Some biologist in Poland said this:

"A scientist showed me a picture of an American boxer. He had all the traits of Neanderthal man. These people are among us. They are part of the human race, probably more prevalent once upon a time, but who still exist."

Big ups to whoever comes up with the best Polish invention for this item.
