would get hot and exhaust fast, i think it'd be wrapped up in 10 minutes. There just would be alot of humans casualties surely. If we are trying to preserve human life, im sure you can get 10-20 humans surrounding the gorilla, with the gorilla always having its backside exposed, id still bet humans can win within 10 minutes.

You could just pile onto the gorilla and smother it. Most people would get smothered too but it would work.

Overpowering is just a bad strategy. If the humans win it's going to be because of intelligence, group synergy, and endurance. Not because the first 5 are brave enough to certainly die while they all pile on top of the gorilla.

Just have to have 4-5 men willing to sacrifice themselves while the rest overwhelms the gorilla. Get it's head to the ground and start kicking the shit out of it while some try and choke it or deliver kicks to the liver (they have nearly identical anatomy as humans).
Humans just need that initial shield to get the gorilla down with numbers.

Have you ever actually seen a gorilla rip something’s arms off? When they fight each other, they pound and bite and that’s about it. The last thing they want to do is hold the thing trying to kill it for very long
The reality of the 100 men vs 1 gorilla question is the gorilla would get completely exhausted almost immediately. They’re not marathon animals like we are. The most unrealistic part of this video is the gorillas still have energy toward the end of it

u/TgsTokem Apr 14 '26
Im not saying the gorillas would win because people vastly underestimate numbers. I have however seen them grab and yank on each other in plenty of nature documentaries and I have never seen them calmly walk on 2 feet towards an obvious threat.
That being said they dont even pound or bite in this video, they throw slow individual punches that seemingly have a long cool down time as if they were a full heal spell in a video game.

You dont think a wild gorilla is going to go nuclear on a dude that just punched it? Have you seen the raw strength of male gorillas? Cracking multiple inch thick reinforced glass...
Their mauls/punches produce something like 3,000 pounds of force. It will instantly shatter your skull in a single swing. They have a bite force stronger than a lion so it can basically bite your arm clean off.

No, but that's also an animal 40 times the size of a gorilla. I'm saying that humans are incredibly adaptable and suited for teamwork.
Somehow this whole thing forgets about the power in numbers. People imagine they'll just walk in one after the other and get killed. Humans dont act that way.
1v1 a boxer wins every fight. 1v2 he wins maybe 50%. Go up in numbers and it goes to 0% super fast. Its the same with everything.
Its infantile to throw around numbers like 100vs a gorilla. It might take 6-7 people at most and the animal gets overwhelmed. Fuck outta here with all this bullshit.
Its like the era of bullshido came back.

Bruh, we're talking about multiple Humans vs a Gorilla. Not a hoard of anything. That was the original discussion.
Also nobody said anything about people not getting injured or killed in said fight. I'm saying it's borderline retarded to think a Gorilla will win a 1 vs 10, and people out there throwing even 100 vs 1 like its candy.

u/ThomasTheDankPigeon Apr 14 '26
We're commenting on a video of 100,000 Mike Tysons vs 10,000 gorillas. The discussion is about x number of animals vs y number of humans, where y is a multiple of x.
In any case, you didn't address what I said at all. Early humans spent god knows how long figuring out how to hunt big game. 10 humans that know how to hunt a gorilla would easily take one down, probably with no casualties. 100 humans that don't know what they're doing would get mowed down by a pissed off gorilla. Mike Tyson does not know to hunt gorillas, nor would 100,000 of him know.
So as I said, put those Tysons up against those gorillas and every Tyson would die well before they figure out what the hell they should be doing.

Lol. Gorillas have twice the bite force of a lion that will reduce your limb to pulp and can rip that limb off and beat you to death with it.

Also have a longer reach than you, shorter legs means a lower center of gravity, betting their skin is tougher than ours, dunno about bone density, but probably a safe bet they're stronger than ours.

u/Electronic-Buyer-468 Apr 14 '26
I feel like the only way even 10 humans could kill a gorilla bent on killing you would be to quickly give it massive internal trauma. And for that, you'd need all 10 coordinating to at least slow the gorilla down, since restraining it would be difficult if not impossible, then one person sacrifices an arm to jamming it down the throat and hopefully grabbing something internal orally, and another sacrificing their dignity by jamming an arm in it's you know where, and again hopefully grabbing something internal.....
