Idk man, I've always looked way younger than my age when shaved, but not that extreme. Skin care or not, I would not want to look like that at 34.

That's Pierce Brosnan, famous for his role as Mister Doubtfire and the voice of Genie in Aladdin

Part of it, I'm sure, is that Thomas has babyface. Part of it, too, is that people don't smoke cigarettes, or drink as much as they used to, or generally live as hard of lives. Living through the 2000s, for example, isn't really as complicated perhaps, or troubling, as living through the Great Depression and World War II and the Cold War.

This can't be real...jesus

Smoking, alcohol, no sunscreen will still age up a person of today by 10 years.

Some people used to be born old. That's just how the world worked. Also, stupid fashion. Have you seen a photo of a woman college student in the 80s? They look 40.

Thomas is like a genetically engineered femboy for Hollywood billionaires.

No need to go out and molest nubile young boys in the Caribbean, this bad boy is of legal age and doesn't look a day past 15.

Like a human version of a toy dog, but with a genetically superior bussy.

These pictures are due to two things; genetics and lighting. Even though dude on right looks younger generally, if he was photographed in the same light as Connery they would look much closer in age.

Neat, not a shitpost.

Wow they look like two completely different people

The difference is 1 part genetics, 1 part skin care routines, 1 part sun protection habits, 7 parts a lifetime with or without smoking and being surrounded by people smoking at nearly all times.

Peter Capaldi and William Hartnell were same age bracket when they played the Doctor.

Amazing what not living through a depression and world war can do for ya

Here his is in dr no a year later looking more like he's 40 instead of 55, given he's in makup, but the crows-feet smile lines aren't doing him any favors.

and here he is 7 years later in 71 (41 years old) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Connery#/media/File:Sean_Connery_as_James_Bond_(1971).jpg

TBH, the effect on skin from smoking seem to hit like a truck in the 40's, that's gotta be severe tanning, smoking and some really rough genetics.

It's funny that culturally 34 was considered a middle aged man back then whereas 34 today feels like an old 20 something.

Sean is always cool, but I wonder how Thomas would look had he been smoking a pack a day for 20 years too.

The one on the right is also married to Elon Musk's twice divorce ex-wife. As in the wife married Elon, divorced him, married Elon again, divorced him, then marred the guy on the right.

How are even Connery's earlobes masculine?
