      Its really sad that this video isn't CC'd for real. My friend is deaf and can't be forced to hear. I find that buying into RUclips is useless because the vast majority of the channels are no CC or crap "youtube's attempt" at CC. I wish everyone was deaf because then, they'd get it.

      ​@@tpkyterooluebeck9224 First of all I want to say that I really agree with your comment and it would be very helpful if someone would take some time and create subs for this video or videos on youtube in general. It's not only helpful for deaf people, but also for people that like to train their brains to read and listen to English when they are not native speakers and to some degree with the help of google translate and "open transcript" option on youtube to even understand what the video is saying without even knowing the language. Also I wouldn't call the "youtube's attempt" crap, because if you think about it, it's amazing what a computer can do just by analyzing a sound. Imagine how many different accents there are and how differently people speak (loudness, pitch etc) and it still manages to get it right 90% of the times. I use it alot because many times I watch a video at x1.5 or x2 so I can finish it faster and having some kind of help on the bottom of my screen at all times is very helpful since I'm not a native English speaker (even though I believe I'm quite proficient at it) and I can miss some words due to pronunciaton (aka when British people speak :P ).
      Sorry for long comment, have a nice day! :)

      I mean her nose and general face shape are similar to the first model being shown, while her gums are bigger beneath the lips and her lower face is saggier though she has a pretty slim neck. Eye colour is, of course, different as well; Assuming her name is Mendez that could indicate brown eyes as being the originals, rather than blue eyes. Shoulder width and posture seem to match too. The old pictures show us that she has at least attempted to actually recreate her original hair colour, though it is now not looking so curly. Can't find something that would directly confirm that she is not the same woman shown to disguise as a man.

Even the skin... women have smooth skin, while men have more leathery skin - they will have to cover the neck, hands, and the face with a huge amount of makeup to cover this.

      How did Jesus Himself feel about this? In John 2:23-25 "Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many believed in His name when they saw the signs which He did; but Jesus DID NOT TRUST himself to them, because He knew all men and needed no one to bear witness of man; for He himself knew what was in man." Jesus was vulnerable to & trusted some people, like His disciples. But certainly not everyone.

      Haha, I agree . :) I have a book about gestures, it's a German book though, there are no translations. But it's called 'In 80 Fettnäpfchen um die Welt' by Françoise Hauser, it's about gestures, words, movements, gifts. And how all of those things can make you look like a total idiot in other countries (the translation would be; "Round the world in 80 blunders.")
      I also noticed the Irish/English/British/everyone across the pond, finds the opposite peace-sign offensive.
      Showing the index and middle finger, back-of-the-hand-towards-the-other-person.
      But when I was young, we'd use that symbol if we wanted to swear an oath.
      I'd say; 'I swear I won't steal any of your Pokémoncards while you're using the loo, you can trust me' and if the other kid had doubts, I'd make a "V" with my index and middle finger, aim it towards them, move the hand to the right side and of my head and spit through the "V." Multiple times if necessary.
      That meant 'I swear' and that was about as serious as an Unbreakable Vow in Harry Potter.

    yes those unique mannerisms must be addressed....I knew a fellow who came to a Halloween dance in a very good gorilla costume and NOBODY knew WHO it could be UNTIL we saw him get up and WALK to go get a drink. He had a unique strut and we ALL identified him immediately!

    The scary part about this is that this whole time that she had been being interviewed is that she could be in a disguise and be whole different person then we know.

      No offense to whoever is the real life person but she looks like a male here, even with the posture, broad shoulders and sitting posture opening their legs
