After having watched that Punk'd video...

First off, that guy has some serious balls. I know we all say we'd stand down a gorilla for our girls, but he actually did it.. something tells me he got laid that night.

More relevant, that video is very helpful because it shows you how a pro goes about imitating a gorilla. At about 2:30 into the video, there's a side shot of the guy in the suit that gives a clear view of how he moves. Note that he runs with his knees bent, back sloped forward and arms hanging loose; I reckon he's got some sort of brace or exension in the arms to allow him further reach than normal. It's probably hell on the lower back, but it works.
