He isn't. He's a chimpanzee. They are completely different things. To most people that might seem like a petty and pedantic point to make (even if it is an important distinction) but this is supposed to be the "science" section of the Mail. Are there actually any words in the article that are true? I realised I hadn't read it but now that I've looked at it I also notice that their description of cryogenics is total bollocks too.
