The internet has been alive with a lively and amusing discussion: can 100 men overcome a single gorilla in a brawl? This peculiar hypothetical has ignited endless debates online — and now, Stephen Colbert has entered the fray.
During a recent episode of The Late Show, Colbert summarized the viral discussion before turning to his aptly named “100 men cam” to speak directly to the hypothetical contestants.
“Hey guys, thanks for pausing your discussions about food being ‘fuel’,” Colbert jested. “I just want to point out that in this gorilla scenario, you’re never going to succeed. Do you know where the phrase, ‘It’s on like Donkey Kong’ comes from? From Mario’s closed casket funeral.”
With his characteristic humor, Colbert made his position clear — and it’s certainly not in favor of the 100 men.
