For me as a German, the people in this video speak a heavy American accent: https://youtu.be/c9kI_rAFuKA?t=72 https://youtu.be/c9kI_rAFuKA?t=72

  Well, that's a specific regional American accent, in the US called a Southern accent. Probably the only strong/widespread regional accent really left in the states (you could also argue for AAVE/ebonics but it's not regional in the same way). It's a bit like saying that someone from rural Bavaria who speaks with a strong Bavarian accent has a heavy German accent while speaking German.

    Yes, but I'd bet that the Bavarian accent in particular is considered by foreigners as "heavy German". Bavarian culture (Oktoberfest) is considered "typical German".

      That may be, but they'd be wrong.
