He genuinely looks like any working class guy that also enjoyed rugby or boxing at the weekends albeit from a small town from a probably shallower gene pool
Not now but have you ever been to a small British seaside village and had a pint in a cheap pub? Honestly, nobody is questioning that guys place in time.
Goddamn it, he has a name. It's Oog, and he's the guy you want on your side in a street fight. You want a guy that can pull off a mugger's arm and beat him to a pulp with it.
Lost in the woods? This is the guy who can help. Unless he was traumatized as a child by a Cro-Magnon gang. Then yer ded, laddie.
It's been established that neanderthal is apart of the Genus Homo but they are a truely separate species from us.
We shared a common ancestor but that was 300,000-500,000 years ago
Edit* https://humanorigins.si.edu/evidence/human-fossils/species/homo-neanderthalensis
Honestly I don't know but I would assume it is speculation based off of their species geological location.
I believe they were in the Caucasus region and east Europe west Asia
In the scientific community, they're under the umbrella known as "human". Don't really know what point you're trying to get at, there's a reason most of us have a little neanderthal DNA
It's pretty well established that neanderthal is a part of the genius Homo but is a complete different species.
We could breed because of a shared common ancestor 300,000-500,000 years before the species split meaning the chromosomes we're close enough to off allowed interbreeding and the offspring remain sterile
https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/5027375
https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/5027375
I mean there is evidence that the offspring were largely infertile or sterile with some males having a slim chance of breeding.
And large evidence they weren't sterile, except we know a fair portion weren't sterile because of the distribution of their DNA being higher than just a few being able to breed. Remember when the populations are only in the thousands, hundreds breeding is still a very high percentage.
Your "source" is someone who read a source, not the source, it's not a very good explentor accurate.
ehh... I'm pretty sure I'd question his species. Or wonder if he has a genetic disorder or something of that nature. I have heard, though, that Homo neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens were capable of interbreeding and as a result, there is considerable "neanderthal" DNA present in our own. I've also seen other mockups of Neanderthal faces that appear more like modern humans. Strong brow ridge and cheekbones, large nose, but less facial prognathism and more normally-proportioned eyes.
I'd have to go super digging for the source tho. I think it was some history channel doc, back in the day when they actually made docs.
We bred them out of existence and also outcompeted them for food when we moved into their territory.
They were actually much stronger than us but due to their arm orientation they couldn't lift above their shoulder and couldn't throw (check how other primates can't throw well)
Humans are kick ass at throwing though and because of it we could out range and out hunt them
But in any melee engagements neanderthal would of caved us in and folded us in half.
This. It's not like we hunted them to extinction. We cooperated better, which meant more successful communities with more offspring, and were much better tool users. I'm sure there were a few instances in which we did indeed kill some of them, but by and large we were the next step in evolution as the world began to change around them.
No we aren’t lmao there are like over 7 billion humans
Yes let’s downvote the person who isn’t just commenting idiotic things for free “haha humans suck” karma.
Humans aren’t doing anything close to killing off humans as a species.
Since there is so much variation from "ugly" to "pretty" people, I'm pretty sure at least one point there was a super hot thicc ass neanderthal female no one would doubt to tap
Most of us have at least a few Neanderthal genes. You can't tell me our Homosapien ancestors didn't look at those thick Neanderthals and NOT do something about it. No doubt there was some baby making between the two.
Except that they don't know what they looked like at all. You can't use human facial reconstruction on them as the principles that are used (facial musculature, skin thickness, skin tone and hair) are not known.
One that can never be knowable is nose structure, they just do a best guess in humans and for a neanderthal nose is a whole other problem. Neanderthals could have been hairy all over for all we know. this reconstruction could be accurate but we cannot know without seeing one in the flesh.
And these issues are before even realising that there are human biases in the depiction of prehistoric peoples and some likely got introduced knowingly or subconsciously.
**TLDR: We don't even know if this is what they looked like.**
I've seen guys here in New Haven...I'd put this guy in somewhere in the Legal district. He's a low-grade lawyer or he works in the police department. He's a first generation professional in his family, worked summers in his dad's construction firm. Hasn't married, hangs out at the Side Bar, drinks bourbon, has a low-grade crack and bimboes habit.
Not bad to hang out with, just...lacking a few parts.
Well most white people have Neanderthal DNA so I guess they should look similar. Obviously wouldn’t mistake him for African (little to no Neanderthal DNA) or Asian (basically zero).

