    An adult gorilla's upper body strength is six times more powerful than that of an adult human - enabling them to lift, break, and squeeze heavy objects

        He would get teared limb from limb. Gorilla's arms are hugely powerful.

        And thats a average gorilla. Mountain gorillas are the most powerful and the Silverback is the most powerful of them.

        Tyson wanted to fight the Silverback, he would have taken a beaten.

        Often when you browse the net for information about Gorillas or check books about them, you will find differing ideas on how strong they are. I's probably true that there has been no study undertaken to determine their strength, but yet different sources have different estimates. A Gorilla book that I have at home says that they are 4-8 times stronger than the average man. The "Animal face off" show said that scientist estimate that the strength of a 400 pound Silverback Gorilla is 20 times our own (I think this is a more accurate estimate). Nigel Marvin, the zoologist who starred in the "Chased by Dinosaurs" and "chased by Sea Monsters" documentaries (among many others about modern day animals) stated that they where 5 times stronger than a human. The show "The Most Extreme" on animal planet did a show about the 10 strongest animals in the world, and it stated (and illustrated using computer graphics) that if a human where as strong as a Gorilla, he or she would be able to lift 4,600 pounds above his head, about the weight of 2 cars. Though that show had errors (Tigers where placed higher in the category than Brown Bears, yet in reality Bears are pound for pound stronger than Big cats, depending on amount of body fat) the claim that Gorillas can lift well over two tons above their head was demonstrated in a children's book that I found in a Library, and it seemed to hint that Gorillas have the strength of 8 heavyweight olympic weight lifters!

              Well what if Tyson kicked the gorilla in the nuts. The gorilla would then be bent over and then Tyson could give the gorilla an uppercut which would knock the goriilla out.

                  What are you laughing at .Its a good point Tyson had the hardest uppercut ever. The gorilla would feel like he had been hit by a comet. No one can withstand Tysons power.

                      Didn't he fight Bruno twice? The zoo keeper must have been off those days.
