After have seen these two interviews, I'm almost sure Paul Walker is a xxTP, and more likely to be INTP. He's also seen as an INTP on socionics.com. What do you think about?

Hmm...

Paul Walker - ESTP
Jimmy Kimmel - ENTP

Walker seems pretty grounded in his storytelling for an INTP. He also lacks the verbal range/solemn demeanor most INTPs seem to maintain.

Yeah, Paul Walker's some kinda ES. I'd think about it more, but it's Paul Walker.

Yes, he probably could be ESTP, I've an ESTP friend who have a very similar attitude. Grounding in story-telling and appreciation for fashinonable clothes make think for an ESTP. Actually, I don't really understand why socionics.com class him like INTP. He've a good Ti of course, and he seems to be a little "dreamer", but is it enough to be INTP, I'm not sure at all..

Yeah, they've got some really wrong type jobs on that site. (And anyway, INTp in socionics is Ni-Te-Si-Fe.)

Well, in your defense, interviews rarely convey honest character and are often more about charismatic posture, as a means to promote upcoming movies/television shows, etc.

INTP isn't necessarily out of the ballpark.

Yeah, interviews like these almost always ask concrete questions, so people are far more likely to answer in concrete ways.

However, Paul Walker certainly exhibits ESTP mannerisms.

And if his movie roles are any indication, ISTP is likely.

Yes, but I have not seen similars comportments in interviews of other INTP actor like Dustin Hoffman or Hayden Christensten.

I've remarked this too. These mannerisms are frequent with many ESTP, I've myself some of these mannerism too sometimes. Aniway, it's funny because in interviews of Angelina Jolie, I would swear that she was one of my ESTP friend (a girl) who've entered in her body so the mannerisms and intonations between both are similars.
