Do Americans sprint up to Australians full speed ahead in tacky Hawaiian shirts saying shit like "CRIKEY, YOU WANNA PUT SHRIMP ON THE BARBIE MATE!" in their worst, hackneyed, impression, of an Australian accent?
It's pretty much the same thing, just the brand name, here in s.africa we get marmite (being unilver I think), as well as bovril, which is like a beef version, watch charlize explain it on fallon
Mia Vigil I expect most good-natured people would accept it as par for the course in the celebrity context. What else could you do except throw your toys out of the pram every time and get labelled a grouch or up yourself?
I put shrimp on the barbie... then again, I'm not Australian, and people typically look at me weirdly for putting shrimp on my sister's old Barbie dolls.
I don't think so, but there is a difference between shrimp & prawns, shrimp are a size smaller being the main difference, as well as a miniscule difference between their actual 'being', genetically, they're not exactly from the same family I think, like there is a slight difference between crayfish & lobster
Had no clue what the fuck was going on until I read your comment and realized that you were joking...I am french Canadian so it's my first time hearing "barbie" did not know it meant barbecue :(
Is it sad that I had nooo idea what "Barbie" meant until I put context clues together and realized it could mean barbecue😫😫😫😫 I'm American and never heard of Barbie except for the dolls
On behalf of all Aussies, Thankyou Liam Hemsworth! Clearing this up for the rest of the world... We hate it when people say, "Shrimp on the Barbie" -_-
I'm Australian and have never heard of anyone bbq'ing prawns. They're boiled and served cold with prawn cocktail sauce. Another popular thing is garlic prawns, but they're fried in a frypan with butter and garlic.
6 years old actor , then 20 years latter Independence Day resurgence 🐎 Now I finally have time to watch this show to hear 👂 actors words . How awesome 👏
OMG THANKYOU LIAM! lol. I HATE 'Shrimp on the barbie!'. Try steak or snags on the barbie. Prawns are usually drenched in tartare sauce and eaten within moments of deshelling :P
No tartar sauce for me it kills the sweet flavour of the prawns. Just squirt of lemon juice over them to sweeten the meat. Or if it's Christmas my Mum's rose seafood sauce on the side.
@S Wright Tartar sauce is for fish the best thing to put on chips is a bit of brown vinegar. If still you want something creamy on them. Then try a bit of Japanese mayonnaise it doesn't over power the chips like tartar sauce does.
Liam, I'm Australian, living in America for 30 years - and I've ALWAYS told that truth about NO SUCH THING as "shrimp on the barbie" giving that exact same explanation that you did - and Americans look at me sideways. Thank you for spreading the truth!
It's actually kinda funny that the whole "shrimp on the barbie" thing was started by Paul Hogan (an Aussie), in an American commercial promoting tourism in Australia 😂
I find it even more funny that as for the marketing agency who were promoting the Australian commercial, they had to use the word 'shrimp' instead of 'prawn' because it was understood that the general American population wouldn't understand what a prawn was.
Rach Kate damn who’s the dumb and ignorant one being hateful just because a different country doesn’t use the same wording? Shrimps and prawns are two different animals btw 👏🏼
For some ignorant Americans, 90% of all the Aussie stereotypes that they know comes from two sources: Crocodile Dundee and the Crocodile Hunter. So yes, as true as your statement is, it's also very sad, lol.
It all depends on where you live. I was born and raised in Melbourne (in the suburbs) and I have never seen a snake, crocodile or a deadly spider in my entire life. The only spiders I've come across are those daddy long legs ones and they're pretty cool cause they don't do anything. If you live in the country, outback or rural/remote areas, then you will definitely come across them more often.
@@kelse2785 shame that they can’t say here’s another word for y’all to learn (prawn) so if you do go to the land down under you will know what a shrimp is called there, I was talking to a primary school teacher over in the states in 1999 and she said it’s a shame that the learn next to nothing about the rest of the world , and because we have so much American TV movies we learn about there country by default
Useful and amusing Aussie slang expression I just found: "FIGJAM: Fuck I'm Good; Just Ask Me. Nickname for people with a high opinion of themselves." Also used ironically when completing a task.
That's not really accurate, there was a song called FIGJAM that stood for that. It was an expression that lasted maybe a year almost a decade ago. I don't think most of my friends would understand if I said Figjam.
I post in a FB group with a bunch of Aussies. Once I jokingly asked if they still eat "shrimp on the barbie"...they took the piss out of me. I learned my lesson ;)
