I knew I saw him post on there before and bumped into his posts today by mistake, I don't know if anyone on here ever wanted to contact him for anything but this might be a way to do it. Maybe we could ask him nicely if he'd do some kind of q&a for us?
I'm sorry, but the BGG pic looks like an '90s picture of the same guy that the YT pic shows. in my humble opinion, either both or none of them are Stephen Baker, realizer of the greatest boardgame ever to roam a table.

Are we seeing the same video here? I'm seeing a video of a person in his 30's named FINNgamer. Who talks with an accent. It's not Stephen Baker. And sure the BGG pic is old, but it's him, right?

I didn't watch any video. I just saw the picture in the link alyn gave (right above the video thumnail), which seems to me the same man 20 years later than in the BGG pic and the possible contact option alyn talks about..

I think you missed that it's not the guy in the video but the comment below it.

Sorry guys I tried to post 2 links, one to his youtube account and another link to a video he's commented on (at the top), click the video and goto the youtube site itself then look at the comments, hes talking to the person who submitted the video.
I'm not sure I agree mate, if you look at the images of him, https://boardgamegeek.com/image/1004031/stephen-baker This could EASILY be the same person, you cant really say a black and white picture of someone taken just as they reached adulthood cant be the same as a person probably 30-40 years later.
Going off the site you provided, I'd say the 2 blokes look pretty similar.

I agree. The ears, the cheeks, the hairline, the eyebrows, and ... most importantly... the smile of a person who knows they invented HeroQuest.
