YouTube: This is at the cafe inside the Memphis Zoo. The manager of the cafe told me that the alpha male monkey noticed me the second I walked in the door and started going crazy, because, as the alpha male, he feels threatened by tall males. So she told me to go stand by the window and turn my back on him and that he would "attack" me...

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 48 - Monkey is Threatened
So this is pretty interesting. A man was warned by a zoo worker at a Memphis Zoo that a monkey will feel his alpha-male status threatened if any tall men were to walk into the area. When he's told to turn his back to the monkey, the monkey takes advantage of his unaware state. Just watch.
