Here's what Strongs says about the word "man" in said verse :
From H605; properly a mortal (and thus differeing from the more dignified H120); hence a man in general (singly or collectively). It is often unexpressed in the English Version, especially when used in apposition with another word: - another, X [blood-] thirsty, certain, chap [-man], divers, fellow, X in the flower of their age, husband, (certain, mortal) man, people, person, servant, some (X of them), + stranger, those, + their trade. It is often unexpressed in the Engl. version, especially when used in apposition with another word.

Just because the answer is Jesus doesn't mean that's what that verse meant when written.

And a little higher than the monkeys. We're between the angels and the monkeys.
And like Genesis says to first man, "have dominion over the earth."
