I had a good friend in undergrad that greatly resembled a Neanderthal. Seriously!

A protruding brow ridge, broad flattened bridge of the nose and rather prognathus ( a fancimous two dollar word used to decribe a "robust jaw line")


Funny enough, he was majoring in anthropology.



We always held him up as evidence of possible interbreeding.
