In the natural world, say in the jungle or mountains/woods, the gorilla would just escape. No group of men are going to chase down a gorilla over broken/rough terrains.

I think the idea for this 'game,' is that for some reason the gorilla and the men are going to fight to the death; there's no escape/make friends option. They're fighting until one side is dead.

I'm guessing the idea is basically gladiator-style in the Coliseum, for example.



And someone else mentioned it would make a difference depending on what kind of men and gorilla we're talking about. And i completely agree. I think obviously it would have to be a full-grown in-its-prime silverback, 500+ lbs. strength of 10+ men kind of gorilla. And can't forget that gorilla's bite, with an average bite strength of over 1,300 psi. that's 8-9 times that of a human, and 3 times more than an African Lion, nearly 4 times the pressure needed to crush a coconut, or a human skull.

And the men would be . . . that could get more interesting. The 'average' man has the strength of a baby gorilla (at best), and nearly every animal on the planet has a stronger bite. The men would have to actually beat the gorilla to death using just hands/feet.



100 NFL LBs from the 1970s? I might take the men.




100 of the "Greatest Generation? in their primes? The men.




100 men of the current generation just randomly picked from American HS/colleges fresh off their last game of HALO or whatever? I'm taking the gorilla.




100 NBA players from this year's rosters? Gorilla.


And so on
