You can tell what geographical region of the world someone or their ancestors originated from via just their photo.
Skin colour is a very good descriptor for that.

Of course things like colonialism and migration in the last few hundreds years has muddied that water significantly.

And there is actually a good, scientific reason for it.

You can? So my friend who grew up in Iceland and had a German father an Indonesian mother, and looks more Native American than anything else. You could tell his ancestry is German and Indonesian by his photo? You'd be the first. I have another friend whose skin tone is significantly darker than his brother who has the same mother and father as him. You wouldn't even know they're brothers just by looking at them they look so dissimilar.

This is why a sample size of one is absolutely terrible.

Even though I agree with your sample of one being terrible, you also ignored the fact he is talking about no mixed heritage.
