The real King Kong

Gigantopithecus is an extinct genus of ape that existed from between 300,000 and 1 million years ago in what is now China, India, and Vietnam.

That means they could have existed alongside humans.

They were the biggest apes that ever lived, standing up to 3 metres (almost 10 feet) and weighing up to 540 kg (1,200 lb).
