Internet Frenzy Over Who Would Win: Silverback Gorilla or 100 Men?

The internet is a weird and wonderful place, where content sometimes goes viral for no apparent reason at all. The latest discussion brewing online has folks arguing over the hypothetical matchup between a silverback gorilla and 100 men—talk about a bizarre debate!

So, was I surprised when I saw this online brawl? Not really. The internet, filled with endless mysteries and memes, keeps us all entertained with unexpected twists and turns.

One Twitter user, @DreamChasnMike, set off the debate with the statement, "I think 100 gentlemen could beat 1 gorilla everybody just gotta be dedicated to the shit." And now, with over 281 million views, the Internet has erupted.

But Buck Sexton has got to be the most delusional of them all. Sure, we love ya, Buck, but don't lose your marbles here.

Let's break it down. The average adult male gorilla—specifically a silverback— weighs approximately 400 pounds and can effortlessly lift up to 1,800 pounds due to the strength of ten men. Its bite force rivals a grizzly bear (up to 1,300 PSI), and it's as stubborn as someone who's had enough of your nonsense before you even try anything.

Underestimating the beast would be a grave mistake. Most humans have never been in a real fight, and a large portion would likely panic or flee at the first chest beat. Even if they stood their ground, they'd be no match for the silverback's brutal power.

What, you think a group of untrained men would fare better against a trained gorilla? There's a reason they're the kings of the jungle! These beasts are built for survival in the wild, honed by millions of years of evolution. They don't play around, and they don't back down.

Now, let's imagine the 100 men are all Navy SEALs. Perhaps they might have a better chance, coordinating their attacks, surrounding the silverback, and rotating attackers—but it'd still be a grueling and brutal battle. And they'd risk sustaining life-threatening injuries or even death.

But what do internet folk care? Someone had to up the ante. Could 200 men take down a polar bear?

Ugh, folks, just step off already! A polar bear is an apex predator, as deadly as it gets in the Arctic wilderness. They can quickly spot their prey from miles away, and their powerful sledhammer paws are equipped with built-in knives. Unlike gorillas, polar bears are solitary hunters, always on the hunt for their next meal. They don't bluff or posture; they just kill.

So, my friends, remember this the next time you see a silly debate on the internet that makes no sense: we've come a long way from philosophizing over the soul and the meaning of life. We're now debating the strength of primates and polar bears in imaginary showdowns. Embrace the cultural evolution—it's crazy, but it's a heck of a lot more fun!

Misadventures, Feline Friends, and a Fortune:

  • I'm back for another Mammoth March this weekend, hiking 20 miles through Fall Creek Falls State Park, Tennessee. I didn't train much for it, but I think I'll make it, thanks to my previous 20-mile hike in Alabama going pretty well. However, my feet got the worst blisters of my life, so I'm planning to change my socks halfway through. Sending out all the good vibes on Sunday—not sure how to do that, but you'll figure it out!
  • My husband and I decided to leave our new kitty with a pet sitter while we're away, choosing a family with excellent reviews. We worry that he'll annoy the heck out of the sitter as he suffers from separation anxiety. Poor thing was in a shelter before we rescued him, so I don't want him to think he's being abandoned again.
  • After Shedeur Sanders was finally drafted, it was reported that he celebrated at a nightclub with some rappers and a Louis Vuitton suitcase containing $100K. But his big brother, Deion Sanders Jr., hopped on Twitter to set the record straight: It wasn't $100K in cash; it was actually $1 million.

Two questions: 1) Who takes a suitcase full of cash to a party? 2) Is there room in that Louis Vuitton for a friend like me?

Eli Ricks and Ivanka Trump: A Confusing Connection

While everyone was caught up in the drama about Eagles players visiting the White House, cornerback Eli Ricks was busy daydreaming about… Ivanka Trump. Poor guy doesn't stand a chance—she's married to Jared Kushner, and they have three kids together.

But hey, if a guy wants to shoot his shot, let him give it a try! Maybe he'll hit a home run or strike out—either way, it's all part of the game of life.

Speaking of games, C.J. Gardner-Johnson revealed why he didn't attend the White House visit. Spoiler alert: No one actually asked him!

Diplo's Speed Fuel

When we talk about enhancing performance, we usually don’t consider LSD. But that's not the case with DJ and producer Diplo. He recently revealed on the TSL Time podcast that he occasionally turns to LSD during marathons to help him push through the mental and physical challenges.

Even though there is some science suggesting that micro-dosing could improve mood, focus, and endurance, doing a bit more than that during a marathon raises a lot of questions—especially about staying on the course with imaginary purple dinosaurs!

Stay tuned, Diplo! Maybe I'll call you ahead of my big 20-mile hike this weekend. I could really use some guidance!

Brady Cook on Cloud Nine

University of Missouri QB Brady Cook signed with the New York Jets after going undrafted, and he and his fiancée, Carli, threw a celebratory champagne bash as if he'd already secured the Super Bowl. Given the Jets' quarterback situation in recent years, it seems they might just be onto something!

Back to Carli—why on earth are you spraying champagne into the pool? You're outside, Carli, just spray it on the ground! Our chemist-husband would have a fit if we messed up the pool chemistry like that.

My husband loves rinsing off his lotion before getting into the hot tub, too. I guess you could say we're a high-maintenance couple!

So there you have it—another week of odd news and hilarious hijinks! Stay tuned for more chaos, folklore, and pure, unfiltered internet entertainment!

