I remember, first of all, the feeling of holding it. It's like it was made out of steel wires. It wasn't made out of a baby. You pick up a baby, babies are soft. You pick up a three-year-old, they're all soft little things and you hold onto them and they're weak. These things were strong as fuck, like in a bizarre way.
We like to look at something that's close to our size and think, oh, I could probably overpower that. You know, oh, I know how to fight. I'll fight that fucking chimp off. No, you have zero chance. It's a different thing. Everything about it is different. The muscle structure is completely different. The tendon structure is completely different. And the amount of force it can generate.

You also have the problem with less than extraordinary people being addicted to extraordinary circumstances. So if you have a boring-ass fucking life in some middle-of-nowhere town, but you also have a lion... You're cool. Life's pretty interesting. And that's Joe Exotic, right?

But in Tanya's case, what would that lady be like if she didn't have chimps? It is the focal point of her life to the point where she neglected her own biological children. Yeah, it gives her an identity. Yeah, in a weird way. In a weird way. In a very compelling way. And when people live boring-ass lives, things like that seem like something that that's who I am.
