Somewhere between three and four million years ago, mankind’s most distant ancestors stopped swinging in trees and started walking on the ground.
And now that same process is happening again.
Monkey and lemur species that have lived in trees for countless millennia are beginning to spend increasing amounts of time on the forest floor in response to deforestation and climate change.
A study based on more than 150,000 hours of observations of 47 tree-dwelling primate species living across almost 70 sites in Madagascar and the Americas has shown the change in habitat is a global trend.

I don't know how difficult it is to pick coconuts, but it seems like it'd be a lot more work to kidnap and train a bunch of monkeys to do it.

First of all, if the monkeys want to go through your bag, let them. Chances are pretty good that you're going to get bit and catch a weird disease - worse, they're going to kill your child.
Second, at the end of the video you can hear the Aussie family complaining that a bunch of people were standing around and not doing a damn thing to help. While that's true, they probably recognized that this bloke (to use an Aussie term) was being an idiot and wanted to record him getting his just desserts. I hope that if the monkeys truly got the upper hand, or got a hold of one of his kids, some of them would have intervened. Pretty sure the people outnumbered the monkeys at least 2-1, maybe 3-1.
