  1. The picture of Canberra was actually Sydney 🤣 also I’d imagine that the size thing is taking Alaska in to account. I would of thought he would of said the opera house for the tourist attraction, most of these videos leave out the bridge, which is more impressive to me to be honest 👍🏻

  2. The Agro adults only video is hilarious, it’s more outtakes to be honest and wasn’t aired 🤣

  3. When it comes to the change, you get charged to the closest 5c so it balances out. If a product is $9.99 you pay $10 but if it’s $9.92 you pay $9.90. It’s all good 👍🏻

  4. I was born here in Australia but moved to Scotland when I was 13. I lived there for 26 years and have been back in Australia nearly 4.5 years. So with me being away so long, I still get excited when I see or do things or old things like Roos. When driving towards the city (Sydney) and seen the skyline I actually got emotional cause i was home again.

  5. That’s a weird looking sausage roll, but damn it looks good 👍🏻

  6. While living in the UK I lost what it meant to commemorate ANZAC day, and since my return I’ve once again discovered the importance. My first Anzac Day back in 2018 was a very emotional one for me as the memories I had came back. And since have became mates with a couple of guys that have served in Australian armed forces and it has taken on a whole new meaning. We Shall Remember Them Lest We Forget 🇦🇺

  7. These vids have been doing the rounds for years! Absolutely brilliant. Yeah it’s a kiwi accent for sure🤣🤣

  8. Gotta love me a chicken Parma (not parmi) hahaha and a Tim tam slam is like an explosion of chocolaty goodness in your mouth. Biting of opposite corners and using it like a straw with a tea or coffee… coffee for me. Once you get the coffee through it, Put the whole lot in your mouth and it just melts! Very dangerous and you can go through a full packet pretty quickly. Which is normally the case with Tim tams, but slamming makes it almost inevitable hahahah

  9. Thanks for your comments Ian. South east Queensland copped it pretty bad in the last week and the storm that done that moved down the coast to Sydney. North west Sydney out where I am, has flooded again and thankfully not as bad as last year at the moment. The dam is still overflowing and there is still water to come off the blue mountains into the Nepean/hawksbury rivers system but the rain has eased. The company I work for has had a static road closure since last years floods due to half a road being washed away. I was there on yesterday and we got the call to pack up and leave incase we got trapped. Unfortunately the road got worse before the river even got to it because of the sheer amount of rain. It still hadn’t been repaired from last year and is now worse. 500,000 metro Sydney Siders were issued with evacuation order but have mostly been rescinded. Again thankfully not as bad as was expected but still a lot of flooding. Hopefully QLD get a breather to get a clean up started at least.

  10. Glad you posted this, I was pretty sure a Lupo didn’t have a 3L engine 😂
    38
  11. The drunk in a pub is enforced quite a bit, you have to pretty well gone but they can through out even if you only had a couple 😳 and the fisheries one I imagine would be pretty accurate too lol
    36
  12. Some of them a bit on the harsh side to the states. But still good to see you laugh and take it in your stride. 😉🤣
    34
  13. Gotta say I had no idea Germany had so many historic looking places left and certainly didn’t realise it was such a beautiful place all round. Considering it was bombed to shit just 80 years ago and looks like it does now. Quite amazing 👏😊
    34
  14. Hahah you can’t go wrong with a slam 😊👍🏻 probably a good thing you kept the last one for a slam, I’ve knocked off a half packet with one coffee 🤣🤣🤣
    32
  15. Gotta give Clarkson his due. He may be a bumbling Bafoon most of the time but he does have the utmost respect to anything and anyone military.
    30
  16. Hahaha Turkish delight is the vegimite of the chocolate world, you like them or hate them 🤣🤣 I like them 👍🏻 but I’m not a fan of crunchie or violet crumble, different strokes I guess 😊
    29
  17. It was a Scottish guy that found out penicillin fights bacteria but it was an Aussie that purified it to be more widely used 👍🏻
    28
  18. I went to the states back in 1996. Loved it! It was Florida so obviously a bit different to the rest of the country 😉🤣. American politicians are the main problems with America, the place and most of the people are great 👍🏻 don’t get me wrong I’m not giving up Australia any time ever but the US for a holiday again would be nice 👍🏻
    27
  19. Merry Christmas to you Ian Daniella, Emma Andrew and Sydney . I cant believe how big Sydney has gotten 😮 all the best mate and happy new year 🎉
    24
  20. Fantastic mate what a nice family you have 👍🏻 no surprises a few things didn’t last, wouldn’t last long in my house either and I’m the one in it 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣

