"I do believe there's a significant possibility of there being a hoaxer in these woods." Just my opinion and totally understanding that others could conclude otherwise (if you were drunk or high). And I do believe you have correctly identified the mask used. I'm guessing that boot black was applied to the mask to make the face more consistently dark. Listening to the video (so others don't have to), the purported pictures aren't even shown until around the seven minute mark and the "witness" is having a conversation with "Nef" (so recording audio) but only taking stills, not videotaping so that the super-true, really lifelike movement (of people rearranging the props) can be seen. Amazing he has 80,000 subscribers on YouTube. And very sad.

Sasquatch Ontario, ran by Mike Paterson, released a YouTube video two years ago titled 'The Face of Nef', which featured a photo he took of an alleged sasquatch. Here's the photo in question: Even though I believe this is an obvious hoax due to the static facial expressions and the features of the subjects having that cheap material quality to them that your average modern-day Halloween mask has, I still wasn't satisfied. I've actually been looking around for a while now and I'm almost positive I found the masks used in this photo. I managed to find this listing on Facebook Marketplace of a Halloween mask that looks exactly like the face of the subjects in the 'Face of Nef' photo. Here's the mask I found: Here's a comparison of the two: Additionally, this mask that I found appears that it was listed near Creemore, Ontario, the same province where Mike Paterson lives. I know the common consensus is that this photo was hoaxed, but I hope this helps to confirm it anyways.
