When Brandon McCarthy asked Twitter users whether they agree that people in the past aged faster, he didn't know he was opening Pandora's box. But what's done is done. Everyone immediately started posting pictures that support this theory, and they haven't stopped yet.

We're talking 24-year-old soccer players who look like they're going to break in half when they kick the ball, young moms and dads who could pass off as great-grandparents... Heck, someone even included Pablo Escobar in the collection. Continue scrolling and check out the most important evolutionary discovery of our age for yourself!

    Women would flock to the the ice rinks and throw their panties at the "Duke". Later on, men became so enamored they would throw their hats. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the origin of the hat trick!

    To be fair, if you look him up, he started the show with his hair and beard brown/black, and he looked his age. Pictures of him 20+ years later make him look younger than this, too, so I'm thinking this was mostly for his character/acting persona at the time.

    I think some people are born with the face they're going to have when they get older and they grow into it eventually (if that makes any sense!).
