Apes with AK 47 (Original Footage)

This is a popular video featuring a Chimp monkey using an AK-47 gun to shoot at a group of off-duty African soldiers who were taunting it. The soldiers initially laugh and fool around while handing the gun to the ape – but then, the animal starts shooting at them, and the frightened group of soldiers get away quickly. In the end, the ape finally holds the AK-47 aloft in triumph. Although many people believed that this video could be real, that is not the case here.

The source of this footage, as can be seen in the second video, is a part of a video from the YouTube channel of ‘Apes Will Rise’. The original video was published on 6 Jul 2011, with a title ‘Ape With AK-47’