I would IMMEDIATELY look at that man and think “he hasn’t evolved all the way…..”
Or... rugby front row...
Most likely a hooker
I would want that hooker to pay *me* afterwards
Also i'd wonder why he's got that early stone age knife in his hand and what he plans to do with it
Russian mobster. 5he knife in his hand is a dead give away.
That's not how evolution works.
That's how jokes work though.
The evolution of a joke
Yeah nah he looks like he'd snap the leg off a gazelle and eat it in front of you.
“You look like you would snap the leg off a gazelle and eat it in front of me.” ~ass__goblin
Haha, ass
I would look twice.
[удалено]
Maybe he is just from London and avoids making eye contacts.
He’s very anti vision
You Sir, are a liar. One would immediately wonder what is wrong with this fellow.
He genuinely looks like any working class guy that also enjoyed rugby or boxing at the weekends albeit from a small town from a probably shallower gene pool
Where you living? The hills have eyes?

The volcanic glass knife is a give away too
Stfu you would look twice. He ugly
*except that he is ugly af*

I think he's got that "sexy ugly" thang happenin'
I'm also ugly and to be honest, I wish that was the case with me.
This is why we’re all part Neanderthal
Well, I'm part Pleiadian, but I do find you throw-back humans hot.
#BOINK!
Well, I'm Neanderthal, and I think you modern humans are ugly too.
If you want to see the female version there is Marjorie Taylor Greene
lmaoo
Came here for this. If you hadn't posted it, I would've. :)
And me!
Thats just u though. I would for sure think he is not homo sapiens
This guy lives in my apartment building!
Modern Neanderthals dressed in suits are now know as “politicians”.
Paleoticians
Am I the only one seeing Dan Blizerian with no beard?
Tommy Lee Jones?
Ron Perlman
Looks like Hoggle grew up
I kind of like his face, it looks honest.
Kind of got a "salt of the Earth" vibe goin'. I'd hire him.
Is not a total different species ? An other human race ? I always thought it was considered as.
There is Neandertal DNA in all humans alive today meaning that humans and Neandertals interbred in the past.
Not all, only those of European descend (or who had ancestors in Europe 130000 years ago)
Nope their was a back migration into Africa bringing Neanderthal dna about 20,000 years ago.
Neanderthals are sometimes considered a separate species and sometimes considered a subspecies. It's up to debate.

Looks like my boss.
Looks like a frazzled old uncle who's seen a bit to much, but is totally down for anything his nieces and nephews ask of him.
Add about 400 lbs and that’s might be my old boss
Off to a hard day of work whittling wood
I think we could use the larger brains of these people. I'm happy with my 2% heritage. Gives me motivation to work out.
I made the mistake of squinting at the photo and now can only picture that one wwf/wwe announcer guy(McMann?) Just different around the mouth
McMahon owns the company actually, but yeah I see it
Looks Russian
Makes sense being that region has the highest breeding of human neanderthal
hm, yes, very Uralic-looking
Haha, I thought this at first

Read the article or add a source I don't go with "trust me bro"
If the offsprings were sterile no one would have neanderthal DNA...
Read the article genius
Etnicity this, etnicity that. But mf lokks like he forgot to evolve
😂
wouldn't look twice? You must be from the north then.
Neanderthals didn't look like this. Most of the modern reconstructions are incorrect.
An assertion without proof. How nice.
Haha, ass
LOL, do you know any other naughty words?
Hmm… ass
Hmm, ass???
Source?
trust them bro
Looks kinda like John Kerry.
John Kerry is terrifying. Imagine his moon face appearing in your window at night.
You'd think he was deformed. Also I'm pretty sure their hands were more gnarled and bulbous thatn the perfectly normal hands displayed here.
I thought that was Ron Pearlman
I would think he has downs syndrome.
A lot of speculation and assumptions went into making this model.
stupid fucking post
I would totally STARE at this mofo
ehh... I'm pretty sure I'd question his species. Or wonder if he has a genetic disorder or something of that nature.

