A Caucasian man’s prank on a confused telemarketer by putting on a thick Vietnamese accent is going viral, and many commenters cannot help but commend for his accuracy.
The video, posted by Ramos Jakob, features a brown-haired White man in an office messing around with a telemarketer about a supposed car accident. He makes use of an over-the-top Vietnamese accent, wherein “f’s” and “p’s” are interchanged.

The person holding the camera can be heard giggling at the man’s impression, including a point in the middle of the video wherein they acknowledge each other and laugh together.

The man’s speech is a bit difficult to make out (as intended) but standout phrases include the man describing “car farking.”![](https://nextshark.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/vietaccentscreenshot1.png?width=1536&auto_optimize=medium&quality=85)

Many netizens on Facebook rather enjoyed the speech, including Asians who are decidedly unoffended by the well-worked affectation: “Now this man gets a pass for cultural appropriation,” one said.

Given the different reaction from this video in comparison to a video of a man mocking Chinese salon women, we turn the conversation over to you: Is this man in the wrong? Is the accent so good that he gets a pass?
