That's the point! They look very similar.

[Tongio]

Greek's ears more" fat"(european hunter gatherer's trait),iranians ears more rat-like, greek nose tip more upturned(more cartilaginous structure), greek lips "cupid's bow" shape , iranians lips flat, iranians head shape narrower and taller than the greek one from frontal view, the greek has redish undertone present in his skin that the iranian lacks.
Other diferences hard to explain, brow ridge to nose bridge angle for example is much bigger on the iranian, sugesting a less pronounced brow ridge, the jaw angle is much higher in the greek giving his jaw a less square look.

Different shoes, and prop. different shoe size

The Iranian has more regular chisled features, you could even say more British facial features, if either of these were to pass in Britain(which they dont) it would be the Iranian imo. Iranian is Med with proto iranid, Greek is pontid and berid.

[Faklon]

There is some differences in the nose-eye area but I generally agree that the Caucasoid diversity is overrated, even some native Welshmen can look like Mexicans in comparison to both of them (especially in the right angle and tanning).

Luke Evans is among the darkest 10-15% of Welshmen. Handsome guy btw.

The Yamnaya were half caucasus/ Iran neolithic after all .

[Zhulta]

i think they fall into a proto mediterranid spectrum. the greek guy is mostly berid, the iranian seems proto iranid

[Melonman]

lots of iranians, specially in northwest(or mostly just in northwest iran?), can easily look like southeast europeans. I noticed this(though many also do look different, with southeast europeans having many who can easily pass in England and Scandinavida + germanic countries)

I don't think I asked you but interesting to know. We are just documenting Eurasian diversity here.

I have a riddle, how would you classify these two?

For me the ginger is a craniometrically Arabid and the darker one craniometrically Nordic, I'm open to an expert opinion. This music video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lF3zt_Gj3uk) for more frames, feel free to attach a vocaroo.

They both look pseudo-Mestizo to me.

[Rohanspiritual]

Greek is ugly af
Iranian looks presentable

[Tooting Carmen]

Isn't the fact that one is seen as White and the other as non-White despite looking very similar indeed nonsensical?

[Russki]

Iranian looks more European.

Greek looks more Turanid/Turk/Mong.

Tsipras (the Greek guy, former PM) is Cham from his father's side (village Loupsista) and Eastern Thracian from his mom's side (village Artesko).

He is not the average Iranian. Dont lie

I never said he was. But types like him are at least 10-15% of Persians.

[Melonman]

greeks and iranians can look a lot like each other


the main difference is that iranians of course have a much higher amount of non-euro passing people and even a handfull of ''south asian passing people''

here's crowd pic of tehran persians

[zebruh]

They look close but when the 2nd guy smiles you can tell he is not iranian

[GoalPoacher]

Iranian guy is not atypical for West Asia standards. He's not even that light or Euro looking. Some people in this platform are really delusional about West Asians

He may be commonplace enough, but he is not average.

[Uranous]

Just Mediterannean related with anatolian farmers , Yamanaya and western hunter are more related with nordic and central european phenotypes
