The AVERAGE top speed of a chimpanzee on the ground is about 25mph*.
The fastest speed ever recorded for a man was about 27mph.
Note that the chimp speed was an average, this means there are both faster and slower individuals. The human record was a single man and there was no faster individual.
It is fair to say that on average they would be about the same. The same would also be true for the time at which both species can maintain this speed. Humans are moderately poor sprinters, as are chimpanzees.

* edited to note that I have never seen a reference for the speed of a chimpanzee running, and I've asked professional primatologists. Please include a reference for this statement if it exists.
A gorrila can run at least 20.8 m.p.h.
In land speed or relative air speed?
SLOW
Yes, but they can be fast if they want to be.
The episode is "Gorillas in the Mist" The song is Slow Slow Tune by My Morning Jacket.
It is the speed of the wind that is most destructive. Eventually, friction with the land will help to slow the wind speed.
Yes .
Gorillas live in forests and on mountains in Africa. AND THEY DRINK COFFE OF YOUR MOM
The friction with the land helps to slow down the wind speed.
Wild gorillas will eat fresh fruit, plants, herbs, tree bark, bugs, and bamboo. Gorillas that live in the western low lands will eat differently than gorillas that live in the mountains. Mountain gorillas are vegetarian and western low land gorillas are not.
Retro rockets slowed the LM down to landing speed.
Speed them up and slow them down. Try to get them to the same speed and make them land on 12:00 at the same time
I think you mean slow down and speed up. slow down =slow, speed up=fast
they adapt to there enviorment
