Quite enjoyed doing this - takes a few minutes and is interesting to see how good you are at it.

My own score for those that like to compare:

You got 15 out of 20 correct

All those smiles have made me happy.

16/20, I tend to focus on the eyebrows/eyes.

 

[Haven]

I went for eye crinkles as my key but also cheeks play a part.

Good to know a few people are similar.

 

[KillCrazy]

Hmm I went along with how quickly the persons expression changed at the end of the clip. For most of my fake answers the person would go from a smiley back to an expressionless face very quickly.

Erm, 3...

Erm, 3...

Thank God I'm not the worst...

I usually went by whether I liked the person or not.

"You're a fucking fake bitch!"

 

[Angelic]

3? That's pretty far below even statistical chance

I make 10, so really no better than randomly guessing. Doesn't surprise me.

I got 12 without watching the video clips and going based purely on the initial picture

 

[Taffy]

I was pretty much yelling 'YOU FAKER!!!' at all the people who turned out to actually be genuine. Just as well the internet doesn't mirror real life or everybody would hate me

 

[Marqo]

12 here... Quite interesting to do things like this.

Better then I expected, I really had a hard time trying to pick between genuine or fake!

BTW, this is a very funny test

By that I assume you mean that its a collection of some of the strangest looking people ever to be found?
