Sure, they probably werent doing calculus, but they knew how to survive in a harsh world without modern comforts. They had to problem solve to not starve or get frostbite. Think about it.

Apes are smart.

Monkies are smart.

Birds are smart.

Amoebas are smart.

We're smarter.

They were physically the same as us
Including their brains. Stone age humans had the same brainpower we have today. The human species hasn't really changed much since that time. The only thing that makes us seem smart is we have modern education. And we are born after thousands of years of scientific development. If you went back in time and kidnapped a stone age infant and then took it to today and raised it in modern society it would grow up to be a normal person

They can survive in elements that modern civilized humans can't. That makes them smarter, in that particular environment.

Hell yeah, cavemen were smart.

Their bravery in the face of danger is why humanity came to dominate the food chain.

The only way to be the smartest is living naked in a forest with at best SELF hand made tools and surviving. (pure rugged individualism. garbage belief, btw)

The only thing that matters is direct cause and effect survival. (indirect survival AKA cooperation/specialization, means ur weak!!!11)

It's not that cavemen were probably smart it's that modern humans are pretty stupid on average, especially the average American

Arent Koalas functionally extinct in the wild? So it sounds like no, they didnt survive the harsh environments.

Being able to surivve in your environment doesnt equate to intelligence.

Also the were dumber than literally every surviving species which currently exists if you wanna use that logic.

A dude named frank.

I dunno who he was but he said it and Imma run with it.

Also seriously there are probly billions of people on this earth smarter than me who wouldnt be able to survive a year in the bush on their own whereas I definitely could.

Would any of ya'll like to be on naked and afraid? You'll spend 21 days naked as a jaybird without any source of water or food besides what you can find in the wild.

On the plus side, you'll have a naked woman with ya.

I mean tbf that show is fake as fuck and youd never be at any real risk.

Les Stroud had a survival show with teens that was probly the most legit version of a survival show ever tbh. But even that was a far cry from ever truly being at risk of starving or dehydration or whatever.

Not sure why they couldnt have done an adult version of that show, the one girl on the season I saw was badass. She was like 15 and ten times more composed and focused than I could have ever dreamed of being at that age.

Also, specializing your knowledge, and using modern technology is ultimately a smarter idea.
