Time marches on. It's only governments that stand still. Townships like Longreach survive and sometimes prosper but they cannot develop alone. It's only Australians, including those from overseas, that have the foresight and capacity to develop our country. Politicians, bless their heart, are only seat warmers. Your community can make our country work.

I met a guy who's grandfather worked on the first bridge, his father worked on the second bridge, and now, he was working on the new bridge.
i am in LOVE with the absolutely cute as anything woman in pink in the thumbnail ❤❤❤❤❤
Aren't we all? A lovely lady.
great doco
The lady presenter deserved more screen time
Iappreciated that bit of history…..being a relative newcomer to Redcliffe in 1980
Those people re the original people of Australia 100% australian natives all that land it os belong to them period ❤❤❤❤
I remember last time I walked over it I was surprised it was open to the public. There were holes in the deck big enough for a child to fall clear through into the water, easy.
Kalbar was sold, or given, to an Aboriginal Organization who stripped the Starion & left it. They took the money & split. It's good to see the locals are doing something with it. Well done fellars.
Great Doco
Loved living there for 25years ❤ wonderful memories 😊
Great 👌 thanks u tube
The bridge girders on the eastern side were severely attacked by termites, Coptotermes acinaciformis. The girders on the western side of the bridge had very little to no termite infestations. I was a member of a team from QLD Forest Services that undertook an inspection of the bridge timbers after the closure of the bridge and before its dismantling.
As a Californian born and raised and seeing the techies and big money people ruin the place I love I sometimes feel like I might just be a homesick Australian.
Hi Meghan, I understand, thanks for your comments. Being a well travelled doco maker and veteran, I will always call Australia home. No wars, no polotics to speak of, just a wonderful country to see and live in. Live life and enjoy happiness. John (Producer).
Had a friend Kevin that hit the Brighton end of the bridge on his bike in 70, s he was dead on the spot
Wow what brave resilient people. Awesome, excited for them and what the future may hold.
When was this filmed ?
2004.
All my very best wishes to you mates!
That helicopter pilot is BADASS!!!
I don,t know how he get,s his BALLS in the chopper.
The helicopter pilots are crazy
PCR = Professional calf riding.
I would wager to say you got a fine stock of young people there. While we're losing ours, you seem to be growing yours. Sure hope you continue on this path because your young folk seem to be a right-minded lot. God bless ya all.
Why I buy meat Local, he said these animals make it into US hamburger yuk!!
This right here is one of the other reasons I would love to live in Australia
It's a shame the old bridge could not be saved, as it was used by pedestrians and recreational fishers after the new bridge was opened. I had the privilege of walking along the old bridge around 2002-03 before it was demolished completely.
Brings back memories as a young fella working at Mudgimberri buffalo Station when it was operating and Anthony’s Lagoon. Hard tough life. Hats off to all the guys having a go.
Hopefully they realise what they have before it’s gone. 👍
At 14.18 the Kittyhawk was the aircraft that was the most successful ...they got the Kittyhawk immediately after they stopped flying the Hurricanes...the Kittyhawk and Tomahawk were virtually the sole air force of the cell three squadron type aircraft for three years right through the North African campaign and right through the Eastern Mediterranean and Yugoslavian areas the Kittyhawk carried that by itself, and it was a brilliant aircraft...2,000 pounds of bombs
Don't listen to those Greeny Townes..All they are good for is sucking water out of rivers and not leaving enough water in the rivers for the biodiversity for aquatic life
is there anymore documentaries about this exact place, more current documentaries to see how its become?
ABC Australia did a similar job about a year ago and everything is about the same. Thr aborigines have been here 65,000 years and we don't have to teach them anything, just how to drive.
Australians are a trip...now let's add bulls to the list of invasive species..let's see..we have your Cane Toad, your Emus, your Rabbits, your wild horses, your Camel. your feral cat, your Red Deer, your feral goat, your feral pig, your Red Fox, your Water Buffalo and many species of birds, plants, fish and insects...Australia is the petri dish of the world...keep it all in Australian and by the way, who's in charge of this here outfit?
