This has always struck me funny - when you really think about it, we're one of the most piss-poorly adapted creatures on this planet. We aren't naturally good at swimming, climbing, digging or flying. We have soft, sensitive, thin skin with no fur or protective covering. No natural weapons, other than a fairly strong but awkward-as-hell bite. Just enough mass to hurt like hell when we fall, but not enough to throw around very seriously. Sensitive stomachs and immune systems, but our children's first instinct is to put unfamiliar objects in their for-chrissakes mouths. We don't have great strength, either on a brute level (like bears, elephants, etc.) or for our size (like insects). We walk on a laughably-easy-to-topple pair of legs, with our genitalia stuck out in front of us like a huge bullseye. Hell, you could cut off our opposable thumbs and we'd make the Dodo bird look like a marvel of design.
The thing is, it's entirely our brains that make us. We came up with clothing and shelter to protect us from the elements; we developed machines and special techniques to help us swim, climb, fly and so on; we came up with martial arts and weapons to defend ourselves; we came up with a whole new universe of inventions to improve our quality of life - all with the power of our minds. We've adapted to everything this world has thrown at us, because we've mentally risen to the challenge.
TL;DR - we rule this world because of our brainpower. If you're reading this first, you're clearly lacking in it. ;P

lol i just took a class on anthropology, and the one thing i learned is that the only reason that humans have survived in nature is because we are the biggest assholes out there
we survived because we had intelligence, but then we became even more intelligent as we ate cooked food, this cooked food made it easier to digest food thus retrieving more nutrients for brain growth. no natural weapons, we make a sword, cant swim, make a boat, cant fly, make a plane, we make stuff to make up for our weaknesses
