Yeah, it's hilarious. Sure, it may only get down to about 0C where I am in winter, but the inside of my house gets down to like 8C because the insulation is non-existent. No American or Canadian or European I've met lets their house get that cold in the winter, lol.

My sister lives in Finland, where winter temperatures routinely get to -40 and they experience literal months of no sunlight. When she comes visiting Melbourne in winter, she says she can't stand how cold it gets here. We really need to reevaluate our building standards when Finland's beating us out on a comfortable winter experience.
I moved to Sydney from the Canadian Prairies (where it also gets to -30, and sometimes -40) and will agree with your Finnish friend, lol. In Australian homes in the winter, you feel like you're never going to be warm again.

I totally agree with your sister, we went to Sweden and it was -17, it was bloody warmer there and than the 9 degrees here! The house we stayed in did have triple glazed windows with a thermal break and great insulation. We have an apartment in Melbourne and they told us it was triple glazed. When I try to explain to them that having 3 pieces of glass stuck together doesn’t mean it’s triple glazed. They just didn’t get it. As for the thermal break, I lost the will to live. Way too hard to change a mind set.
I live in Australia in far north Queensland. It’s the middle of winter right now for us and literally having a cold snap right now, it said on the news. It’s 21 degrees exactly, I looked it up just then. It’s 11 at night, the suns not even out. This is as cold as it gets.

Bro we can't afford shit in America rn too. Groceries are a big issue here recently, no one can afford basic groceries. What used to be a twenty dollar grocery trip to get what you needed for a couple days gets you like 3 things now. And if you're budgeting only buying rice meals or meal items under 3 dollars each then usually you're only walking out with 15 items but most of those items require more expensive items to be in them like meat or veggies. Not to mention basic health items like toilet paper, tampons, paper towels, hair care. Scraping by.

@@JimP-tc7gg, my house is brick. We have aircon for the heat, and electric blankets for the cold. My husband was English, while we lived in England he was fine, and I wore ski pants as I felt the cold.
@@JimP-tc7gg Actually blame the pollies that refuse do anything to prioritise proper housing standards bc they all have cushy houses but make very little effort to actually enforce laws that make sure everyone else has decent housing too. Majority of people also rent and therefore are limited in what kind of structural changes they can make to the houses they live in. Also shit costs money so even if you're making enough to get insulation put in if you're renting its ENTIRELY up to the owner if they're actually willing to fork out for it. If anyone is in denial, it'd be the politicians NOT the average person.
Problem is, when you have to deal with the heat and the cold, it actually costs you more energy to cool in summer than single panes, but if you don't use it it costs you more in winter. Putting it in the right locations is important, but shading walls and windows works way better in the heat.
Unfortunately due to the lack of insulation standards, homes in Aus are terribly inefficient for both heating and cooling. All new homes should be made to be passive, so there is 0 need for air-con or heating. The house will be a constant temperate all year-round without having to do anything.
That's why rammed earth houses are the best. I used to build them, and nobody ended up needing to buy an air con or heater after they moved in. The rammed earth wall is essentially 300mm of insulation haha