Emus belong here,what makes you think they come from somewhere else,fool!
Emus...??? You sure mate..
@@56davidwright Of course, these giant birds brought in men with automatic weapons to kill them, as the story goes.. ruclips.net/video/ejiYxSWrkdY/видео.html
Listen to this one here fella here bud i neva seen no black fella release any of thes animals you gammon on bud were you from bro.......emu plenty good tucker and lived here before them fuckin rabbits toads and all that other shit ....
@@MICKMAKO13 I'm from Colorado USA and you're right, not a single black person in Australia release any rabbits, Caine toads or what ever else. White man brought a lot of heart ache to Australia and to the aborigine people..
Great story. Should apply for some of that $30 billion the government gives to the Aboriginal organizations
I always felt it was to bad our American Indians did not take up ranching ?!!
You could well be right …
Only one I know of that took up ranching is the navajo, Apache, and hopi tribes . But it is slowly dying because of drought and prices of live cattle ain't enough to cover the cost of ranching. I am part of the navajo tribe had at one time had up 100 head of cattle, and now down to only 40 cattle . Have to haul water for cattle every day. Newer generations have left the reservation for easy money and higher paying jobs.
You've never been to the Navajo Nation.
To funny how old are these lies.! I helped build you school butchery yards houses buy the 100 parks shops, then I go back gone all gone run down trashed burnt destroyed...... And I'm half Murry so it makes me mad as f*#$ to see this waste and disrespect.! Go to work for 52 weeks a year and teach don't preach.! If the elders don't work what can they teach the future generations about respect for people property and all !
Nothing unusual here! Just people doing everyday chores!!
HEY!🐂🇦🇺
Problem-Reaction-Solution, old divide and conquer strategy
Who let those out in the first place?
He said the whites over 100 years ago.
No way the corporation would let them manage their own affairs without white anting them. I wonder how they are fairing nine years on
This is back home.
My hats off to all these brave capable men, called Cowboys here in the States, for working these cattle. There was many a Ranch started here in the Western United States, rounding up wild cattle to serve as a start.
Hard way to make a living! Good on ya ! Hunters like to shoot them but why not make a dollar ? Hunters won't solve the problem.
Love these videos and the people in them.❤❤❤
Great video, good to see the people who belong to this country getting young people out on their traditional land and living and working instead of being shackled to the town lifestyle.
On ya Mick Ross, I miss ya mate not being up there and now in the Territory. Want to bring family to visit you and Kalpower some day shortly. Stay safe Mick
I have great memories of crossing the old bridge on my way to my job at the High School. I was an American recruited by the Labor Government of the time. I travelled it often, and even enjoyed the bumpy ride. It opened the way to Brisbane, a place to later become my home as I took a job at Kelvin Grove College of Advanced Education. I was a Lecturer there and enjoyed my time there. I lived in Brisbane for two years and had the opportunity to travel the newer bridge in 1978 and drive by my place at Bay Boats. All great memories. My students are now retired teachers and, I still am in contact with a few of them. They have visited me near Silicon Valley, California, and their kids have taken trips here later as well. I have a sweet spot in my heart for Redcliffe, and Australia, overall.
We're so excited that you're going to be speaking to us about this film at our next meeting in October. So wonderful that you've captured such an important part of our Redcliffe history. 😍
my great great uncle was kia aboard that ship. alywn latimar clarke 21 years old

I'm Ashleigh Hutton R J Hutton was my uncle. I am 70 his only niece. I never got to meet him as I wasn't born for another 9 years after he died. He was only 20, his bother my father said he was full life. Rest in peace Robert John Hutton.💓
They should not be allowed to have sexist gender based organisations like this. It just reinforces gender segregation and stereotypes. They should be unisex community sheds. Get over gender. It's got to a stage where I can't reach out in regards to my mental health, breaking social isolation or spiritual connection without people trying to push me into a gender based group, such as a men's shed. I'm tired of hearing about them. I'm tired of gender. I will not be dealing with any community organisation, church or business that actively supports this or any other men's shed.
