There seem to be some inaccuracies according to some natives' comments but the guy is so cute it's worth watching it:-) As for Brazil, we're used to the meaning given to the OK gesture though some people do find it offensive and other ones do misuse it with malicious intentions.

It's a huge country and each region (some variations happening even among states) has their own culture, attitudes, vocabulary use, etc.
