This time the gorillas have friends. 100 gorillas could definitely kill an unarmed dude. Actually one Dunbar number of gorillas vs one Dunbar number of humans

This time the gorillas have friends. 100 gorillas could definitely kill an unarmed dude.
Actually one Dunbar number of gorillas vs one Dunbar number of humans could be a good spin on this meme.
- thrownblown 2y ago100 gorillas could definitely kill the most well armed dude
- thaumasiotes 2y agoArmaments have a pretty high top end. If I'm armed with a missile-launching submarine, I'm confident that 100 gorillas will never be able to touch me.
- BobaFloutist 2y agoI think they were probably limiting armaments to things you could carry in your arms. Which would make it a lot harder.
- bee_rider 2y agoI could carry a bicycle, a backpack of bullets, and some kind of rifle… I think it really depends on the specifics of the scenario (how far apart do we start and is it flat ground?)
- bee_rider 2y agoWe’d have to set some bounds here. I think one guy would have trouble operating a submarine. Tanks are typically crewed of course… but in theory, a guy could patiently go around and man every station… I wonder if 100 sufficiently motivated gorillas could damage a tank from the outside.
- thaumasiotes 2y agoIf you want to consider armaments that are routinely crewed by one guy, a bomber will have the same property of being easily capable of killing all 100 gorillas at the same time that they lack the ability to even try to attack it.
- bee_rider 2y agoYah. My main answer is a man on a bicycle with a rifle and a backpack full of bullets. Somehow having a powered vehicle seems against the spirit of the thing, although really is it just a fundamentally silly topic anyway!
