- Jambo the Gorilla shot to international fame in 1986 when a five-year-old boy fell into the gorilla enclosure at the Jersey Zoo and lost consciousness. Jambo stood guard over the boy while he was unconscious, placing himself between the boy and other gorillas.

He later stroked the unconscious boy. When the boy regained consciousness and started to cry, Jambo and the other gorillas retreated, and an ambulance man and two keepers rescued the boy.
This film tells us the full story of the Jersey Zoo gorilla family, including dramatic pictures of Jambo guarding the boy and how he was rescued.

RIP HARAMBE
These gorillas are loving, they have relationships with their keepers, they have conscience. God please protect the gorillas of the world. Amen
This is not Harambe.
@@dante_f4563 yes I know it is not Harambe I'm saying that in general, viewing it reminded me of Harambe and how he did not need to die
And I worked at a zoo this summer in the congo gorilla forest classroom with exclusive access to gorilla viewing windows
@@Jada_Elana Oh ok, and also congrats on working at the zoo, its something i would like to try in my future.
@@dante_f4563 you should try, you never know! They have a lot of programs, volunteer opportunities to get your foot in the door, different departments always check the careers section also they said if you have volunteered at animal shelters that's a plus I was with the education dept but like I said they have so much they even have master's programs I dont know where you are located but I was at with wcs
Gorillas represent us in so many ways. They can be violent as well as gentle. They can act like a mob when they want but can also be thoughtful and insightful. They can show great compassion when something tugs at their heartstrings, but can also coldly reject someone that’s different.
Just like us
Sounds like humans
No, gorillas are not violent or aggressive unless absolutely necessary, and even then it is for display of strength rather than actually attacking. Humans are different. We are violent and aggressive just for power, greed and selfishness. Gorillas are far better than us even though we share over 98% of their genes.
Between this and harambe and people still believe they are aggressive. I don’t think I would fear a gorilla unless it was provoked. It’s not a bear. They are incredibly intelligent.
Harambe was sitting with the child between his legs. Harambe probably wondered: "Is someone going to come and get him?" Then Harambe was shot dead.
@@denisenoe3702 Harambe was dragging the boy through the water lol
@@iRahz. He was trying to get the little creature from one place to another.
@@iRahz. and?
@@denisenoe3702ppl screamed and threw rocks at harmabe. Gorillas can be aggressive, but most of the time it’s whatever with them. Majority time it’s because their provoked or their children might be in danger and so there territorial
This guy got lucky, the crowd wasn't as agitated
Im 40 seconds in and already feel like shedding a tear.
Most suposedly dangerous animals aren't a threat unless provoked. Not to sound like a hippy but humanity doesn't respect life. so we get dealt with accordingly.
You don’t sound like a hippy, you’re talking facts.
Your out of your mind if you think this is true. People think animals are friendly because you see cases of this from time to time, an animal helping a human. Go spend some time walking around, minding your own business, in any area that has “supposedly dangerous animals” and see how long you last. If a wild gorilla feels threatened it will kill you. They don’t even eat meat and they will kill you. This captive gorilla has a bunch of ladies and babies and all the food he could ever want. Why would he hurt a tiny lifeless child that in no way could hurt him? Why do wild gorillas interact with humans in the wild without ripping them apart? It’s because they are King Shit of Turd Mountain.
Jason Blaha Are you kidding? Many wild animals do not kill for fun. Either to sharpen their skills or for sustenance. Nature is hardly personal, everything’s just doing what they think they gotta do to survive. However, that’s not to say nature is as friendly folks make it out to be. Part of the reason people like nature so much is because we cleared out most of the dangerous animals that’d take pleasure tearing us a new asshole which why people can enjoy those hiking and skiing trips.
What an idiot lmao
Spot on
And as a reward he was given the most noble name they could think of
Jambo even has an in loving memory bronze statue in the zoo he lived in made in his honor for this deed, but they auctioned it away. Shame.
He change people’s perspective on gorillas from savage beats to gentle giants R.I.P Jambo I hope god gave you a special place
Ironically the onlookers appear to be initially trying to scare him off. When the reality is he's actually shielding that child from the others.
Trying to scare a gorilla off like a bear will provoke it. Idiots
Bad parenting
Not the first time
TheDissmaster10 not really, I mean you can’t keep your eye on your child 24 seven,
Ronnie Hopper Yh but they were Letting him walk along a wall of a gorilla enclosure
Alanna Bored If you have more than one child, I hate to break it to you but you only have two pairs of eyes, unfortunately for humans not a single one of them on the back of our heads, The mother was looking at other child who was coughing a little boy fell in
Alanna Bored basically this is a long-winded way of saying shit happened
It always amazes me the size of a Silverback all muscle good looking animal
This is what people were doing during this incident:
20% were panicking
80% taking videos and pictures
Well I ain't about to jump in there and fend of an angry silverback.