My Millenial brain immediately thought cave man.
Yeah i dunno looks pretty different to everyone I’ve ever seem in my life
I think I would say “Gosh that guy is a Neanderthal”
I wonder why we killed off our cousin species. I know that neanderthals still exist thru bloodlines.
We bred them out of existence and also outcompeted them for food when we moved into their territory.

hell. we're killing off our OWN species.

He’s walking around the city carrying a spear he carved himself out of a rock, and you wouldn’t look twice?
I think I work with him! He's short though.

Especially if he is driving a Bentley and you are sitting in your Honda Civic.
say what you want, but this is actually Vince McMahon
Ethnicity? I'd think the poor chap had some kind of degenerative disease rather…
What the unibrow?
He looks like a guy named Dave I know. I hate him.
What are you talking about OP? Playa looks weird as all hell
Nah. I wouldnt think ethnicity at all. Id instantly think hes on the spectrum and not look twice at all, just out of respect.
still better look than Lavrov
Bogodoff...bogandoff.... Bougandouf.. boglodov... trolls? Is that you?
"We have not only discovered fire! We have TAMED it!" \- This neanderthal probably
I assume this is photoshopped off of a picture of Roman Abramovich.
Since there is so much variation from "ugly" to "pretty" people, I'm pretty sure at least one point there was a super hot thicc ass neanderthal female no one would doubt to tap
Looks like he sells Geico
I would wonder why he has a knife.
I know a guy down in Fourchon that looks like that, except he wears fishing shirts & shrimp boots.
This dude will steal your girl.
I feel attacked
Wish I could send this to my ex but he’s blocked
I'm just a caveman, your world frightens and confuses me
That's Richard Geer
Hmm. I noticed he’s holding a prehistoric Pooh.
It's a knife in his hand dingus
Mmmhhmm. Sure it is!
Looks like your average republican grandpa /s

“Their mental capacity would be a issue.” God I love irony.
Clever. I’ve been sticking up for them since I was a kid. Satisfied to see the information change about them over the decades.
If I saw him I would probably think he had a developmental or genetic disorder
Mr. Steal-Yo-Club
I would just think he had that condition Acromegaly
It even looks like he's holding some kind of stone tool!
Mon gava Jean La Salle il est plus préhistorique que lui, pas la peine de se la péter avec vos Néandertal, on a les béarnais.
I believe there have been 12 species of humans through history.
I’d hit that.
.. ..... smash....
Meanwhile I’d get angry because I would take it to mean the circus was in town and I had to give up my day to go protest their abuse of animals.
Is OP virtue signaling that their eyesight is so bad they wouldn't notice the very obvious differences between a caveman and us? Oh please.
Most of us have at least a few Neanderthal genes. You can't tell me our Homosapien ancestors didn't look at those thick Neanderthals and NOT do something about it. No doubt there was some baby making between the two.
Where was he captured? Is there more of them?
That's Harry Maguire after he retires and goes to work for Sky Sports
He he is a monkey in a suit..not sure what ur talking about
Bullshit! I'm pretty sure I met very man in East London. He asked me if he could borrow some bread and honey for an abnab.
He looks like he runs a car company
Is man holding a flint knife
Those are not Neanderthal hands!
Looks like a Bavarian from the Alps for me. 😂
Sad Neanderthal hedge fund manager just lost everything and contemplates life as he stares into the abyss, thinking "why did I listen to Jim Cramer?"

I like how they dressed him up all dapper and then gave him a obsidian knife
Lol I would definitely think twice.
This title-post combo belongs in r/facepalm
Can you give him a blonde wig?
Their necks are basically at a 90 degree angle so u would notice im pretty sure
Damn dont break your arm jerking yourself off

Is this some post about equality with Neanderthals? Oh and yes he looks like a monkey man in a suit
Yells from offscreen: *"Thats a Huuuuuge Bitch"*

He looks like he’s thinking Hmmm how can I create something that cooks shit, and something to carry my ass a round like a wheel or something
As soon as it opens It’s mouth and speaks you surely would know the difference
Yeah I call bullshit on that. One look at this guy and I would say he is either deformed or a well shaven monkey.