Hikes, Kitty Cuddles, and Lucky Bucks:

  • This weekend, I'll be hiking 20 miles through Fall Creek Falls State Park in Tennessee. Despite not preparing much for it, the 20-mile hike I did a couple of weeks ago went well, with only a few blisters. However, those blisters were the worst of my life, so I'm going to swap socks halfway through this time. Let's send some positive vibes my way on Sunday!
  • My husband and I decided to leave Rocky, our new kitty, with a Rover sitter while we go on this hike. They have great reviews, so I'm not worried about his safety, but I am worried that he'll drive the sitter crazy with his separation anxiety. Poor guy was in a noisy shelter before we took him in, so I don't want him to think he's being abandoned.
  • After Shedeur Sanders finally got drafted, it was reported that he celebrated with some rappers and a Louis Vuitton suitcase filled with $100K. But his big brother, Deion Sanders Jr., took to Twitter to clear things up: It wasn't $100K in cash; it was actually $1 million.

Two questions: 1) Who shows up to a party with a suitcase full of cash? 2) Can that guy be my friend, too?

Eli Ricks' Odd Crush

The Eagles' drama about visiting the White House has everyone talking, but cornerback Eli Ricks has been focusing on someone entirely different—the First Daughter, Ivanka Trump.

Unfortunately for Eli, Ivanka is married to Jared Kushner, and they have three kids together.

But hey, if guys are arguing about fighting gorillas and polar bears, it's not that far-fetched for someone to have a crush on the president's daughter, right? Shoot for the stars, Eli!

By the way, Deion Sanders Jr. also hopped on Twitter to clear up some confusion about Shedeur's party: It wasn't $100K in the Louis Vuitton suitcase; it was actually $1 million.

Diplo's Unconventional Running Technique

DJ and producer Diplo recently revealed on the TSL Time podcast something that we don't usually associate with marathon runners—LSV trips. Turns out he occasionally uses LSD to help him navigate the mental and physical challenges of long-distance races.

Some scientists argue that micro-dosing psychedelics could improve mood, focus, and endurance by reducing the perception of effort and pain. But Diplo didn’t exactly seem to be micro-dosing during his interviews, raising questions about the feasibility and legality of his technique.

Here's to hoping that the LSD transformed Diplo into a superhuman runner, because I think I need all the help I can get for my upcoming 20-mile hike. Partying with purple dinosaurs sounds like a lot more fun than training!

Brady Cook Joins the Jets

University of Missouri QB Brady Cook signed with the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent over the weekend, and he and his fiancée, Carli, couldn't contain their excitement. They toasted to his new opportunity as if he'd already won the Super Bowl.

While the Jets' quarterback situation is dire, Eric Adams—former safety and serial entrepreneur—insists that Brady could potentially become the team's starter. One has to wonder: Will Brady's enthusiasm for his new opportunity translates into real results on the field?

As for Carli, she got carried away with the champagne, dousing the pool with it—which I wouldn't recommend, as our self-proclaimed chemist-husband would have a fit if the water's balance got thrown off.

Side Bits

  • I'm participating in the Mammoth March this weekend, hiking 20 miles through the scenic Fall Creek Falls State Park in Tennessee. Despite not being fully prepared, the previous 20-miler in Alabama went well, but I did get some seriously painful blisters. In an effort to prevent repeat misery, I'll be changing my socks partway through the hike. Wish me luck!
  • With the Mammoth March taking place two hours away from our home, my husband and I have decided to leave Rocky—our newly adopted kitten—with a Rover sitter. While we've selected a well-reviewed family, we still worry that he'll annoy them with his separation anxiety.
  • When Shedeur Sanders finally got drafted over the weekend, it was reported that he celebrated with some rappers and a Louis Vuitton suitcase full of $100K in cash. But his brother, Deion Sanders Jr., wanted to clear up the confusion on Twitter: It wasn't exactly $100K; it was actually $1 million.

Two questions: 1) How strange is it to show up to a party with a suitcase full of cash? 2) Could you picture yourself becoming friends with someone like that?

The Sanders Family Celebrates Draft Night

Shedeur Sanders, having just been drafted by the New York Jets, celebrated in a manner that was nothing short of extravagant. Together with some rappers and a Louis Vuitton suitcase filled with a mammoth wad of cash, he rang in this new chapter in his life.

But you wanna know the real craziest part? It wasn't even $100K in the suitcase—it was actually $1 million!

According to Deion Sanders Jr., who took to Twitter to clear things up, the proper numbers were $1 million in cash and no Louis Vuitton suitcase. Proving yet again that money can't buy taste, but it sure can buy a fancy Louis Vuitton suitcase!

Harry Styles' Style Evolution

Harry Styles recently dropped his latest collection with Gucci, featuring a number of standout looks that showcase his flair for reinventing himself. Designer Alessandro Michele dished on the inspiration behind the stunning outfit inspired by a techno-dystopian future, while Styles was equally evasive about plans for his upcoming album.

For now, we'll just have to be satisfied with marveling at the sheer genius of Styles' fashion choices.

Viva la Harry!

Matcha Shimmy

If you thought the silk shimmy was the craziest thing to come out of the Instagram world, wait until you see the matcha shimmy! In this wild dance trend, people drink matcha tea while boogying down—because what's more relaxing than drinking green tea and dancing like a buffoon?

It may just be the next addition to my list of absurd social media trends. Along with cookies incorporated into a dance, the dolphin pose dance, and the ever-popular TikTok audition fail montage, these trends are evidence that creativity really knows no bounds on the internet.
