Schwarzenegger Speaking German

I always knew he could, but I'd never heard him until now:



What stands out to me is the fact that he DOES NOT CHANGE HIS ACCENT AT ALL when speaking German or English. I don't know if this is a conscious decision on his part, though somehow I suspect it might be. It also seems like he doesn't speak German much anymore, since he has some word-finding problems here and there. Also, notice how he refers to himself as Stadtsberger, but the caption says Gouverneur.

Funny also how none of his movies ever exploited his ability to speak German, either. Again, must've been a conscious decision.
