Shalom Ben
In my opinion it's very amateurish and inaccurate. And his pronunciation is closer to Dutch than anything remotely resembling Hebrew or Aramaic.
It's interesting that the speaker (unless I'm mistaken) conveniently forgot to address Talitha Qumi in the part which addressed Meshikha's words. It's clearly Aramaic and not Hebrew. Or Maran Atha from Paul. That's also clearly Aramaic, not Hebrew.
Not only was the Aramaic language adopted by the common people, but the alphabet was Aramaic (Assyrian) after the captivity. Thats why you call it Ashuri (Assyrian). If you want to see original Hebrew, look at the Torah of the Samaritans in Israel today. That's Hebrew script, the original (real) Hebrew script, not what you use today Ben. Moses and David would not recognize your writing today.
I guess the Targums (not one or two) and Talmuds were for nothing, according to this guy. <!-- s
