People who film such videos rarely know about GM. She must be on the southern side of the spectrum anyway, 'cause she mentions Greek ancestry.

nothing shocking after all. she took it too literally though - it doesn't mean that she has recent Italian or Greek ancestry. also 23andme stupidly labelled the Balkan component as "Greek & Balkan" - it should be just Balkan since most Greeks on 23andme rather score Western Asian as highest component, not the "Greek & Balkan" one. anyway, interesting how she did get connections with as far as Persia and South Asia but not with Eastern Europe

She says she has distant ancestry from Greece.

This is not true. All mainland Greeks score Balkan by far. The Islanders score high Italian and West Asian but also high Balkan. Even some Anatolian Greeks score considerable Balkan percentage.

Absolutely false.
