Chimp Solves Puzzle Faster than Most Humans

When it comes to solving puzzles, there are plenty of us who are quite happy with our abilities. We may do puzzles on a regular basis and, regardless of whether they are jigsaw puzzles, sudoku or some type of memory game, we marvel at our abilities and we may even be quite proud of them. In reality, we may think a little bit too much of ourselves in this regard, and that is especially true when you see this chimpanzee.

There is a simple game that is being placed on the screen in front of the chimpanzee and it comes in the form of an electronic puzzle. Numbers show on the screen in front of the chimp from 1-9 and then they are hidden from the chimpanzee very quickly with white boxes. The chimp then goes through and touches the boxes in order starting with 1 and he does it with such speed and precision, it may just leave you sitting there with your mouth hanging open.

There is no doubt that doing puzzles on a regular basis helps to improve your skills while doing them. You may find that you are increasing in both accuracy and speed. For most people, however, it would take quite some time to reach the level of this chimpanzee.
