I loved this video. To me it seemed like the Dad took his family to the zoo to see the human animals.

AMAZING, thanks for sharing. I'm sure I would have panicked and gone off screaming frightening the gorillas causing my own injury or death. That guy was so cool. I'm sending the link to everyone I know.....thanks again.

That was amazing and the look on the gentleman's face was awesome. I would have had a panic attack for sure! You need to watch gorillas in the mist. that is a great video.

I think it was a chimp that did that. Regardless, this guy was still very brave - although what else could hehave done? I think they were told to not make sudden moves around gorillas - to remain as quiet as possible.

I think I would have "remained quiet" by passing out. haha I caught myself holding my breath every time one of them checked him out. I wonder what a "gorilla kiss" feels like.