Love this. So real in Australia. I can't afford the electricity bill either. What a laugh. I am in bed with hot water bottle it's freezing out. Yeah it was 15° today.
I went for a little hike in the Utah desert, was late winter/early spring and the temperature was well into the 40s... and I didn't feel it. Felt like the low 30s. I've grown up with the QLD heat that'll stick to you, this dry desert heat was hot but not the same kind of hot.
Nah it was 15° the other night and I turned the heating on. Maybe I'm secretly Australian? Oh but no, anything over 27° is unbearable so that can't be it.
Fun fact: Previously, companies extracting and selling gas from Australia were required to save a minimum of 10% for the Australian market. For whatever reason within the past few years, this requirement is no longer in place, meaning us Aussies have to compete with the rest of the world's market for our own gas. :)
Liberal sold off everything not caring about the people in it's own country, I'm sure many people were very frightened that they too may be sold as they weren't completely bolted down and untouchable...but no we allowed a lot of people to enter our country making getting a job harder, renting a place literally impossible and the politicians only worried about at what time they could announce that they were getting a huge payrise for the so called great job they were doing, and let's face it the only thing they were doing was screwing us over time and time again!
South African here, we get -5 to 15 degree weather in winter every year, the issue that my UK friends don't understand is that there is no escape. We don't have internal heating or good insulation in most of our houses because we only would need it for 2 months.
Makes sense. In the UK we occasionally get over 27° and everyone complains because our houses are built to hold the heat, not let it dissipate, so it becomes stifling (also, we're not used to it)
Southern Highlands of NSW, Australia here.... I have a wood fire to heat my house.. 2nite as I type this there is snow from Tasmania to the Queensland border... I'm only a couple of hours away from the snowfields (Thredbo, Perisher, etc) so we are getting the freezing southerly and westerly winds from the snow as they have blizzard conditions. We also have snow and sleet falling but not sitting on the ground for long. Just after 4pm my kitchen window inside the glass temperature gauge was 5 degrees celcius (usually the warmest time of the day in winter), my dining room was 10 degrees celcius and 8 foot from the wood fire it was 13 degrees celcius...in order to not freeze and because of chronic health challenges I sleep in the loungeroom and get up every 2 hours to check the fire. 15 degrees is a beautiful day maximum temperature in winter for my area... In summer we can get up to almost 45 degrees celcius (especially during the droughts and bushfire season). we normally get the summer afternoon "sea breeze" as we are close to the south coast as well. The fog rolls in over the mountains, from the east, and drops the temperature upto 15 degrees in 10 minutes.. I'm not complaining about the weather, I just hibernate in winter instead. It's funny to see some people who have different average temperatures and how they cope.. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot
@@deborahcurtis1385 He just needs to use better wood that burns hotter and lasts longer. Lots of meh wood in Australia, but our house is toasty all winter and a long burn can last 8 hours if done right, get up in the morning and chuck another log on.
The feeling of cold depends on what you are used to. I used to work with a woman in Sydney who grew up in Russia but moved to Australia in the 1970s. If the temperature dropped to below 16°C she would turn up to work in a heavy coat, a big woolen scarf, gloves and a woolen beanie, complaining about how cold it was. When I asked how cold it would get where she was from, she replied "Oh, about minus 30 or 40 or something like that."
Don't bother going to Queensland it's 15 degrees here too. I'm sitting here in a hoodie and tracky dacks underneath a wearable blanket underneath a doona and I'm still fucking freezing.
So true about the casino. For me, as a European, most Aussie houses look really fancy, with genuine wooden furniture, pools etc. And then I tell the owners that they should get windows with double glass and they tell me that it's too expensive 🤔🤔 yeaaah, it's not like you would save on electricity this way every single year, is it? 😂
Hot water bottle under the blankets for the win😬 I used to walk around Kharkiv in tshirt and jeans in 5C, I went through -40… but when I am home in Aus 15C and it’s cold and I’m all rugged up… go figure 🤯
Had an Exchange deal with my buddy from Brisbane. He comes to Canada in February at -20 for two weeks and then I go down there at 35 for three weeks. He Survived. Loved Snowmobiling and Sledding....absolutely HATED down hill skiing lol! The second he started to ski, he would freak out and drop his ass in the snow and end up in the fence. I asked him "You where skiing why did you bail?" He said "I was OUT OF CONTROL!!!" Me "You need to slide to ski" We did NOT do THAT again. We where on the Bunny hill BTW where 3 year old's learn to ski at the time.

