Really brutal! Watch the tenacious spider monkey climb onto the American tourist who pulls down her T-shirt and clings on despite her hilarious attempts to untie
- Video shows the spider monkey wrapping its arms around the woman in Cancun
This is when a stubborn spider monkey climbed onto an American tourist, pulled down her T-shirt and clung on despite her hilarious attempts to break free.
The video shows the tenacious monkey wrapping its long arms, legs and tail around the woman’s body in Cancun, Mexico.
As the animal clambers along the woman’s legs with its prehensile tail and clings to the tourist’s shirt, panic sets in when she says to her friend, ‘I don’t know what to do. I’m afraid.’
She then kneels on the floor in an attempt to free herself from the primate who wraps his arms around her neck to cling to.
The tourist, who looks visibly frightened throughout the video, repeats “I’m scared again” as her friend tries to turn her on by joking that the monkey is going to bite her.
The monkey then brutally pulls down the woman’s shirt, exposing her bra underneath, as she yells and yells “bye, bye, go, go” at it.

In the video, the woman tries to get the spider monkey off her in various ways, including by kneeling
The woman then begins to walk away holding the monkey’s hand in an attempt to pry it away from her, but there are no signs of her letting go of her shirt.
“Someone take the monkey, I gotta go, dude,” she then yells as the monkey clings on.
The American tourist then starts spinning around trying to get the monkey off her, but she still can’t break free, causing her friend to burst out laughing.
She then asks another man, “Sir, can you please take the monkey?” adding, “She won’t let go.”
After the monkey grabs hold of her for about a minute, she finally manages to escape before the video, which was filmed in July but has just emerged, is cut short.
Spider monkeys are large New World apes that live in tropical rainforests from Mexico to northern Bolivia. They get their name from the way their long limbs and tails resemble spider legs as they dangle and swing from branches.
Spider monkeys have a prehensile tail that can grasp, thus acting as a fifth limb. They live an average of 22 years.

This is not the first time female tourists have been targeted by brutal animals.
In May, a video surfaced of a “notorious” orangutan groping a woman’s breasts at a Thai zoo.
Panisara Rikulsurakan, 26, was visiting Bangkok’s Safari World in Thailand when she stopped to sit down and pose with the cheeky primate named Nhong.
In the video, Mrs. Rikulsurakan sits down on a bench in front of the orangutan, who needs no invitation to wrap his long arms lovingly around her.
Soon after, Nhong smiles at the crowd before moving the woman closer to cheekily kiss her on the cheek as she and those watching burst into laughter.
The orangutan then briefly removes its arms from Mrs. Rikulsurakan before placing them back on her – this time right on top of her breasts.
Nhong has learned the practice of touching and kissing women’s breasts with the encouragement of the handlers and other visitors, but this has been condemned by animal rights groups such as PETA.
