Someone sent me this video today, the English accents (e.g. ones from the UK) were perfect, as is the Nigerian accent! I wouldn't listen to it around your children though, as it is spoken by someone from London there is a lot of casual swearing. The American ones and the Aus accent are pretty rubbish though.

I would also like to point out that I don't have any of those British accents, I'm a mix between North Wales and Lincolnshire, and he didn't do any of those two.

I have what might be considered a bit of a Canadian-ish accent because I live so far North in the USA. My husband, on the other hand, has that very southern American accent.

Wow that was really random Jeremy lol. I can't believe I just watched that whole thing. He was pretty good, the only one I thought was kind of off was the NY accent. The original American accent sounded pretty good though that's what all of us Pennsylvanians pretty much sound like lol. ALTHOUGH I have to leave Pittsburgh out of that general statement, because they have an accent of their own for some reason. o__O Southern accent was funny haha.

Anyway, again, that was random. :p

LOL, that's pretty cool. He's pretty good, I think.

I have to say though, we have quite a variety of accents here, but none of them sounds anything like the one he does. :rolleyes:

I thought the American ones were pretty good. Like Xero said the first one was pretty good. The NY one was pretty thick NY/NJ italian ( a real sterotypical movie NY'er accent) the southern one was good, maybe a little over the top (and a little too understnable to be true redneck)

that was fun

I also don't have any of those accents, although technically I speak with what is generally termed 'home counties' or RP accent (s'well proper innit!). I did grin quite a bit at his 'upper-class, annoying stereotype' one because it wasn't a million miles away from my MIL!!

I wasn't sure whether to be amused by the amount of swearing, or dismayed at the stereotyping! However, I must admit, I got bored halfway through and switched off (hey, I've just finished work, it's been a long day!)! :tongue:

Finally remembered to watch it! Hard to do when you get up at 2am, can't wake anyone up, and don't really want you kid listening to it. Lot's O Swearing! I was really hoping for a West Indian accent in there! I might have to do my own video. The accent here is strange....took me a looooong time to understand what the heck people were saying. Funny video though. He's got a knack for it.
