To celebrate the Chinese Year of the Monkey which started on Monday, The iPad Magician Simon Pierro, thought chimpanzees would be the perfect subject for his next experiment.

He worked with three different chimps, Mona, Jenny and Andy, who all had their minds blown by his iPad tricks.

Pierro has been performing iPad magic all over the world, and based on the success of the reactions of humans, he thought he would try it out on a non-human audience.

First, he tells a story to the chimps with his usual iPad routine; finding a peanut on the iPad, taking it from the screen, then making it disappear.

His tricks become more elaborate and eventually the chimps get to eat the peanuts that Pierro fashions up for them.
