Okay, but that doesn't change the fact that in Australia there are 48 million kangaroos and in Uruguay there are 3,457,480 inhabitants, so if kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, each Uruguayan will have to fight 14 kangaroos.
As a Kiwi I've always referred to Australia as the USA to our Canada. They are unbelievably powerful and honestly I think we're just happy to get along with them, for the most part.
Hey brother or sister, an aussie here, yeah our country's are pretty tight, and we (as the person a bit above me said) are very happy to be friends with you kiwis!
Australia has a massive case of imposter syndrome, due to its penal colony history and it's wealth now being pretty much entirely generated from digging holes in the ground, as explained in the video
@@Aussieboy329 we are a country of 25 million, in a land mass the size of the Continental United States which has a population of 320million in same space. Yes we are mineral rich, but that is often a curse than a blessing, when look at pretty much any country with resource boon. But yet we thrive, we strive to be the best we can be in all things. Our economy is robust, yea we get a lot from resource industries, but not beholden to it. We kick ass in sports at world level. Most of us look good in speedos 😛, and besides some hiccups we seems to have acquitted ourself well diplomatically and militarily. We punch well above our weight
Important think to note about Australia is while much of the country can be mostly dry at times on the surface, it also has the worlds largest aquapher called the Great Artesian basin, it covers 1.7 million square kilometers, the state of NSW alone has over 5000 million mega litres in aquaphers, even the city of Sydney has an 141 square Km aquifer under it. Australia tends not to use its underground water to the same extent other countries, but it is nice to know it's available if needed.
thing is, while we under-use our bore resources and whatnot but we cant fall in the trap of west USA which have basically used their entire aquifer on farming in sub-desert climates and is facing a massive watershortage.
@Peepee Train if we can work around not using the aquapher, we shouldn't, think of it as a water bank, only to be used when it is absolutely necessary...
Not to mention we also don't have large desalination plants in use. Nations States like Israel for instance which have very little arable land and water basins have relied on desalination for water security, Australia has a few desalination plants but very few for the size of its population, if we did decide to use them as well as pipeline desalinated water across the country, it would very easily solve our water problem, we would never run out of water. In addition, we could manufacture man-made dams and catchments like other countries have, as when we do have big rain periods we could harvest enough water to survive through the dry periods. As for power, same thing on one side you have the "we can't use coal" and on the other you have the "we can't use renewables" camps. What we could do is use nuclear energy but it's currently banned and considering Australia has very strict standards for storage of nuclear material and plenty of inarable land to stick it in, it's really a no brainer for energy, we also have high reserves of uranium to us, but again the environmentalists will be up in arms. The problem we have really as a country is poor leadership and we're too focused on mining rather than creating infrastructure or cities. All the infrastructure we create is usually toll roads and highways or stadiums for cities, not pipelines or dams for catchments in rural areas. Or we create massive suburbs on the fringes of the cities and just have massive city expansion or urban sprawl. Our manufacturing is all pretty much gone too, car companies like Ford, Holden, Toyota all gone and moved their manufacturing overseas. Steel plants used to be big industry here but wages, electricity prices and other regulations made it expensive to produce steel here, so expensive that companies just ship the iron to another country from Australia and make it there. Power is getting more expensive for environmental concerns/reasons making industry just more expensive in general compared to other countries where electricity is far cheaper. Anything we do create now also has big budget blow outs or never meet deadlines like the Snow Hydro 2.0 or Melbourne's highway systems. We're just not a serious country anymore. We had a golden age between 1980-2008.
australia is basically just if someone took a European power, gave them a continent that’s mostly desert, and slapped them off the coast from indonesia
YEAH, 🤣surprised you can't hear them laughing their heads off at such a stupid headline. Anyone who has spent any time in our Military, KNOWS the joke this stament is, and the joke is on all Australians who believe it.
As a rural Australian living in semi-desert land, I appreciate you for mentioning us and our land, we never get any mentions, it’s only the cities, but the people here are lovely and hard-working, the land is absolutely stunning, the animals are fascinating, the freedom is impeccable etc. I would hate to live in the city.
i appreciate you guys so much i live in melbourne so it's definitely noisier, but travelling up to places in rural victoria like echuca and stuff just humbles me can't even imagine the semi-desert and desert lands, so respect
Can we seriously put an end to the country/bush-v-city divide? It's a little boring. City people appreciate rural areas. We appreciate how important it is to have food security and agriculture. Fun fact for you though, just saying: agriculture contributes 3% of our GDP. Industry contributes 25%. But services, including financial services, contribute 65% of our GDP. And almost ALL activity in the financial services is in the cities. Your welcome! Also, you don't mind if we dig another big hole out over there somewhere do you? Thanks, we really appreciate it!!!
@Whack A … I was talking about how much I love where I live and everything it entails, I wasn’t making a thorough essay of the pros and cons of “rural vs city dwelling”, I would prefer to live rural, that doesn’t automatically mean I have some obscure competitive hatred for the city, I KNOW very well the benefits of the city, and the cons of living rural, it’s simply personal preference. You don’t need to write an economical spreadsheet on the superiority of cities and the shittiness of rural areas. It’s a personal opinion, not a competition. Chill out.
As an Aussie our current main concerns are housing (which is further exasperated by foreign and local investors), water security as you said, rising inflation and interest (making houses even more expensive) and debt. Last few administrations sucked up insane amounts of debt.
Housing is going to be tight for another 4-5 years. Huge immigration doesn’t help, especially for rental properties. Investors need to build more rentals (short and long term) as well. It’s less appealing for someone to lay down $$$$ for an uncertain future with successive governments changing tax laws on each other though. And for owner occupiers, it takes 1.5 years to build, and prices can’t be locked in due to inflation and scarcity of tradies. Plus the cost of land and build is likely to be higher than the banks valuation of the property. Such are the times we are living in. Zoning by local councils has a lot to answer for too. Careful to blame investors though.
@@yesiasked I didn’t say no immigration. I said the 4 years supply in 1 year when Australia was already 1-2 years behind building supply of houses makes houses more expensive to rent and buy
As a Brazilian myself living in Stray for 4 years now, there isn’t a single day that I am not amazed with how most things just work in here. I love the country, love the opportunities, love most Aussies. Just the food isn’t as good as ours but I can live without it 😂. And for my Tassie mates, your country🤭 is beautifully breathtaking.

