But trying to say that humans are unable to do it, when the chimp has been trained a lot more than humans, is an unfair comparison.

The reveal time is shortened to 0.04 of a second and the chimp still gets them all right. That amount of time isn`t enough for the presenter to even see all the numbers." I`m assuming the presenter hasn`t practiced nearly as much as the chimp, if at all. Chimp practicing a task for 5 years versus presenter practicing hardly at all, who do you expect to do better? It`s not like this was a natural talent that the chimp had, he had to learn to do it, just like a human would have to learn to do it.

You need to see the next part of the programme where the presenter goes head to head and can`t even get one right. The reveal time is shortened to 0.04 of a second and the chimp still gets them all right. That amount of time isn`t enough for the presenter to even see all the numbers.