  21. The sport was invented really to give cricket players something to do in the in winter, that’s why the fields are so big. Usually cricket ovals. You might have trouble streaming a game without copyright issues. You can do a live stream but can’t show what your watching.
    22
  22. What an awesome parcel from Peter, congrats mate and 👏👏👏Peter
    22
  23. The 2 trucks that went by were your standard B-double configuration. And the Toyota van is a Hi-ace. Very very popular here and in Asia. Millions on the roads here in Australia. 👍🏻
    21
  24. 2 cars I always wanted during the 90s and early 2000s was Lancia delta Intergrale and the Ford Escort cosworth with the whale tail wing 😊 and to be honest with a lotto win, I’d have a cosworth in my garage for sure 😉🤣
    16
  25. Definitely getting demonetised mate, you missed the beep on and F and C 😳 great video though, I literally laughed out loud with “The Remote part of the outback “ 😂😂
    15
  26. A lot of the 80s cars are all a mix of Vauxhall , Holden and opel 👍🏻
    15
  27. This is the best American info video on Australia out there. The vast majority was pretty accurate and it was funny too. Also thank you pronouncing emu properly Ian. Your a bloody legend 👏 😂
    15
  28. Definitely skill Ian. Seen this quite a bit with smaller excavators but not on what looks like a 36 tonner lol 👏👏👏
    14
  29. Skoda used to be a joke but since Volkswagen took over they have been nice cars. The Octavia is Used as mini cabs in the UK so they are bullet proof 👍🏻
    14
  30. Carl is hilarious 👏 been around a while and still touring, or will be when lockdown finishes 😳🤣
    12
  31. The night time one you didn’t know, I think was a Mitsubishi Pajero sport. The NSW RFS just took delivery of their Chinook (double rotars)helicopter last week and based just down the road from me at Richmond airforce base. And that chopper shown was a Huey 😊
    11
  32. This is a great video mate 👍🏻 your such an awesome family and Pedro is such a cool dude 🤣👍🏻 hopefully you all can make it over here sooner than later 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
    11
  33. I think you should definitely use a different view, at least until you learn the tracks better. But you are doing good for a first timer for sure. I think probably better than I would be 😂
    9
  34. Another great collection of boxes well done 👏😊
    9
  35. We have a couple good tv shows, outback truckers and mega truckers. Mega truckers is more the heavy haulage aspect. Both good shows 👍🏻
    9
  36. Hey Ian have you checked out the Jenson Button F1 lap of Bathurst before? Just seen an on board lap there 👍🏻
    9
  37. The caramel brownie Tim tams are dangerous for me lol you have to try them doing a slam. They are next level 😉😊
    9
  38. He’s a crazy S.O.B props for doing it but I can’t imagine you would even get many aussies doing that. A lot of us are crazy but not stupid 🤣🤣🤣🤣 also I bet he was on the shitter for a couple hours after that! 🤣🤣🤣
    9
  39. Loads of them in Australia, I remember the first on appearing when I was a kid 30+ years ago. But unfortunately some people still don’t know how to use them here. It’s a give way/yield not a stop sign but people stop when cars are on the other side of the roundabout 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣 even when I was in Scotland we had a massive one in the town and they decided to put traffic lights on it, it took a little while for most people to get used to it, still a few idiots but there will always be those 🤣🤣
    8
  40. Looks like he is out in the middle of nowhere, hardly gonna be busy street 🤦‍♂️ I hear them all the time near me, which is a bit more dickish as it’s a built up area but doesn’t need to be killed for it! Lol
    8
  41. The violet crumble and the crunchie are similar, comparison would be good to do mate. Enjoy the timtams mate, got enough there to keep you all going for a while lol
    8
