Humans don't appear to fail in the same ways - camouflage and optical illusions are very different to the specific imperceptible-to-humans changes that trick neural networks. Then again, there's no way to test the method on humans because you need to know the neural network weights and that is tricky for people!

In practice it probably doesn't matter anyway - the chance of the exact required perturbation of the input happening by chance are infinitesimal, due to the high dimensionality of the input. And even if it was a problem there are ways around it.
