Donkey Kong performing Gorilla Grab

Gorilla Grab (Simium Strainus) is one of Donkey Kong's moves in Donkey Kong 64. It enables him to pull levers while standing on an footprint pad next to it, if the player presses B Button, and by doing so, a certain event is triggered. For example, in Frantic Factory, Gorilla Grab is used to power up the Production Room. Another notable instance where Donkey Kong performs the move is to play the Donkey Kong arcade cabinet in Frantic Factory. Donkey Kong can perform Gorilla Grab on a lever in the DK Isles lobby for Frantic Factory and Fungi Forest each. Gorilla Grab can be learned from Cranky's Lab, starting with Frantic Factory, for a price of seven Banana Bunch Coins.
