I just imagined that and laughed too hard lol

[@CosmicTeapot]

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED: (to be read with Morgan Freeman's voice) '' *Watch how this firm and crispy clean film of white paint slowly adheres to the structure, like a heavenly glue tightening under the unstoppable force of time... Who are we? What is our purpose?... I like to think that we are nothing but small liquids, frenetically moving during all of our existence and fighting against the inevitability of fate... until, one day, like this paint drying, we dry up... we solidify... become rigid... adhere to the ground until we become part of it... form a single entity with our environment. Then, like each of the molecules composing the paint who rearrange themselves with the ambient air, forming new bonds, we are reborn. That, is the way of life.* ''

He’s got a convincing voice that draws the listeners attention. Let’s put it that way. The way he pronounces and annunciates his wording and how’s it pulls you in is what makes it so special.

As is with most people that have a great voice, it usually turns out they didn't know it until someone else told them. At least that is the case with many people I have known throughout the voice over industry. Many times they didn't seek out a career in voice overs or voice acting, it found them.
