i was gunna post this video today after i rewatched ideas man after the mde youtube channel was brought back. the similarities are uncanny; same sort of face, same sort of hair/hairline, and identical voices.

It was made in mid-2013, before Jace's "hater hitlist," when he was still a stoner dudebro instead of a schizo talkshow host that he is now.
 
The more i look at this, the more compelled i was to make a account, there was just too many similarities in this guy and Jace, and i really think it might be worth more attention. I'm a long time MDE fan and i just started following Jace, and lolcows in general in the last few (eventfull) months. Although i really hope its not an act, certain things have recently lead me to believe its an act, and this almost makes too much sense.

Not only was the voice a practical dead ringer, but the hairline, facial hair, and now earlobe all seem identical as well, and i was having a very difficult time finding distinctive features that they DID NOT share. I know there is a video out there somewhere where jace removes his glasses briefly, at the end of a stream if i am not mistaken, if anyone would want to compare the eyes in that video as well, that could potentially help, in terms of eye color and shape. If any other MDE fans know of other videos with this actor/know information about who he is, please share, because i have no idea

Both Jace and Sam have demonstrated on multiple occasions that they are at least aware of each other, Jace called Sam Hyde a bully on one occasion for instance. However, assuming jace was an act, and his material was meant to be interpreted as comedy, it truly is not much defferant than much of MDE and Sam Hydes material already, and it clearly appeals to similar audiences. Furthermore both Sam and Jace live close to each other, they both live in massachusetts and iirc they are both in the south eastern area of Mass, near rhode island, hence why alot of MDE are from rhode island.

Jace also just seemed way too witty and out of character at times during his interview with reuben, and some of his views he shared sounded like it was right out of sam hydes mouth when he was more serious, he even called the knife with writing on it a obvious joke, something i thought jace took very seriously was now clearly a joke to him

I think this deserves more looking into, maybe i am flat out wrong, but i am really struggling to find anything to disproove this idea, and maybe some of the more expert investigators here can shine more light on this. It just makes too much sense to me, i can totally see Sam having a internet Andy Kaufman style friend that he discreetly features in a video or two. one of them could have reached out to the other, or even meet in real life, realized they both were internet funnymen, and promise to keep it secret.

Jace does not live near Rhode Island, hes over in the mid-western area of MA. Very close to Connecticut but RI is about an hour away. The area they/their friends live in are totally different.

i think if anything Jace is a spin off of MDE trolling /k/ through the fuckyeahdeagles tumblr (rather then a separate person who Hyde happened to meet). MDE has a history of trolling communities on 4chan they set up a fake crowd funded "pony dating sim" that they trolled /mlp/ with, was pretty funny.

Probably like most people that follow deaglenation I flop back and forth as to whether any of it is real. Most times I think it's fake. Everything about Jace is just so absurd and the situations that he gets himself in are almost too perfect.

but stuff like the car crash video and other videos of Tyce and Jace hanging out before any of this stuff started makes me think otherwise.

They look similar, but who are the talented actors who play Eli, Gail, and Tyce so flawlessly? Also, where did this MDE guy study psychology? Because he acts exactly like a schizophrenic. The problem is that the only real evidence for Jace being fake is that it's too good to be true, which it's not. They're just a bunch of idiots with various mental illnessess.

Edit: I think many of the people who think Jace is fake are paying too much attention to his better moments. Go back and watch the end of his Sims 3 Jack Stryker playthrough. If that's not genuine anguish and confusion, then I really can't tell what is.

They do look similar but his voice is deeper and the lazy eye was confirmed in the Christmas stream.

Jace was following MDE on his original Twitter at one point though. I don't think Deagle Nation is is an MDE thing but the Jace-Sam Hyde connection is intriguing.

it's always a good idea to practice skepticism. if anything this just adds to the mystique of deagle nation.

Strange how that post mentions Andy Kaufman, MW2, fucking SOAP, and even refers to him as a parkour consultant. . I still don't know what to think. Someone posted on cow this video saying it is rankowskis mother and her name is even gayle .
Not sure if that information is accurate but that is certainly suspicious. IMO she sounds and looks like jaces mom

I just don't know guys. I just don't know anymore

*EDIT At the end of that video it says it was edited by rankowski and gayle is even subscribed to MDE, so i trust she is rankowskis mother.

*EDIT2 articles about jan being an autist as a kid, also confirming this is his mother

Do you guys think we should make a separate thread for this?

It's not Jace. You guys are really searching for the proper camera angle to get something that looks like him. I also don't think "Gayle" looks that much like Gail and Gayle has more of an accent than Gail does.

Our Gail is just an insane old woman. Also, if you were going to hire an actress named Gayle to play the role of an insane religious person why make it easy and name the character Gail?

All three members of MDE are comedians performing standup in addition to the videos they upload and they're going to be on Adult Swim too. I don't think they would have poured this much time and dedication to create performance art as flawless as Deagle Nation for an audience of 300 people max these last few years. Given that Sam Hyde is/was pretty active on Tumblr and close to this kind of stuff on the internet in general I'd suspect he was just aware of Jace before most people and trolled him.

I want to make clear that none of the screens i provided were deliberately chosen for possessing more likeness, they were literally the first things i found on google/screen capped, I'm not trying to misrepresent info to further my theory, But i honestly believe that these similarities are rather odd. I also don't believe that MDE have a serious influence on Deagle Nation, but assuming the hypothesis of Jan being Jace is true, it would appear that they have some sort of relationship, both being internet comics, and that MDE has featured him intermittently, as MDE often does for people they find intresting.

MDE has a shitload of connections literally everywhere, i can totally see this relationship existing assuming Jan is Jace. Also gayle is not theorized to be an actor, but Jans actual mother. For all we know she is not even in on the joke, and Jan has taken it so far that not even his own mother realizes he is acting.

Also here:

it is mentioned the guys name is "Jan Rankowski".

Jan Rankowski is credited in writing:

Odd, i cant find that post on the MDE facebook. When did you take that screenshot? If they removed that in the past day or two that is practically a confirmation that we are on to something

It would make sense, MDE doesnt want to fuck over a friend of theirs by revealing this, i doubt they will confirm any of this for that reason, and why im not going to bug them over it

Except Jan is obviously not Jace. Really all you have going is the balding. I feel like an autist for discussing the head shapes of a schizo on the internet but yes they have differently shaped heads and fat distribution and you're forgetting that Jace does indeed have a pretty lazy eye.

Unless you're telling me that a sometimes-extra on a couple MDE videos has hired a man who looks somewhat similar to him and then had his own mom pretend to be this other guy's crazy mom for years on the internet.

Maybe you are actually Jace Connors for finding all these "connections" proving that the conspiracy israel.
