Jake, a British college student who posts under “Truseneye92” on YouTube, (so, I’m guessing he’s 18) has posted a video where he BRILLIANTLY does 24 accents in 8 minutes including several dialects from England, Scotland, Ireland, the US and worldwide. Listen to the whole thing; he’s very sweet and modest and apologetic for the swearing or if he offended anyone at the end of it. Look at it NOW; it’s going to be the Viral Video for the next week and I’m already guessing TV show producers are going to be lining up to book this kid for talk shows on both sides of the Atlantic…watch Oprah and Ellen get into a slapfest over this kid. And, someone needs to send him to RADA immediately for more training…
Here’s what he says about his video:
Me attempting to do 24 different accents from my own country and from other countries around the world. Hopefully I got most of them right but I may have made mistakes and I can do some better than others. However, I made this video for my friends because I promised them I would do an accent video. I mean no offence to anyone and please don’t be upset if I have not included your specific accent or got it wrong
I hope he uses his 15 minutes of fame wisely and doesn’t let it go to his head….Oh, and I originally saw this on Huffington Post.
