I came across a program called Going Ape on the National Geography channel. Although the content of the program is very interesting, I would like to say that I watched the whole program. The program has a presenter, as this person told, he played the role of gorilla, monkey, etc. in movies a lot. He studied his movements and manners very well. Then he got up and made a program about the similarities between the behavior of monkeys and the behavior of humans. It was a program that gave interesting information about being an alpha male. Also, at the end of the article, I shared a video about the title of this article, namely the importance of tone and style.

If we go back to the program; As the similarities are mentioned, he also says that our ancestors were those creatures. I believe that we are descended from penguins.. Just kidding, I believe in creation. 😀 Returning to our topic, we seriously become alpha males in the same way as it is to be an alpha male in a gorilla community, especially in males as per the subject of the program!

On the right in the picture, the host of the friend program is also the person who plays the monkey gorilla role a lot.

I won’t summarize the 90-minute program for you now, but I think it’s a fun program because it’s extremely similar.

My main goal is to give real-life examples in the program, and I liked one of these examples and wanted to share them. In our example, we have a candidate alpha male with an imaginary box at the train station. This candidate is told to say ‘Get out of my box’ to people approaching his box. Take a look at how the change in the style of saying this sentence causes reactions.

As you can see, style is very important in daily life. Before we start using it better, let’s watch the video below and have some laughs.

The whole section is available in the link I shared. However, I set the video a few seconds behind the part I want you to see. When you click on the link, the woman who appears in front of you will inform you about the tone of her voice and come to the part that I want you to watch. If you want, you can take it to the beginning and watch the whole episode like me. I talked a little bit about the drama, a little bit about the importance of tone and style. See you in another article 🙂
