We’re all quite familiar with this clip, but could anyone please tell me which accent this is? Highly debating West-Flemish, but there are some Kempens (Kempish?) influences?

True flemmish classic !
I would say West-Flemmish because of the “aah minnen oarm!”
Yes, West Flemish! He even says “it’s broken!” As “N(j)’is deran!”
EDIT: or he says “my arm fell off!” Because the video cuts out right before the last letter is spoken, could be “deran” or “deraf”.
Minnen oarm es der of.
Very Westflemish.
In Westflemish they pronounce -lm and -rm like they do in English. For example, they would say “zoalm” instead of “zal-lum” (salmon).
oe est met zinnen arm?
Sounds more like a southern limburg accent regio Bilzen, Tongeren?
das in Oudenaarde opgenomen
Was van Roeselare dacht ik
Ironic enough he was killed in a traffic accident… RIP
Dialect van het verschieten…
minnen aorm est ‘ran (mijn arm is eraan), “is eraan” means it is broken
This is Jens Vanderheeren from Ingelmunster. He died in a traffic accident in 2015.

West-Flemish without a doubt
“Aaah minnen arm, minnen arm ist eran”
