The simple question has left Twitter and TikTok communities divided in recent days, even making headlines in mainstream news. It has also caught the attention of wildlife experts, with fight simulations going viral. Despite the overwhelming number of men involved, many believe a gorilla’s sheer strength could overpower them, making it an intriguing debate.

In a recent appearance on SiriusXM Radio, Chase Briscoe candidly admitted that 100 clones of himself wouldn't stand a chance against a gorilla. However, if he were part of a 100-man team, he believes the primate could be taken down. The #19 Joe Gibbs Racing driver named WWE star Brock Lesnar and MMA fighters Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz as some of his top picks for the squad.

The 30-year-old joked that he’d gladly be the 100th guy, likely having nothing left to do in the fight. He humorously added that if all the "crazy good fighters" got wiped out, he wouldn’t stand a chance either.

"If it's a 100 of me, NO! Like if it's me and 99 others, I feel pretty confident that we could probably do it. I'm gonna pick Brock Lesnar, Conor McGregor, Nate Diaz. I'm going to pick all the [crazy] good fighters. I'll be the 100th guy that gets to take him, and if they get wiped out, then obviously I know I'm going with them... Hopefully, I can be the 100th guy and I ain't got to do nothing." Briscoe said.

The #19 Joe Gibbs Racing driver suggested he could take on filming duties as the 100th guy, recording the action from a safe distance.

"I'll be the film guy. People are going to want to get this on video. So I'll film it in the back. Yeah, I can just do that," he added.

In a recent interview on NBC, Dr. Tara Stoinski, who has spent 20 years studying the apes, settled the debate. She suggested that 100 men would be more than enough to defeat the gorilla. Given the position he prefers among those men, Chase Briscoe would probably emerge unscathed in such a fight.
