Man is a special being.
He contested with the birds in the air and no bird could get to the altitude man got.
He went beyond the birds and lived in space for many months, a feat no bird can ever attain.
He contested with the fish in the ocean and was able to live better even in the sea than fish.
He is a wonder in this world.

Add your own, what has man done that beats your imagination when you consider the fact that he started with nothing here on earth.