Yea cuz u would go dwn there and be a hero shut ur ass
One punch from a gorilla that big and you can cancel Christmas bruh!! Aint nobody jumping in that bitch.
@@cannibalisticunderwear9243 The silver back wasn't in the least bit angry. He wasn't even agitated. He was curious. Do you think those guys are just angry, savage beasts that go around looking to attack something all the time??? Cuz they're not like that at all.
@@adrunkgorillawithalobotomy353 I know they're gentle creatures but they can easily kill you with one punch so it's best not to provoke them. Being in their territory can provoke them. Provoking means make it angry. Learn the difference between a statement and a joke.
r.i.p. hambre
hambre?
That's what I thought! So sad 😯
no. just no.
@@shewantthem.d.2243 chill out
And Jambo Too!
He looks so wise!
Rest in peace, Harambe.
This ain’t harambe
Good looking man very bright and smart animals best wishes to everyone I. The troops go have some fun thanks jambo. Joe
Came to the comment section for harambe comments and I was not disappointed
Kerchak will always be remembered🥰
RIP♥️
If you know, you know😜
If only humans were as gentle
Magnificent creature! ❤🙊
i like what durrell saidabout giving the animals space to be themselves. is it even possible in these places
Gorillas look scary but they're so mild mannered. They're not like chimps. They don't kill. I'm glad the world is starting to understand them better. Hopefully one day apes won't be in zoos.
They’re literally the closest living ancestors to the human being, so I’d be really surprised if he wasn’t protective towards the boy.
Actually bonobos are
And chimps come second
Male gorillas are very friendly with baby gorillas, even if they arent theirs, maybe its a similar case
Chimps are very aggressive and closer to humans. Bonobos are very gentle animals and the closest to humans.
Chimps and Bonobos are the closest human relatives
A brother of harambe has come
2:46 Focus on the background
And,...
its amazing that were related to these animals
It's saddening knowing how so many people deny that. I'm proud to consider myself among the hominids.
Are*
Yep, we are like them a Great Ape. It's like Wolves and Coyotes are both Canids both different kinds but Canids all the same.. just stupid how people deny our blood relation to them (to the grollias not the Canids even though all 5 ditget animals are related to a distant extant).
Beautiful animals
I'm from Jersey. I vaguely remember this happening at Jersey Zoo 1986. Jambo became famous for protecting the child.
Jambo is the reason the kid made it out at all
First four words of the video description gave me a small heart attack for a sec lmao
Wow he's a big silverback
❤jambo rest in peace
Good lad, a dad's instinct.
Rip Harambe
fascinating creature
Jambo should join the justice league . He's my hero.
you mean hamabe league
I just love them
OMG the Gorilla was Swiss! No wonder he stayed neutral.
No one ever falls into the penguin exhibit
Jambo gets to live but harambe dosen't
his keepers were smarter...they took the trouble to understand him..thats what t roubled me about Harambe's case..he was in that zoo since he was 4 and he was killed at 17. Didnt they understnd that poor gentle giant allthose years..didnt they learn anything...what a stupid waste of life esp since theyre so endangered
Moey 2moey exactly. not even a needle. he didnt need it...He was actually protecting the boy. They should have shot the man who shot him , real idiot...its always these gentle creatures who suffer...
jessie james Unfortunately, he was putting the boy in danger, whether he meant to or not.
I doubt he had any intention of hurting the child (it would have been over real quick if he had), but he didn't know his own strength. He was also defensive and getting agitated by the crowd screaming at him, which is why he dragged the kid around, and why it ended that way.
In this video, the crowd is much quieter, so Jambo was calm. It would have taken too long to sedate Harambe, and also may have agitated him even more.
exactly
jessie james He most certainly was not "protecting" the boy as Jambo was. He could clearly be seen dragging the child throughout the enclosure and the zookeepers were worried it could have led to serious injuries. Whether or not Harambe would have significantly injured the child or posed a serious risk is hypothetical, but the chance could not be taken.
Heartening ⭐️
Amazing/Awesome creatures.
He was only trying to help the little kid. Okay?
Conall Ó hÓbáin yo, shut up
Shut up u you fuck
@@hawaiianrainbowman7187 He was.
gaming master45 learn how to use cuss words first
I dont care
Where is the zookeeper ?
*Okay but how the Hell did the kid even freaking fall in?*
Back then the bars were really low so it’s quite easy to get past i love where this incident was from and now they’re very secure compared to then
Today I learned that he is NOT 'JAM-BOW' he's 'YAM-BOW'!
And this is how Tarzan is born
too bad he died in 1992 :( R.I.P. I fell tragic for him! :(
Are you talking about Harambe?
So good this hairy monkey clown died in 1992
@@nevajno2741 things people will say at your funeral
It's out of this world!
This was before the great ape accident(harambae death) but it was recommended to me now
God bless all animals!
