I know that one thing that really distinguishes humans from other animals is our ability to throw objects with incredible accuracy. Some of our primate cousins can throw as well, but not with such precision. Consider the amount of processing our mind is doing with each throw, especially in a fast moving game.
- a9h74j 4y agoI have no basis for disagreement (although how many "only humans can" statements have fallen over the years). I wonder if a human proclivity towards organized sports could contribute, though. Organized sport also suggests organized practice and many opportunities for repetition. These could be required for accuracy up to physical and cognitive limits.
