And this made me wonder:
Given his obvious physical differences, and with modern technology and communication being what it is, are there ways he could he stay a member of modern society and also avoid attention?
When I was at UC Berkeley, I was on a varsity team so was often in the varsity locker room. Most of Cal's offensive and defensive linemen could pass for, or maybe were, neanderthal. They were all wide and hairy and would on occasion drag their knuckles. So, on a day to day basis, I don't think they would have any problem passing in modern society.
Of course, a couple were so big that they more resembled Sasquatch. How a 300 lb. man can be that quick on his feet is mind boggling.
