Gaijin Power in Osaka (大阪弁)

This somewhat long video is a really fun show I happened to see a gaijin street performer put on in front of the big aquarium in Osaka. This guy used more Osaka-ben (Osaka dialect) than any Japanese people I met there, and so I thought it would be cool to showcase a little of it.

@Ashitaka1110 Not really, Gaijin 外人 is just short for 外国人, which is foreigner, meaning you're not from that nation. 外国＝foreign country. 外(prounced soto) means outside, but not the outside as in outsider, just outside like outside your house or outside of a place... If it were outsider then you'd pronounce it sotojin, which makes no sense since 外（そと、soto) is a Kun yomi (native reading) and 外人( ガイジン、gaijin), is On yomi (chinese reading) China being a 外国, foreign country which they adopted 漢字 kanji
