Reaction To First Visit To Australia - Trevor Noah (Melbourne Comedy Festival)

[@napez4126]

As a South African, Trevor has a natural gift with accents. He does our various domestic accents and dialects excellently too! 😊

[@InstigatorDJ]

Pity he is such a fckn sellout.

[@lilianhaggland2031]

​@@cleochots3073he has an South African accent.

[@Chilinda_GA]

​@@lilianhaggland2031South Africa has several accents, based on the various tribal groups and their languages, that's what napez is trying to say.

[@rebeccantsebeng2659]

@@lilianhaggland2031 what are you trying to argue?

[@personofearth5076]

His Australian accent was okay but to an Aussie, we could still hear the South African accent.

[@picadas2010]

That loud laughter from that guy... He related from personal experience 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@OfentseMwaseFilms]

The man can make you die of laughter in just 5 minutes. His first laugh is in 30 seconds. A legend

[@lindylufromoz5111]

I agree.

[@mosesgaegopolwe7016]

Yoooo 🙏🏽 found a legend's comment. Can't wait for the world finally recognize you for your art. Fan from 🇧🇼

[@petergreen5337]

Agreed

[@Mantras-and-Mystics]

First time I've heard a non-Aussie do justice to the Aussie accent! Respect 👍

[@belladoran222]

Trev really nailed us 👏 👌 proper accent, we loved him over here, he can stay.

[@ianchenofficial]

My wife who is Russian absolutely loves his skit with his Russian accent sounding like a DJ backwards! 🤣😂

[@waniajayi2897]

Yeahh... His Russian is my favorite of all! I enjoy watching him mimic Putin.

[@goldenstar9379]

I love that one watched it many times 😂😂😂😂😂

[@0ixto]

😂😂😂

[@janemcdonald5372]

Trevor Noah has a good friend who is Australian and he picked up the accent by listening to him. He does lots of different accents very well.

[@ogone1465]

Trevor lied to you & you believed him😅

[@nickfoster4361]

Althaf Noah. Trevor Althaf

[@Munki]

He's a master at accents. A very clever comic. Definitely one of my favourites. Also, as an Aussie, that accent was bang on.

[@personofearth5076]

As an Aussie also I didn't think it was bang on at all. Yes, I could also hear the South African accent in there with it.

[@kevo6190]

That is a solid Aussie accent!🤣🤘🇭🇲.. Respect

[@burgobusdriver1]

good but sounds leb aussie at times

[@robparsons1527]

Excellent job on the Aussie accent. The food thing at customs is true there are a whole host of diseases that we don't have here, so keeping them out is critical to our bio-security, they could nearly destroy our food industry, so you with the apple...

[@Mama_Bongwe]

I see what you did there 😂😂

[@chookinathunderstorm3446]

I remember when I was a kid in Western Australia and you could eat clean fruit straight off of your backyard trees with no fruit fly maggots and no pesticide needing to be washed off.. Now you have to make a choice between the dangers of pesticide or the revulsion at maggots. Maggots are not so bad if they're small enough though.. Extra protein!

[@mirasolovklose3888]

The damn British guards did their job pretty well back in the day, kept all the germs out and the prisoners in!

[@CptNem]

We've watched enough movies to know that all the worst villains are just sitting there, munching on apples. We've found a good way to stamp out that problem.

[@jehannehardwick6311]

The fruit thing coming into New Zealand is the same , for the same reason. Don't land at Auckland airport with a banana in your handbag. $200 fine...

[@cypherglitch]

his aussie accent was spot on. always hard to come across a non aussie coping the accent flawlessly.

[@aoajibadeouscaaoa653]

😂😅 that WAS great.. Trevor ALWAYS delivers A★ performance.. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@bowriverblues8445]

The funny thing is when a lot of people try an Australian accent they often sound South African…so it doesn’t surprise me that a South African can pull off the Aussie accent.

[@Thursdayxoxxxoooxo]

Very true like a Afrikaner South African. Very similar I must say. But Trevor Noah executes it in such a elegant manner.

