On the one hand, a gorilla, an animal of around 200 kilos. On the other, 100 men. If the two teams face a fight, which one would you win? This is the question that fascinates and divides social networks.
It all started with a publication about X, former-Twitter, April 25. “I think 100 guys could beat a gorilla, everyone should focus on that,” he says. Quickly, his message went viral. Supera 274 million visits. So much so that the debate moved to Tiktok, Instagram or Reddit.
Simulations, encyclopedia and cryptocurrencies
In an attempt to answer the question, some have recreated combat simulations. For more than a minute, you can see a gorilla … kill men one by one and succeed over the legion. The video exceeds 5 million visits.
The official story of Encyclopedia Britannica, one of the oldest encyclopedias in the world, also shared some pages of her famous work to help Internet users to compare the builders of the two opponents and try to identify the winner of fighting.
In comments, Internet users are divided. Some are convinced: men would certainly beat the gorilla. “We leave it on the ground. I don’t even know how to fight, but believe me we got to the end. They are not Hulk boys,” says Rohhkevin on Tiktok.
“But you realize that it is a gorilla? A gorilla tear a human in 1v1 as if it were a twig,” says Xuor. “The silver back gorilla has a bite equivalent to that of the jaguar (…) but against 100 humans, the gorilla that dies of exhaustion.”
Others are more skeptical. “A mountain gorilla can cut someone into two, you can lift more than 1,800 kilos,” adds a user. “Men overestimate too much,” observes TDF, a creator followed by more than 2 million subscribers in Tiktok. “I am categorical: if the 100 men have no weapons, the gorilla extinguishes them.”
A next video with MRBAST?
Mrbeast, YouTubeur number one, also seized the question. The content creator had fun creating a miniature video that presents 100 men in front of a gorilla, specifying, with humor, that he was looking for “100 volunteers to prove this.”
Given this enthusiasm, Internet users launched $ MVG, a cryptocurrency attached to this already became a meme on the Internet.
In X, many users have pointed out that men were simply not ready to accept their defeat against an animal. “I don’t want to be pool so early, but this debate ‘100 men vs. a gorilla’ highlights pride in the heart of the masculinity of men.”
Tech & co asked the question to Chatgpt. If the Openai AI specifies that, in theory, “100 men could kill a gorilla with naked hands,” depends above all several factors, such as the coordination of the group, the will to risk their life and the place of combat. In addition, this victory would be made at the price “of very likely human losses”, recalls the chatbot.