Lola Jenkinson you speak the American lamguage, in America shellfish like that are called Shrimps, therefore you should call them shrimps, jeez, I wish all these countries using our language would stop making their own words.
Australia basically became Independent in 1901 but technically we didn't. Still, our government doesn't ask for the queen's advice in the matter of law making ect anymore so thats Independent to me
Actually we still get the queens stamp of approval and she had the power to dissolve parliament etc basically she can pull the mum card if we get to mental or she really doesnt like a law or whatever we pass. The governer general speaks on her behalf i think atm its julie bishop anyway shes consider the queens rep and gives the crown stamp of approval but nowadays it is mostly formality and the queen doesnt really exercise the power at all more like a figurehead but you know its not a bad thing and id still say where independant being in alliance under the commonwealth like canada doesnt make us less independant it just makes us smarter not to burn our bridges for the sake of 'freedom' or the illusion of independence. No nation of earth is ever truly independent will all rely on the same earth and people to make our lives worth existing. Our money with the queen on it is the best in the world technologically its easy to use and the hardest to counterfeit.
I love Liam and I'm so happy that he set the shrimp on the barbie thing straight but omfg that interviewer is annoying- let him answer the question before you move on to the next one ffs
As a fellow Aussie, it rly pisses me off, too how people think we actually say 'throw a shrimp on the barbie'. Like, no they are called prawns for crying out loud. 😂😂
Shrimp on the barbie omg please somebody in Australia really says that especially if u live in the city that is such a made up phrase haha thanks Liam for making sure people know that xx
Yep fellow Aussie here and we don't have shrimps on the bbq. Our barbies consist of sausages steak chicken sticks lamb chops. We eat prawns but never on the bbq I'm in Melbourne and it's not that friggen deadly
I went to Melbourne and Sydney in February/2018. I LOVED both cities! The Aussies I met were INCREDIBLY nice and SUPER Down to Earth! BUT I give the edge to Melbourne ;)
hahaha love the Hemsworths... actually went to my secondary school. A little worried about the reunion :s What have you done with yourself for the last 20 years? :s
I've attended countless Aussie barbies. Never seen anyone throw prawns on them. My personal preference is fresh cooked prawns with some Thousand Island dressing, especially on Christmas Day while we try not to melt.
Liam Hemsworth: "We don't say shrimp, we call them prawns. And we don't even barbecue them, people typically boil 'em" Me: *Toss some prawns in the pot, mate*
We don't boil prawns ! We boil yabbies . And pan fry prawns usually . He seemed a bit bored with the questions and answered them wrong re the dangerous spiders ect .. Yeah things are dangerous but it's not like he said. He didn't seem to be engaging properly with the host
As an Australian, I'm *thrilled* that he's out there debunking that bogus "shrimp on the barbie" phrase. Doing good work. The work of a goddamn hero.
it sounds like shrimp torture, it's horrible. (proceeds to boil crab alive)
Yes, it's terrible - I do not endorse the practice.
Absolutely. Couldn't agree more.
Do Americans sprint up to Australians full speed ahead in tacky Hawaiian shirts saying shit like "CRIKEY, YOU WANNA PUT SHRIMP ON THE BARBIE MATE!" in their worst, hackneyed, impression, of an Australian accent?
Like we need ideas to make ourselves look retarded on the international level.
He deserves many more hit movies. Such a wonderful person.
Yass Liam! Bloody prawns! Not shrimp! Representing us Aussies like a bawse! 🇦🇺👌🏻
Yeah, I'm sure that the whole prawn/shrimp debate is the most valued international debate Australians want to have.
+kanua5 for sure! 😂
It actually is though. That and the proper way to eat Vegemite.
Vegemite is utter shite. Marmite all the way.
It's pretty much the same thing, just the brand name, here in s.africa we get marmite (being unilver I think), as well as bovril, which is like a beef version, watch charlize explain it on fallon
hes probably bored of talking about his brothers
Yeah, he looks annoyed/uncomfortable.
its just the usual questions he gets lol
I'm not so sure, they have a very close-knit, happy family. Would you get sick of talking about your loved ones?
Mia Vigil I expect most good-natured people would accept it as par for the course in the celebrity context. What else could you do except throw your toys out of the pram every time and get labelled a grouch or up yourself?
Livechio they rehearse so the questions are pre approved
"Do you still have the queen on your money?"
"Yeah, we do..."
"Then you're not independent."
Burn.
damn site more tasteful than 200 year old racists! boom!
They're both rather shit.
Typical ignorant arrogance