True. If you want a really good Australian steak you need to go to Thailand or other Asian nations that import Aussie meat and seafood. Same goes with our prawns and lobsters. All the best stuff is sold off overseas.

Aussie here, we may not be in a "recession" as such but we're bloody well heading towards one. Our inflation went up the wazoo a few months ago, shit's bad. Also we did used to have a massive manufacturing industry but it's all gone now and we mostly just sell food and raw minerals
But we had a recession during the lockdowns in 2020. True, now we have record low unemployment, but that is partly because lockdowns made many older folk realise that retirement wasn't so bad...
A lot of people don’t realise this but the symbol of Australia should be a rabbit. There’s actually 4 of them for every kangaroo and 300 for every emu, and same goes with cane toads
@@concept5631 prolly some Russian propaganda to recruit more cannon fodder--er--I mean, soldiers. Sad what’s become of the “2nd strongest military in the world”😩
The reason we don't make steal is that our wages are too high and our currency too valuable to make it competitive in international markets. We used to have a large steel industry before we got rich, particularly in the city of Newcastle. But as wages went up we ended up just selling iron to China and buying back their steel. Hope this was helpful :)
No the reason we don’t manufacture steel here is because the bloody Kennett and Howard Governments sold off all our assets overseas and stopped us being self sufficient
To be honest Perth's isolation turned it into one of the nicest Australian Cities. There's a reason everyone in Adelaide has a moderate to high hatred of the east coast but not the west coast.
In a few short simple steps I have a proposal that will close the divide between east and west Australia Firstly, that we rename and merge WA,SA and the NT into a mega state and just call it the desert. Maybe they can figure out a better name but clearly they haven't in over 100 years. Reissue the police with mad max style uniforms and vehicles. Next all Australian children are to be sent away to grow up in the desert unsupervised, those that survive to 18 can return to the east.
They actually came extremely close in 2020 to having another recession in Australia due to the pandemic but it somehow didn’t happen even though the government thought it would most likely happen at the time!
Government gave everyone money. Kept ppl in their homes largely and kept them employed (largely), but the consequence of shutting down the economy and pumping money to everyone is inflation and an economy that needs time to correct itself
As an Australian, I like how we aren’t overly noticed and how some people think we don’t exist because I have no fear of any wars coming here 😂 Regardless, thanks for doing the proper research. I approve of this video (and it even taught me a couple things that I didn’t know about my own country).
Our first challenge is having enough people to work in specific industries. We have a worker shortage across all industries. Secondly we have almost no housing available, housing costs are unaffordable for someone working in retail or hospitality.

