Oh, dude, spider monkeys totally jump! I mean, they're not out here doing backflips or anything, but they can definitely leap from tree to tree like Tarzan on a sugar rush. So, yeah, if you ever see a spider monkey in action, just know they've got some serious hops.
Some may be able to swim. But their coarse hair (fur) is heavy when wet, and the narrow limbs of a spider monkey will not be able to tread water as well as other primates such as gorillas or man.
quiet a few species of monkey can swim underwater, except chimpanzees which have zero body fat and will sink instantly, drown and die
