15+ People Whose Age Is a Mystery

Some people look 40, when they are 14 and others look like teenagers, when they are adults. It is a moot point as to whether it’s a gift or a curse, but what we definitely know is that trying to guess these people’s ages based on appearance alone is an impossible task and the people in this compilation will prove it.

We at Bright Side have found 18 people that look incredibly unlike their actual age.

1. “Me, 14, looking like a 40-year-old Russian housewife.”

2. “Just turned 38. No one ever believes me.”

3. 13 to 30 in one cut

4. “Eyes of a 15-year-old girl, chin of a 30-year-old man...”

5. “Looking like a 50-year-old mama getting ready to go to church on a Sunday. I’m 13/14 in this pic.”

6. 7 or 37?

7. “Last year somebody told me I look like I’m 20 AND 50. She was trying to insult me, but I loved it.”

8. “This popped up on my newsfeed and I had to read her banner twice.”

9. “This 31-year-old lady looks like a 16-year-old activist.”

14. “This dude from my friend’s new school is 15 years old.”

15. “12-year-old me in my family photo. I look like the 35-year-old secretary who makes the best Christmas cookies at work.”

16. “Apparently I belong here. I’m 26.”

17. “My niece, I was taking a picture of her and caught her on the down step running down a hill.”
