After much thought, I've come to the conclusion that the GREATEST human achievement EVER is...
Bananas!

it's all about the bannoffee pie, greatest dessert ever, in all honesty there are hundred of thousands of amazing things that as humans we have discovered, from fire through to AI

welcome to the escapist, please don't feed the trolls

 

[Random Argument Man]

I would say he agricultural revolution. With this, societies started to exist.

Note* That, or pie.

 

[Hexenwolf]

and plastic, it is the reason we are, why we are here, plastic

It sure is.

OT: Quantum mechanics. They blow my mind.

 

[The_Healer]

The Wheel.

Yeah... actually come to think of it, fast food really does shoot itself in the foot there.

Time, possibly one of humanities greatest creations.

then again in relative speaking everything of which mankind has named and put label to has technically come to be a product of human accomplishment.

would a zebra be a zebra if we had not named it so?

Yes, but there would be no time as we perceive it without us to perceive it. Of course, animals would still probably notice it and differentiate between the past and present (at least large mammals), but they probably wouldn't name and label it.

I don't know...sliced bread

The list is way to long.

Personal favorite however would have to be sustained flight. Man has been looking at birds, saying I want to do that, failing miserably and then declaring it impossible since time immemorial. A short century ago the write brothers did that impossible thing and now we have this:

Spoiler

Figure if we can manage that, we can do damn near anything.

 

[Fallingwater]

The Internet, and computers in general.

 

[v3n0mat3]

Cupcakes.

 

[resultsmayvary]

The David Bowie album Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars. One of the only concept albums that worked.

 

[Skutch]

Domesticated animals.
This includes cows, chickens, etc. But I am especially amazed by our relationship with dogs.

 

[pirateninj4]

Mankinds greatest achievement apart from never learning from our mistakes as a species would be the systematic destruction and erosion of the planet as a whole. Oh and the amount of species that have been wiped out as a result of this.

 

[Valkyira]

Exploration of space, surveillance on mars and electricity.

 

[RobCoxxy]

Well, I'd say cooking, recipes.
Know any other species that can make a fucking mean spicy chicken fajita wrap?
Nah ah. That set us apart from animals a LONG time before we went to the moon (conspiracy theorists, read "before we "went" to the moon")

 

[Zorg Machine]

COULD YOU BELIIIEEEEVE WE PUT A MAN ON THE MOON?!

can you believe we spent millions of dollars (if not billions, I'm not sure) and human lives getting too the moon and once there we took a few pictures and played some golf before realizing that the moon is really boring.

OT the greatest accomplishment in human history is cake and the only thing that can outshine it is when ppl realize that it's better than pie (cookies came close though).

Disagree on the first point, agree on the second point. Cake is waaay better than pie.

cake>pie Einstein's secret formula.
btw what part of my comment specifically did you disagree with?

speech, seriosly any species that can master anything as messed up as the english language has made it.

inflammable=flammable impossible= not possible.
