Is Vin Diesel a black man or a white man? I know that's a silly question, but I was watching Pitch Black a couple of days ago and I couldn't decide whether he is black or white. Very attractive physique too.

Pale skin, very diplomatic answer. And correct too, because have you ever seen a truly black or truly white person? Except albinos of course.

Excerpts from Wikipedia :
"
Vin Diesel was born as Mark Sinclair Vincent III, after his great uncle who died in a POW camp in WWII, in New York City on July 18, 1967 to Delora Sinclair. Delora later married Irving H. Vincent, who adopted Diesel and his twin brother Paul. Diesel made his stage debut at the age of seven in Theatre for the New City, which was produced in Greenwich Village and directed by Thomas Hinkerman. He continued to be involved with the theatre throughout his adolescence, and he went on to attend the city's Hunter College, where his studies in creative writing led him to begin writing screenplays. Diesel became active in filmmaking in the early 1990s, first earning notice for the short Multi-Facial, which was selected for screening at the 1995 Cannes Festival. He followed up Multi-Facial with his first feature-length film, 1997's Strays, an urban drama in which he cast himself as a gang boss whose love for a woman inspires him to try to change his ways. Written, directed, and produced by Diesel, the film was selected for competition at the 1997 Sundance Festival, which led to a deal with MTV to turn it into a series.

I'm not sure, I thought that his was a mix of white and Spanish or black. But I've seen and read interviews about his and he doesn't really discuss his early years, and he was raised by his mum and his step father and he doesn't know who his biological father is, so who knows. All I know is that the man is FINE!!

I think he's more white than black, because he hasn't got the big lips that 99% of black people have!

He's quite a fair to tan skinned person I should say based from his pictures and movies I've seen.
