‘Animal Sound Man’ shows off his barnyard impressions

You’ve probably never seen a street performer quite like William Jafta.

Jafta, also known as “Animal Sound Man,” has the unique talent of perfectly mimicking farmyard sounds, to the point where you almost feel you can smell the manure.  

Jafta, who is from Cape Town, South Africa, can reproduce about 11 different animal sounds, including a cat, donkey, chicken, horse, cow and dog.  The secret to his successful impressions, he says, is that he practices daily.

The video was filmed by YouTube user Chris Schofield and quickly went viral, getting over 500,000 views after just two days online.

Jafta uses his talent for charity, collecting money for local street kids around Cape Town.
