Will you EVER sound like a native speaker of a foreign language?

This is actually quite a complex topic that a 12 minute video will barely scratch the surface of, but these are most of my thoughts.
There are hundreds of examples of people at various places on the fluency spectrum, including some speakers Asian languages who have learned English and some English native speakers who sound perfect in Mandarin or Japanese. But there are also people who claim to sound like native speakers who do not, so I am only using the scope of my experience.
