There is a monkey, a chimpensee to be exact, who plays games of memory, for food. The numbers are projected on a screen, so fast, that human beings cannot see them. The monkey does.
Is this intelligence? That depends, for it is all a matter of perspective. We automatically asume,that animals see the world the same way we do. And if they do, do they see it the same way?
A falcon and dogs too, see, what they smell, even in the dark. The mice leave small urine-trails behind, that glow in the dark. A butterfly does not see the same flower we do. They see into the ultra-violet spectrum. A flower shows itself on a different level.
The world we live in is the result of images processed by the brain. We only need a view compared to chimpensees. For them the numbers don't move as fast as they appear to us. Our world in slow-motion. Quarterbacks have that ability too, even if they don't know it. Otherwise, they would not survive. Cave-explorers filmed spear-like objects, that could not be detected by the naked eye. Only by way of extreme slow-motion, these objects became visible. A look into another dimension or in a bigger one
Humans have those same ability and sometimes it appears suddenly in dangerous or stressful situations. People start seeing things and your intuitive powers open up. People tend to act very adequate, when theyend up in a complex or dangerous situation. But don't rely on it, don't rely on your luck or your guardian angels. You only can save your own life and that is beconming more an more unpredictable, catastrophic and lifethreatening. Better stay at home, water your plants and study. I do.
You can train these capabilities. You can learn to sense movement around yuou or to nove extremely fast or to remember thousands playingcards in the presented order. If you have to, you can do it. But don't be careless. You are literally playing with some-ones life and what's more important your own. And we cannot permit to loose a single life. So study and practise while you can. Ignore extremities and choose the middle path (for a while). Drive carefully.
