The golden ratio, first described by the ancient Greeks, refers to the formula of proportions that represents the most perfect facet mathematically.
British actor Robert Pattinson has been named the sexiest man on earth by researchers. The charming actor has the finest features according to the golden ratio of beauty.

His flawless looks have been compared to other Hollywood starlets, including Brad Pitt, Idris Elba, and David Beckham, but no one could surpass his score of 92.15%.
The list was compiled by plastic surgeon Dr. Julian De Silva, who used computer technology to calculate proportions.
“Robert Pattinson was the absolute winner when we looked at every element of the face for physical perfection.”
The most famous artists in history such as Leonardo da Vinci, Salvador Dali and Le Corbusier also used the golden ratio to create some of their masterpieces. To this day, scientists use the equation to prove that symmetry in nature provides a framework for traditional beauty.
According to De Silva, Pattinson is in the top five in almost every category because of his classically sculpted features and stunning sculpted jawline.
Henry Cavill, 36, was second, just 0.41 percentage points behind Pattinson, with a combined score of 91.64%.