Negative gearing isn't about the value of a property, it allows you to treat an investment property like a business and deduct expenses (mostly mortgage interest) against your taxable personal income. Negative gearing is where the expenses of the investment property are greater than the income so you pay net lower tax. You can't do it for your residence though. You can also make your investment property part of your low-tax retirement fund. The right loves it because it enriches their base and supposedly increases housing supply, the left dislikes it because it is an expensive subsidy for investors and supposedly drives house price inflation. There's 15m taxpayers of which 2m have rental properties and 1m have negative gearing. Of the 1m, 9 in 10 have one investment property, the other 10% 2 or more. Those numbers, despite being a small minority of overall electors (16.4m), mean it is hard to campaign against the system because it immediately alienates 1 million voters, mostly right voters, but enough independent and left voters to make a difference. Labor lost an election in 2019 where it campaigned against this system but won this year's election after it dropped that policy. Although it was only one issue among many, of course.
Our cattle station is entirely powered by solar panels with lithium battery banks, can go multiple days without sunlight before the backup generator kicks in, even the remote water mills are solar powered pumps. The work vehicles are the only thing burning fuel now.
When it's more expensive for properties to run power lines than put in solar, the logical decision is solar. However, the way our energy economics are being destroyed, that economic decision, to put solar into your remote property, will prove even more beneficial, in the coming few years.
@@savagegfry problem with solar is they break down very quickly due to converting solar into heat then into power which degrades the hell out of components and the hotter s place gets the more the battery is more likely to swell or explode great for a time but not sustainable financially or resource wise
That won't stop government closing you down. According to the dill pickles at the WEF/UN all of those cattle burping and farting are destroying the planet don't you know. Farmers in the Netherlands tried to go green and use the best sustainable farming practices and latest technology too. All that led to was the government wanting to close 3000 + of their farms down. So all of your good work will go unrewarded once the government comes to close down your cattle station. Same thing is happening in NZ with their dairy industry.
@@LegendOfTheFLame393why not just get one of your really drunk mates and make them push a little wheel round and round to make energy, done jt before and it powered a piece of paper
Australia has it in spades in primary industries (mining + agriculture) and tertiary industries (services). Apart from water, it's Achilles' heel is secondary industries (manufacturing). Human capital is too expensive here due to strong labour laws and high minimum wage (can't exploit workers like you can in underdeveloped countries). Hence, it's cheaper to export the raw material overseas, process them into usable commodities, and import them back. If Australia wants to be self-sufficient, they need to build up its secondary industries (local manufacturing).
Which is only possible by establishing high levels of automation from the start. If we had cheaper energy and solved our water supply issues with more advanced desalination technology, we could make a ridiculous amount of money.
@@namanish450 i feel like the fact that most of the country by area is desert and semidesert you could just go with 100% solar based desalination and turn the brine into salt. Basically use concentrated solar to generate electricity and use that to power desalination plants and dump the brine is classic evaporation basins uses to harvest salt since the dawn of time. And with a large enough resevoir it should be reasonable to only run the desalination plants durring the day while the sun is shining. (I have a theory about making an "open cycle" con solar desalination plant but am unsure of its economic feasibility)
The big corporations just want more profit australia made many things in the 1960s 1970s but australian government signed the Lima declaration in 1973 ensuring are manufacturing got relocated to china and elsewhere in the third world
Fun fact: the Brits tried and failed set up a penal colony in the Cape Colony in South Africa in 1849. When the colony's government found out, they tried to ask the Westminister parliament to cancel the policy, but by then it was too late - a ship full of convicts - mostly Irish women and children - were already on its way. Along the way, the ship also picked up petty convicts who had previously been sent to Barbados. By the time the ship arrived in Table Bay in Cape Town, the mayor organized a riot to prevent the convicts from being offloaded. The riot lasted for a hundred days and the convicts who were forced to remain on board the ship suffered because of the siege. Eventually, the Governor Sir Harry Smith was able to convince the Secretary for the Colonies Henry Gray the 3rd to send the ship off to Van Diemen's Land instead.
@@greysonholtz because he is telling a story and that is what was said. Henry Grey would not have said send them to Australia. Quotes can break all rules of English as your typing what was said. Cause your right..no one says Van Diemen’s land anymore. Not even this guy👆
@@greysonholtz I'm aware. I used the name that was used at the time, rather than the name we use today. Otherwise I'd be anachronistic. You should note I also used the term 'Cape Colony' - rather than 'Western Cape'. Same reason it is inaccurate to say "In 1619, some of the first African slaves landed in the USA" because the USA didn't exist then. Rather, it is more accurate to say "In 1619, some of the first African slaves landed in Jameston in the Virginia Colony (which was later incorporated in the USA)".
As an Australian, I would like to add something, One of the biggest issues I see with my country is the lack of ambition, From what I see day to day, People have no ambition, And of course there are people like that across the world, But especially in Australia, There is a lack of desire.People live to watch the Reality Drama on a Friday, Or the Cricket on a Saturday, Not to do anything of any significant purpose, People live....Just to live.

