Best Dairy-Free Shortening Shortening is an even fattier form of butter. Where butter is made with about 85 percent fat and 15 percent water, shortening is 100 percent fat.
We are all fascinated by feats of strength and the mystical 1000lb bench/squat/deadlift. How much do you think a full grown male silverback gorilla could lift on these three? Just from some research I've learned that gorillas have the strength of anywhere from 13-27 average men. So I figure the average man can bench perhaps.....120lbs. This puts the gorilla's theoretical bench press at 2000-4000 lbs.
Shabani the gorilla, who grew up in an Australian zoo, has become a heartthrob among women in Japan. The western lowland gorilla was raised at Sydney's Taronga Zoo but moved to Japan in 2007. The 18-year-old silverback with brooding good looks and rippling muscles is causing a stir at the Japanese zoo.
