The human race will one day split into two species, with a superior, attractive upper class and a "goblin-like" under class, a top scientist has predicted.

Sexual selection could result in two distinct breeds of humans, according to evolutionary theorist Dr. Oliver Curry.

Curry believes that humans will reach their physical peak in the year 3,000 when people will be between 6 feet and 7 feet tall and live up to 120 years.

After this, he believes the human race will begin to regress.

"Physical features will be driven by indicators of health, youth and fertility that men and women have evolved to look for in potential mates," Curry says in his report commissioned for cable TV channel Bravo.

He predicts that 100,000 years in the future, descendants of the genetic upper class will be tall, slim, healthy, attractive, intelligent and creative.

Meanwhile, the underclass humans will have evolved into dimwitted, ugly, squat, goblin-like creatures.

Curry, from the London School of Economics, also says racial differences will be a thing of the past as interbreeding produces a single, coffee-colored skin tone.

But by 10,000 years from now, our reliance on technology will have begun to dramatically change our appearance. Medicine will weaken our immune system, and we will begin to appear more childlike.

"The report suggests that the future of man will be a story of the good, the bad and the ugly," Curry said.

So says an "expert" Duh!