It is not that we don't know, it is either we don't care and/or we may only have a mobile number and assume you are not in WA(if we dont check or know your address). In regards to call centres and whatnot some companies close their phone lines at 7 or 8pm to specifically cater for WA but probably an equal amount don't. Personally, I feel like WA would be better off having some of their financial services done in Perth instead of the East Coast. Like the big banks, insurance companies and superannuation companies should set up offices in Perth specifically for people in WA. If WA ever does want to succeed from the rest of Australia(being a bunch of rich bogans) then you would probably want to starting running your own financial services institutes rather than finding yourself cut off financially.

As an Aussie, I can say I never heard anyone say Dollarydoos. Also as far as economic history goes we didn't simply start digging, after the gold rush Australia was built on the sheeps back until recent history when mining took over. Negative gearing is more a way to treat an investment property as a business and claim the cost of a loss against any revenue you may receive. And water, although sparse in some areas, is abundant in the top end, we just need a way to capture and transfer it to the areas that need it. Apart from that pretty entertaining.
Well there is water down south the government just fucked up dirt and plant laws so the water pools up (and floods) or soaks into the ground/gets wasted
Fun fact. Perth is closer to south east Asia then the east coast of Australia. It’s easier (and cheaper) to go to New Zealand from Sydney. Also, a lot of what you have said about our culture Im pretty sure you got from the Simpsons

@Yoda on Fire Are you saying that for the memes? h0ser's theory on us losing our water for food exports is *absolutely absurd!* We have groundwater here!
The water situation isn't actually that bad. As a farmer myself it forces growers to become ultra efficient or go out of business. Even in dry times there can be enough. Probably could do with less water intensive crops like almonds but hey if that's what city consumers want and will pay for, we can grow it.
I'm glad that our cattle station in the Kimberely sits ontop of a massive underground basin. More water than we could ever need 25m below our feet. We only do cattle though so don't need much but apparently we could change to irrigation across the whole station and our neighbours and still have enough.

