Loading...

@sureshmike19427 1513-1490= 23
38+23= 61 :)

@sureshmike19427 Your math is uncorrect! 61*
-
look its a fun thing, but what use of this information is there? other than now we can have actors in movies look more like da vinci?
and the age error is something you really should check before you do this talk
-
@hudd06 Nose grows real big when you age. They younger you are the smaller your nose. Look at any old woman's nose and you'll see that the knob at the end's real big, which is rarely the case with young women.
-
What does he mean when he says the portraits are "en face, three quarters" (or something like that)?
-
Anything new? This is only marginally more-compelling than most theories.
And it leaves out major works that are mightily better contenders. This made it to TED?? Meh.
-
A good theory. Thanks for the upload.

nice job sammy.
you totally outsmarted this expert with unnecessary insults and NO EVIDENCE supporting YOUR case whatsoever.
this might not be lab science, but it IS forensic science (which is used for figuring out what's true in history).
goodness, think before you type.
