Luckily, the glass didn’t shatter completely as it only cracked one layer of the three tempered glass layers. Zoo officials reported that the incident involved a 10-year-old western lowland gorilla named Denny.
The impact startled the witnesses who were mere feet away from the glass. One woman described the collision as an earthquake. “It literally felt like an earthquake… before we realized that that was just him hitting [the glass],” said witness Jackie Doubler.
