No, just an instant revulsion the first time I saw them in a zoo.

When I was 16 or so, a friend took me with her family to the zoo in DC.

They had a Silverback gorilla in what I would describe as a glass cubicle.

Its back was to everyone passing by but when I stopped to look at it, it slowly turned and looked me dead in the eyes.

I nearly fainted.

Ironically, Planet of the Apes is like one of my top 10 favorite movies.
