Slapping implies an action in a hierarchical context. A disproportionate sense of power between the actor (slapping hand) and the entity acted upon (slapped). It is a contact that is desired only by one of the parties.

Quite right! We're apes who can compose symphonies, split the atom and send rockets to the moon, We're still apes, though.

I think the exact same thing when people are whooping at concerts or sports games. Such apes, the lot of us.
