 This guy is 69 years old, but half of his face looks much, much older than that. He was a trucker and, for 28 years, his face received much more sunlight on the left side, resulting on premature aging. We all knew that being exposed to the sun makes you age prematurely, but seeing the dramatic difference in a single face is just stunning. His condition is called unilateral dermatoheliosis, from the Greek dermis and helios, skin and sun. It's also called photoaging, and it results from chronic exposure to the sun's UVA and UVB rays. In his case, it only affected the left side of his face because of his work. As he drove, he received much many hours of sunlight through the left window of his vehicle. http://gizmodo.com/5914862/shocking-pro ... rematurely_________________ The beginning of knowledge is the discovery of something we do not understand. - Frank Herbert Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind. - Albert Einstein Knowledge is a powerful weapon, but only when its user can wield it.

I always feel sad for those people who overuse the tanning bench, their whole skin becomes like that.

This is quite interesting I didn't know the sun can this. Human age now depends on the sunlight.

It shocks me how little people know about the sun being bad in large doses.
