This is the same mistake many people make when making muscle mass, muscle density, and strength comparisons between the strongman body-type and the bodybuilder body-type.Ī (fat) 160 kg strongman looks to have less muscle mass than a threaded 100 kg bodybuilder. Many people make the mistake of assuming that because brown bears have a lot of fat, it doesn’t have as much muscle, and by extension as much strength, as the leaner gorilla. Even if a grizzly bear is the same weight as a gorilla, it will still have the strength advantage.
The grizzly boar would ruin the silverback gorilla in a complete no-contest. In absolute terms, a 1,500 lb grizzly bear is 40-times stronger than the average man, and 4-times stronger than a 500 lb silverback gorilla.Ī fight between a grizzly boar and silverback gorilla of respectively equal weights (ie 1,500 lbs bear vs 500 lb gorilla), would be like a fight between an adult human and an 8-yo child. In contrast, pound-for-pound the grizzly bear is 4-times stronger than the average man.
In absolute terms, a 500 lb silverback is 10-times stronger than the average man. Pound-for-pound, the silverback is 3-times stronger than the average man. There are a number of reasons why the grizzly boar will murder the silverback gorilla, however I’ll concentrate on one of those reasons, superior strength. A 1,500 lb grizzly boar will beat a 500 lb silverback gorilla several times over.
