The difference between the USA and Australia in summer is that Australia is only 20 kilometers from the surface of the sun. Or at least it feels that way.
Especially here in NQ where we have the heat + 80-90 degree humidity! 😂😂😂
Honest to who!! 💯🔆♨️
Not in tassie, we have snow instead hahah
dont forget the fact that it also feels like we are in the ocean at the same time
It's mad in Brisbane at the moment, the grass is growing that quick that you need to mow twice a week,with all the rain and humidity
All good in Kalgoorlie, power is back on.
On a highway in Tasmania many years ago a road worker was bored and decided to start clipping bushes into animal shapes. The local authorities were so impressed they bought him a whole lot of fancy garden shears and stuff, so you now travel along the highway and there’s one after the other of lions and tigers and lots more including a steam locomotive all perfectly shaped. 🇦🇺🦘
I loved it as a kid ,we always looked forward too it …they were very clever …❤️🇦🇺
Dog's breakfast (total mess) would be a correct use of an apostrophe and also an appropriate description of the road
Beer is expensive in Australia because the government has a tax excise on beer that increases ever 6 months
Also its Daylesford they charge you for just breathing the air there.
Perth-ite here, FYI that satellite photo is oriented with the east to the top of the screen.
@12:30 - the golf course is Collier Park
The track is the Belmont Park racecourse (horse racing)
That stadium next to it is the Optus stadium here in Perth.
The lizard, pretty laid back and harmless could be a Goanna, a lace monitor or a perentie. All similar, different sizes and colours. Large variety. Very common. Eastern Green Water Dragons are awesome and very inquisitive.
and will steal your redfin from your catch bag if they have half a chance. 🤣 Them and Rakalai.
I believe the loss of power in Kalgoorlie was caused by a storm with gale force winds that toppled high voltage power lines.
The summer this year here in Queensland, along the coastline is hell. It’s like trying to live in a steam oven at the moment with a massive cyclone heading our way again.
Agreed! Although I believe I'm probably a bit further down than you! I'm in gympie
Absolutely, I've only felt humidity like in Brisbane now was when I was living in Darwin 20 odd years ago.
@@clubsprt Im in Brisbane but I havent felt humidity like this since I left FNQ 30 years ago and as you probably know too, its relentless. Ive been following a really informative weather channel on yt called Force Thirteen AU and he is predicting a cat 5 cyclone that will hit just south of Townsville, come over land and spln back out to sea down near us here in Brissy and it looks huge...
Yep….we’re all on tenterhooks in Townsville NQ at the moment. 35 degree temps over the next couple of days with high humidity and waiting to see what this damned low is going to do! The low is expected to develop into a cyclone tomorrow, then fly in and start hitting us as a Cat 3 or 4 on Wednesday with the eye crossing on Thursday morning! 😳😱😬😬
@@Cyannah117 good luck and stay safe, I'm just down the road in Brisbane, lived in the ville for 5 years a while back though.
That ship from Coober Pedy is a prop from the original Mad Max. It’s at the front of a Cave hotel. I’ve stayed there a couple of times. It’s really interesting and fun fact, the temperature in the cave stays at 24°. No heating or air conditioning.
The Movie Pitch Black. Starring Vin Diesel.Filmed in Coober Pedy in the early 2000s. How you got mad max and a space ship mixed up is anyones guess😂
I'm in Newman W.A. We had low 40's for the last 3 weeks. It was 45C today and we're expecting it to heat up in the next few days. Local reaction? Suck it up, Princess.
I presume there isn't high humidity though, which would help. Here in Brisbane it's been very humid recently. I don't know how people live in Cairns or Darwin.
@@bencodykirk Normally you would be dead right. I've been here 15 years and it's only humid for an hour or two after a rain. This year we've had constant high humidity since the new year. Unheard of.
Nnnnnnooman!
@@twinflamelovepotion Hellooooo, Jerry!
