RE: Humans Can Punch - And We're The Only Ones Who Can
Did a man who found he had a strong, tightfisted punch survive better, win more battles and therefore reproduce more effectively?
I think this was probably the case.
So if we evolved the shape of our hands primarily to use in attack or defence there wasn't a foolproof design applied
well, nature even though it constantly innovates, it is not perfect.
could also have contributed to how our faces evolved to accommodate such violence
wow this is something I haven't thought about. Really interesting if true and I wonder how many punches did people receive in the past to affect evolution itself.
Cheers @suzanrs!
Thank you @dedicatedguy ... I too wonder if the face changing had anything at all to do with the odd smack in the jaw but in the fairness of science it would be wrong not to acknowledge research and offer it up for discussion. ;)
