There's a British guy on YouTube under the nickname "usenetposts" who has posted videos speaking what I can only guess is pretty native-level Polish, and also very good German. I presume he speaks others, but I've only just come across his channel.

That's my buddy Huliganov..hope I spelled that right. I love his Russian accent. I've watched one of his videos regarding Russian like 50+ times because of his accent.

Do you know what languages he speaks? He doesn't seem to list them anywhere. No doubt Russian can be added to the list! His German accent is very nice too, which is quite rare to find in a non-native speaker, and although I don't know a blind word of Polish, the ease with which he appears to speak it in a video I watched gives me the impression of a native-level command. I'd love for some native Polish speakers to confirm this.

If you’re into wordlists, his Gold List Method for making them is well worth a look.
His method includes a form of spaced repitition to memorize vocabulary.

Where is he speaking Polish?
EDIT: found some
His Polish pronunciation is not quite on point, but it's very close. He does make some grammar mistakes that are a bit basic, but considering the complexity of the content it's still a very good performance imo.

His German accent is impressive. Very rare indeed for a non-native speaker.
He has apparently studied 20 languages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Usenetpostsdotcom
I love Iversen`s wordlist method, so I`m curious about this Gold List Method. Going to watch his 1 hour video on the method now.
