Just to foster the spirit of trust necessary to make students feel comfortable in a learning environment, here's a video of a guy totally tricking his classmates about his identity for an entire semester! 

YouTuber Jose Barrientos spent an entire semester of speech class pretending he was Mexican. He gave speeches on how he is best represented by a piñata, the real history of Cinco de Mayo, and his personal hero, David Hasselhoff (which we thought was more of a German stereotype, but whatever).Then, for his final speech, and this video, the big reveal -- he was just pretending all along. There's also lots of footage of his fellow students expressing shock, except for one genius who was with us on the Hasselhoff thing. We commend her -- good job, lady. Good job.
