the presumed scenario is nobody leaves the box/stadium/wherever until either the Ape or the 100 are dead.
If we're thrown into a gladiator pit and told to kill it or die, I promise you the ape is dying. Maybe 50 men get beat to death or have near fatal injuries, but apes aren't endurance animals. They're good for quick bursts of violence.
This is the same equivalent of 1 full grown man vs 100 middle school kids. If you think 100 middle school kids can't swarm an adult and kill him, you're stupid.
"No, I can't tell you WHY the hallway chirps. But I can measure it. I can predict the next and following chirp. I have a very good understanding of it and that's good enough for me. I'm not distracted by the philosophical side of WHY the hallway chirps” - Neil “i be fightin that gorilla” DeGrasse Tyson
Don't underestimate the importance of morale. Humans aren't robots, after all. In both hypotheticals, every single messy death would be accompanied by more of the horde breaking away to cower on the edge of the arena.
They were told they'd be killed if they didn't attack? Compared to the sheer, pants-shitting terror of the threat currently towering in front of them, that potential future consequence won't seem near so important as "must get away".
It's very similar to the 100 middle school kids Vs an adult. In that it's not a question of physical capability, it's a question of behavior and ability to cooperate.
Stick 100 strangers together and they are extraordinarily unlikely to have the will or coordination to actually fight together effectively. Divide and conquer is real, and I've seen enough ghetto behavior to know that if 100 black guys were in a life or death situation, 90 of them would turn on each other in an instant.
That gorilla could beat them to death 1 at a time, taking a nice nap every 5 or so, over several days and they still might not manage to organize into large groups willing to fight to the death.
Yeah, when the 1 is just a regular guy. I've seen what happens when the 1 guy draws a gun and they all make the split second decision to flip and throw each other to the wolves to get away faster. Literally dragging each other down for a headstart kinda stuff. And those are guys who knew each other and pre-arranged to fight together.
I figure an enraged gorilla is even more instinctually intimidating than a guy with a gun so there's no way their solidarity with some random strangers will hold up.
In life I would much rather deal with a gorilla than the constant annoyances of niggers. Even a gorilla next door is quieter than a nigger.
If I had to fight them the gorilla would kill me and that's it. Niggers are stupid and lazy. I would tire them out and go one by one. If they did happen to kill me they would rape first and I'd rather just be killed than deal with their nigger faggotry.

How would you feel if you hadn’t had breakfast this morning?

But I *chirp* did have breakfast.

Muscle fatigue plays a role in every altercation, though.

Black guys absolutely love 5v1 fights that end with concrete head stomping.

Have you seen how africans hunt animals? Horde mentality.
Both situations I would take the gorilla.

Gorilla reservoir next door will most likely even increase your property value.
Middle school kids? I always heard that as 100 toddlers vs a grown man.
