As you please, they (mice and chimps) have borne the brunt of medical experiments during our lifetime and deserve some respect in my opinion. I have had ātalksā with Jeff the chimp in sign language where he told me he wanted to go home. Just writing this memory brought a tears to my eyes. Itās hard for me to imagine that wouldnāt change your perspective had you had that same experience.
So can a human, that's actually the record I believe, for a deadlift.
Yeah, but their cardiovascular endurance would be that of a sedentary human at best. Any significant cardio training would take away the calories that their muscles would need in order to develop that kind of strength. I wouldn't dare put such person on the same level as a chimpanzee.
My choice of weapon would be another chimp that was fond of me. Or perhaps a Silverback.
Yes, your brain. In my somewhat limited experience, If you brandish an object at captive chimps, (I have zero experience with wild chimps) they will attempt to take that object from you. I knew a man named Bob Dunn who was an animal trainer that worked with chimps. He told me a story about brandishing a peacock feather in a confrontation with a chimp because while the chimp realizes that you have a tool, he canāt conceive the efficacy of the tool until he is shown how to use it. I wouldnāt bet my thumbs, nuts, or face on it working but hey, itās better than nothing. Bob had āBubblesā Michael Jacksonās chimp. Bob claimed that Bubbles was the most dangerous chimp he had ever seen. No one but Bob could get near him and even Bob would not dare go into the enclosure with Bubbles. I have personally been manhandled by two 2 year old chimps and I can tell you that even being climbed by one changes your perception of grip strength.
I am, I get to tell animal stories.Yes! But as long as folks are having fun.
Since I'm only getting "transcendent" type of answers, I think I'll rule out melee weapons. This is based on the fact that, just like humans can can trip over things when they're walking and not paying attention, chimps probably have plenty of accidents of their own when swinging branches, and their bodies are likely built to withstand falls from trees. So whacking a chimp with a blunt object isn't likely to help much. It would likely have to be some sort of cutting weapon.
Chimps kill humans, they rip them apart. They also attack gorillas.I'm a bleeding heart, I guess. I can't get past the cruelty to the chimpanzee in any of these comments about pitting humans against them. I'll leave that to the rest of you.

Yeah, with a .375 just like everybody else.
And he doesnāt even know how to fightā¦
Let me rephrase, her technical skills were better than mine, but she wasn't able to tap me, so I guess I didn't lose.
