Tom Brady has a Huge Head



I always thought Tom Brady looked a little different. Yeah there's the cleft chin and omnipresent stubble, but I always thought it was something else. Then it hit me, hes got a huge head. Like really huge.










Look at how his helmet sits a little higher on his head than it does for other players. Normally, the eyebrows are not exposed. For Brady, his eyebrow and some of his forehead are visible when his helmet is on. Some people suggested that it might be his hair holding his helmet up. Good point, he does seem to have some poofy sort of hair. So I forgot about it until I saw this picture.


Now I will resist the urge to make fun of the fact that his head is so big it is sticking out of the top of the picture. The real significance of this is to show that his hair is slicked back - this is all head. Also, we have someone who is in the same area as him to compare head sizes. Lets begin the breakdown.





I added in approximately where his head would be if it had been pictured. Now, from that I measured his head length to be about 225 pixels. Next lets compare it to Gisele's head.



Her head is just 181 pixels (yes I used pythagorean theorem to figure this out). That means Brady's head is 44 pixels bigger than her head. His head is roughly 25% bigger than her head. And thats just talking the vertical difference. Who knows the volumetric measurments of a head of that magnitude. His head might have the volume of 1.5-3 heads in there, we just dont know. Now, its entirely possible that Gisele just has a small head, but until someone proves that to me Mr. Brady just has a huge dome.
