I'll say it agaihn, this is what a Neanderthal actually looked like:

They may well have been capable of speech (crows, African grey parrots, and Southern Grackles are all speech capable), but they were not related to us at all. Their DNA is halfway between ours and that of a chimpanzee and there is no reason to believe that any other hominid ever had DNA closer to ours than that.

The real story...;
