Why are humans so physically weak compared to other animals?

For instance, most of us would have a very hard time surviving in the wild. And even then, we need tools in order to survive. Our physical strength is weak compared to many other animals. Why are we so weak compared to other wild animals who have no problem surviving on their own?

We have the best endurance of any animal. Not sure if that counts a strength. Sure a cheetah or dog can run faster than us but they’ll have to stop for a break. Humans can walk and outlast them. It was a tactic used for hunting historically too.
