Famous tongue

We had a discussion; What is the most famous chemist picture?


This picture of Mendeleev is quite famous.Well... famous... Chemists know this guy, but not everybody. A lot of people won't say :"aahh, that's Mendeleev," when they see this picture.

So, who is the most famous chemist? (We mean chemists that are famous for their scientific work, and not something else... like Margaret Thatcher.)

We believe it must be this chemist, most people who see this picture will say: "Hey, that's Curie". So this may be the most famous chemist picture.
And who is the most famous scientist? Newton? Darwin? No... It must be Einstein.

His formula is famous, his theory is famous, his brain is famous.

Even his tongue is famous. This may be the most famous scientist picture.
Did you know that Einstein was inpired by a chemist to pose in this manner?
Recognize him?


Sorry, a top 5 chemist tongues was a bit difficult to do.
