Come to Australia!

[Ian Allomes]

I got a laugh out of this one, it appeared on a camper forum here in OZ.
Just to correct something for those in the know of Aussie snakes, the picture that appears a couple of times as the Taipan is actually a Death Adder. Nasty, just the same.

Hope it works here.

That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right.

I never saw any of them on my visit, except in the zoo and the aquarium. I will definitely be going back some day. :thumbup:

Ok....I fine with everything but the spiders...snakes, gators, boars, roos, hell...brain eating zombies are fine, but big ass hairy 8 legged freaking need to die Spiders....Nope! Can't stand em. See em....kill em! That's my motto.:thumbup:

Thanks for the vid bro....I'd love to make it out there someday but I doubt I could ever afford it. Hell the plane fare alone would break me!

The video forgot the scariest animal in all of Australia. When these guys come onto shore, people run for their lives....

I have been to AUS about 8-10 times, and it is a great place to visit. Sydney and Melbourne are really nice cities, but you got to get out of the cities to see the real country.

 

[Helle]

Good stuff Ian.

I've always wanted to go to OZ, but the more I see of what can kill you or leave you crippled the more I appreciate our nice cool February days here in Minnesota.

 

[drift draft]

I can't wait to get there.
They left out Sting Rays.

 

[JurT]

Great song!

 

[huj900]

nearly got bit by a redback the other day - squashed it but - it was on the mattress i was lying on. They rarely kill ppl when they bite though? mainly babies n kids? or old ppl?

 

[oldrifleman]

I feel left out. I never saw anything really nasty while I was there. I spent three weeks in and between Melbourne and Adalaid. The coast south of Melbourne is spectacular.

 

[Ian Allomes]

It’s not too bad here.
Red Backs have to be provoked to bite you, Funnel Webs are far and few between and most snake bite deaths here have been caused when someone’s tried to kill them.

We do take a lot of care though when theses two terrors come for a visit. Especially if there down the bottom paddock near the creek. The smaller one is the worst, he will pick anything up that’s in front of him.
