Vladimír Menšík (1929-1988), actor
Especially in 1970s-1980s, the most polular Czech comedian and entertainer ever.
:thumb001:
He looks SSA influenced, although 1920s when he was born, almost 100 per cent of Czechs knew black people only from pictures :)


I have following questions:
1) Can you classify him?
2) How much (percentually) SSA influenced he looks like?
3) Where he can pass?

He looks like a quadroon in the last picture for some reason

He could pass in Southern Italy and Greece as atypical (look at he's nose fgs)

It's just coincidence. I'd say gorid.

I have seen ones a movie with him. Exotic Gorid. Probably some Gypsy?

Gypso is a possibility.

I don't see any obvious Negroid influence in him. Just rare combinations of features + not out of question Gypsy element added in?

Not Negrid influenced, just ugly. Gorid.

IM's lost brotha.

I have to contradict you, he's not gorid at all, he's berid.

I know him. Reflected about posting him already.
There are exotic looking people in Central Europe. I am one of them, he is another.
I guess he is kind of dark Borreby type

Thanks to you all, for your anwers.
Gypsy (Roma) influences is in Central Europe more possible than SSA.
Nevertheless I can see Roma people almost daily, but Menšík looks IMHO different.

At following video he told funny stories about his childhood at village.
His first sentence is that another children nicknamed him "Neger", because of his look (0:07)

alpine, nothing negroid about him at all.
Have you ever seen Somalis or Ethiopians, or even Masais, they are have far narrower and finer features than this guy, he looks just like a normal central european.
All races have variations among them, he has nothing negroid in his bone structure, neither features.

Nothing SSA, especially seeing the picture of him at a young age. Nothing gypsy either.

In some he looks pseudo - quadroon in other just mulatto.

No SSA, he is Gorid with a east Baltic component.