@@bencodykirk 😂😂
Goanna’s got swag 🤌🏼🤣
Oh & “Buggalugs” was used in our house for the ankle biters✌🏼
The circle pattern on all glass panel's and doors is a safety design to stop people from walking in to the glass and getting hurt, most manufacturers go with the same pattern but you do find a diamond design on some office buildings.
Tyre swans are an iconic throwback that kids now wouldn't have likely seen.
80s baby growing up in Western Sydney through the 90s I remember these very well
& when they started to come out, we all thought 'how revolting'!
@@fishnchips8132 honestly, I still do. But I CAN appreciate the iconic levels of kitsch.
What a Sweet calm Tabby Cat, Luna.
The heat is something else here. I'm in Gympie Queensland and even tho it was only 30°C today it was 89% humidity! 35°C tomorrow and yard work never ends with all the rain we have had!
The biggest problem we have with GPS in Ozz is that the maps and controlling software are all from the USA and managed by imbeciles who might be experts on The Bronx and downtown Manhatten, but they have never been to Australia or even looked at a Melways .
When you have a 40 minute drive by open highway, the GPS will send you on a 3 hour drive through the Great Dividing Range ( our east coast mountain range ).
Well, google maps were developed by Australians, but our government was too short sited to make a deal with Alphabet opening a major office in Sydney. Maybe things could have been better?
@@bucinskAussie governments are famous for killing local business.
Our early wine industry killed off late 1800's.....rejuvenated in 1950's with world leading wines and then future taxed to make cooking wine more profitable .
Movie industry taxed out of business allowing Hollywood to become No1.
The list is endless.
@@bucinskgoogle maps translates to “go ogle” - nothing like total invasion of privacy combined with google earth.
Whitaker's chocolate, proudly made at home right here in N.Z 🇳🇿
Love it ❤
Loved the end shot. The cat couldn't care less about what you were doing as cats generally do unless you open a tin or a bag.
Marble Bar in WA is Australia's hottest town. Marble Bar earned the title of Australia's hottest town when it recorded the longest heatwave - 160 days over 37.7C (99.86F) degrees - in 1923 and 1924. Marble Bar ended a 26-day straight stretch of maximums over 43C (109.4F) on Sunday 15th of January, when the mercury peaked at 42.5C (108.5F) at 4:00pm.
Your cat's face was totally "I am plotting your demise, human" :P.
Haha totally 😅
If the advertised price on food is different on the receipt you are entitled to get the item for free.
G'day Mate! That loose change thing...we have 1 & 2 dollar coins in with the other shrapnel and it is really easy to end up with over $10 in "loose" change...As a matter of fact I just looked and have 2 x $2, 4 x $1 and $1.45 in smaller coins in my bumbag... Cheers!
That VL Calais behind you was EVERY teen boy's dream car here in the '90's. If you had one you were king 👍😊🇦🇺
I bought a Truck specific GPS, you input your trucks dimensions and max weight supposed to not route you incorrectly, but I used to still double check the route with an old-fashioned map 1st,
Like one should, right?
Whittakers chocolate is Kiwi. And really good - BUT - Coles and Woollies no longer sell their pure white chocolate, just a blond caramel version. Ahhhhhhhh.........
Pitch black is the first movie of "riddik" great film for it's time.
That's why in Coober Pedy they live underground.
This week in QLD, we are facing another heat wave this week. Also facing another Cyclone up north, they haven't been able to finish cleaning up after Jasper before Christmas. The state and many parts of Eastern Australia, have had bad bushfires, horrific storms and floods. It looks like here we are facing a repeat of storms and more floods, the ground is very soggy, and due to the (up to 100% ) humidity more rain is not good. Not to forget the grass is hard to mow, in 2 days it needs it again. Yet western areas of QLD need rain badly, poor guys are missing out. It would be great to send some of this rain to them. But this is Australia's weather, full of extremes.
