Reply to comment by herbw in TIL that most non-human primate infants actively use their hands to help themselves out of the birth canal. Human infants do not, but their grip strength is much higher during the hours immediately after they are born. by afeeney
They still likely climbed trees for foraging fruit etc. But yes, they spent their lives on the ground.
Even today many tribes and rural villages climb local trees for fruit, coconuts, small animals, better leaves and wooden sticks higher up, etc.
Humans are still good climbers, just not as good as chimps and most primates.

Reply to comment by muskratboy in TIL nearly 60 senators were part of the conspiracy to assassinate Julius Caesar, but he was stabbed 23 times, with only 1 wound being fatal. Caesar ultimately died at the base of the statue of his former rival, Pompey the Great. by axonable
They knew which wounds are fatal from experience in wars....
