Animals are the obsession of the Internet. We can’t get enough of viewing videos of cats, reading about stray dogs that have been saved, or researching exotic animals. It is therefore not surprising that this silverback gorilla is so well-liked.
His name is Ambam, and he lives at the Port Lympne Wild Animal Park in Kent, England, with his family. He is, as said earlier, a silverback gorilla, which is not unusual. But what distinguishes him is that he can walk like a person on two legs. It’s important to remember that Ambam is a magnificent 6-foot-34-stone gorilla.
The zoo experts find it astounding that he picked up walking on his own. He immediately became an adept by simply imitating the zookeepers. It’s a really amazing sight.
“I Can’t Move It,” the Real Reason Morgan Freeman Wore Only One Glove at the Oscars
When Morgan Freeman escorted Margot Robbie on stage at the 2023 Oscars, his left arm caught the attention of many. In fact, the 85-year-old actor wore an elbow-length satin black glove, which raised many concerns. And the reason behind it goes back to a heartbreaking event that transformed Freeman’s life 15 years ago.
Back in 2008, the Shawshank Redemption star was injured in a serious car accident that left him with a paralyzed left hand.
After the crash, Freeman had to undergo a 4-hour surgery in order to deal with his broken left shoulder, arm, and elbow.
A couple of years after the unfortunate event, the acclaimed actor opened up about his struggle, saying ’’I suffered nerve damage, and it hasn’t gotten better, I can’t move it.’’
He added, ’’If you don’t move your hand, it will swell up. Do you know you move your hand about a million times a day?’’
And even though doctors had reassured him that his hand would get better by 2011, this unfortunately didn’t happen to be the case.
Freeman ended up with permanent nerve damage and is still unable to wiggle his fingers.
And it seems that even 15 years later, the Oscar-winning actor is still dealing with the consequences of his accident, as we saw him wearing a glove during the ceremony.
According to experts, the compression glove works by lightly squeezing the veins in one’s hand to support blood circulation and can even help to manage tingling, pain, and swelling.
