I think I was around 20 - 30 feet from him.
At times we got to within 4 feet of some gorillas. A blackback walked by a group of us and we could have touched him.

I would NOT want to be within arms length of this guy however.
While they are habituated to humans, he was definitely keeping an eye on us.
