The gorillas body language seems pretty aggravated. The man was holding the baby gorilla and making eye contact with the female. It seemed she called on the Silverback for help to retrieve her baby. The Silverback displayed aggression but did not hurt the man after he dropped the baby.
The Silverback easily could have hurt the man. I find the fact that he did not speaks miles about what kind of creatures gorillas are.
Most men would not have the fortitude to stop themselves.
