Nagkaroon ng malapitang encounter sa isang malaking gorilla ang mag-asawang Anne Curtis at Erwan Heussaff habang nagbabakasyon sa Africa.

Nagkaroon ng malapitang encounter sa isang malaking gorilla ang mag-asawang Anne Curtis at Erwan Heussaff habang nagbabakasyon sa Africa.

When a silverback comes your way (this was the number 2 in the family) you make yourself as small as possible and stand your ground. I had nowhere to go so I just clenched every fiber in my body, ready for the hit. At first I thought the lady behind fell on my side, but I then realized that she managed to get behind me and that body check I felt actually came from the gorilla. SURREAL. I can now say that I've been trunked by an elephant and brushed aside by a silverback. I need to get bitten by something now, like a big cat. P.S I can now also say that I (unwillingly) put myself between this giant and my wife @annecurtissmith to protect her. #silverbackgorilla #Rwanda #africananimals

Nagbiro rin si Erwan na pang-ilang encounter niya na ito sa isang malaking hayop.

Nasa Africa sina Erwan at Anne para sa kanilang first wedding anniversary at honeymoon.
