There's a tameable mechanical gorilla (A-ME-02) at the very back of a cave in Ungoro crater. It's an elite mob that scales to the player's level, so it's a little tricky to tame as a pet.

1:17 “I hate every ape I see, from chimpan-A to chimpanzee”

I imagine Grong is also a reference Gorilla Grodd from DC comics. There's also a hidden city of intelligent gorillas in DC comics as well.

Ya know what, #1 is far more appropriate than just being a Gorilla thinking he's a monkey. The quest in Silithus that's involved with speaking to the Dwarfs and learning about him start talking about how they had a Night Elf Priestess with them, the wife of the lead Night Elf Commander in Cenarion Hold. They were trying to investigate whatever they could about Ahn'Qiraj, and the Silithid hives in the surrounding area. And this is where we get a small hinting at our first exposure to Old Gods because the Dwarfs mention that eventually Natalia (NE Priestess) suddenly goes a bit insane and attacks them after they find a crystal of sorts. She was trying to kill the Dwarfs and take back what they found. But then Glibb apparently jumped on her face and started banging on her head and whatnot, fighting her off, and she's eventually forced to retreat, running directly to the hive they just escaped from and it confused the Dwarfs that the Silithids didn't attack her. She looked too long at the rune covered Crystal, and became the first character ingame that got corrupted by an Old God. And lorewise, nobody (or nobody we could talk with at the time) even knew C'Thun was a thing. He's been imprisoned in AQ for however many years, his influence on the Qiraji has built them up as a substantial force waiting behind the gates, and the Silithids were progressively leaking out all over Southern Kalimdor, becoming a massive problem. But for all the Cenarion Circle knew, that was the work of the Twin Emperors and General Rajaxx. Nobody, not even the Bronze Dragons, knew they were C'Thun's servants and that he was just chilling under house arrest at the bottom of the Temple. The only hint we got was Natalia being corrupted, and saying C'Thun's name on her death, which was a big unknown of gibberish at the time. So whatever C'Thun's big major plan was in trying to corrupt a Night Elf Priestess that happened to be the wife of the leader of his current biggest opposition of forces in the Cenarion Hold... It was foiled by 'the damn monkey'. Glibb effectively put a halt to an Old God's schemes. _(Not that Old Gods were a particularly thought out concept at the time, so its pretty underwhelming in hindsight, but at the time it was cool!)_

When you started talking about Gargantua I was like "Yo am I about to see Crendor talk about the 15th century french novel Gargantua written by Rabelais?"

Crendor can we get a pointless top 10 goblins?

I love that the gorillas in Un'Goro drop barrels (as loot) -- dorkiest donkey kong reference in the game.

My hunter used to have a mechanical gorilla as a pet. I named it Harambot.

Wow gorillas are actually really weird if you think about it. In real life humans and gorrilas are closely related bc of our relatively recent common primate ancestor, however in wow humans are robots turned into flesh by shadow magic. So despite appearing as if they should be as related to humans in the game as they are in real life, there about as closely related to the humans in wow as we in real life are to bacteria on mars. So they just evolved all these similar features completely independently, which in and of itself sounds weird but if you think about that loads of stuff in wow seems to evolve into a guy, from elementals of all kinds to energy beings everything in wow seems to default to human shape kind of like how crabs keep evolving in the real world.

This implies that if you take the data from Azeroth and Earth, that Zoidberg is the prime lifeform. I love it.

I mean if you're factoring in evolution, you have to explain how sapient life formed at all considering the vast number of apex predators that both pre-exist and continue to exist on Azeroth. Like I don't care how tough trolls are, if there are carnivorous dinosaurs around, you are not building giant empires as an approximately human sized creature.

Fun fact about King Mukla, there was an expansion this year that festured different music genres for each class, and hunter got country music, and their legendary was called Mister Mukla, playing a banjo I think

I knew exactly what music you meant from the Simpsons' Dr. Zaius bit!

I believe Amy is a reference from the movie called Congo it's from 1995 The main gorilla Amy has a robotic sign language armband helps her speak with everyone

100% correct, the title of the quest is also a reference to Chasing Amy, a film by Kevin Smith

Oh hey I suggested this one a while back, glad to see it. Good choices here, haven't seen some of these guys before. I had a weird fascination with WoW gorillas as a kid so I got a soft spot for them. Tsul'Kalu was one of my favorites.

hi crendor!!! fun fact! the "giblets" with turkeys you mentioned is accurate, but a horrifying fact i discovered with my grandma recently: that actually meant she was preparing a side/gravy with the turkey's heart and gizzard and liver/"unuseables" and such, but just told me it was the "neck thing turkeys have" when i was young so i would eat it. i hope i don't ruin thanksgiving gravy for you!! cheers!

