“The Horse Head Mask, made from soft vinyl and latex, has become a symbol for anonymity (like the Guy Fawkes mask) and humor over the internet, most commonly in Japan.”
But the man in the horse mask didn’t stay anonymous for long. According to the DCist, the man underneath the mask is Jimmy Kruyne.
Kruyne told the DCist that he wanted to make people smile a little before the storm hit.
