The guy on the left could be pretty close Proto Karelian type, and probsly a silvioid type too.

To compare here a duo of pics of my great grandfather and some dudes (Karelian dudes)

Thank You for the reply and the photos and the videos. The man on the left in my photo is the brother of my grandfather, and the other on the right is my grandfather. My grandfather had darker pigmentation than his brother, it is obvious also on the picture. I have never heard before about silvioid type? I have not others pictures of my grandfather unfortunately just this one attached.