  42. Good on ya champ 👏👏 glad you done it the right way, although getting it a on while the toast is warm is the key. Glad you didn’t just try it on a spoon or something outrageously stupid like that 🤣🤣. I’m sure can say on this video alone your at an an honorary Aussie let alone all your other videos 👍🏻😊
    8
  43. My brother went for an interview with that company a while back. The things he was allowed to see while there was mind blowing. I can only imagine what they had going on that he wasn’t allowed to see lol
    8
  44. They are built for sure! Big ones standing upright balancing on their tales can be 7 feet tall and I would guess between 200-300lbs 😳 they are usually pretty chill with people and run away but now and then they have attacked and can do some serious damage. You can see the claws they have!
    7
  45. Quality mail time indeed 👍🏻 I do love a cherry ripe myself and can’t go wrong with a lamington 🤤
    7
  46. That’s pretty awesome and I have to admit, I’d never heard of it 😳 I do remember the one from close encounters though lol and the New Mexico place looks awesome too 👍🏻 the blue mountains in NSW is an interesting place to check out. The 3 sisters rock formations is cool but the good thing about the blue mountains is there are lookouts everywhere. On both side of the great western highway that crosses the mountains. Good for your google earth 😉
    7
  47. Happy thanksgiving to you and your whole family Ian. Hope you have a great day and weekend.
    7
  48. You were right with your Bunnings/Home Depot comparison 👍🏻 he done a good video for traffic controllers a little while back, being a TC myself, I found it hilarious 😆
    7
  49. Totally looking forward to Bathurst this year, last weekend was great at Sydney Motorsport park. The Jenson video is cool and I do like F1 but yeah na not at Bathurst 😳
    6
  50. We had an earthquake here in the blue mountains a couple weeks ago. Only a 3.9 I think I was. I felt it a little bit here in Penrith at the foot of the mountains and my windows shook a bit but that’s all 😳
    6
  51. The iveco is the same crew cab as my supervisor has at work. Although the back is different as we have it set up for traffic control. That first Toyota is badged as Toyota Prado here in Australia, which as of last year is now badged as a Land Cruiser Prado. Just a bit smaller than a normal cruiser.
    5
  52. The comedian you have reacted to on your channel Isaac butterfield , his dad played for the Newcastle Knights. Rugby league team NRL 👍🏻
    5
  53. Standing ovation from Ford and Holden fans! 👏👏👏 what a lap. 👍🏻
    5
  54. There are about 3 standard plates now in NSW but you can specialty places too. A lot of people have their NRL team on their plates now and that’s about $300 to get those. I have the standard the yellow with black writing. But I think I’ll get my Penrith Panthers plate at tax time 😉 gotta say I like the black NM plate
    5
  55. You were right in the timing, gotta love the donate to Australia at the end. Certainly been a messed up 18 months. Fires, floods, more floods, earthquake and a tornado 😳
    5
  56. I recommend the movie RUSH it’s pretty cool. It’s about Nikki lauder and James hunt and directed by Ron Howard.
    5
  57. That man cave is brilliant! So many different things, very eclectic taste lol
    5
  58. Lovin the fact the last 2 videos you have said straya 🤣🤣🤣 sydney motorsports park is just about 30 mins up the road from me, went to see the V8 Supercars there a couple years ago, it was awesome, on a Friday you can get to walk behind the pitts so drivers are just walking around, you can get up close to the cars and team trucks too , it’s a great day. Also went there 2 summers ago for the drag racing as they had too fuel there that time. My first experience with the drag strip it was awesome 👏. Supposed to be going to the V8s again this year but not sure with all the rona around right now, we are in lockdown again in Sydney 😩
    5
  59. That outdoor courtyard was giving me total recall vibes lol but awesome all the same 👍🏻
    5
  60. Congrats mate that’s a hella milestone 🎉👏👏👏

