The filmmakers did this on purpose, as Alexander was Macedonian, which at the time were considered much more rural and uncivilized than their Greek neighbors, and hypothesized that they sounded more like Celts, so they decided an Irish accent would be more realistic than anything else.

According to a survey of 5,000 men and women conducted by OnePoll, the Irish accent is the sexiest. According to OnePoll, the top ten world’s sexiest accents of 2019 are: Irish. Italian.

Brad Pitt was considered for the role of Hephaistion. He turned down the role due to personal concerns with the character. Heath Ledger was originally considered for the role of Alexander. Oliver Stone claimed that the horses were more dangerous while filming the battle scenes than the elephants.

Alexander, as far as America is concerned, has by now failed definitively. Its director has a clear explanation. From day one, audiences didn’t show up.” What he is referring to is the film’s discreet suggestions – by all accounts they are incredibly discreet – that Alexander was in love with Haphaestion.

Apart from a tendency to view Macedonians and Greeks as one people, the film is more or less historically accurate—aided and abetted by the Oxford scholar Robin Lane Fox, who has no doubt disgraced himself among his colleagues by penning a “making of” book.

According to Alexander’s biographer Plutarch, the monarch’s “great size and powerful physique made him appear as suitably mounted on an elephant as an ordinary man looks on a horse.” Porus was nearly 7 feet tall, towering over Alexander, who was about 5 feet, average size for a Greek man of that era.

Depending on the type of Spartan the height of a Spartan II (fully armoured) is 7 feet tall (spartan 3) 6’7 feet tall (spartan II) 7 feet tall (spartan 4), and have a reinforced endoskeleton.

*Alexander’s physical description is variously reported as of him having curly, dark blonde hair, a prominent forehead, a short, jutting chin, fair to reddish skin, an intense gaze, and a short, stocky, tough figure. It has been commented upon more than once that Alexander had one dark brown eye and one blue eye!

Alexander the Great, depicted in typical Hellenistic style in this alabaster bust from Egypt, was probably physically ordinary. By most accounts, he was short and stocky. Many historians also think Alexander had heterochromia—one eye was brown, the other blue.

Yes, natural purple eyes are possible. There are many different shades of blues and greys out there and many in-between colors. Although very rare, some people’s natural pigmentation can even be violet or purple in color. The lighter your eye color, the more light that is reflected off of them.

These women below, according to us, have the most beautiful eyes in the world.

Mila Kunis has heterochromia, 2 different colored eyes. Left eye hazel – right eye green.

Complete heterochromia is definitely rare — fewer than 200,000 Americans have the condition, according to the National Institutes of Health.

Central heterochromia may be a rare condition, but it’s typically benign. In most cases, it doesn’t affect vision or cause any health complications.

Eye Color Statistics From Most Common to Most Rare

While men were 1.4 times more likely than women to wish their partner had a different eye color, both genders favored the color blue. Surprisingly, green, brown, and hazel were more preferred on a partner than gray eyes – the color respondents considered the most attractive.

Gray eyes are most common in Northern and Eastern Europe. Scientists think gray eyes have even less melanin than blue eyes.

Dogs possess only two types of cones and can only discern blue and yellow – this limited color perception is called dichromatic vision.

5 of the World’s Rarest Dog Breeds

1. Norwegian Lundehund. Dating back to the Ice Age, the Norwegian Lundehund is recognised as one of the rarest dogs on the planet due to its unique characteristics which aren’t shared by any other breed.
2. Lagotto Romagnolo.

They are best when they see a whole face. Dogs (like people) are good at using information about the configuration of the eyes, nose, and mouth. If dogs are shown only the eyes, the nose, or the mouth, they are best at learning to discriminate between faces when shown the eyes rather than the nose or mouth.

19 Breeds with Blue Eyes

• Weimaraner. The AKC breed standard allows for blue-gray eyes, though most Weims have the soulful amber eyes we’re used to seeing.
• Husky.
• Shetland Sheepdog.
• German Shepherd Dog.
• Dalmatian.
• Border Collie.
• Australian Shepherd.
• Dachshund.

Occasionally dogs with black pigment also have amber eyes, but in general they’re found just on livers and dilutes. Amber eyes vary from light brown (overlapping with the lighter eyes sometimes found in black-pigmented dogs) to yellow, yellow-green or grey.

Wolves can only have appearing blue eyes when they have a genetic defect (such as cataracts, which is really rare). In a natural way, wolf eyes never come in blue. The Iberian wolf you mentioned most likely had two different coloured eyes due to genetic defects.

Siberian Huskies aren’t the only dogs with blue eyes. Several factors can cause blue eyes in various dog breeds. Siberian Huskies are among the only breeds that can have blue eyes completely independent of the merle gene.
