Or being bitten by some of the most venemous snakes in the world?

Australia = the most gorgeous country in the world

Nah I surf all the time and I've never seen a shark at all when I've been out, I know they have a ton more in WA though :o.

What about giant saltwater crocs?

What about some of the deadliest snakes in the world? Any fear?

Was there something, Croatch?
Why don't you post a couple of pics of Nasser hell of a synthol-body and turn this into a normal Getbig thread?

the closest ive been to a shark was watching jaws on 100"

I live in Australia and it is common to be bitten by snakes every other day. We just suck the venom out and spit it into the face of any passing foreigner.
-
I'd be more worried about seeing Kai Green humping the stage, then jizzing all over it, than worry about sharks.
-
they have all those fucking jellyfish too, that you cant even see but they sting you and you die a horrible death. they are virtually invisible. how gay is that?
-
These claims of sharks and deadly creatures are exaggerated - you hardly ever see any. Jelly fish are only found in the northern tropical waters and snakes aren't that common in the city.

What about giant saltwater crocs? Are they like gators in Florida.......hangin out all over the place?

I live in Perth - but I expect Sydney doesn't have too many snakes in the suburbs either.

Saltwater crocs are mainly in the north. Along the south coast we don't really have any and yes they can be quite dangerous.

DAmn..Perth...Mad Isolated....

Perth is the most isolated capital city in the world. A whole lot of nothing between here and the cities in the east. but we do have internet access and running water.

I our primary industries generate the most money, things such as mining of raw materials, especially here in WA.

Is Australia pretty environmentally conscious as a whole? Or does it depend on state/territory? Over here, CA is pretty environmentally conscious, whereas Texas does its best to make sure we put out more greenhouse gases than anyone else.

There is a lot of hubbub about it in the media but we only just signed the kyoto protocol - I think the truth is things are slowly changing.

It's the only continent (apart from Antartica) that I haven't visited and though visiting wouldn't be an option I will consider it as a future place to live and work (only Sydney and Melbourne though)....
Having been a globetrotter for many years now I have grown to be very fond of the Aussie take on things...
If it only weren't so far away... :-\

You guys forgot to mention the drop bears.

Oh hells yeah, for real it's the drob bears that will get ya, those things are crazy :o

You guys forgot to mention the drop bears.
drop bears?
-
I'm in good ol Adelaide. Not worried about sharks, theres still plenty of whales on the beach too if you feel the need to harpoon one. :o
We seemed to have lots of tall skinny black dudes migrating here from Sudan or whereever they're from for a while but that seems to have slowed. Also lots of chinks are around these days. No longer see the signs on the bus stops thats says "Asians out" so they are becoming more accepted or we just realise we've been over run and theres no point.
-
drop bears?
Yeah they drop out of trees and rip you to pieces...

They're probably hardworking people though?

Yeah they are and they take all the shit jobs we dont want.

in Sydney.. not too many shark attacks here.. Lots in Sth Australia. ;)

drop bears?
Yeah they don't get much press overseas but they are the real threat over here, tear you a new ass mate :-\.

I've been stung by a bloody blue bottle at the beach. A form of jellyfish that sting like a bee but not deadly. One sting in 37 years. If you see them on the shore it is best to avoid a swim and have a perve, instead.
Foreigners are told about funnelweb spiders and there are some in and around Sydney here and there. However, I have never seen one except in a zoo. Ditto for snakes. I saw one on the road up in Byron Bay several years ago. I finally saw a small marsupial near Mount Wilson near Sydney. Otherwise, you seldom see any Kangaroos or Koalas unless you go to zoos or way outback.
Since you hear about sharks you do wonder about them when you go for a swim. I recall my first swim at Bondi in 1969. I got a bit concerned at every shadow I saw but they were just seaweed! If the sharks wanted to feed on humans no one would be safe. Most attacks happen when guys are spear fishing or riding boards and sharks mistake them for something else. No one has been taken by a shark at a patrolled beach in Sydney since the 1930s and in that instance the guy was spearfishing.
The beaches in Sydney are fabulous and there are at least 15 big beaches with fine sand. The beaches extend from the south way up the east coast to Cairns. Americans and Canadians are always impressed by what they find here. Too bad the locals cover their breasts now. About 15 years ago about 1/4 of women on some beaches went topless. Sydney has a couple of nudist beaches, too. So, if you like the water this is a great country to live in. There is no real winter in Sydney and there are flowers blooming every month of the year. The climate here is similar to northern Florida. Brisbane is on the same latitude as Miami. You can drive towards the equator north of Brisbane for another 1500 miles. This is a huge country.
No matter how long foreigners live here they aren't considered Aussies. I am an Australian citizen but don't think of myself as an Aussie. No matter, the Sheilas here love foreign accents. No wonder the local males hate Yanks, etc. Seems to be a lot of resentment for guys who spend a lot of money on women on days such as Valentine's Day. It is slowly catching on over here.
The Asians are impacting on Australia and I would bet that they will own the majority of businesses in the not too distant future. They shouldn't let Asians teach other Asians how to drive, though. That shows how the Aussies still view immigrants according to races and origins.
All in all it is a great place to live if you can afford it! It is expensive to travel to Europe or America and that is a bummer. Also the holidays here occur when it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
Sydney has about 4 million people and is one huge city. Traffic is heavy a lot of the time so it takes a lot of time to get around. The Gold Coast south of Brisbane is a rapidly growing area. And so it should be because it has beaches and mountains and subtropical vegetation and climate.

