Description

It is probably scary for most people when a 120 kg Gorilla charges at you. However for those who have a guide with them it is doubly scary as those guides insist on standing their ground. And since we had the cameras and were standing in front our guides put their hands on our shoulders to make sure we didn't move. This adolescent was just trying to show off though, like any human of an equivalent age. Then he sat back in the bamboo bushes for a nice portrait.