I’m from Kuwait. At the moment I am writing this the temp is 45 C with an expected heatwave that will go past 50 C. Our winter has an average of 30 C (which we consider is a beautiful day) and if it gets really cold the lowest is like 19 C. What I wouldn’t give to be in winter right now😞
Every time I watch your videos I am reminded that the earth is in fact not flat. Thank you for that. It brings me comfort. Up in the frozen north of Canada it is a 35C right now - and in the winter it gets down to -35C, to keep everything nice and balanced.
I think i might be one of the only australians who was blessed with jot feeling the cold. Its 12° celcius, my nonnas telling me to sit infront of the heater, my nonnos telling me to „put more clothes on”. I do not feel a thing, i thought it was like 20°. I guess as a swimmer, all the winter walking out of the swimming pool to the car has made me immune. BUT on the flip side, i will wear a hoodie on 30 degree days, i do know how i dont have frost bite and heat stroke, because i will feel the heat, and not take it off. 😂
Nah this is so true, Aussie in the UK, back home I'm wearing double jackets at 15, over here I don't even consider doubling up until it reaches around 5, and that's with some caveats like If I'm not moving about. The other problem though is that I find Aussie heat manageable, the homes being built more for it, but in the UK, 25 feels like a death sentence when you have double glazed windows and thick walls.
I've heard people say that Winter in Australia does actually feel colder though than in places like Canada because our houses aren't that well insulated.
In the places in the world that have winters that get down to -20*C or lower, they certainly don't get those temperatures inside their house. In an Australian winter, the inside of the house can be almost as cold as the outside. We really need better building standards.
Every time it dips under 20 up here in Brisbane people put on what I call the "QLD Winter Uniform", which is a beanie (XXXX, Broncos or Maroons), a polar fleece hoodie (almost universally of an NRL team), a pair of shorts, and thongs. It's like our legs refuse to believe its winter.
This entire skit is so scarily relatable. I sleep under three blankets a sheet and two doona's and it's heavy as F. But I'd rather save the money. Hitting the Cas in the cold is brave, that place is freezing as F! I wish Perth, didn't have winter, it's hot as F in summer then bam, June comes around and suddenly it's a freaking arctic zone, freaking penguins might as well move in it is soo damn cold!
Freaken true, grew up in vic, sneaks up on you every year n shits ya to tears. My farmer dad would moan all winter about how cold it was, hated it as much as me. Prob coz we have the best summers.
@@bjorn1583 Anything over 30°C in the UK is a heatwave. 36°C would be practically an emergency - people die in that kind of heat. How on earth does it not feel incredibly uncomfortable?

As a Victorian, it was 6 degrees at 6pm the other day. In the middle of the night, it reached 2. But it can actually be quite sudden to go from 14 during the day to 6 at night.
Our houses have no insulation and we cant afford run the heater. We did that one year and even running it sparingly doubled our quarterly power bill so we decided never again, just wear more layers and use more blankets.
I think I might be an exchange baby from Australia, because I'm the same way with winters on the southern East Coast of America. As soon as it drops below 72 degrees, I dress like an eskimo.

Both times I've been to London it was around 30 °C the entire time.
Nah it was 15° the other night and I turned the heating on. Maybe I'm secretly Australian? Oh but no, anything over 27° is unbearable so that can't be it.
Fun fact: Previously, companies extracting and selling gas from Australia were required to save a minimum of 10% for the Australian market. For whatever reason within the past few years, this requirement is no longer in place, meaning us Aussies have to compete with the rest of the world's market for our own gas.
:)
Yeah it's called "The Rort" and it's disgusting. Our government and politicians don't give 2 shits about us and care more about their own back pockets
Liberal sold off everything not caring about the people in it's own country, I'm sure many people were very frightened that they too may be sold as they weren't completely bolted down and untouchable...but no we allowed a lot of people to enter our country making getting a job harder, renting a place literally impossible and the politicians only worried about at what time they could announce that they were getting a huge payrise for the so called great job they were doing, and let's face it the only thing they were doing was screwing us over time and time again!
You can thank the lnp for that.
An fyi as far as I'm aware, WA is the only state that still has this requirement but we still live covered in blankets too tbh
South African here, we get -5 to 15 degree weather in winter every year, the issue that my UK friends don't understand is that there is no escape. We don't have internal heating or good insulation in most of our houses because we only would need it for 2 months.
Makes sense. In the UK we occasionally get over 27° and everyone complains because our houses are built to hold the heat, not let it dissipate, so it becomes stifling (also, we're not used to it)
I come from Africa and 10 Celsius is indeed FREEZING!
LOL. My pharmacist is from Nigeria and when I asked him how he was minding +30 in Alberta his response " this is like air conditioning at home " 😂🤣😃
As someone that lives in Queensland, can confirm that the average winter day here is about 24°C (~75°F)
The funniest QLD thing I ever saw is when Shammi and his mates went to the snow and seriously wore thongs with socks underneath! 😂
You don’t even seem to be joking, as a Queenslander it was 23°C today
As someone who lives in Queensland but is also on too of a mountain. Winter averages 14 degrees by day and 2 degrees by night

