Monkeys are smarter than you

We have a joke at my school - whenever there's a big test comming up, we say something like "Look at it this way, a monkey can get 25%! So if you're not a monkey, surely you could do better than 25%"

Well, I guess that might be a misunderstanding:

I saw a snippet on Good Morning America- those chimps have super-photographic short term memory. I thought the film was sped up, but they were making their answers in real-time. I had difficulty trying to remember what I saw when the numbers were presented for only a fraction of a second, and couldn't do the exercise completely without error. I was put to shame. Pretty amazing stuff.
