    …the shadow from what? There’s no shadow under the chin, so light isn’t just from above. We see a bright highlight/glare down the left side of the tattooed area. To the left of the bottom of what appears to be a bulge it’s slightly shaded, then the bulge gets bright again, then shadow to the right. It sure looks like it’s actually bulging to me.

      He’s sitting on a couch. The shadow from the lamp on the end table next to the couch, which would be below his shoulder. That is why the front part of his neck is shadowed, because he’s leaning away from the camera to give it a good view of his neck, meaning he’s leaning away from the light source.

      I agree, its either massively blown up / inflamed from being recently tattooed… or this dude has a goiter?

      I don’t know, but this dude’s neck is not anatomically normal.
