I was really hoping to see someone put on the mask but the one featured in the video was made with one person’s facial topography in mind and so I assume they can’t just throw it on anyone.

Yeah, this feels like a very modern day exposé- lots of talking about a thing, some buried lede action, and eventually no payoff. Was this video created by a procedural SEO algorithm with a novel neural net approach? There's basically none of the promised content here.

I’m leaning towards CIA PR campaign.

Was very disappointed too, I fully expected her to pull off a mask at the end and it would be Tom Cruise underneath :(

Especially since she called it 5 sec mask. It feels like exaggeration but who knows for sure.

I don't think I ever seen it is a movie, but you could theoretically put it on turning a corner do 180 and evade someone.

It’s be funny if everyone totally knew it was a mask, but it was the equivalent of Halloween in Russia so nobody said anything
