That silverback easily lifts its own body weight though. Sorry but are you the same guy as Engineeringman0923 from Reddit? He constantly said a man can knock a gorilla unconscious with bare hands, without understanding that gorillas have denser bones compared to humans just like any other animals.

I don´t know what you are talking about with that engineeringman :) I am just curious to find out how much in gorilla strength is myths and where goes reality. Compared to other strong animals. So far I haven´t found anything extraordinary. If you look my previous comments here it should be quite clear how I think about this subject :)

Gorillas are strong, but not as strong as what most people believed though. We have to observe whether a silverback can pull a truck easily or not. Reply