"I got three fucking blankets on and I'm still freezing my dick off!"
This is what sub 10 degree weather feels like here.
Southern Highlands of NSW, Australia here.... I have a wood fire to heat my house.. 2nite as I type this there is snow from Tasmania to the Queensland border... I'm only a couple of hours away from the snowfields (Thredbo, Perisher, etc) so we are getting the freezing southerly and westerly winds from the snow as they have blizzard conditions. We also have snow and sleet falling but not sitting on the ground for long. Just after 4pm my kitchen window inside the glass temperature gauge was 5 degrees celcius (usually the warmest time of the day in winter), my dining room was 10 degrees celcius and 8 foot from the wood fire it was 13 degrees celcius...in order to not freeze and because of chronic health challenges I sleep in the loungeroom and get up every 2 hours to check the fire.
15 degrees is a beautiful day maximum temperature in winter for my area... In summer we can get up to almost 45 degrees celcius (especially during the droughts and bushfire season). we normally get the summer afternoon "sea breeze" as we are close to the south coast as well. The fog rolls in over the mountains, from the east, and drops the temperature upto 15 degrees in 10 minutes..
I'm not complaining about the weather, I just hibernate in winter instead.
It's funny to see some people who have different average temperatures and how they cope.. Blessings from South Eastern Australia, Dot
Dot have you tried an electric blanket? they say don't sleep overnight with it on but I did when I had Covid19 and it's saved me I reckon...
@@deborahcurtis1385 He just needs to use better wood that burns hotter and lasts longer. Lots of meh wood in Australia, but our house is toasty all winter and a long burn can last 8 hours if done right, get up in the morning and chuck another log on.
"You got sand for brain??"
Nice one I'm gonna start using that
In Prince George BC, we had it get up to 45C, then winter hit and it would drop to -45C. The roads just love the extreme temperature changes
I legit forgot it was winter down under. Still blows my mind sitting in the 90degree sun.
The feeling of cold depends on what you are used to. I used to work with a woman in Sydney who grew up in Russia but moved to Australia in the 1970s. If the temperature dropped to below 16°C she would turn up to work in a heavy coat, a big woolen scarf, gloves and a woolen beanie, complaining about how cold it was. When I asked how cold it would get where she was from, she replied "Oh, about minus 30 or 40 or something like that."
I'm with Jaxon on this one. No need to waste money or energy when you can just bundle up with blankets
Try an electric blanket, it's the ultimate!
Don't bother going to Queensland it's 15 degrees here too. I'm sitting here in a hoodie and tracky dacks underneath a wearable blanket underneath a doona and I'm still fucking freezing.
the weather is saying southern qld might get some snow this week
15 degrees is freezing? That's a summer's morning here in Canada.
”I’ve run the numbers I can’t afford to turn on the heater” .. Goes to casino 😂
It's warm there!
Also, might win big at the casino and be able to afford to buy a thermally efficient house, or at least be able to put the heater on until Spring
dude it was 14° yesterday 🥶 only australians know the feeling
Yeah, some days may be sunny but its still freezing.

So true about the casino.
For me, as a European, most Aussie houses look really fancy, with genuine wooden furniture, pools etc. And then I tell the owners that they should get windows with double glass and they tell me that it's too expensive 🤔🤔 yeaaah, it's not like you would save on electricity this way every single year, is it? 😂
Darcy's acting as the ambient air temperature of 15C has me absolutely gobsmacked and quaking in my skin. Absolutely breathtaking!
Theres always one who's wearing a tshirt and shorts saying its not cold, then theres the one who's over exaggeratingly cold 👍
I'm the guy in the T-shirt and shorts. I'd also turn up to school without a jumper/jacket in negative-degree weather
I haven't stopped wearing shorts for years now! I don't even OWN a pair of jeans!! It just doesn't get cold enough in Perth.
I’ve been to Melbourne recently from Sydney, first time there during winter. The weather is great
I’m down in Tassie, and last week broke records of coldness. No days got to 10C during the day, and every night was negative 2-5C.
Dear god, you Australians really do shorten everything and put "ie" at the end of it, don't you?