[@tamalam]

Yeah I've thought that before. Like, is that an Aussie character? Oh no, he's supposed to be a Saffa

[@mrb2643]

Yeah we can do the Auzzie accent

[@kanamoodaley6761]

True... Most South Africans can do a good aussie accent

[@cleochots3073]

​@@mrb2643lmao no you can't 😂

[@NatashaKock-zk4hm]

Proudly south African...my brother from another mother

[@RenegadeRanga]

Finally a decent Aussie accent. Comedy at its best, pulls no punches and isn't worried about offending anyone.

[@Kirsten567]

1:30 😂that guy's laugh

[@johnforde7735]

Trevor is a master class in accents.

[@michaeltownsend429]

Jeeeeeeebus! That ‘customs officer’ rant was absolutely SPOT ON! I had a moment a few seconds after he segued out of that voice where I stopped and reminded myself that it wasn’t a recording that he took and rolled out for his bit on stage - it was actually Trevor bloody Noah pulling it off! Unbelievable.

[@elizabethjaneblake1325]

As a South African we love Trevor he always makes people laugh proudly South African

[@christinestephens37]

Everything spot on good 😂😂😂😂😂Thank you for sharing this clip. I miss seeing Trevor on the daily show,but stand up is his first love.

[@gabriellerose3839]

He’s good. He sends up his South Africa accent well too.

[@geoffmaloney2717]

Easier for a Saffie or a Kiwi to do an Aussie accent. But still a good job. Dev Patel in a movie called Lion absolutely nailed it.

[@blazeisabella]

When an Aussie asks or get asked how's your day the answer is always yeah good or no worries it's a polite greeting that isn't supposed to be answers with an honest answer you could have the worst shittiest day but we don't really care answer yeah no worries 😂

[@Heartheartrecords]

the cats out of the bag, he's actually an Australian pretending to do a South African accent.. haha... its that good ;)

[@DeannaSt]

OMG - I had to play the host twice - Scottish accent is … almost like Welsh 🤯 I have no words! 😃

[@edwardbothman6622]

Im from trevor noahs home town and what makes the accents so good is when you go to uct aka university here you never ever speak the same way again😂

[@juciyjcurtis7938]

Trevor is good with accents 😂

[@KbalilahRadway]

Trevor knock it out the park every time 😂

[@oluok4470]

Trevor is quite talented and he works really hard. Way to go expanding your horizon bro!

[@jenniferharrison8915]

He is very quick and funny! 😁👍 Yes your assumptions are correct, they always bring bags of food and never fill out the food declaration! 🤯 Ignorance is no excuse, it's printed in every language! We have a precious eco system as we feed many countries! NO SEEDS, BUGS, LEAVES OR MEAT! They are fined, the food trashed and destroyed! 🤨

[@NkomaziAggregates]

Am south african..hrew uo watching Trevor..what i like is the fact that i can watch hs shows over and over again and still laugh like its the first tym

[@tbonesfishies1797]

Give him that he was good, he did a pretty good Aussie accent too.

Have you tried Irish

Damn good Aussie accent... Sounds just like Mark Taylor, Cricketer 'ret' / Commentator. This was heaps of fun to watch. You will have a great time when you travel here.

[@Regula_joe]

Good times when trevor was still SA and funny lol

[@traceyvincent2217]

The stuff about Customs is actual TRUTH

[@Daniels_ATS_W900]

I did like this performance.

[@suelynch]

He must have a knack for doing accents. It's true that the Aussie accent is very difficult. I have heard many people try to do an Aussie accent and most of them sound South African.

[@James-lw3gi]

He has a close mate who’s Australian, he apparently learned it from hanging out with him

[@benkei7530]

For South Africans it’s easy

[@smilesandyoka]

LOOOOVE Trevor - pure genious!

[@FionaEm]

His attempt at an Aussie accent was pretty good, but he lasped into an English accent in places. Our Customs ppl are obsessed with fruit because, as a island nation, we have the opportunity to keep out a lot of foreign pests & diseases.

