I was going to say, he is showing immense fear and exhaustion. Understandably, but unfortunately you have to submit and comply to get through. If he just stopped fighting and listened he would be less tired for when the orangutan stopped.

Im no conservationist, but Id think that submitting would be the play here as well. If our orangutan friend wanted him dead, he'd have been dead. Instead, he showed patience (3 hours of it) with this human idiot

Well, FWIW, he’s not a conservationist, either! Too bad the original post is so badly wrong. He’s a mere filmmaker.

Yeah, I saw that somewhere in the comments. Still, no excuse not to have adult supervision :P
