      No Australians, just like it’s so funny like that where like we make everything a question, we like go very high at the end of each sentence and it’s weird because Americans kind of make it a statement because Australians, I like worried that we’re gonna get it wrong like the answer is two???

      Apart from the 'R's' ('Arr' for the Yanks vs 'Ahh' for the Aussies), in yelling scenes for Poms (Brits.. UK) & Aussies, you can sometimes detect their native accent or at least one that they're not representing (eg. Gary Oldman playing Jim Gordon in Dark Night, he was yelling on a roof top & you can kinda hear nearly a quasi Aussie accent at the end).
      I'd only imagine sticking to an accent that's not your own could be incredibly difficult when yelling. But then, some people do it with ease

    I love his antive Australian accent and I didn't have a clue that was an Aussie till I heard his interviews. Being Swedish, our teachers want us to learn the British accent, however when working and living in London with a lot of Australians, I found that the Australian accent is very easy to learn as well we both go up at the end of a sentence where the BE and AE accents is flat. The AE accent, on the other hand, is a tuff cookie to crack indeed

    I love your analysis. There are lots of similarities with Spanish from the Americas. In regards of the part of the mouth or throat used. My first language is Spanish and living in USA. When I first moved here, I also exercised my mouth by talking in the morning through my clinched teeth making me use all the perioral muscles to better enunciate. Is fun to see someone thoughtful smart explaining something I figured out on my own with no a ting training or public speaking experience 20 years ago when I moved here and people were struck by my accent. I work in a fast paced high service kind of life or death where communication is important. Thank you