As for power, same thing on one side you have the "we can't use coal" and on the other you have the "we can't use renewables" camps. What we could do is use nuclear energy but it's currently banned and considering Australia has very strict standards for storage of nuclear material and plenty of inarable land to stick it in, it's really a no brainer for energy, we also have high reserves of uranium to us, but again the environmentalists will be up in arms.
The problem we have really as a country is poor leadership and we're too focused on mining rather than creating infrastructure or cities. All the infrastructure we create is usually toll roads and highways or stadiums for cities, not pipelines or dams for catchments in rural areas. Or we create massive suburbs on the fringes of the cities and just have massive city expansion or urban sprawl. Our manufacturing is all pretty much gone too, car companies like Ford, Holden, Toyota all gone and moved their manufacturing overseas. Steel plants used to be big industry here but wages, electricity prices and other regulations made it expensive to produce steel here, so expensive that companies just ship the iron to another country from Australia and make it there. Power is getting more expensive for environmental concerns/reasons making industry just more expensive in general compared to other countries where electricity is far cheaper. Anything we do create now also has big budget blow outs or never meet deadlines like the Snow Hydro 2.0 or Melbourne's highway systems. We're just not a serious country anymore. We had a golden age between 1980-2008.

As an Australian, I am glad to see Australia being talked about outside of Australia.
Why?

YEAH, 🤣surprised you can't hear them laughing their heads off at such a stupid headline. Anyone who has spent any time in our Military, KNOWS the joke this stament is, and the joke is on all Australians who believe it.

As an Australia, I am too. However I also admit we are the "Notice me Sempai" meme in country form.
As a rural Australian living in semi-desert land, I appreciate you for mentioning us and our land, we never get any mentions, it’s only the cities, but the people here are lovely and hard-working, the land is absolutely stunning, the animals are fascinating, the freedom is impeccable etc. I would hate to live in the city.

i appreciate you guys so much
i live in melbourne so it's definitely noisier, but travelling up to places in rural victoria like echuca and stuff just humbles me
can't even imagine the semi-desert and desert lands, so respect
Can we seriously put an end to the country/bush-v-city divide? It's a little boring. City people appreciate rural areas. We appreciate how important it is to have food security and agriculture. Fun fact for you though, just saying: agriculture contributes 3% of our GDP. Industry contributes 25%. But services, including financial services, contribute 65% of our GDP. And almost ALL activity in the financial services is in the cities. Your welcome! Also, you don't mind if we dig another big hole out over there somewhere do you? Thanks, we really appreciate it!!!
@Whack A … I was talking about how much I love where I live and everything it entails, I wasn’t making a thorough essay of the pros and cons of “rural vs city dwelling”, I would prefer to live rural, that doesn’t automatically mean I have some obscure competitive hatred for the city, I KNOW very well the benefits of the city, and the cons of living rural, it’s simply personal preference.
You don’t need to write an economical spreadsheet on the superiority of cities and the shittiness of rural areas. It’s a personal opinion, not a competition.
Chill out.
@@anneofgreengables9096 truth
As an Aussie our current main concerns are housing (which is further exasperated by foreign and local investors), water security as you said, rising inflation and interest (making houses even more expensive) and debt. Last few administrations sucked up insane amounts of debt.
Housing is going to be tight for another 4-5 years. Huge immigration doesn’t help, especially for rental properties. Investors need to build more rentals (short and long term) as well. It’s less appealing for someone to lay down $$$$ for an uncertain future with successive governments changing tax laws on each other though. And for owner occupiers, it takes 1.5 years to build, and prices can’t be locked in due to inflation and scarcity of tradies. Plus the cost of land and build is likely to be higher than the banks valuation of the property. Such are the times we are living in. Zoning by local councils has a lot to answer for too. Careful to blame investors though.

