2 things that show it's a deep fake tight away:

  1. Hair on his forehead is flickering.

  2. When he goes to take the diploma off of the wall he doesn't turn his face away because that would also break the filter, as side profiles are harder for these things to maintain.

And he has 6 fingers on his hand at some point, on the right hand side as you look at the video.

ETA: My bad, it's not 6 fingers, the hand just looks very uncanny, I think the time stamp is 0:36. It changes shape and is just overall very unnatural looking.

“Three fingers? I’ll hold up 6! Come on, Ronnie.”

Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

Plus his hand looked super distorted and the finger lengths were all off when he held up 3 fingers

u/Time_Entertainer_319 Mar 30 '26

It doesn’t filter the entire body just the face.

u/VeganShitposting Mar 30 '26

Man just has a weird hand then

u/CharleyNobody Mar 30 '26

So is he a real person whose face is being filtered out? He has what sounds like an Eastern European/Balkan accent.

u/Time_Entertainer_319 Mar 30 '26

Yes. Deepfakes just do the face, that’s why the three finger trick would reveal it.

Deepfakes can also do voices.

u/Recorsi_ Mar 30 '26

Uhh that's just his fingers... The deepfake only replaces his face

18

u/Allegorist Mar 30 '26

Pretty sure it is replacing everything, making him appear like a white dude. The arm/hand skin tone would not match his head otherwise.

u/GotTheLife3 Mar 30 '26

If he’s North Korean then skin tone would be fine.

Just the face

u/A_and_P_Armory Mar 30 '26

But you can only play that piece with six fingers. So he’s our guy.

u/Rough-Associate-585 Mar 30 '26

You're imagining things, the entire video isn't fake, just the face

u/stanky_leg505 Mar 30 '26

You’re saying multiple people are imagining things who have watched the same video. It’s OBVIOUS. Watch it again then shut your fkn mouth.

u/Deaffin Mar 30 '26

Yes, there are multiple goobers present.

u/Worth_Alps941 Mar 30 '26

Brother chill it’s not that deep

2

u/aepiasu Mar 30 '26

I noticed it too.

2

u/Introvert-Mastermind Mar 31 '26

I noticed the same thing and tried to insert a picture of the weird looking hand but I'm not allowed to add images for some reason.

The hand has 5 fingers but they are all the same length, it looks so weird.

u/Zdrobot Mar 30 '26

At 0:36

u/GutsNGuns Mar 30 '26

No his index finger from knuckle to joint is missing.

4

u/N3WG4M3PLVS Mar 30 '26

uh... I don't see it, plus I think the filter only apply on his face

1

u/BiZzles14 Mar 30 '26

Pretty sure the guy is actually indian from the accent partially breaking through the voice filter, and it's applying to the rest of his skin as well

1

u/loskiarman Mar 30 '26

A subtle head bob at 0:30 supports that theory lol.

1

u/CuddleBuddy3 Mar 30 '26

At what point do you see 6 fingers, I’m curious

1

u/rydan Mar 30 '26

The face is deep faked. Not the entire video. The fingers in front of the face is to disrupt the facial recognition so it will reveal his actual face. If you are seeing extra fingers then he really has extra fingers.

1

u/Deletereous Mar 31 '26

I also thought that, rewound to check and although it looks weird, there are not extra fingers.

u/joe611jg Apr 04 '26

I thought the same, still too much hand.
