Neanderthals didn’t ride bucking broncos (as far as we know), but the Stone Age hominids did seem to have one thing in common with rodeo riders: injuries. In 1995, paleoanthropologists Thomas Berger and Erik Trinkaus, now at Washington University in St. Louis, noted that Neanderthals had a disproportionate number of injuries to their heads and necks. The same is true among modern rodeo riders. Just as these cowboys get too close for comfort to angry horses and bulls, Neanderthals’ hunting style—sneaking up on prey and jabbing them with heavy spears—brought their upper bodies within striking distance of large, hoofed animals.

Glad our ancestors did this.
Otherwise, they would've starved to death and we would not be here eating Lucky Charms in our recliners.

I don't like all that 'cereal' in my lucky charms. Just go with a bowl of milk and a bag of mini marshmallows.

I'm thinking the progressive metrosexual snowflakes would never have survived. that's what modern medicine has given us: Survival of idiots who would otherwise have been taken out by natural selection. I say "Clone the mammoths!" Bring 'em back!