The reason we don't make steal is that our wages are too high and our currency too valuable to make it competitive in international markets. We used to have a large steel industry before we got rich, particularly in the city of Newcastle. But as wages went up we ended up just selling iron to China and buying back their steel. Hope this was helpful :)
No the reason we don’t manufacture steel here is because the bloody Kennett and Howard Governments sold off all our assets overseas and stopped us being self sufficient
We still make steel, although BlueScope is the only player there.

Negative gearing isn't about the value of a property, it allows you to treat an investment property like a business and deduct expenses (mostly mortgage interest) against your taxable personal income. Negative gearing is where the expenses of the investment property are greater than the income so you pay net lower tax. You can't do it for your residence though. You can also make your investment property part of your low-tax retirement fund.
The right loves it because it enriches their base and supposedly increases housing supply, the left dislikes it because it is an expensive subsidy for investors and supposedly drives house price inflation. There's 15m taxpayers of which 2m have rental properties and 1m have negative gearing. Of the 1m, 9 in 10 have one investment property, the other 10% 2 or more.
Those numbers, despite being a small minority of overall electors (16.4m), mean it is hard to campaign against the system because it immediately alienates 1 million voters, mostly right voters, but enough independent and left voters to make a difference. Labor lost an election in 2019 where it campaigned against this system but won this year's election after it dropped that policy. Although it was only one issue among many, of course.

Our cattle station is entirely powered by solar panels with lithium battery banks, can go multiple days without sunlight before the backup generator kicks in, even the remote water mills are solar powered pumps.
The work vehicles are the only thing burning fuel now.
When it's more expensive for properties to run power lines than put in solar, the logical decision is solar. However, the way our energy economics are being destroyed, that economic decision, to put solar into your remote property, will prove even more beneficial, in the coming few years.
@@savagegfry problem with solar is they break down very quickly due to converting solar into heat then into power which degrades the hell out of components and the hotter s place gets the more the battery is more likely to swell or explode great for a time but not sustainable financially or resource wise
That won't stop government closing you down. According to the dill pickles at the WEF/UN all of those cattle burping and farting are destroying the planet don't you know. Farmers in the Netherlands tried to go green and use the best sustainable farming practices and latest technology too. All that led to was the government wanting to close 3000 + of their farms down.

Well as an Aussie I'm very happy you finally discussed about our country.
Did you did some good research this is probably one of the best videos of someone explaining Australia cheers homie 😘
Australia has it in spades in primary industries (mining + agriculture) and tertiary industries (services). Apart from water, it's Achilles' heel is secondary industries (manufacturing). Human capital is too expensive here due to strong labour laws and high minimum wage (can't exploit workers like you can in underdeveloped countries). Hence, it's cheaper to export the raw material overseas, process them into usable commodities, and import them back. If Australia wants to be self-sufficient, they need to build up its secondary industries (local manufacturing).
Which is only possible by establishing high levels of automation from the start. If we had cheaper energy and solved our water supply issues with more advanced desalination technology, we could make a ridiculous amount of money.
@@namanish450 i feel like the fact that most of the country by area is desert and semidesert you could just go with 100% solar based desalination and turn the brine into salt. Basically use concentrated solar to generate electricity and use that to power desalination plants and dump the brine is classic evaporation basins uses to harvest salt since the dawn of time. And with a large enough resevoir it should be reasonable to only run the desalination plants durring the day while the sun is shining. (I have a theory about making an "open cycle" con solar desalination plant but am unsure of its economic feasibility)
The big corporations just want more profit australia made many things in the 1960s 1970s but australian government signed the Lima declaration in 1973 ensuring are manufacturing got relocated to china and elsewhere in the third world
Fun fact: the Brits tried and failed set up a penal colony in the Cape Colony in South Africa in 1849. When the colony's government found out, they tried to ask the Westminister parliament to cancel the policy, but by then it was too late - a ship full of convicts - mostly Irish women and children - were already on its way. Along the way, the ship also picked up petty convicts who had previously been sent to Barbados. By the time the ship arrived in Table Bay in Cape Town, the mayor organized a riot to prevent the convicts from being offloaded. The riot lasted for a hundred days and the convicts who were forced to remain on board the ship suffered because of the siege. Eventually, the Governor Sir Harry Smith was able to convince the Secretary for the Colonies Henry Gray the 3rd to send the ship off to Van Diemen's Land instead.

