Default Wrestle With A Gorilla? Is It Safe?

Okay. My manager has come up with the screwiest idea for a wrestling match I have ever seen, and I thought I had seen them all!

Evidently, I am being offered a huge amount of money to go fly to the Isla de la Muerte and compete in a wrestling match, in a bikini. That, in itself, is not bad, but it is my opponent I am concerned about. A gorilla!!!

My manager has assured me that the gorilla has been trained not to bite, his nails have been trimmed to negate any scratching, and he knows to let go when tapped on the shoulder by a referee. My manager said this has been done with 2 male wrestlers already, with no injuries, althouugh "George" the gorilla has won both matches. So...supposedly...I would be "safe", if you can call climbing in the ring for 30 minutes with a gorilla safe!

I do trust my manager, but I am not sure I trust him THIS much! What do you think? It is a huge amount of money. Should I do it?
























Yeah. Okay. it is April 1st. Happy April Fool's Day!!!

No you shouldn't fucking do it. Are you touched?

He hasn't killed two guys on "Isla de la Murte" which I thought only existed in the Pirates of the Carribean movie or something so it's probably safe?

IT'S A FUCKING GORILLA. It's not Gorilla Monsoon, it's a primate beast.

What the fuck.....

Male Gorilla or Female Gorilla? Just sayin...


I guess I'm on the defense too much today since it's April 1st to believe anything, but since I don't know you or your sense of humor very well, I guess I'll consider it a real proposition. Don't do it. Gorilla's are immensely strong. Trained or not, that thing could kill you like a bug.

That said... If you do it, take and post pictures.

Really Johnny, again? Send an American woman to South America to wrestle 30 minutes with a gorilla? Oh in a bikini none the less. There would be no wrestling, a gorilla could snap her like a twig.

I call April fool shenanigans. BTW Isla de la Muerte is translated to island of death.

Listen to the audio clip below. In Canada wrestlers DID wrestle with Bears.

I even saw one at our local fair when I was a teenager.

ONTARIO - Terrible Ted the battling bear - Radio - CBC Archives

I'm kinda with BigL on this one being it's April 1st.

It's amazing how someone so good at poker could be so gullable.