Hey, I live in Murwillumbah 😁 Ian, you pronounced Murwillumbah perfectly! Usually if I am on the phone with a business whose head office is in one city or another, they will opt to spell Murwillumbah back to me rather than try to pronounce it 😂 Name meaning = place of many possums 😊 Luna is beautiful by the way 🥰
Hi angry cat, Luna! 😻 Never trust the GPS only! Hey Goanna, so cute! Queensland, never ending weather! Kalgoorlie, my sister lived there short term, and is never going back! Cockatoos can be very naughty! Perth, just underdeveloped! Slip, slop, slap! Loose change, maybe for a soft serve! Just fix it! Arnotts malt O milk, yum! Cooper Pedy, so cool underground, or is it space X! Bumblenut is a friend of the banksia men! Fun Ian! 😁
I'm late to the party, but in case no one has already said so, Whittakers chocolate is Kiwi made ... Aussies trying to steal our stuff AGAIN ...hahaha .... love Aussies (I live here, so gotta love ya's) lolol
Hi Luna😻 I just about broke my nose on a brand new glass door at the local shop once. No safety motif yet installed. Hurt for about a week. I wasn’t angry until the manager said that he knew someone was going to do what I’d done. Why didn’t he just stick a poster on it?I’ve not forgotten Night Owl 😅
We were staying at a resort in Port MacQuarrie, NSW and my Dad, who was in the early stage of dementia, twice tried to go through a sliding glass door that had no motif on it. I ended up using medical tape to put a big cross on each of the glass doors. I also wrote a complaint to the company.
Can someone setup a go fundme to get iwrocker out here?
I didn't know the Aussie's called them "safety motifs". In the UK those stickers on glass doors or panels are generally called "manifestations" and are often made to look like patches of frosted glass.
The road is in the Dandenong ranges , those roads are 80kms with hair pin turns.. I learned to drive there..
5:00 We call them Goannas...
Why do you call them that? =)
@@UncleJoeLITE Old time folk were lazy and instead of Iguana called them Goanna. Guess it was Guana originally, but evolved into its own form.
A Goanna is a monitor though so he wasn't wrong
@@AndrewFishman. Gonna is only 1 aboriginal name for 1 species of lizard
Goanna is not an aboriginal name for anything @@shanevonharten3100
It has been hot. I keep my hot water bottle in the freezer and wrap it in a big tea towel and take that to bed😁
Pitch Black is a fantastic movie, one of my favourites ❤ The Chronicles of Riddick is like what happened after that, it's how he knew the holy man and Jack
Fun fact - the VL Commodore in Australia is often referred to as "the Lebanese Lamborghini"
I'll let some other aussys in the comments explain why.
I have 2 HDT VL V8s. Despite the V8 rumble, I still get asked what boost it’s running….😮.
It amazes me how many young people think that all VLs are turbos, and they only came in Calais and yellow SLs…….
That Perth pic was rotated 90 degrees for some reason. Perth is on the west coast, so the ocen is to the west, the top of the image was east. That track is for horse racing, specifically trap racing. The arena next to it is Optus Stadium, which hosts both cricket and AFL matches, and is the largest stadium in Perth. It's also the newest and most expensive stadium in Australia. As to it's size, I believe Perth has the largest urban sprawl of any city on earth, despite having just 2 million people.
Kalgoorlie residents here! That power outage went for three days. No communication with outside world at all during that time. We had to travel about 50 kilometres to get a signal to message loved ones to let them know that we were ok and then queue up for half an hour for fuel.
Buggalugs and boofhead were what dad called me lol Still does, though I am in my 50s.
We called our cat buggerlugs😂
@@chookchook2451 yup still get boofhead from the old girl till this day
Haha my son is 28, still call him Boof
My dog, whose name is Harvey, responds to Boof as if its his name because I always ask him if he has to be such a boofhead. 😂@@maxfish4770
Is your dad English? My dad is from Nottingham, England and he used to use buggalugs all the time (maybe he still does - he's halfway around the world; I don't see him much any more).
The most laughable point on the Sunbury road conditions is it is now part of Melbourne ( or should be ) and is no longer the remote northern country area that hosted Australia's own Woodstock in the early 1970's.
Sunbury is only 5 minutes drive from Melbournes international airport , Tullamarine.
