How strong was Jim Jeffries?

When you get a white man with an abundance of fast twitch fibers, it is a sight and joyous wonder to behold, for rarity. The last one was probably Tommy Gunn. Before him came Dempsey and Jeff, possibly a few others. Very rare.

Quarry was also very quick handed.

They say a man would lose to a muzzled chimp not so much because of the strength differential (which would certainly be enough by itself) but because of the completely random and psychotic nature of the chimp's attack. The beast knows your vulnerable spots and will be specifically attacking them. That is the only thing predictable and not random about chimp attacks. They like to rip face, genitals and mitts. They will pull your feengers out by the roots, by buggery!

Baiting at the Paris Garden

Finally, a bucking stallion enters the arena with an ape on its back, and dogs trained to attack the ape are released. This bit of barbarity ends quickly, as the horse is soon exhausted and trips, throwing the ape to the ground, where he is pounced on by the dogs. The ape strangles a dog or two, but in a matter of minutes, he is reduced to a bloody mass.

Their was an older woman who kept a chimpanzee as a pet since it was a newborn. It was tame and sat at the kitchen table to eat. One day the woman’s best friend came over to visit. The chimpanzee turned on her plucking out her eyes, biting off her nose, eating off parts of her body, pulling off her jaw and hands. Stay away from wild animals that are strong enough to tear people apart limb from limb.

Chimps are complex creatures... They can be sociopaths, this has been documented. They can also be altruistic, etc. We don't really know what the relationship was between the woman and chimp. Its hard to assume it was a sudden about face because Chimps, like human beings, and other smart primates act socially in a logical way... they form alliances to benefit each other, etc.

The notion that we as humans keep pets is kind of forebodding. I have noticed that people who have so called wild animals as companions and are succesful, seldom see the animal as a "pet." So, I have seen completely docile large cats, even a pack of Lions, that can scrum with a man they consider part of their pack, and not harm him... By contrast, I had a friend from Ju Jutsu who was insane. The transit police tried to arrest him, he disarmed three of them, and left a few broken bones to boot.

Triggering any creature, man, or beast, is a kind of common denominator. I trained with my friend "Manny" and even a cop who was really strong, really dangerous, but gentle as a kitten because he knew he could break you in two... I always felt it was incumbent on me to know how to act... And I see little difference with a creature that has the potential to do great harm, but is otherwise a great companion.

I have fictionalized animal combat encounters extensively.

- -Sonnyboy, by the time I was 5 I had fictionalized more animal fight than U and U dentures could ever conceive of.

I don't like personal fights because of social and legal repercussions, but I'd knockout a chimp before he ever got started.

It's Quarterwit chumps like U quivering in the fetal position, not me.