Making use of the entire animal is a good thing though. And it's still good eating. Grandma got it right 👍

This may be the most important Top 10 you've ever done.

Number 7, those were my first (one of) experience with skull/?? lvl mobs. Terrified me as a kid and probably is why I'm not fond of irl gorillas now.

The Ame-01 quest is also a reference to "Chasing Amy", a movie not from 2001 but 1997.

When I hear Dr Zaius, I too think of that Simpsons song

Love a new crendor top 10 while sitting at work!

I was soooo terrified of King Mukla when I first discovered him as an under levelled noob. He seemed like the biggest thing in the game 😂

Mock (the) Savage is almost certainly a nod to Doc Savage, an old hero of adventure stories that took place in the jungle.

That beautiful white gorilla (mokk the savage) my hunter still has him he is sitting in his stable slot. I love that gorilla! Oh wait, there's another white gorilla Uhk'loc in the gorilla cave in Ungoro crater! I remember taming him back in 2005, lol. Love that gorilla.

Hearthstone also has Mister Mukla, which is Mukla playing a guitar!

Crendor is the most pointful person still playing WoW

Arrrrr....the inclusion of the Gorilla's and their Aged Gorilla Sinew brought back some very old yet "great" memories. Been there.....done that...those Elder Mistvale Gorilla's deserve their place on this list. Kind of a little sad that the Sinew is no longer in the game (other than still being in Classic), but I will still have the memories of massacre with my roommates of the time. Took us HOURS, and then I did it again of three other characters. Arrr those there the days.

For me its the Hairless Stormwind Gorillas.

I had no idea those two giant gorillas were in STV.

Aaaaaannnnd another banger lezzz go 😂😂

The thing about King Mukla and that silly quest is that saving Princess Poobah gave you the "Princess Poobah's Tiara" item, which is one of the few head-pieces in the game that can be worn without it interfering with your character's hair-style. There are some bandanas and such that I think do the same thing, but the "tiara" has a clearly metallic appearance and works well with characters who wear mail or plate.

You forgot the biggest Gorilla: The level 32 Orc Hunter joining your Gnomeregan Dungeon, finally teleporting to you after questing for another 35 minutes while you were waiting for him - just to realize he forgot to buy arrows and for some reason has his hearthstone set to Tanaris kekw

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

My hunger for pointless top 10 content is endless.

The most number 1 ever

This is weird I tamed 2 of these yesterday on my Hunter 😫

Nice

A-Me was always my favorite, I LOVE the movie Congo and when I saw this in game I freaked out.

The intro gets faster each time Crendor uploads.

This is the top 1 of all pointless top 10s

I don't even play WoW but I love these top 10s. It's great just learning cool random lore! Very relaxing 😎

So what you're saying is, monke.

my low level hunters name is Branbronzen, like from the halls of stone computer boss. his pets name is Glubb. the only low level red gorilla was a rare in stranglethorn so i appreciated number one.

The A-ME 01 quest is different these days. Now you have to fix her with coconut oil and they've cut out the escort mission as A-ME wants to stay with the other gorillas.

here to comment cause Crendor said so

Wow great video haha jk still watching 😅

What comes around gorilarounds.

As soon as you said zayas i said dr zayas dr zayas from the simpsons song lmao

Dude, that shit was nae nae

MUCK-LA?

at 7:05 one might think " oh, a shitty wow object collision ..." Wrong, dumaas! he s a frikin spirit! he can go through stuff, stoopid! DUH!

Top ten: hardcore classic ways to die

Pointless top 10 Scariest/Creepiest Npc model ?

Giblets is pronounced with a soft g - ie. Jiblets

didnt even put the random ghostly gorilla in nazmir:/

Yo Crendor, it's legit pronounced Jiblet, not how you pronounce it. This isn't even some gif/jif sort of thing. Just a heads up.

Next do top 10 trolls in wow.. By trolls, i mean characters who troll everyone, not voljin

If theyre like ex-gorillas, what are they now?