The gold coast and brisbane have taken off so has perth they say S.A is next with the mining boom.. theres a few things happening in Adelaide but we're still way behind only good thing is its easy to get around.
-
Brisbane's pretty safe, the city council employs me part-time to shoot all the dangerous animals that roam around. :D
The gold coast is pretty cool. Check out Tasmania too if you can, it's beautiful.
-
I'm more worried about the Bunyip. He's a mad one.
I reckon he could take one of those drop bears. The drop bears are usually too busy drinking or going to party's. Mainly drinking parties so people don't realise he's actually a talking bear and freak out or something.
-
Bunyip's :o crikey mate, don't get me started on those :-\!!!
-
Sharks? I just had them for lunch ;D

Swimming was a problem?

Funnel web spiders are scary as shit, I have Tarantulas at home, but regarding agressivness Funnel webs take the piss.
This spider will quit happily tag you just because you are close by.
I think you don't need to be an expert in Spiders to understand that if she/he stands up on his back legs and shows you the fangs to stand the fuck away... this is defcon 4 in spider language.

yea because Adidas slaughters them for their skin.

I'm guessing most aussies are like Steve Irwin and that crocodile dundee guy. They are natural woodsmen that live out in the wilderness for long periods of time and are one with nature.

yeah we all do, we live in tents and know how to hypnotise animals... YOU IDIOT
This country is the best in the world, wouldn't want to live anywhere else. best beaches in the world...

The Aussie humour is the reverse of what you find in America. The people here like to stir others by getting you to believe nonsense. The more gullible you are the more you are 'owned' by them. The Yanks tend to make jokes about the truth. Aussies make jokes about falsehoods. I have been here for 37 years and I still don't appreciate the humour here. I always feel there is a bit of resentment towards foreigners who aren't fair dinkum.
I will give you an example of Aussie humour. I knew this old guy from Sydney who was travelling in America with his wife. He always wore his Aussie leather hat like Dundee wore in that movie. Often people would ask him if he was Crocodile Dundee and he would say yes! The wife would go hide in the bathroom while her husband told some stories to the gullible Yanks. BTW Sydney is a modern city. You don't see anyone but backpackers wearing those 'Aussie' hats.
Another time this same old bloke was in Tennessee and got to ride in the engine on one of those steam trains. A local asked him how he managed to do that and he said he merely asked the engineer if he could. The local picked up that this guy had an accent so he asked him where he was from. The Aussie said he was from Arkansas and the Yank replied, "Gosh, I would never have picked that!" To the Aussie he was fooling another dumb Yank so he told this story back home to appreciative audiences. The Yank couldn't imagine why a foreigner would even claim to be a Yank. That was crazy and not funny at all.
BTW, if Yanks come to Australia they will never detect this animosity or whatever it is. That is another trick the Aussies have. The locals here knock all foreigners. If foreigners knock Australia they will be hated for it. If you are a celebrity and get off the plane in Sydney and are interviewed by the media just say you love Australia and have come here to buy some property. You will be welcome with open arms then. If you comment on the differences here you won't be considered cool.
I was invited to go up to Brisbane to give a seminar on judging contests. While I was there this guy asked me where I was from. I replied that I was from Canada. No, he wanted to know what state I was from so I said New South Wales. There is a lot of rivalry among the states here. You don't see much of that in America or Canada. BTW, NSW doesn't look anything like Wales! Anyone who visits here would know that but Captain Cook visited a few places like Botany Bay that didn't have many trees around so assumed the rest of the state looked like South Wales. There aren't any gum trees in Wales that I know of but there you are. Plus, Wales doesn't have even one beach to compare with any along the coast of Eastern Australia.
Would you believe that there is no national football code in Australia? They have two major games played here. One is Aussie rules and Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth specialize in this game which is mainly about kicking the ball to others. In Sydney and Brisbane they play a type of rugby called Rugby League. It involves a lot of tackling and the guys play it without wearing faceguards. No way the Yanks or Canadians would play tackle football like this. In recent years both codes have spread to the other states but when you are in Melbourne the ovals are built for Aussie Rules while in Sydney the ovals are built for Rugby League but also can be used for soccer. It seems everyone calls his sport 'football' but it differs depending on where you play it. Can you imagine my dismay way back in 1971 when kids asked me if we were playing League of Union re football. I taught PE in high schools in Sydney for 10 years and quickly learned a bit about sports like cricket and local football codes. I have always felt that Rugby League was a mugs game. Most of those players have broken noses. I mean, who in their right minds would play this rough-house sport? I must say the kids I taught all wanted to play with tackling and not touch football. The Canadian kids I taught wouldn't play tackle football in PE. Aussies call American Football 'Gridiron' but few understand the game down here. They broadcast the Super Bowl every year live but need Yanks to interpret the game for them. On the other hand, few Yanks comprehend what cricket is all about.
Which leads to a real story about Sergio Oliva when he first came to Australia to do a show way back in the seventies. I was at Sydney airport and they had a press conference for him. You should have seen how huge Sergio looked in a suit. Everyone noticed him and thought he must be someone important. Well, they ushered Sergio into a room and then reporters started asking him some questions. First of all, Sergio had no idea how big Australia was and he had to fly another hour to go to Brisbane. Some Asian reporter asked Sergio how much he paid for his custom made suit. He said he paid about five hundred. The reporter asked if those 500 were dollars and Sergio said, "Yeah, we deal in dollars." I found that a very funny answer. Imagine how dumb that reporter was to ask a Yank if they used dollars. Heck, didn't they invent dollars?

