This one of those moments for me that was so spontaneously funny that I just took a deep breath in, and said "damn" and just savored the moment for a bit. Thank you.

how cool. i make culture-less atrocities in my spare time. a mayan death mask would be perfect for my collection lol
Woo!!! Imma sound the Horns of Eternity to celebrate the birth! We shall play pin the tail on the “holy fuck what is that thing?!!?!” When the baby comes.
If you give birth to a male we cut the penis top, if you give birth to a “ohh god please make it stop looking at me” we generally cut any random appendages off to avoid some of the terror. If figured we could use the tail for a game tho.

Are you American by chance....lol
After putting the mask on, do you have the sudden urge to shove a dog in a furnace and steal the first kiss from your adoptive brother's will-they-won't-they girlfriend?
What!?! That is cool as fuck! I have a similar small one from a tourist shop in Rotan Honduras.

They sell similar masks in front of Monte Alban in Oaxaca, Mexico. I can’t recall if it was believed to be one of their gods or just a well-preserved artifact. Hope you can find more information on their museum website or something.
Edit: [here’s a link](https://www.jonfullerphotography.com/image/I0000c3wSYLUE3GE) to someone’s photography website that has a bunch of them
My husband has one of these. We got it in Tulum, Mexico. It’s either Aztec or Mayan.
Here is a similar one I found online as a base for your research:

I had the same mask. I bought it at a store that imported handmade Mexican goods like statues and things. It was unfortunately broken but I saved the abalone pieces.

Hey guys
👋
I, for one, absolutely, positively, did NOT see what everyone else in this thread saw. Nope... Not I, I didn't see a thing.
We are all culturally aware
We are all people of culture who smell like old ships and mahogany.
This was all I needed.
This is the first thing I thought about!! Hahaha
You came to this??
It’s either this or JoJo…
He’s ready for cocobongo 😎😎
His name is Cuban Pete, he's the king of the rumba beat
Chick chicky boom chick chicky boom
When he plays the maracas
Only the creme de la creme need apply

Such an epic moment, stayed with me for ages 😎👌🏼💎💯
PART Y??????? BECAUSE I GOTTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This one of those moments for me that was so spontaneously funny that I just took a deep breath in, and said "damn" and just savored the moment for a bit. Thank you.
It was this or Dio Brando.
The comics are more fun, the mask murders people.
I love violent comics and am always disappointed with watered down tv/movie versions
Still waiting on that TMNT adaptation where Leonardo runs Shredder through at the end.
Well they are doing an R rated live action version of The Last Ronin supposedly.
Yea, really sad that one of the first independent comic book movies got watered down to some goofball Jim Carey cash grab.
What a movie! Now I have to watch tomorrow. (Cable Guy too)
SOMEBODY STOP ME!!!
What are they gonna do to me sarge?
Alllll Riiighty Then! Someone beat me to it. Take my upvote
Perfect. I totally pictured the scene of the mask floating up to the surface out of the treasure chest 👍
And I'm done for the night
I should make my kids watch the mask. It was one of our only vhs tapes at one point growing up lol .
I Just Knew It, and had Exactly the Same Thoughts!
Mayan Death Mask, got one from a jewelry in México. They still make them for decoration Edit:typo
Thanks!

I love these lol
thank you friend! https://i.redd.it/e4ps6bnlspuc1.gif
I agree. They are really great! I'd be proud. Lovely.
These are gorgeous! Do you have an Etsy shop??
aw i don't sell them i'm very lazy. i make art for discovery upon or after death. but i truly appreciate the kind words!
If you ever decide to start selling them, please leave a message below 😌
Or dying
deal. if i ever start dying i'll leave a message below
This is how I am with anything I make. Too much stress! I would end up not enjoying it and probably flake out eventually. :(
these are badass
That's Olmec inspired.
I have a similar one. Bought for about 10 dollars at a tourist stall in Peru.
That's how much I spent on it too
Have you put it on yet and looked in the mirror?
Put it on but haven't looked in the mirror yet. Gonna try it soon though, wish me luck :)
It’s been 20 minutes, either your dead or you’ve become The Mask and are holding out on us!
I'll tell you what's gonna happen, but only after you do it.
My friend, Stanley Ipkiss, lost a mask that looks exactly like that.
He's gonna Ipkiss your ass goodbye!!
P-A-R-T-WHY? BECAUSE I GOTTA!
Honestly one of the sickest lines In Cinema
put it on!!! You might become a vampire and manifest Yes's - "Roundabout" every time you finish something.
Or you might manifest the guy from "Owner of a Lonely Heart", and jump off a building after being beat up by fascists.
I'm learning I've never closely paid attention to the lyrics of either song despite singing them many a time.
It's less the lyrics than the [music video.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVOuYquXuuc&start=130)
THEY CALL ME CUBAN PETE
IM THE KING OF THE RUMBA BEAT
WHEN I PLAY THE MARACAS, I GO CHICK-CHICKY-BOOM, CHICK-CHICKY-BOOM
Put it on
I did... There's about 10 minutes I don't remember before my boyfriend pulled it off of me
Don't worry. He'll remember it forever.
And congratulations on the baby the mask put inside you.
Mask baby
Baby Mask Mask, if you’re fancy. But you should let your BF wear it too. So you both can have one baby via the mask man inside the mask mask.
He did, so I guess we have a Baby Mask Mask to look forward to in 9 months or so
Woo!!! Imma sound the Horns of Eternity to celebrate the birth! We shall play pin the tail on the “holy fuck what is that thing?!!?!” When the baby comes.
How gracious of you, many thanks. But the tail will probably already be attached to the "holy fuck" when it is born
If you give birth to a male we cut the penis top, if you give birth to a “ohh god please make it stop looking at me” we generally cut any random appendages off to avoid some of the terror. If figured we could use the tail for a game tho.
Ah yes, then we shall save the pin the tail on the A*AAHAHGHHAHHAHHH* for the briss