In the 1990's , the new huge land developments and housing estates were on Sunbury's doorstep with million dollar estates only about 10 minutes walk away .
Yet the billionaires in council can't find any spare money to fix the roads. lol
Whittakers is kiwi anyway though
We live in rural Western Australia (the southern wheatbelt) and today it was 111f (43c) and it’s been pretty regularly like that.
The locals call Kalgoorlie Kal.
Coober Pedy - pronounced Coober PeeDee
The West coast has been real hot with lots of bush fire while the east coast has been flooding - crazy summer
Here's some more words, Chooks (chickens), and Bum Nuts, Cackle Berries (eggs)
Eggs...an instant meal. From a chook's arse straight to your plate! 😁😁 (Especially in my case, seeing as I have chooks!)
28:14 We had a news report about this in New Zealand & it turned out that it is due to staff putting out the labels on shelves for specials early (on the weekend when low customer numbers) for specials that start on Monday. The good news is that the Supermarket (at least in NZ) MUST honour the special price even if the special has not started yet so it pays to bring a calculator & add up the prices & check the checkout display to see they match. Also means the best day & time to do your weekly shop is late Sunday but I hate the crowded supermarket so do it early on Saturday so not likely to have the chance for some cheap savings.
Same in Australia, retailers by law have to honour the ticket price regardless if correct or not
the lizard looks like a perentie and i love them.
SUNBURY was a sattelite town around the 1960's designed to entice people to live outside the city of Melbourne. also, it also has Australia's FIRST VINEYARD.
AND the famous Sunbury Rock Festival in 1972 I think from memory
It is also the home of the ashes (cricket)
Was in Kalgoorlie in 1989 in summer. Temperature was 47C. Power was good so air-conditioning was operational. However the air-conditioning was provided by a rooftop evaporative unit which dropped ambient temperature by 10-15C but raised humidity. Result: indoor temperature 35C with 80% humidity. Nice and tropical.
Oh, a custom made car in Australia has also been called a Perentie. Looks a bit like an older Corvette stingray with incredible sparkly paint. There is also Elfin cars, open wheeler with LS1 engines, two seaters - awesome. Also Purvis Eureka etc.
Can someone setup a go fundme to get iwrocker out here?
Your cats face said, I AM NOT AMUSED! 🤣
It reminds me of galston gorge near Sydney
I'm lucky enough to have a local farming family, my family have known for 40+ years. I even have a key to their dairy, to get the best milk available.
That was Optus Stadium and Belmont Horse racing track on the Burswood Peninsula, Optus Stadium seats 60,000, and is voted most beautiful stadium in the world, no joke. Hosted the AFL grand final in 2021 during the crazy covid times.
48 C today where I am in remote South Australia, can see dark clouds in the distance.....bring on the rain
There is no way anyone is paying $17 for a normal beer, he must be buying craft beers. Otherwise no one would go there.
Try Orange NSW, half hour west of Bathurst - this is where all of Australias Potholes go to retire! The "Still F____ed" sign should be the local council motto...
There’s a road that goes from Nabiac (NSW) through Dyers Crossing. West of the Dyers bridge, the entire road surface is patched potholes - not a single part of the original road left. I’ve heard locals call it “grandpa’s axe” and also joke that it’s where they send all the new council workers to learn how to fill potholes….
lol - have you heard of "Start Ya Bastard!" - it's an Aussie can of spray ether for starting engines :D
I had to repost this on your video after i posted it on another video reacting to the same Aussie things this week...
isnack 2.0 (or as is called these days "Vegemite cheesybite") is a mixture of Vegemite and cream cheese. Not as strong as regular Vegemite.
When it first came out there was a competition to name it. "Isnack 2.0 was what came out of it. Until we thought it was stupid, so they changed it to eventually become "cheesybite"
Pitch Black - Of course I remember, one of Vin Diesel's first outings. Soooo HOT!!! RIDDICK BRO!!
The Sunbury sign is real. The roads are atrocious. We pay the rates but the roads are still shit.
You’re a good young bloke, Ian. Very likeable and amiable.