  61. I’ve only been inside once when I was on a school trip back in the early 80s and it was cool. Been outside a few more times and it is iconic for sure. I would love to say it’s part of my favourite skyline in the world but compared to the buildings around it and even the bridge, it’s quite short. When I move back here/home from the UK in 2017 after 26 years away, seeing the skyline for the first time while I was heading to work nearly brought a tear to my eye. The whole harbour is just spectacular to see but yeah the opera house and the bridge really are a site to behold. When you get out here you should do a meet up there. That would be awesome 👍🏻
    4
  62. I’ve seen this about 20 times now, and I catch something new every time I watch it lol it’s awesome 👏
    4
  63. Woohoo Tim tams 😊 that’s cool you got sent some money too. You should check out the “how Australian currency changed the world” video on YouTube, it talks about all the security features and the like 👍🏻
    4
  64. If the music wasn’t there it’s still cool to see. Sadly that kind of music, opera and what passes for RnB these day just isn’t my thang. Each to their own though 👍🏻
    4
  65. The Mercedes Ute is based on a Nissan Navara . With an extra $15,000 put on the price tag 🤣🤣
    4
  66. Scotties dash cams Australia/New Zealand is another YouTuber that pretty good. He posts usually 1 20min video a week plus maybe a short 1-2min. And Australia definitely not the place to be if your offended by swearing lol the C word can be a term of endearment here 🤣🤣
    4
  67. I’m more and NRL fan, Penrith Panthers all my life but I do follow the Richmond tigers 🐯 too in the AFL 👍🏻
    4
  68. I totally misjudged my guess earlier 🤣🤣🤣 but my bad maths got me on the weight, I was thinking about 20kg but didn’t add right hahah, I had the coffee ones last weekend, beautiful 😊 the corners are the way to go mate, and you just slam it as soon as the liquid gets to your mouth lol lol 😂
    4
  69. That was an interesting video, a few of them brands I had no idea were German.
    4
  70. Yeah mate that was Mariah. Although her fiancé was named James Packer not Parker lol his dad was Kerry packer. Rupert murdocks business partner. Also I say fiancé as I thought they broke up before the wedding . 🤷🏼‍♂️
    4
  71. The uk have the same idea with servos being attached to supermarkets. But the servos here in straya have the convenience stores now. Something else weird with this video is, I was talking to someone yesterday about how servos make more money from the likes of a sandwich than they do on fuel lol
    4
  72. Try your google street view Ian, might be able to get the views from that. Not sure if it’s available though.
    4
  73. Sick of the rain is an understatement lol not sure about other places but Sydney has had its highest ever (recorded) annual rainfall already this year at over 2100mm .
    4
  74. Hey Ian when it comes to the Maggie’s , they have even have to make contact to freak me out, the noise of the wings is bad enough 😳🤣
    4
  75. Meant to be a wet race for the start of the season on Saturday. Some of them new paint jobs might get a bit scuffed up 🤣🤣
    4
  76. I think that was an episode of top gear. Richard Hammond one of the presenters got to drive it. Really not easy lol 😂
    4
  77. What a legend 🤣👏👏👏
    4
  78. Great video and lots of cool things too 👍🏻
    4
  79. That picture you opened to, I have a framed print. It’s awesome unit unfortunately it’s still in Scotland with a lot of my things.
    3
  80. Fantastic Ian that’s such a cool thing to do mate 👏 and cool to see a bit more of your local area. Gotta say though old mate in the post office was hilarious, no idea who you were till you told him your box number 🤣🤣 guess that’s how he remembers people 🤣
    3
  81. Don’t mind rain now and then, after living in Scotland for so long I was happy to not see it for a while but I do like it too now. Although today we had a (weather report said shower or 2) absolute downpour and got about 10 mm in 15 mins while I was working outside. Today I hated the damn rain, as I was soaked to the bone 😳.
    3
  82. Pretty sure they’re Wass guy testing one of those things today when I was working. I was on the banks of The Hawksbury river today and this little boat was FLYING up and down for about 15 mins. Barely touching the water and was soooo fast lol 👍🏻
    3
  83. Congratulations to you both 🎉 and Sydney is an awesome name. And look like she is definitely taking after mumma with that head of hair lol 👏
    3
  84. I’m sure the video you done last week with the driving instructor, I think he has a video explaining and driving though in multiple directions
    3