[@datwistyman]

That was great😂

[@joanlosper8193]

Love your ability to make us laugh. This was truly hilarious 😂 😂😂

[@kritaan1]

Fruits are a massive thing here because we are so far from everyone... we grow most things here and if we get an outbreak of fruit flies from somewhere else it will destroy our fruit farming.. we don't even take fruit across borders here due to that

[@simonboyane1140]

Wow! That's an amazing practice. Wish we had similar things in South Africa, but with so much politics here we can't

[@brontewcat]

@@simonboyane1140You are part of a much larger landmass. Australia is still largely an island, and NZ even more so. The 😊issue isn’t fruit flies, but we don’t have many of the diseases such as rabies, Dutch Elm Disease, foot and mouth and until now we have avoided the disease that has been wiping out honey bees. We want to keep it that way.

[@colinmcardle5864]

Hi Matt. I love your reactions I'm always looking out for the next one. As far as Australian accents are concerned Scottish comedian Danny Bhouy is great not only has he got the accent he's nailed the vernacular. Danny Bhouy live at the Sydney Opera House is fantastic. Too long for a reaction but well worth a private viewing. There are many individual clips from longer performances which involve Australian accents like Fruit Police and Gecko Attack. and obviously Australian accents. I'd love to see your reaction to one or more of these. Cheers from Oz

[@kathyconway5327]

DB did a show on the back of a tour of the outback. I saw it on ABC a long while back and would love to see it again but can’t remember what it’s called. DYK? I wonder if he does the same job in countries elsewhere and how popular he is in Scotland.

[@colinmcardle5864]

@@kathyconway5327 The only one I'm familiar with is the Live at the Sydney Opera house from 2007 in which he does refer to touring Austraqlia

[@kathyconway5327]

@@tlihdsnm26947 I’d imagine he’d have been there more than a few times it ran so long but when I tried again to find this thing I saw a Montreal festival event he did where he was mimicking a gecko he had interacted with on his travels and it was very familiar and so I thought I may have conflated that performance with an Arj Barker ABC show about travels in the outback. These two are very similar in some respects and I am an idiot so it makes sense to me now that I would have mixed them up.

[@teejayangel6638]

Australians are the friendliest pple in the world! Very laid back, nothing shocks them😂😂😂 I guess that's why.

[@politicallyincorrectpanda]

The Australian and South African accents do some fairly similar even to us sometimes that’s why we do each other’s accents more easily?

[@leighcunningham756]

I enjoyed watching our boy in Australia. All that's needed now Matt is for you to learn to speak English!

[@venderstrat]

The Aussie accent was pretty good. Not perfect, but pretty good. It's hard to get rid of the SA accent. They are similar but so different.

[@patricebennett1100]

That was great and spot on. Beat Aussie accent of heard. It’s a hard one to do.

I never realised how much of an Aussie accent I had until watching reaction videos. I always thought it was the the rest of the world that had accent. I actually so say " how ya garn" bought to my attention by reaction videos amoungst other true blue Ozzie words. 😅

[@grahambeech4636]

Fruits here don't have many of the diseases that are in other countries. We even have fruit restrictions between states.

[@patrickbrady447]

That was spot on, he nailed the accent. I remember being asked in Ireland Do you have costome between the States in Australia. My answer was they are not very strict you can take drugs from state no problem but if you get caught with fruit you go to jail. It was a joke of course, but almost true.

[@petergreen5337]

HAHAHA brilliant. 😂😂😂

😂😂😂Hillarious, gotta love Trevor

[@pamelabaars6896]

His Aussie accent was great. Customs you would not get through if you had food, plants, seeds they would be confiscated and you would have a big fined. Then you would be on your way.

I was at customs at Melbourne Airport and the the officers were going through cases and pulling out loads of banned foods from an Asian visitor. The visitor was arguing and throwing a fit but the officers stood their ground. Melbourne, and provincial cities in Victoria, has a huge Comedy Festival annually, in March.

I have seen all sorts of things brought into the country and who knows what diseases they carry. For future tourists, just don't bring any food products with you but if you do, even if you think it doesn't count, declare "everything" you have on you and I mean *everything* . Trust me, the fines are steep and depending on what you are trying to bring in, you could even be deported on the spot. Ignorance is not an excuse.