Freaking strong!
So gentle
Intelligent animals
How I feel I look when my sinuses act up @2:16
Absolutely gorgeous gentle giant. Uses his utterly terryfying strength to protect an injured tiny boy and what do we do....... We kill him!!! Resy easy Jambo, I'm so sorry big guy we let ya down 😢
?
Jambo died in 1992 of a ruptured artery. he died of natrual causes
jambo was different against harambe harambe got shot
jambo got a ruptured artery
may both go up in heaven together
You monster!!! So you're the bastard that ruptured his arterie??????? Shame on you!!!
2:08 Awwww 💙💙💙
RIP Harambe
I bet harambe is pissed up in heaven
Grief you don't say yambo, his name is jambo..you don't have yam on your bread. You have jam.
Ummm, King Kong did not perpetuate the myth of gorillas being aggressive ferocious beasts.
Literally the entire point of the movie is that Kong wasn’t like that...
No,King Kong in the 30s is portrayed as a monster. Its Mighty Joe Young where the beast is portrayed as a friendly creature, and is a better version because of it. If only because the man who brings the beast to the US (played by the same actor as Carl Denham, Robert Armstrong) is emotionally intelligent to Joe, and commits illegal acts to save Joe.
They have personality and behave just like we do if not more better than the human behaviour and yet we destroy the planet and they don't
He’s huge 😍
Four Knocks just cause I say he’s huge that makes me weird 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Four Knocks wow maybe to perverted people, I’m just fascinated how big the silverback is geeezeeee people!!!
@@veronikagarcia7035 yes it is huge
💯💯💯
While Jambo is good ambassador for his species, to credit this event with dispelling gorilla myths is to completely ignore the amazing work of Dian Fossey decades prior with gorillas in their natural habitat.
One love
One heart
Let's get together and feel alright
Sun winds last love. Lost dadyzero.2020
omg Dr. Lang sounds so swiss that‘s for sure ^^
Well what about poor old Hannibal.
my jambo jet flies cheerfully
The original video was taken by Brian Le Lion he has his own CZcams channel :)
Sono creature intelligenti, buone, ce da fidarsi più di loro che degli umani! Gli animali agiscono d'istinto, secondo la loro natura, a differenza dell'essere umano che pur avendo una coscienza commette cattiverie e atrocità, distrugge , per pura cattiveria e incoscienza
È vero
The mistake has always been ours. We have set ourselves above all other creatures, and disrespected them, presuming they have less intelligence than us, when it is not the case. We are the ones that have a lot to learn about living in harmony and respecting all life forms. The video showing the gorilla guarding the injured child should teach us a lot.🦍🤍😊
only if the harambe that was shot before was this gentle
He would of if people weren’t shouting and throwing stuff at him
I usually dont like apes but I love gorillas
Rip harambe
In 1986 what would be the price of the device which shoot this video
he knew that was a child. one of his keepers at the gerald durrell refuge centre said if an adult had gone into his enclousre, he might attack. there is a clip where he was charging towards a camera and lights directed at him..
Why does the footage recorded in 1972 look like it was taken during ww1?
And some think animals don't have feelings. I am sure that they do. You can see it in their eyes.
He’s good boi
Glad they didn't kill him!
I don't think the gorilla particularly cared about the boy, but was rather trying to ensure the safety of his troop in this unprecedented situation. A human falling into his habitat was clearly something he hadn't experienced and thus he wanted the rest of his troop to keep their distance. At the same time he was also clearly curious as gorillas tend to be interested in humans.
I think it goes both ways, We will never know Jambo's real reason of doing it, but I think he knew the kid was small and helpless, and he wanted to make sure it was ok but also being cautious like you said.
Hmmm, now where I've seen this before??
Rip jambo
The sterotypes of Wild Life and Wild animals is so wrong they have a Natural instint but they also had the habbility to adapt to an enviroment so we better respect
Peace loving gorillas are not a threat unless you are attacking thier harem or child. They don't eat meat they just graze all day and want to be kept alone.
They don't like to make direct eye contact for long,unlike a lion who's stairs down its prey before it attack's. Totally different behavior.
It make me sad that gorillas were not bigger than how i wonder
"All this things..."?! wtf their not things
Documentário sensacional, 5 minutos 😂

@@willianramos5650 saudações 👍
Still can't believe they killed harambe smh
Wow jumbo
Poor Jambo , he was only trying to help the little boy , he DID'NT deserve to lose his life , he seemed very caring and loveing the carers DID'NT even give him a chance that's DISCUTTING posting from LONDON ENGLAND
Shane Luke they didn’t kill Jambo lol that was Harambe in an American Zoo
He was not Harrambe
THE PROBLAM IS FOR THERE PARENTS
Great parents, huh?
It's not a myth, it can go either way.
This may sound nasty but the parents should have known better