  85. Here’s one for you Ian, you can 30 earths between the earth and the moon. There a good video you can check out if you haven’t already, the universe is way bigger than you think. I don’t remember you doing it before.
    3
  86. I e seen a couple of his videos lately, think he does that quite a bit at car meets 👍🏻
    3
  87. Not sure I’d have a white Sox plate, maybe a Red Sox plate insead 😉🤣 gonna get my Penrith Panthers NRL plate when I get my rego next year. Not cheap, looking at $300+ the cost of rego at $400 😳
    3
  88. They need another top level for when you do a Tim tam slam 🤣🤣 can really complain about the rest as it’s your tier lol I agree maybe 70% lol
    3
  89. After 20 years working in kitchens, it scares me every time I see someone using a knife that size 😳🤣 but after I got over that, gotta say damn they look tasty 😋
    3
  90. What an awesome mail time , a lot of new things in there for you guys to check out 😊
    3
  91. I just looked it up and £1000 in todays money is £130,000 ($240,000 AUD) ($175,000US) not a lot for a movie by todays standards but still a shit load of money in general and for the FIRST movie that’s a lot! 👍🏻
    3
  92. Most tradies here in Australia use Makita or Milwaukee . But you see the odd guy with money buys Dewalt lol
    3
  93. I’m a bit of a photographer and any car shows that come around near me will always some awesome toranas or 5000s for me to get some good shots 👍🏻
    3
  94. Snap on the Lockheed Martin thing, as soon as he said Lockheed the Blackbird was the first thing that came to my mind 🤣👍🏻
    2
  95. Looking good mate 👍🏻👏
    2
  96. Cheers for this video Ian, great lunch break video for me 👍🏻😊
    2
  97. The only car that has gone sun 2 mins I believe is Jenson Buttons F1 McLaren lol 👍🏻
    2
  98. Would love to have gone to good wood when I live in the UK. Cars and motorcycles galore 😊 and not only have we got you saying Straya but you pronounced Jaguar right too 😉🤣👏👏👏
    2
  99. I got right in to this stuff when I started riding, there is a guy called Christian pfeiffer, he was world champion a few times. That car is a Smart coupe. Smart is owned by Mercedes. And that is a great show lol 👏👍🏻
    2
  100. We get a lot of new ones here in Australia now, can’t say I’ve seen any older ones. Me and some mate had a Skoda 130GL that we bought to do up and sell. Not the greatest car ever built but we liked it lol and that was when I lived in Scotland.
    2
  101. Love the view at the end of the pit straight. Come up the hill all you see is track and ocean in the background. Very technical track be at its an anticlockwise track with a small straight. Spend most of your time going round a bend lol
    2
  102. We have one of those big red choppers in NSW. It’s a huge Russian chopper which I can remember the type right now, but the one we have here is called Elvis 🤣🤣 we also have a couple passenger Jets converted to water tankers at the local RAAF (royal Australian Air Force ) base in Richmond.
    2
  103. If you change the venomous animals to deadly animals, I’m sure the US would just up the list lol
    2
  104. When I was in the UK I never shopped at tesco, occasionally sainsburys but most of the time morrisons. Also I would of thought the north east of the US would have a higher cost of living than say somewhere in the south.
    2
  105. Happy birthday buddy hope your having a great day mate 🎉🎂🎁👍🏻. Hopefully you can make it over for Bathurst next year. A mate of mine just got me a ticket for Supercars at Sydney Motorsport park in a couple of weeks. Can’t wait 😊
    2
  106. You done good mate 👍🏻 the animals I would have trouble remembering them all too. More quizzes would be cool mate. We can see and judge (in a lighthearted banter kind a way) your progression to near full Aussie 😉🤣
    2
  107. Dude I lived in Scotland for 26 years and I can say yes… Scotland doesn’t get that hot. Where I am now in Penrith, we had just below 49 a couple summers ago. And we were having multiple days in a row in the mid to high 40s. Thankfully La Niña is so far not killing us too much here 😳
    2
  108. The first track was the old top gear track. And the chick is Jodie Kidd ex supermodel and absolute gear head 😊 and yeah she I’ve 6 feet tall lol
    2
  109. Brilliant 🤣 you should check the XXXX ads from the 80s and early 90s 👍🏻
    2
  110. Believe it not Ian , those huntsman spiders are quite small lol the rainbow lorikeets are cool I feed them from my balcony all the time. Now and then on or 2 stop by and see if there’s any food lol most I’ve had is 17 on my balcony eating 😊
    2
  111. Seems to be the only thing Americans agree is the same between states is… the DMV is shockingly bad 😳🤣
    1
  112. I usually just use a simple rough estimate to go from Celsius to Fahrenheit. If you double the cel and add 30 that’s an approximate. Or minus 30 then half. Also there is is only 200km 124miles difference in the width and length of Australia 👍🏻
