Don't you just love her accent? There's something about it

submitted by nomino

She had me at "An explosive anniversary-". I love how subtle her accent is while still being evident. The rest of the broadcast is not bad either.

"Ripple Rock was an underwater, twin-peaked mountain in the Seymour Narrows of the Discovery Passage in British Columbia, Canada, a part of the marine trade route from Vancouver and coastal points north. The nearest town was Campbell River. Only 2.7 meters (9 feet) underwater at low tide, it was a marine hazard, described by the explorer George Vancouver as "one of vilest stretches of water in the world." It was destroyed by a planned explosion on April 5, 1958. Fifty years later, the City of Campbell River commissioned a Vancouver-based special effects firm to "recreate" the blast."

The Canadian accent. you guys can't hear it? Are you canadian perhaps?

Don't hear it; she looks like a pole sticking out a tent.

I hear it, but it's subtle, like you said. cool documentary though. someone should put a *fail tag because of that shitty explosion recreation at the end.

Invocations (fail) cannot be called by 2pornot2p because 2pornot2p is not privileged - sorry.

I heard a hint of french in there, but it was ridiculously minute.

I probably don't hear anything close to what Nomino hears though, damn me being Canadian.

I'm Canadian, and don't hear it.

GuyIncognito says...

Vancouver reporting in. She sounded like your average local newscaster.

I'm not Canadian and I don't hear it.

I have no clue what you're talking aboot.

Kind of reminds me of Celine Dion.
