Different hair color, for one. The recorded woman also has a different voice, and upon seeing the tape Christa says "What kind of place is this!" If it WERE Christa on the tape, I'd think that she would have an idea of exactly how bad that place was if she had actually been there, and she and Omid would NOT be going all the way to Savannah with Lee and Co if she had somehow escaped there.

Maybe because the woman on the tape appears Caucasian.

  1. Like I mentioned before, lighting could explain the difference. The hair is brown and straight in both cases. I don't see the big difference.
  2. The "what kind of place is this!" is probably just clever editing so it isn't too spoilery. Remember the ep 3 trailer? You hear a gunshot ,then see Clem holding a gun, shaking. People speculated she killed a walker or human and it turns out she didn't even fire the gun.
  3. Last, who is to say they have been there before? They obviously meet new people. Who is talking when they mention the "stories" about how bad the place was? I gave an theory as to why this could all happen without Christa ever haven visited Savannah. Even if she did, it's not like they planned to go to Savannah. She was forced by the horde.

I can't say you're wrong. I see you're view. We have to wait and see but personally, I'm not yet convinced that there's no way this could be not Christa.

Christa appeared Caucasian or maybe Asian (south Asia, Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi etc.) to me until i checked the wiki, but she does look more Caucasian than Christa

She doesn't to me. Plus, lighting can make a huge difference.

Take a real life example:

I don't trust that wiki. They make stuff up. I don't even think Carley was Caucasian. She could easily be Latina, but I digress.

I also think that Christa not know this woman's video, it would be much coincidence.
but who knows?

I obviously have my doubts, which is why I never brought it up, but like you said, who knows?

I don't think in any picture Christa looks white. Do you have one where she does? Is there a scene in video you can point to?

i may possibly have my brightness a bit higher than recommended on my pc, so just imagine that picture slightly brighter, but as i said a tan can make white people very brown

I agree a tan can make white people look very brown



Maybe just a spray tan or heavy make up



but I don't think so in this case

Why, I agree lighting can make a difference! Back to my original point: the woman in the video is Christa...

Well the woman in the video appears white, while Christa is black. Could just be the lighting but odds are they're different people.
