Chimp, Sultan, put in room with banana hanging from ceiling out of his reach
After trying unsuccessfully to reach banana, he paced restlessly
Then, he moved box under banana, climbed onto it, and grabbed banana
Similar experiment done later with Sultan given several sticks, none of which was long enough to reach banana
Tried but could not reach food, gave up
Suddenly put two sticks together, then knocked banana down within reach