bah you aussies are a bunch of pansies and yr rugby team sucks ;D

Australia's reputation of being a tough country is so exaggerated.
Sure, we get a few snake/spider/dingo/shark attacks from time to time BUT.. You US people have crazies randomly gunning down tens of people in public places, totally beating any body count our dangerous animals can muster.
Plus you all own guns.
You guys win!

The gold coast and brisbane have taken off so has perth they say S.A is next with the mining boom.. theres a few things happening in Adelaide but we're still way behind only good thing is its easy to get around.
Outside of Adelaide, there are some excellent green hills. The actual city is a bit dull.

Hey, Rocket, I thought Brisbane was a bit like Sleepy Hollow. Well, Noosa surely is that. Great place to live, though, if you are married.

It probably is.
I'd rather not live in a city if I could, I find that defining a city as "worth visiting" is largely a question of what surrounds it, rather than the city itself. Brisbane - for that purpose is excellent.
Noosa is definitely quiet but I think thats probably a good thing, considering it backs onto a national park.
-
I really like Mount Tamborine in the hinterland of Surfers Paradise. Nice village atmosphere at North Mt Tamborine and the place is sub-tropical. Love those avocado trees and exotic flowers and palms that are everywhere.

I use to live off of Cape Bay and it is a great place to live and surf. I live on the west coast of Florida now and i believe that Florida has the most shark Attacks. I have dived with the White shark and they are very beautiful but i never seen any while i surfed.
-
I came to Australia about 5 months ago and although i've been to some remote places i'm still alive.
In fact i haven't seen a shark or a saltie yet and I wouldn't worry about them at all..
Jellyfish is a different thing though , during jellyfish season (may - nov ) i'd never go swimming at the north-east coast.
Just a great beautiful country. But juice is hard to get here , that sucks. I'm clean for 5 months now :(

Jellyfish is a different thing though , during jellyfish season (may - nov ) i'd never go swimming at the north-east coast.
Just a great beautiful country. But juice is hard to get here , that sucks. I'm clean for 5 months now :(
Congratulations man!

where are ya in brisbane? sydney? gear is easy to find bro
I'm in Brisbane..
I haven't seen many big guys around here. Maybe 3-4 guys that were definetely juicing but i didn't want to ask em straight ahead for roids..
I used to workout at fitnessfirst , now i found a great oldschool hardcore gym (Thor's Gym) with dirty old dumbbells up to 90kg etc.
Hopefully i'll get some contacts there.

Thors Gym would probably the place to find it. I would prefer to work out there but the rest of my group don't want to pay the costs to do so (half us don't even have gym memberships).

But Thor's Gym seems to be one of the cheaper gyms around here .. i paid 100 bucks per month + 60 dollar join fee + bla bla bla for Fitness First.
Casual visit 18 dollars ! Atm i'm paying the 10 dollars for casual visits @ thors gym.. had no time in the past weeks to workout more than twice a week anyway. Whereabouts in brisbane do you live and where do u workout ?

Haha, I'm wayyy too out of shape and fugly to reveal that information :)
There are cheaper gyms than thors but I agree, its pretty cheap there (about 500 a year I think)
