There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

When I tried to take back the stick and the orangutang held on, it is the most insane strength I have ever felt from an animal that size or a fair amount bigger like big dogs 2-3 times heavier. It was like it was semented into a building, I’m not joking it was insane, I’ve been trainig martial arts for years, but that orangutan was probably stronger than me even being a young animal at 20 kg. I also heard from the animal park where I worked a couple years back that 3 men where no match in a thug if war against their 85 kg male Chimpanzee Julius.  

I don’t know how strong they are, but compared to us humans I think people would be shocked about how much stronger they actually are.. no man on the planet neither Daniel Cormier or a roided Jon Jones would stand a chance against an adult Chimpanzee or Orangutan. And gorillas are obviously even much stronger. I think a gorilla is stronger than a big cat at the same size, perhaps equal to a bear.

If this is real deal here, then one example and challenge to any big ape.
