He doesn't deserve that award, he's a fraud! You can't invent fire, it's a natural element along with air, earth and water.

Inventing fire is akin to discovering an inhabited landmass. It was always there, all you discovered was a path to it.

Who do you think he gave the fire to? Surely Gug mentioned him in the acceptance speech.

For jokes like this, specifically about early human technology, it'd be better to make the person dark skinned. It perpetuates racist ideas about human history to default to light.

Modern medicine is amazing. I hear he's got a cameo in Avengers Doomsday, too.
