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.

I took my g.f. to the D.C. zoo in the mid 60s, first date. While watching the monkeys, one of them got as close as he could, faced us and started masturbating furiously. Very embarrassing.