    1
  113. Fantastic guys, gotta say I do like a mint slice, but TimTams will always win for the SLAM factor lol 😂
    1
  114. Me and some mates used to make our own slingshots back in the late 80s early 90s. Find a decent Y branch and some thick rubber bands, and everyone had an old inner tube from a bmx around 😊good fun but I guess the fun police have struck again , not that kids these days would be outside having fun 😳
    1
  115. Brisbin lol and cans not cairns. Also cairns is the north east tip not north west lol only about 2,500 miles off 🤣🤣
    1
  116. You Slovakia video yesterday sounded like they had a similar crossing sound to out Aussie ones 👍🏻
    1
  117. The sports mondeo was ST220. It was a bit of a beast, not quite as good as the sierra or escort cosworths but still good 👍🏻
    1
  118. That does awesome and the new one sounds dirty (in a good way 😉🤣)
    1
  119. Population size Australia is close to Florida lol. Personally I think you guys spend a bit too much on military and we don’t spend enough lol America is like more than the next 10 countries combine. Our special forces are a top 5 fighting force, I’ll take quality over quantity any day of the week 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻 also are you in Vegas??
    1
  120.  @superstorby  ah yeah forgot about that place too! Yeah I think your right 👍🏻
    1
  121. I’ve really only lived in places with easy names. Narre Warren is probably the strangest lol that was beside Dandenong. But Penrith now and emu plains is close by lol
    1
  122. Awesome mate 👍🏻 your becoming more Aussie with every video 🤣👏
    1
  123. Love this! 🤣🤣 doesn’t appear very often but i watch it every time and share it always
    1
  124. What an awesome looking holiday mate. Looks like a great place for some photography. New Mexico has now been added to the list 👍🏻
    1
  125. Glad you got to the NRL , pity most of it is shit quality. This weekend is the last round of the regular season. Finals/playoffs start next week. NRL is rugby league, and you also have rugby union. There is a video that sort of explains the difference, but IMO it’s slightly biased to the union side lol Russel Crow owns a team here called the South Sydney Rabbitohs. Good team but not my team. I’m a Penrith Panthers fan myself. The game has gotten a bit softer over the last few years, they stopped the biff (proper fights) a while back and since then it’s not as good lol but this year mid season they have totally gone overboard with some rules about high tackles, which is fair enough but your hand can brush past someone’s face and you can put on report or sent off now. I like both AFL and NRL. My afl team were shit this year and my NRL team will go in the finals in 2nd place 😊
    1
  126. Few of them makers I didn’t know either, and I live here in Australia 🤣 Skoda used to be a joke about 10-15 years ago but Audi bought them and started building them so they are basically Audis now at slightly cheaper price point. The superb is a nice car loads of legroom on the back and just nice all round. They use Skodas for taxis/mini cabs in the UK , usually the Octavia. If taxi drivers use them that should tell you they are pretty bullet proof 👍🏻
    1
  127. The bike is a cub (Honda) postie bikes still look like that lol but I believe they have now stopped production 😢
    1
  128. Would be cool to see a comparison of how much quicker you are on a track you know between a controller and wheel. I’ve heard it can be as much as a couple seconds.
    1
  129. Geez o mate well done 👍🏻 it’s blatantly clear you didn’t like that video one bit. Even before you started it it was clear you were uncomfortable 😳
    1
  130. The construction site I’m currently working will be putting in temporary traffic lights over the Xmas shutdown, and every local resident I’ve spoke to has said they are gonna ignore them 🤣🤣 red light will definitely be optional 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣
    1
  131. I passed my driving test first time. I will say it was the most nervous I’ve ever been in my life. The motorcycle test in the UK is slit in to 2 parts and I failed the first part once (didn’t go fast enough through a speed trap) but passed it second time the passed the next part first . The first section is slow control in a compound and second is out on the road. I was less nervous for those ones as I knew I was a good rider.
    1
  132. Our UV this week has just gone up to 7. By the end of spring I’m expecting 10-11 and summer is gonna be a scorcher this year so 15 won’t be unexpected 🥵
    1
  133. That last one is recent. Only on I’ve seen since I’ve only been back since 2017 😳 lol