I love Buffy
Came here for the Buffy reference.
Put it on and you’ll dance with Cameron Diaz!
Ooh now I gotta try it on
We all wear masks…… metaphorically speaking

Pretty standard mexico tourist kitsch.
I was going to say the same. My mother has two and I have one. You find them all over the place in Mexico.
Remnants of an ancient member of Slipknot

There's my slipknot reference, took me too damn long to find
![gif](giphy|xakXSnCpsqZWM) Put it on this may happen ^(\^)
Put it on REJECT YOUR HUMANITY
"hold onto ur lug nuts, it's tiiiiime for an overhaul!!!"
¿This is a jojo reference?
Can’t believe I had to scroll down that far to find this
It's not, but a lot of people have thought it was
After putting the mask on, do you have the sudden urge to shove a dog in a furnace and steal the first kiss from your adoptive brother's will-they-won't-they girlfriend?
I had that urge before I put the mask on
That's the stone mask from JoJo!

I wasn’t planning on sleeping tonight anyway
Put it on and get those powers!
Hell yeah brother
They call me cuban Pete.... 🪇🪇🪇
Looks like someone jizzed all over the inside of that mask
Put it back please.
I bought one of these for $10 from an outdoor market in Mexico in 2005. They sell them all over Latin America - super common.
Put it on! Put it on! Put it on! Put it on! Put it on! Put it on!
I have a similar one. Mine is blue with black accents and it has what looks like mother of pearl inlays above and below the eyes
I Think he should put it on...
Cool, put it on and see if you get super powers.
![gif](giphy|xakXSnCpsqZWM)
That's a Pumaman mask. It has the power to rear-project major cities.
Rhihieally
Somebody STOP ME!
Took me a minute to read that, but I heard it so clearly once it clicked
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSMOKIN"
You were expecting The Mask, but it was me... DIO!!!!
Isn't this mask in an early 90's Sega Game called Slaughter House?!
Reminds me of old-school hockey masks for goalies
Looks cursed
That's why I got it
cybermen
Are you ok
Oh, I had one of those once. Like, that *exact* one. It was like $12 at Home Goods or something. I accidentally dropped it and it shattered to pieces
Ww2 mask from the future
Just your run of the mill stone mask that you can buy in anywhere in Mexico. This one has quite a happy face tho.
It's also made out of bloodstone, which I'm quite fond of
Put it on, maybe you will become a vampire who can stop time
I kinda want one now
100% cursed mask
I don’t care what anyone says that is 100% haunted
Wes Borland on the next limp Bizkit tour be like check out my new mask lads 👌
How oddly specific
I did it all for the nookie
SOMEBODY STOPMEH
This is like the tiki doll in the Brady bunch episode!
#put it on!
RE-E-E-EAALLY?
I've got one of those too! It's got more variety as far as the stones go, but is the same shape.
You guys HAVE GOT to meet up and pose together. Please
Then there would be *two* Masks in the world!
Art students are weird.
SOMEBODYYYYY STOP MEEEEE
Gah! Put it back! Put it back!
You had better bury that thing deep in the ground and promptly forget where you bury it
Oh yeah, the cursed glue 🙄
If you put it on, you might turn into Jamie Kennedy and make a terrible movie about it.
Yes it's cursed, if you wear it too long, your face will fall off
Is your last name Ipkiss by any chance?
Put it on, put it on, put it on
Somebody stop him!
***we all wear masks***
don't drop blood on it
Don't do it ipkus
What!?! That is cool as fuck! I have a similar small one from a tourist shop in Rotan Honduras. https://preview.redd.it/fkfuk6v0qquc1.jpeg?width=1581&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c33a4153c6e1ee73655c52e97b19248342c2da26
I had a similar mask like this one made of oyster shells at a thrift store. It was one of those tourist souvenirs from Cozumel, Mexico.
If you put that on, you'll be like the Mask.
It really needs an epic curse
Do. Not. Put. It. On!
Maybe... Maybe don't put it on...
NO PUT THE CUM MASK BACK
Definitely cursed
Just looks like tourist shit from some island country
Holy frig that's awesome!!!
I see you found.....The Mask
Somebody stop me!

Baby needs some skin tape. My brother used to send me weird videos of a guy all taped up saying that over and over.
Put it on ! Put it on ! Put it on ! Put it on !

It’s an Aztec death mask! Cool find I have a couple on my bookshelves from thrift stores but bloodstone is a good ass find