Can confirm.
21 today in Perth
As a Melbournian I feel this immensely

as an australian going through winter right now, im pretty fuckin cold
darcys role playing the blanket was so good
Had an Exchange deal with my buddy from Brisbane. He comes to Canada in February at -20 for two weeks and then I go down there at 35 for three weeks. He Survived. Loved Snowmobiling and Sledding....absolutely HATED down hill skiing lol! The second he started to ski, he would freak out and drop his ass in the snow and end up in the fence. I asked him "You where skiing why did you bail?" He said "I was OUT OF CONTROL!!!" Me "You need to slide to ski" We did NOT do THAT again. We where on the Bunny hill BTW where 3 year old's learn to ski at the time.

One of my friends lives in Queensland, keeps his windows and doors open to then complain about how cold it is druing winter
My windows are open year round. In winter I have 3 layers of clothes and doona over me while watching tv, never occurred to me to close the windows
It does catch me by surprise everytime. I hate winter. And heck no will i use a heater, damn the lectricity bills.
I’m from Kuwait. At the moment I am writing this the temp is 45 C with an expected heatwave that will go past 50 C. Our winter has an average of 30 C (which we consider is a beautiful day) and if it gets really cold the lowest is like 19 C. What I wouldn’t give to be in winter right now😞
Australian Cold War 😁
Definitely true. I unironically consider 15° a summer's day. Because I'm English. 😅
Every time I watch your videos I am reminded that the earth is in fact not flat. Thank you for that. It brings me comfort. Up in the frozen north of Canada it is a 35C right now - and in the winter it gets down to -35C, to keep everything nice and balanced.
I think i might be one of the only australians who was blessed with jot feeling the cold. Its 12° celcius, my nonnas telling me to sit infront of the heater, my nonnos telling me to „put more clothes on”. I do not feel a thing, i thought it was like 20°. I guess as a swimmer, all the winter walking out of the swimming pool to the car has made me immune. BUT on the flip side, i will wear a hoodie on 30 degree days, i do know how i dont have frost bite and heat stroke, because i will feel the heat, and not take it off. 😂
as the average Victorian citizen I can chill outside without a shirt at 6 degrees
I visited Australia a month ago from Scotland, and Lachlan is my reaction exactly😂
Nah this is so true, Aussie in the UK, back home I'm wearing double jackets at 15, over here I don't even consider doubling up until it reaches around 5, and that's with some caveats like If I'm not moving about.
The other problem though is that I find Aussie heat manageable, the homes being built more for it, but in the UK, 25 feels like a death sentence when you have double glazed windows and thick walls.
Darcy’s peak performance here, I truly loved how he played the part of the savage winds of Australia!
I've heard people say that Winter in Australia does actually feel colder though than in places like Canada because our houses aren't that well insulated.
Canada is weird. Here, it will go from -30 to +30 in a month.
How long does the -30 last for?

Darcy’s acting as the blanket was insanely good
In the places in the world that have winters that get down to -20*C or lower, they certainly don't get those temperatures inside their house. In an Australian winter, the inside of the house can be almost as cold as the outside. We really need better building standards.
I have that exact same orange blanket
Every time it dips under 20 up here in Brisbane people put on what I call the "QLD Winter Uniform", which is a beanie (XXXX, Broncos or Maroons), a polar fleece hoodie (almost universally of an NRL team), a pair of shorts, and thongs. It's like our legs refuse to believe its winter.
In QLD, winter lasts like 3 weeks and then goes back to normal
It really goes from freezing to some of the nicest weather, or raining like no tomorrow
@@HumanEatingDuck Exactly
This entire skit is so scarily relatable. I sleep under three blankets a sheet and two doona's and it's heavy as F. But I'd rather save the money. Hitting the Cas in the cold is brave, that place is freezing as F! I wish Perth, didn't have winter, it's hot as F in summer then bam, June comes around and suddenly it's a freaking arctic zone, freaking penguins might as well move in it is soo damn cold!

As a Victorian, it was 6 degrees at 6pm the other day. In the middle of the night, it reached 2.
But it can actually be quite sudden to go from 14 during the day to 6 at night.
Literally Cyprus. Those who know, know.
Our houses have no insulation and we cant afford run the heater.
We did that one year and even running it sparingly doubled our quarterly power bill so we decided never again, just wear more layers and use more blankets.
More of the cat please
Haha, me sitting in northern Australia just like the bloke on the couch. It's 12 degrees. Bloody winter a!
Darcy's commitment to acting as the blanket was perfection
The level of his immersion as a blanket, was so convincing, he even had the tartan colours going on
So perfect I couldn't even tell which blanket he was
