I do see the correlation for athletes suspected of doping though...
but wasn't this topic being covered in the 'contador's face' thread already if someone feels like tracking down that one....?

I thought of Michael Phelps when I saw the Lantern Jaw terminology.

See any James Bond villain(s). They all have the endogenous (natural) acromegaly. Many die early because of their genetic pituitary gland disorder.
Not just the jaw. Can be seen in the frontal bossing of the brow, and a very sharp brow ridge. When the brow starts protruding (frontal bossing), it can start to replicate a low level, minor simian brow. But this is the CHANGE, not the natural bone structure. Some have natural bone structure with a genetic brow, which is a simian brow structure. Endogenous. Natural.
This is about the change.
