When it comes to this test... no I am not.

15, I beat the chimp!
nerdsniper•6mo ago
And other chimps beat you! :-)

(5% of the recorded chimpanzee results were equal to or better than your best result)

nerdsniper•6mo ago
I dove into the JS to retrieve the chart data. Here are the chimpanzee's results (converted by me to % of all recorded outcomes). The chart data implies but does not show that no chimps succeeded at >=25. So if you got an impressive 20 correct, chimpanzees might still beat you 0.5% of the time.
