DAVID: We are the only organism with hands like ours. Imagine an ape playing the violin. They can't even hammer:-http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0146193-Yeah, yeah, our variations enable us to do things other organisms can't do. Now try and pick up a log with your nose, or walk through the desert for a week without any water, or flap your arms and fly 6000 miles without stopping.
