When it comes to attacking you, chimpanzees are even worse than lions. Because a lion would just throw a bite at your neck until it breaks, while a chimp will use his teeth to bite at your face until it gets ripped off, and you’d look like a pile of torn flesh.
Just look what happened to Charla Nash, after she was attacked by her friend’s pet chimp.
When you see a chimp without hair, you realize that those statistics about them being a lot stronger than humans might just be true:
A body that is evolved to climb trees simply requires more upper body strength, you see it in their increased arm length, as well as the long hands and fingers that can create more grip around branches:
And often, they have even more power than you can see. Comparatively to humans, chimps traded off coordination for raw power, giving them a sort of brute strength that is deceiving, even when they already look immensely strong.
Chimps.
Are.
Terrifying.
If you were unarmed and a chimp came after you, it would be a bad day.