@@greysonholtz I'm aware. I used the name that was used at the time, rather than the name we use today. Otherwise I'd be anachronistic. You should note I also used the term 'Cape Colony' - rather than 'Western Cape'. Same reason it is inaccurate to say "In 1619, some of the first African slaves landed in the USA" because the USA didn't exist then. Rather, it is more accurate to say "In 1619, some of the first African slaves landed in Jameston in the Virginia Colony (which was later incorporated in the USA)".

In regards to call centres and whatnot some companies close their phone lines at 7 or 8pm to specifically cater for WA but probably an equal amount don't.
Personally, I feel like WA would be better off having some of their financial services done in Perth instead of the East Coast. Like the big banks, insurance companies and superannuation companies should set up offices in Perth specifically for people in WA.

As an Aussie, I can say I never heard anyone say Dollarydoos. Also as far as economic history goes we didn't simply start digging, after the gold rush Australia was built on the sheeps back until recent history when mining took over. Negative gearing is more a way to treat an investment property as a business and claim the cost of a loss against any revenue you may receive. And water, although sparse in some areas, is abundant in the top end, we just need a way to capture and transfer it to the areas that need it. Apart from that pretty entertaining.

@@zetaking2909 the Australian government, after witnessing the colossal fuckup, issued farmers a bounty for emu culling.
Farmers slaughtered 57,000 emus, the farmers made some $, and fence technology improved.
You = 🤡
Nobody calls a dog a doggo in Australia 😂
Yeah nah a lot of people call em doggos
@@doggowhisperer6844 😳
Pretty Good facts thank you for doing this video
Absolutely hilarious. Subbed
A friend had American visitors & took them to the outback, they saw the super giant windmills & asked are they for oil ? He replied no, it gets so hot out here we install them to keep the cows cool hahahahah. They loved their visit & went home with a new myth to spread across America hahahah.
This is legendary
Man releases a video about Australians when us Australians are asleep
I remember reading somewhere… the Brits used to sent their convicts to North America; which includes Canada before sending them to Australia. The total number sent to North America (which includes Canada) was much higher than those sent to the land downunder.
Yes a cool video about Australia I remember the cyclone that happened a few years ago
As an Australian, to me it seems to me that it's not like that we're going to rise up, but just that the other superpowers of the world are going to sink to our level
The US would have to go from 21.3 trillion to 1.5 trillion in gdp.. I don't think that's going to happen
@@Joker-no1uh The United States doesn't even have to lower its GDP for its economy to eventually suffer, just has to continue incurring debt at the same rate it is now and the majority of that GDP is going to become worthless. US current debt to GDP ratio is 120% Australia's is not even 60%. 🤣
@@niccijay4683 High debt isn't necessarily a bad thing, if it was the US wouldve collapsed into economic chaos decades ago, in the meantime my relatives who just moved there a year ago are living a neat life.
@@niccijay4683that’s not how economics work
@willevensen7130 ahh really? Thanks for the ever so useful lesson in economics professor, I can see you really know your stuff. 🤣🤣
I remember around 2000-2010, it didn’t rain a single drop in Sydney, you would get a fine for washing your car or watering your garden. It’s ok though, we’ve seen the biggest floods in 100 years this year.
One issue you missed with Australia is one of our biggest exports is education and we are facing a major teacher crisis which I expect will only get worse because both of the major political parties are only using bandaid fixes.
As an Australian, I feel bad for New Zealand. They get ignored a lot
Massively woke so stuff em.
I work in IT and I'm impressed how many Australians I meet, in this field.
Yeah we're almost a service economy
Remember the Emus
