This is like the ultimate listening lesson for a non native english speaker

Poor Ron nods and smiles but he clearly doesn't understand a word. 😄

As a brazilian, with no english lessons taken at any point in my life, i'm very proud of myself for understanding every word! Achievement unlocked!

I just love him. Even if you take away his beautiful Scottish accent, he is just so funny and such an engaging story teller. I could just listen to him for days.

[juliagatto]

I find the Scottish accent quite beautiful

[marrydruli]

Can we stop arguing and competing about who understood what and just enjoy the story?
I had such a good laugh.

Kevin Bridges is by far one of the best comedians that UK has to offer. The guy is gifted. What he is saying may not be as funny but is all about his witty delivery.

[HewanYitagesu]

i understood 90% but i had to REALLY focus on his mouth. i find him really charming.

I love the Scottish accent myself. Kevin is awesome. Funny but also humble and down to earth. Nice thing to do for his parents too. Excellent. Well done.

I'm australian and I can understand every bloody things hes saying

[Mimi-ssxx]

Omg I love his accent! I can listen to him all day.

[LQOTW]

What a sweet thing to do for his parents! I loved listening to Kevin's voice.

I've spoken English all my life but, when I had to give aviation English lessons to ATCs I discovered I couldn't get the Scottish accent. Kevin Bridges saved my career, I watched his videos till I could understand 80-90%! He's brilliant!

[TheChangeMyLife]

English isn't my first language but I understood pretty much everything. I'm proud of myself :)

[juliagatto]

My grandmother immigrated here from Scotland along with her best friend and youngest brother. I grew up around thick accents like this so I understand it easily. But the look on my friend's faces when they hear my grandma speak is hysterical. They have no clue what she's saying

[samwiseyoufool]

I love how Ron Howard is looking at Kevin, he just seems so amazed, hahah

[HolandaChiquita]

I don't know if Kevin was speaking slower or with less of an accent on purpose, but I don't get how people can't understand him...
I'm not a native English speaker, I've never been to Scotland or met a Scottish person in my life, but I have no problem at all with understanding every single word...

[MintyCanRead]

I understood all of it, but it's a good thing I'm watching this from a computer. If he was talking to me face to face, I think he'd be a little unnerved by me staring intensely at his mouth.

[ripsnorter]

You can see Ron Howard was trying his hardest to listen and understand 😂

[Noname-xixi]

This story was hilarious, the guy had me in tears!!!