Some knob tried to take a fridge on a train once to save on delivery costs. He wasn't allowed on and it made it on the news with the actual security footage. Can't believe the motorcycle was allowed on.
3:28 I'm not quite sure, but that looks suspiciously like the Cape Tribulation Road over one of the ranges. But I could be way off. Definitely the Dry season but looks like that road. I drove over it hundreds of times some 10 years ago. EDIT: Aaah, that's why it's familiar. I've driven that road a few times as well.
I think the ISNACK 2.0 was a rerelease of 'Cheesy Vegemite'
I rescued a guy who followed his GPS deep into the Australian bush. Found him exhausted and distressed, walking along a track.
When we finally got to his very stuck Mazda 929 I couldn’t believe it.
I wouldn’t drive my Landcruiser close enough for a recovery without first walking it.
Can someone setup a go fundme to get iwrocker out here?
8:54 it only 36°C and Humidity: 18% there today.
Pitch Black terrified me as a kid. Had a nightmare from it and had trouble going to sleep for nearly a year..
Faced my fear and watched it again as an adult, and was bored af 😂
The lizard is a Goanna!
There is a advert on tv at moment, starring Andre Agassi, making fun of his lack of a mullet now. A kid, with a mullet, at the end hands him a tube of sunscreen and says "for your neck" Yes the Vegemite 2.0 is just like "soup in a cup" they somehow find their way to the back of the cupboard or bottom of the draw. Yes that does look like a motorcycle! There was a vid on RUclips some years back where someone was moving, using the Queensland train system, he had loaded his couch onto the train and stood it on it's end! Saw another with a fridge on a train. When there is a will there is a way
44c or 111F in my region (60 kms north of Adelaide) yesterday
That’s just summer to us, nothing unusual or out of the ordinary
God in the 70’s and 80’s we would get a week or more of temperatures like that
Keep in mind, "loose change" in Australia is worth more because of the coins we have, we can make $10 with just 5 coins.
Beautiful, placid cat!!
Kalgoorlie, just pronounce it as if the "R" is silent = Kalgoolie
Cooper Pedy, the "Pedy" is pronounced Peedy = Cooper Peedy. lol
Coober not Cooper
I can't believe the unscrupulous practices like price hikes, hidden costs and dubious pricings on the shelves that large chain supermarkets are pulling these days. As an Australian it is so disappointing to see iconic Aussie companies that have been in business for generations stoop to this level of greed. It is downright un-Australian. But I believe the government is finally doing something about it and has put them on notice. It's about time, too.
cool you said 'footpath' - sounds like you're coming over to the real world 🙃
G'day! Watching from my home here in Melbourne, Australia 🦘🇦🇺😁👍
hI Ian Sydney had a lightning storm yesterday. a lightning hit the Runway AND MADE A HOLE IN IT. WHICH MEANT they had to close the airport. cheers
You’re working this weekend but don’t forget to take January 26th off because it’s Australia Day 🇦🇺. There’s lots of controversy surrounding Woollies, ALDI and Big W not carrying Australian flags or other Australia Day merch because some people might be offended by it (some Aboriginal people and migrants). Most people aren’t happy about this and all of these shops are losing money. I plan to wave a big Australian flag in front of those shops and sing a bunch of Aussie songs in the aisles while not buying anything.
Here in Townsville NQ, we’ll probably be spending Australia Day still holed up or recovering from a Cat 3 cyclone. 😢 In saying that, Australia Day is a big part of Australian history and we are being asked by the indigenous community (and seemingly by a government under pressure) to wipe out our history and not celebrate it anymore in deference to them. History is history, it can’t be changed…yes there were atrocities perpetrated against the indigenous peoples by the first European settlers, but why can’t we just get past it as a nation and work together to build a better nation? Why do we have to scrub all painful history, it is what has grown us a nation. The last 20+ years have been years of change, with the balance leaning toward indigenous rights, and now indigenous rights are starting to overtake other Australian rights. The indigenous also perpetrated atrocities against the settlers…but that seems to have been forgotten or deemed as unimportant in the overall view. 😢 We need to respect everyone’s history and nationalities. Australia is a melting pot and is compromised of many, many nationalities and is a worldwide beacon for peace. Let go of the hate and embrace love for all, no matter your colour, creed, sexuality or whatever. ❤ BTW… never bring up the stolen generation to me…. Our indigenous community are not the only ones that had their children stolen by the Australian government! Many, many others had their children taken, especially migrants who were, in their eyes, single parents and women pregnant out of “wedlock”. 🤬 I was one of those children…..
