Chinese Restaurant Prank #3: Shocking Chinese People with Fluent Chinese

One of my 7 Chinese roommates has been watching my videos and he wants to join the fun. Instead of laughing at Chinese people, let's laugh with them. Not everyone is shocked when I speak Chinese, even in Japan, but after our language switch prank failed, we finally shocked someone. Watch to the very end for a preview of my speaking fluent Japanese pranks.
Below are language learning tools I have personally used for years. Direct purchases of software from these links goes to supporting this channel.

There is a section of this video where I accidentally put my finger on the mic. Sadly, it was the best part of the whole video. Please look past that. She came up to me really fast and I grabbed the camera the wrong way. I hope it’s still enjoyable for you. Would you guys like me to do some Japanese pranks as well?

[@billpiehler9010]

Sounds not a concern for me since I'm deaf anyway 😂

Yes release more videos on Japanese and chinese too, more importantly we need your videos in America especially in china town like xiaomanyc and chris style

This is great! One suggestion, maybe make the subtitles different colors for the different people talking. Then it's easier to see who said what. I know that it's self-explanatory most of the time, but it's still nice to have a visual clue.

[@OrientalPearl]

Yeah, I got lazy on this one and just tried to get the video out fast. We filmed this a few hours ago.

[@galaxyii]

You seem like a really nice person and that's one reason I watch your videos. Also I'm amazed you can speak Chinese. I'm from the USA and I only speak English, with a little French from high school, and like 30 words in Spanish. This might sound corny, but I think that by you speaking other languages actually helps increase world peace, because when barriers are broken down, people start to trust each other more and also feel more equal. So I thank you for making these videos and helping out humanity. I hope others will take your lead and study other languages too. Ten days ago I was your 834th subscriber, now you're up to 7,320 subscribers. So before you blow up on KZbin, I want to thank you for the entertainment! Best of luck to you Oriental Pearl! Sincerely, Galaxy2

[@thephilosophocles4319]

I do not think so. There have not been any failure. You have actually succeeded as evidenced by Chinese people's reaction especially the waitress. It is just that your friendly and heartwarming personality outshine more than the prank - which makes your pranks ten times better and have their own special character.

I not sure what got me to start watching your videos but I actually enjoy them a lot. I have been to Japan several times for six months or so and learn some basic conversation and found that I would get a lot more respect when I greeted them in Japanese but I got freaked out one time in Hiroshima when I got mobbed by 30 to 40 Japanese girls wanting to speak to me in English since they all learn it in school. They actually asked me if I could come back more often so I could carry on conversations with them in English. It was fun but I definitely didn't know Japanese like they knew English but they were fine with that.
