Our backs hurt, ankles break and feet are busted! Not to mention having a baby is dangerous and our eyes are built backwards. There is a lot that doesn't work in our bodies, so today we are going to explain the perfectly evolved human. Evolutionary biologists have been battling this scenario for years so we explain it all. Including the need for ostrich feet, bipedal bodies, bilateral symmetry, rewiring neurons in the eye and having dog ears! Let us know if you would want this body!?
