Head trauma for the Man in the Moon

SPACE.com -- The Origins Of The Man In The Moon

This story is incredible. Not that I've ever believed in the Man in the Moon, but let's go with the analogy anyway. Scientists from Ohio University discovered the reason why the Man has these features is because on freakin' massive rock knocked him in the back of the head. In fact, he was hit so hard from behind that he's been living with a bulge on his face ever since because of the shockwave that rock sent through his skull. That's not all. When that happened, it messed things up so badly that all of the layers in his head were disrupted. Imagine it. Hit in the back of the head, the brain shifts towards the front of the face, and then some blood in the skin breaks through and floods some craters on the front. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why we can see the Man in the Moon today.
