Why do Computers use Binary?

After watching the video Why do Computers use Binary? I formed a better understanding of how computers use the binary system.
Three new things I learned are...
1. A system of two is used because it is the smallest number that allows a difference between two things.
2. Computers use voltage to transmit information.
3. Mistakes in reading the amount of voltage can occur
Two things I don't understand well are...
1. How are computers able to perform task so fast?
2. How was the binary system created?
One thing I want to learn more about...
1. What happens when there is too high of a voltage
