According to a mathematical formula developed by ancient Greeks, Robert Pattinson has been proclaimed the most handsome man in the world.

Utilizing this formula, Pattison's facial features such as eyes, lips, chin, jaw, eyebrows, and nose were measured against other celebrities and came most proximate to the ancient Greeks' idea of a visually pleasing face.
Pattinson is very well known for his portrayal of the vampire Edward Cullen in the teen romance movie Twilight and its many sequels.

De Silva explained that the Twilight actor came out victorious when all elements of his face were measured for physical perfection.
"[Pattinson] was in the top five for nearly all the categories because he has such classically shaped features and a [wonderfully] chiseled jaw," he said, adding, that his score was below average because "his lips which are a little thin and flat".
In second place on the list was 39-year-old Henry Cavill at 91.64% with Da Silvia giving praise to the actor's "lips and forehead" and his "matching ratio of nose and lips and his eye position."
However, the Man of Steel star was scored down because of the position of his eyes, with the Doctor explaining: "He scored poorly for his eye spacing."
Following behind Pattison and Cavill were Bradley Cooper at 91.08% and Brad Pitt at 90.51%. In order, the names making up the rest of the top ten are George Clooney, Hugh Jackman, David Beckham, Idris Elba, Kanye West, and Ryan Gosling.
