Operating a human takes an incredible intuition of physics, just because you can't write or explain the math doesn't mean your mind doesn't understand it. Further to that, we are able to apply our patterns of physics to novel external situations on the fly sometimes within miliseconds of encountering the situation.
You only need to see a ball bounce once and your brain has done some rough approximations of it's properties and will calc both where it's going and how to get your gangly menagerie pivots, levers, meat servos and sockets to intercept them at just the right time.
Think also about how well people can come to understand the physics of cars and bikes in motorsport and the like. The internal model of a cars suspension in operation is non-trivial but people can put it in their head.