I work in Finance and live in Sydney. You would be suprised at how many people I meet that works in this field.
1 thing you missed in terms of our water is the abundant amount of underground springs in this country, growing up we had 6 or more in our suburb and 2-3 of em met in a big pool under our backyard, which was both cool as shit and shithouse as it sometimes rose up enough to soak our lawns from underneath, even formed its own little pond that we walled off
Loved the inclusion of the K-Roo Kanga Bangas, a great choice
1:43 Uhhhhh Australia Already has a really big water supply. Floods…
fun fact about 10:23. South Australia already operated on 100% renewable energy and a few months ago had to shut down some of the wind/solar farms due to too much energy on the grid. (a storm took out the main lines sending excess energy to other states)
I thought they used coal/ natural gas. I remember this being an issue whenever nuclear energy is discussed.
@@Vandelberger
They do, but they are heavily reliant on renewables, and they're a big power importer: it's why when the electrical interconnect between South Australia and Victoria was knocked out in a storm a while back, Adelaide (their capital) instantly went dark.
In fact, the way @icer1249 is phrasing it, it sounds like he's falling for some sort of political propaganda that spun it exactly the opposite of how it happened (South Australia has been governed by a leftist party for 16 of the last 20 years).
@@Vandelberger I thought so too I tried to mention this and people said "what are you talking about"
@@greenoftreeblackofblue6625 yeah, the video literally mentioned coal and they definitely do.
@@Vandelberger yes, 10 years ago. They are majority renewables now, mainly via offshore wind actually.
me in perth aus literally having a hot af chrismas while on the other side of the planet ,the US are suffering from worst winter storm in history is strange feeling
Perth 30 plus degrees for Christmas meanwhile down south in Albany its a pleasant 21. That is why Ill never move back to Perth.
This is how the hemispheres work
i love seeing non-Australians being so interested in Australia. like the amount of research you would of done for this is insane! good job, man.
As an Australian I can definitely say you summed us up well. Although our housing prices are rediculous at least we can generate a tonne of mining for our pals
I was actually thinking of it- like I watch Australian RUclipsrs and I was like “man Australia looks like they’d be in a good position rn” and I was right
We call ourselves the lucky land
What amazes me the most is the fact that Adelaide was acknowledged in a video even if he never said it out loud.
Didn't think the day would come when Australia would be noticed by the rest of the world for once
As an Australian, I found this video very funny. Well done.
Australian here: there's spiders in 3/4 corners of the ceiling in my room and they eat the mozzies. gaaaaarn fellas
These videos are always so funny H0ser and help me learn just a bit about other countries and their situations. Nice stuff.
Who edits your videos?! It's brilliant
As an Australian, it fucking sucks out here. 40° Celsius summers every year and damp winters.
As an Australian i always see spiders in my house aswell as kangaroos boxing other people Emus running 55 kilometers per hour. Man Australia is just a messed up continent lol
@NOTAGOODCREATOR I've never seen that but I'll trust
As an Australian,I can confirm that there are spiders living in my closet
Thanks to your video I am now imagining a young Australian girl with body issues getting cheered up again because she remembers that her country has coal and money
Good point.
Aussie here and we hold one third of the uranium market globally
Just got back from a surf so can confirm this video is spot on.
1:45 you fucking nailed our culture in one frame. well done, karnt.
Amazing video, but why is nobody talking about how SMOOTH that ad transition was
Im an Australian yeah. Our weather is literally out of this world, its like we get thunderstorms and sunny at the same time and i remember random dust devils appearing in schools.
Growing up here, I loved our freedom. Now I have travelled across the land I am IN love with it. Such rare beauty. I’ll never leave.