Prawns on the boiley
Tht guy on u pict watch deep blue sea i cryes
Prawns on the boiley & bangers on the barbie :)
Bangers? ....how about snags?
I put shrimp on the barbie... then again, I'm not Australian, and people typically look at me weirdly for putting shrimp on my sister's old Barbie dolls.
funniest comment I've seen so far.
The1AndOnlyGoldenboy listen!!!! I thought that's what he meant, what the title meant, until he fully said barbeque!!! I was so confused!
The1AndOnlyGoldenboy AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA YES
I don't think so, but there is a difference between shrimp & prawns, shrimp are a size smaller being the main difference, as well as a miniscule difference between their actual 'being', genetically, they're not exactly from the same family I think, like there is a slight difference between crayfish & lobster

I love Liam. Such a great sense of humor.
Thank you Liam! Hearing someone say "Put another shrimp on the Barbie" hurts me more than any of our deadly snakes or spiders ever could
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
YES! 👌😂
They'd be a lot closer with "Put another snag on the barbie"! So frustrating.
+Julie Jenkins totally
Is it sad that I had nooo idea what "Barbie" meant until I put context clues together and realized it could mean barbecue😫😫😫😫 I'm American and never heard of Barbie except for the dolls
"Prawns in the boiling water" doesn't roll off the tongue nearly as well as "shrimp on the barbie"
"Prawns on the boil" eh?
Prawn in the pot?
but we're not Canadian though. eh
WAs about to type that
To all you Americans Canadians and European’s yes that’s how we do it.
On behalf of all Aussies, Thankyou Liam Hemsworth!
Clearing this up for the rest of the world... We hate it when people say, "Shrimp on the Barbie" -_-
liam's laugh is so adorable
Australians have the best accents
I I we sure do mate
The Kiwi accent is even better. Sorry, I meant Thi Kiwi Iccint Is Ivin Bittir.
Jim awww thanks Jimmy
Yes we do :)
Thanks mate, the Aussies agree (Me included)

Well he did say here that his brothers put him in the dryer so...

Every Australian right now is just clapping for Liam, thanking him for dispelling the shrimp on the barbie myth
Why do I love Australians so much man?
I love liam Hemsworth and Australian accents
He finally said it! No one says throw another shrimp on the barbie, ever!
I drink Fosters. So that's true. And we had two death by shark in one week in Perth just last Month.
I have never seen anyone drink fosters ever and live in perth
Ben stevenson I would also like to add, I have never seen a single Australian drink Foster's, and I mean like 90% of us drink lol.
I know, I live here too

Had to dumb it down to appeal to the Yanks and make it relatable for them even though we NEVER use the phrase and never have.

“Bless your soul” 😂

***** not even bloody close mate
Drabswin definately called the cowards punch.
Someone needed to tell them that we don’t call it shrimp...about time!

Unpopular opinion: Liam's more handsome than Chris
❤❤❤True..Chris has little eyes.😮
11 Siblings? Did his family sing "Every sperm is sacred" every time they dropped a new kid? Catholics man
LOLLL "every sperm is sacred" 😂 I'm Catholic myself and that was funny
It's a Monty Python reference.

Damn 11 siblings...?? Damnnn

his laugh makes me happy
1:45 This dude is even too handsome to have a crush on. I just watch him for aesthetic purposes.
🤣😂
I never understood why they didnt make it "we'll put another snag on the barbie for ya". We say that a lot. Shrimp is not even a word here.
cause we had to target the American audience with something they would relate to hahahh
they dont even know a thing about sausage sizzles,
What's a snag?
@@maeganlozano7058 a sausage sandwich, on bread and bbq sauce

FIGJAM is a great expression, though you mostly only hear it as an in-joke (Aussie hip hop)

Lol true how did 'shrimp on the barby' even start in Australia. We don't even say shrimp. Although sometimes I put prawns on the barby
If anything it.should be snag on a Barbie as in a sausage. Good old bunnings sausage sizzle is a weekend tradition here.
4:40 this table is soo lucky😂❤
Lol I actually really liked this interview...
AS an Australian I am so happy someone said this
I'm Australian and I didn't even know what a shrimp was when I first heard the word. So yeah he's right.
I'm from New Zealand and we have both shrimps and prawns. I have no Idea what the difference is between them.
Shrimps are the little ones often used in Chinese dishes. Prawns are what we mostly eat in Oz.
@@carokat1111 Oh, ok. Thanks

I suppose you wouldn't put shrimp on the barbie... until you've experienced the slice of Heaven that is grilled garlic ginger shrimp skewers.
We don't boil prawns ! We boil yabbies . And pan fry prawns usually . He seemed a bit bored with the questions and answered them wrong re the dangerous spiders ect .. Yeah things are dangerous but it's not like he said. He didn't seem to be engaging properly with the host
Hey I cook prawns on the barbie. 3 or 4 prawn tails on a stick and flame grilled, awesome!
Yep, same in the UK - Prawns and boiled.
you guys are missing out..grilled is tastier!
I usually just put it in noodles or a bowl of rice. Worth trying other ways for sure though
So, "Throw another prawn in the boiler"?
Prawn on the boil
Where's the rest of the interview?

Freeballing. Another Australian way of life.
you coming the raw prawn mate?
Pfff Spiders, Snakes and Sharks? It's the bloody Magpies and Plovers you have to watch out for.
wow what a background i appreciate even more the fact he went vegan
Lol.His accent is so on point I can’t take anything he says seriously 😂
He's partly joking anyway. But to Australians American accents sound pretty funny as do some other accents.
I am with Liam on this . I hate it when people say put some shrimp on the barbie like it’s a daily occurrence
*These brothers should be called "Handsworth" not Hemsworth because they are handsome and they are worthy.*
Liam Hemsworth is kind of great. I love him.
i love you Liam you're the best!!
Of all the deadly animals he didn't even mention magpies. Try surviving magpie season. Faaark!
I read somewhere online that Liam Hemsworth was a bully in high school. Nobody believes that right? He seems like a sweetheart..
people change, obviously
I can see a video of Chris Hemsworth in the top right corner staring at Liam.
Garlic prawns on the BBQ.. Yummy.. Everything is better on the BBQ.
dude... he's packing...
We don't boil them, we buy them boiled and eat them chilled.
