I had to find out more about this!
Check
out this answer by Dr. Arthur Perry, MD.:
“…scientists in Italy

Bones, stop growing after puberty and
muscle and fat cells also stop dividing. But cartilage - that’s the
plastic-like stuff in ears and noses - cartilage continues to grow until the

earlobes elongate from
gravity. And that makes ears look even larger.” read more
YIKES!
Long hair anyone?
What do ya say? Ever wondered about this one?