@@Cyannah117 well said!
well for me I will support it. Yet I celebrate it differently as Australia came independent from Britain in 1901 which many for get
@littlecatfeet9064 There was no state of Queensland on Jan 26 1788, and there was also no Australia. When Philip landed the First Fleet in Farm Cove, he declared the colony of New South Wales as a British colony. The date wasn't even a public holiday until the 1990's. Some fools might have a Dutton Culture War party outside Woolworths to show them what's what, but all that they will be displaying is ignorace.
I hope Kirrily leaves you no more than wet. We'll be thinking of you banana benders. Take care.
@@Cyannah117 The British colony of New South Wales was founded on Jan 26th, not the nation of Australia. This date brings pain to many. I'm glad you can kick up your bogan heels and celebrate the forming of a British jail in 1788.
Dunno why there's no power out in Kal, the West Kal generators fired up. I thought they could run islanded from the SWIS?
Greetings from Melbourne Aust. Regarding GPS, i hired a car for a Canberra trip once, and several times the GPS instructed me to drive into Lake Burley Griffin.
Regarding the loose change. Australian $1 and $2 are coins so it's easy to have a spare change jar or piggy bank with 100's of dollars in it.
Your cat seemed disappointed after the whole thing. "Was that it? No petting? No treat?"
The Woolies total not matching the itemised list was not as sly as was being made out.
The total was actually correct. One of the line items, mangoes I think, was listed on the screen way underpriced but the register calculated using the correct price.
In other words, it should have been obvious to the consumer given that even though the item was on sale, half price I think, the price shown here was something like half that again.
The screen also reads "5 items" at the top right corner when only four are on the display and in the calculation...
@@jellobiafra1931I thought that at first too, but each mango is an item and there’s a qty of 2. Three other things plus two mangoes
You need to check out the underground homes in Coober Pedy
KAL GOO LEE.... COMING TO AUSTRALIA? BE PREPARED TO BE BAKED MEDIUM RARE.
Australia so hot right now. Australia.
6:48 The Nibiru, Flat Earth, and alien invasion conspiracy theorists will LOVE that image.
Alcohol tax increased to insane levels, stupid government reaping a windfall ripping off drinkers because we supposedly drink too much, only one to suffer here is the pubs as we stop drinking in the venues.
31:47 you absolutely can use sunscreen in winter, it might not be maximum intensity but you can still cop a burn even when its cloudy. and if its white out, snow reflects it back up.
I had 103ºF today, forecast 112º next Tuesday. But we do have electricity, and should that go down, I do have a generator. Mid North South Oz.
Last pint I bought in a pub was $1.06. Yes, it was a while back. *Coober Peedee* is the pronunciation.
Wow I think I have driven this road, my cousin said can you move over me….no why? Well next second a truck was coming around the bend. Me now do you understand.. I am glad I was driving.❤❤
There is a town in Northern parts of NZ. Black cockatoo that everyday break into bins. Can not remember Town name.
Copper Peeeedy mate. . . onya hey. . .
The decals on glass doors are to stop you walking into them. 😁
Dalesford - tourist-y
Whittakers chocolate?!? full poo mate
By law every glass door must have that symbol on it for safety reasons. So that you can see there is a door there and not walk straight into it.
Hi Ian, that road look's like Macquarie pass in NSW, I've been driving semi trailers for over 40yrs and I've taken a semi trailer down that road and some of the corner's are so tight that your trailer wheel's are going backwards, definitely not a road for the faint of heart truckies, Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘
