One way of demonstrating a being's wildness is for them to beat their chest while yelling. This might be combined with a Mighty Roar. This is most often done by gorillas (killer or otherwise), or occasionally other primates like orangutans, chimpanzees, monkeys or ape-like cryptids. When a character that is not a gorilla does it, it is usually either to show that they feel as strong and mighty as a gorilla, or that they are as brutish and uncultured as an ape. It also may be Played for Laughs, when it is done by a small and/or weak character. Two Stock Shout Outs often include chest pounding. One is a literal Shout Out to Tarzan, where the character lets out the ape-man's Signature Roar while beating his chest; the other is "King Kong" Climb, where the creature on top of the building (which is often a King Kong Copy) pounds its chest to recreate the iconic scene from King Kong (1933). In reality, gorillas may pound their chest for different purposes: as a display of dominance, as a release of stress, to warn neighbouring gorilla groups about their presence, and most notably, it is one of the nine phases of the ritualized fight between Silverbacks. Juvenile gorillas also beat their chests playfully. Also, it is usually inaccurately portrayed in media: real gorillas more often do it with open or cupped hands rather than clenched fists (which gorillas can't form, since their fingers are longer than their thumbs), which produces a sound that's less "thumping" and more "popping." Furthermore, they seldom vocalize while beating their chest, and when they do, it's more of a hooting or whinnying sound than a Mighty Roar. Other primates beside gorillas (and occasionally humans) hardly ever show this behaviour. It might be part of a Victory Pose of a savage, brutish fighter, especially when combined with a Victorious Roar. Compare Stop Hitting Yourself where it's someone else who moved the hands of the victim to hit themself, Macho Masochism, when the character hurts themself in a much more painful way to show off their toughness, and All Drummers Are Animals, where a savage character drums on an instrument rather than their own chest. Contrast Breast Attack, when a character hits someone else's chest in a fight. |

The Marsupilami, being a monkey-like critter, sometimes does this. One Spirou & Fantasio story also has the Marsupilami encounter a gorilla, who proceeds to do the typical chest-beating and tree-ripping intimidation display. Subverted in that the gorilla ends up too exhausted to fight back. | |

It worths noting that arc was written by Keith Giffen and J. M. De Matteis, the responsibles for the Justice League's sarcastic/humoristic phase in the 80s. | |

In Toriko, this is invoked during the Rainbow Fruit arc: as they reach the Biotope where the fruit grows, the heroes hear a loud banging noise, which Toriko correctly interprets as the local "boss of the Biotope", the Troll Kong, beating his chest to intimidate intruders. Toriko simply causes a bigger noise by thumping his own chest as an answer to the Troll Kong's challenge. | |

MAD: In a series made by Don Martin to parody Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes, little Tarzan is in his "dad's" arms when a hostile ape defies the latter with a chest-beating. Daddy answers with another beating, shaking the baby. Another Tarzan comic, illustrated by Frank Frazetta himself, shows Tarzan beating his chest in front of some gorillas. They apparently took it as a challenge, since they subject him to a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown in response. |

While attempting to demonstrate her toughness by taking a hit from an unknown weapon created by Mojo Jojo, she stands in place, yelling and beating her chest while the shot is in flight. Had she not been rescued, she would have been de-powered, as her rescuer noted, was labeled on the weapon. | |

Dian Fossey does this in Gorillas in the Mist when she imitates the gorillas' behavior to blend in with the group. The scene is a bit of a Fridge Logic, considering that chest-beating often means a display of dominance or a challenge to fight — probably not the best idea when you are trying to earn the trust of a 300-pound silverback. | |

The Jack Benny Program (the TV version): Benny does a very wimpy, pathetic version in a sketch where he plays Tarzan. Jane (played by Guest Star Carol Burnett) fares much better minus the chest pound - her doing the Tarzan yell later became a Running Gag during the audience Q&A segment of The Carol Burnett Show. | |

Multiple characters do it in in George of the Jungle, including Ape the ape when he pretends that he's an unintelligent, non-talking animal, George as part of his courtship display to Ursula, and a monkey (named Little Monkey) when fending off a lion. See the last one here. | |

In Tarzan, Kerchak does it on two occasions: first when getting enraged about Kala adopting Tarzan, and second when he menaces Jane in the human camp. In a rare case of Shown Their Work, he does it with open hands. Tarzan also does it in the closing shot of the movie (with clenched fists) while letting out his Signature Roar. | |

He eventually finds out that the "monster" is Ranko, a gorilla trained as an Attack Animal by the villains and the strange sound that terrified the villagers was Ranko beating his chest. Quite impressive that they could hear him from so far away. | |

Mickey Mouse: In the short "The Pet Shop", Beppo, the movie-loving gorilla, pounds his chest to imitate his film idol, King Kong. In "Mickey's Garden", a giant beetle pounds its chest after drinking a whole bottle of bug poison. In an inversion of Four-Legged Insect, the beetle has eight limbs, and uses six of them for the chest-beating. In "The Worm Turns", Mickey sprays a less anthropomorphic mouse chased by a cat with his courage elixir. As an effect of the elixir, the mouse lets out a Mighty Roar while pounding its chest, before charging at the cat. In the 2013 short "New York Weenie", Mickey goes through a Sanity Slippage chasing a living hot dog. When the hot dog bounces into a zoo, Mickey pounds his chest in front of a "Beware! Wild Animals!" sign before entering the zoo himself. |

Episode 5 has two chest-pounding moments: first, one of the gorilla-like ape-man warriors does it before clashing with the other combatants, then Krog, the champion does it directly after transforming into a King Kong Copy. | |

Monica's Gang: In a 70s story, an extra working as a gorilla in a movie gets amnesiac when a heavy bag falls on his head; a poster parodying King Kong (1976) makes him think he is King Kong. He runs from the studio, climbs on Jimmy and Smudge's club, does some chest-beating, then kidnaps Monica, taking her for Dean (Jessica Lange). Despite the attempts of Maggy and the boys to make the "gorilla" step down, the club crashes under his weight and Monica's; the fall returns his memories and he is dragged back to the movie by the director, who is impressed by the extra's feral "performance". Monica and Maggy think that everything ended up well, but Jimmy and Smudge, furious about their destroyed club, run after the girls howling and beating their chests. | |

Dragon Ball Z: Gohan beats on his chest at the first time he becomes oozaru (giant ape); unlike Vegeta and the other Saiyans raised in their native planet, he never was trained to keep his sentience during the transformation and is dominated by pure instinct. The final form of Majin Buu, Kid Buu, does this before his final fight with Goku and Vegeta. Humorously, he continues pounding his chest even as Goku kicks him in the face and sends him flying into a cliff. There's no particular reason for him doing this — he's just completely off his rocker. |

Lord Hater briefly does this in the Wander over Yonder episode "The Fancy Party" as he rants that he, not Wander, should win Queen Entozoa's empire; potentially foreshadowing Season 2's eventual implication that he was a space ape from Earth before he became the Scary Skeleton we know in the show. | |

Spectreman: In the Western opening, Karras bangs on his chest before facing Spectreman. He's an alien gorilla and tries (unsucessfully) to look intimidating. | |
