Okay, Who's the Big Hairy Ape, Kong or Jeff Bridges?

Well, genetically speaking, King Kong is definitely the big hairy ape of the two. And, while Jeff Bridges played long hair and bearded anthropologist Jack Prescott, who was probably arrested in Chicago during the protest at the '68 Democratic National Convention while still attending college at Berkly University.(but I digress)

My point being that, while Jack may be a very hairy man, he's also a very intelligent guy, so therefore, he should not be considered a hairy ape of a man. Now, put all of Jack Prescott's hair and beard on one of the ship hands or, Charles Grodin's character and then we're asking each other, "Who is the real hairy ape in the movie?".
