  • BOB SAPP Family!!!!!

  • He's so young!  I thought humans were more closely related to Chimps and bonobos.

  • David Attenborough's quite possibly the greatest communicator this world's yet seen. This planet would've been a much darker place without him.

  • Bonobos make me feel even closer, but gorillas are pretty cool too...

  • David Attenborough and Charles Darwin. Two names I always associate with each other.

  • I have more respect for David Attenborough than anyone else on television. He really is such a well-educated, passionate, genuine man.

  • q huevos che! al lado de un gorilla q debe pesar 200 kg o mas

  • How the fuck dares he lay so close to that bad ass big beefcake???? he could break that guy in a second :S

  • @MrBlamemeforit There`s more aggro and danger on the streets of South London.

  • Hey there Ashley, you are right. It takes a legend to play with these gobsmackingly majestic creatures.

  • respect to david. humans are far too violent

  • tu pinchemadre es la mas fea del mundo pendejo

    kreo ke stos animales son mas pinches racionales que tu! retrasad

    aprende a valorar lo ke tienes

    pobre diablo

  • didn't show the part where the gorillas play with him, not many people can say that they have played with wild gorillas.

    what a legend!

  • @ashley92wales that's the scene i was looking for too .. intensely emotional, it's amazing to see so much mutual respect and understanding between attenborough and the gorillas

  • it makes me smile every time, he is such a treasure to britain!

  • Yo no me acercaba a ésos bichos ni harta vino.

  • Comment removed

  • Dave is a fuckin legend!! just after this was filmed he killed the gorillas with his shoelaces!

  • Their eyes show intelligence

  • Your balls are tiny!

  • some of the most amazing footage ever. really counters the stereotype of gorillas as being ignorant, ugly and insensitive.

  • Omg =o amazing =P

  • What year was that taken?

  • The footage is taken from Life on Earth which was first shown in 1979 but the footage was probably taken a year or two before that. Sir David Attenborough an amazingly modest man who has brought us magic moments like these.

  • Thanks

  • Classic television.

  • best Attenborough moment ever and ive been watching his programs for years, one of the greatest series in the world.

  • dude.

  • can anyone see a bbc budget gorilla suit in there? i certainly can't. why fly a crew out to where gorillas actually live then spend money and time on a fake one? lol... don't be silly.

  • I hope not... This is a really special moment itd suck if it was fake. Magnificant creatures.

  • i read in 'radio times' today that one of the gorillas was actually a man in a gorilla suit. they needed him to balance the shot or something. this is not true is it - wtf ???? no sign of it here anyway. DA wouldnt allow that would he. i'll have to read it again to see if they were joking but i dont think they were.

  • i dont wanna start a urban legend so im thinking it was a joke. i must say it was very hard to tell, from the ambiguous way it was written whether they were serious or not. weird

  • One of the best things captured on video ever!

  • Inspiring!
