***** But Okinawan can be really dark, and Chinese living clos to Russian border can be really really pale. Majority of Japanese actually live on the same latitude as central Chinese.

[@jxw32]

***** I guess the Japanese you met are different than ones I met, Japanese at school I attended don't have better skins, they do have good makeup products that cover up their pimples and other blemishes, look better from afar, but up close I could see all the pimples under layer of makeups, many Chinese on the other hand don't use whole lot of make up products. maybe that's why.

[@dlightbourne4056]

As a Black American I decided to watch to educate myself on the subject. I did not learn much but had fun watching. It is interesting to note that there are struggles within the Asian population to distinguish between your different ethnic groups. Blacks can usually tell if we are from America or the Caribbean or European or such. Much is from the way one carries themselves. Mannerisms as well as ones features and appearance. With intermingling of cultures and people picking choices outside their heritage makes it difficult sometimes to tell which is which. With the face quiz I wish you had the answer after each one as I forgot what I guessed for most. I did get more than a couple right but again they were just guesses. Your video was amusing. Thank you.

[@DatGrA2b]

Came for same reason I'm pretty good with Koreans but it's hard to to tell Japanese from Chinese

[@danieldefo8170]

" Blacks can usually tell if we are from America or the Caribbean or European or such. Much is from the way one carries themselves. Mannerisms as well as ones features and appearance." Ok fair enough. But in this video, they were trying tp identify total strangers by just a headshot photo. Do you think it is possible to identify where Black person came from by just a photo? I don't know for sure but I have my doubts...

[@stefanmiddelton7626]

Try to tell who is Nigerian and Cameroonian from a photo,or a Zimbabwean and a Ivorian. Blacks from America, are mixed,so you have subtle clues. Blacks from Africa on the other hand,are harder to distinguish. Native populations are harder to guess because they aren't as mixed.

[@iakadayrneh]

But all the blacks whether ,from Jamaica, Haiti or the United States both share ancestry from west African ethnicities.Well east Asian have been different ethnicity for nearly 10,000 years. It's more difficult to tell blacks apart.

[@Pooky1991]

I was going to say something similar, except even us Black people can't tell sometimes unless someone has an accent or someone outright states where their from, for example, if someone is from Haiti or an African country. There's also Afrolatinos.

DinosaurFilms That's not racist. If it were, then saying that Greg Davies looks a lot like Rik Mayall would then also be racist, just because they're both white and British. People can look like other people, and pointing that out shouldn't be considered racist.

[@dinosaurfilms7425]

Ela Mongrella Yes of course you are absolutely right. It was rather meant jokingly in this context because in the video they themselves aren't always able to distinguish asian ethnicities. Therefore one could say that asians indeed do all look the same (not really but sometimes) and therefore it is funny to say that he does look like Jackie Chan.

I can primarily tell by their name or listening their language. A few times I’ve been able to tell solely on physique, but it’s usually about a 35-40% probability chance I’m able to tell nationality solely by look. I’m Hispanic, btw.

[@crispychaos6768]

One of my coworkers thought I was part Hispanic. And some of my coworkers thought I was Viet. But even though my last name is Viet I'm mostly sure I'm full Chinese. My mom's family definitely from China. My dad's family is Chinese but both sets of his grandparents immigrated to Vietnam and changed their last names because of a rice famine. So he was born and raised in Vietnam to a Chinese family. He could speak Viet, Cantonese, and Mandarin fluently. Whenever I visited my dad's side of the family they spoke Cantonese and lived amongst the Chinese community in SF.

[@Miumiu0404]

I'm Japanese and I can never tell someone if they're Chinese or Korean or Japanese if I meet them by simply looking. It's easy to tell in pop culture or tv because makeup trends and fashion styles are amazingly different in China, Korea and Japan.

[@goodaimshield1115]

Sane happens to me in Europe, tbh. You can usually tell Northern and Southern European apart, because soitherb Europeans tend to have dark brown hair and hazel or brown eyes, while Northern Europeans tend to have lighter hair and eye colour. Also, Northern Europeans are talller. Some people can also make distinctions between west and eastwrn Europeans. I however, can barely tell the difference. Also, though you can broadly diferenciate between grouosnof Northern vs Southern Europeans, when it comes to individuals is a bit more difficult, since Eurooe is a gradient, so most southerners won't look out if place in central European countries. Is he Spanish or Southern German? Is he Portuguese or Serbian? Is he Romanian or French? Is he English or Hungarian? Well, good luck guessing.

Jacky Phantom Ainus are austronesian, but most Japanese do not have austronesian blood, and most certainly do not look like that. You tell me not to cherry pick yet you are doing the same as well. Most Japanese people do not look like Ken Hirai. Taiwanese people lived among Taiwanese aborigines for hundreds of years, do you think they look like Taiwanese aborigines? In general, no, some do, but most don’t. Similarly, of course some Japanese look austronesian due to admixture with Ainus but most do not. I’d say 85% of Japanese people do not look like that. Like I said, Chinese people can look the most diverse. We have the smallest eyes and the biggest eyes of East Asia. I know you’re a Japanese self hater who wants to be Southeast Asian, and want the physical features that Southeast Asians have but in reality most Japanese 23andme and Ancestry tests often have Korean lineage, not really SE Asians. While Chinese DNA can range from Mongolian to Malay.

[@adelaidehamburger4810]

In my opinion, Japanese people generally have sharper facial features than Chinese people. Not more Caucasoid looking, but sharper looking facial features. Chinese people don't have sharp facial features as Japanese people, and a lot of Chinese girls have long legs.

[@erenyeagerist7681]

That's what I think. When I watch Japanese old films and drama series from the 1950's-1980's, I notice that Japanese actors & actresses look like caucasians especially Toshiro Mifune. They have double eyelids, pointier and bridge nose and sharp jaws. I even thought that those Japanese actors & actresses from 1950's-1980's are half caucasians. Then, I found out that Japan has different types of people namely *Ainu, Jomon and Yayoi.* The typical Japanese we're used to seeing nowadays have Yayaoi features. Ainu and Jomon have double eyelids, pointier nose, sharp features and light skin looking like caucasians at some point.
