Note to self: never let your child pound their chest at a gorilla when it’s just glass between you and the gorilla. The family (understandably) fled when the glass cracked.
“Oh man!” the person recording said.
The individual who uploaded the video described the incident on Reddit as “a three inch piece of glass between life & death.” According to the person, the scene unfolded Thursday at the Henry Doorly Zoo.
Shortly before this we were telling the kids they could not break it [the glass]. They will never believe us again,” the individual wrote.
This is not the first time a gorilla has slammed on the glass at the Nebraska zoo. Other videos online show a gorilla scaring zoo visitors through similar antics.
At the time of publication, the video had just over 4,000 views on YouTube.
