Robin Williams Meets Koko the Gorilla

This is one of the most priceless videos I have seen in a long time. It's very genuine and remarkable, showing us how alike we are with the primates of the wild. Koko is on amazing gorilla with an absolutely fascinating curiosity and desire to simply have fun, especially when the two have a tickle fight.

Enjoy!!!

Loved it but wish it was longer. He says they talked about a lot of things (including death) but I didn't see that part.

Was Koko laughing? It looked like it. Could have done without the blasted background music. Great video, though - link forwarded to my Dad, who loves that sort of thing. Ta!

shame coco isn't in the wild where gorillas should be but I guess we've fucked up most of the places she should be. Still good to know that Robin had a good time, that's whats important after all

You do realize that this gorilla has done more to foster interest in gorilla welfare, and help and hope for all wild animals than...well...any animal I can think of.

She seems to be quite happy and content, too.

so we need to capture and train animals for people to give a shit about them? Well that's just great isn't it?

Koko was born in captivity at the San Francisco Zoo, she was not "captured". She has never known anything but captivity.

We can't change people, but we can help them see things in different ways. This is one way. I guess if you don't like it you can just pretend it doesn't exist.
