4000 lb bench press for gorilla - possible
Guys, I have yet to see a gorilla lift 4000 lbs on bench press just because it'll be a heck of an entertainment. That said, I believe it is highly possible for a gorilla to do that. The reason I think that is that the gorillas break off bamboo sticks without any problem. And those bamboo sticks took about 1800 lbs of force to break when the test was performed with a mechanical robot with a dynamometer attached to it. If you consider that this is 1800 lbs of force just in the arms+chest muscles then a 4000 lbs bench press doesn't sound all that far from reach since almost all muscle groups contribute to a bench press. Given that a gorilla's body parts/muscles are proportionate to each other (which I think are since they are resembling of humans) it's easy to see that a gorilla may be capable of bench pressing well above the mentioned 4000 lb mark.

All you guys are basing it off a human benching 1000 lbs. Well we cant guys. Thats the record with a bench shirt.
However I dont know, a gorilla could prolly throw up 4000lbs in a rage. Especially one that weighs 500+ lbs.DL:455
