Reminds me of a "toothpick bridge" competition I competed in back in middle(?) school. For no particular reason that I can remember, my group used Gorilla Glue instead of white glue or wood glue. This resulted in some good things and some bad things.

The good: the bridge survived what was supposed to be destructive testing with no damage whatsoever!

The bad: that's because the glue joints just stretched elastically and the whole thing deflected into a banana shape without actually holding any weight, LOL.

Do gorillas make the glue or is it made from gorillas?

I wish.

That stuff is as expensive as it is tasty.
