4:59 Imagine calling in to work like "Yeah sorry, boss. Neil decided to stop by." And your boss is just like "understandable, have a nice day"

I live in Australia, I once got lost on a mountain.... the damn lyrebird nearly led me to my death several times cause the bastrads imitated ambulance Sirens and rescue calls.... I nearly fell off a hidden ledge (some deer stopped me), and actually resulted me in falling part way down a small waterfall. Also a few lyrebird sounded like a grizzly bear dispite aus not having them once I was being looked over by an ambulance crew I found that a few decades back a few highschool kids thought it was funny to out up the mountain and play the roars of many deadly animals not in Australia.

a man chasing down a Tasmanian devil saying "the devil got my lindt" is, by far, THE single most Australian thing I have ever heard of.

12:08 " an economy sized kangaroo consuming enough product to make horten hear a who, what, and a how"😂

[ericthompson]

"If you saw a thylocine, for their own good, no you didn't." Nice

[crocowithaglocko]

Tasmania is essentially the Australian Expansion Pack
And I’m here for it

[jester]

13:27 "Proving that any animal with an Oreo pattern is running on demon timing." I can confirm this as the owner of a black and white cat named Oreo.

That guy at the end actually chasing down a _Tasmanian Devil_ to get his choco bar back is the definition of hardcore.

[horngeek]

Fun fact, I live in Sydney, and in the last ten years we've woken up to possums sleeping in our piano *three times*.

[wilsonsecaur]

"The seasons are flipped with summer being December to late February and winter being June to September. And if you want to fall without tripping, you'll have to March 1st" holy bars

[BillyMinnow]

"Their vision maybe poor but theyll still Pikachu" while showing a real life Pikachu is perfect

[davidvisscher]

Ive personally experienced a toilet frog 29 years ago in Brazil. That ribbit out the blue was terrifying.

[danielkover]

Honestly, Tasmania sounds like a place you'd read about in a fantasy novel. Or a sci-fi one. Or both.

[jochenau]

Zoo construction workers: *construct*
Lyrebird: _let me sing you the song of your people_

[ravena]

As an Aussie, the most terrifying sound I've heard is a kookaburra laughing between 1-3am in the morning. I legitimately thought I was going to die the fight time that happened

[lynternet]

dude a bird perfectly mimicking construction noise is the best thing i’ve seen in a while

[tazlinarhetoric]

16:10 "78% ya mongrel!" is unreasonably funny

[delaveer]

3:10 "Their vision might be poor but they'll still peek at you", he says while showing a picture of a real life pikachu. This guy definitely watches battle rap.

Hey I live in tassie and Neil the seal is such a menace, he has a thing for traffic cones - ones Neil has decided to sleep, he sleeps, anywhere- the road, in front of cars, leaning on poles- also he has fights with poles, he does not like them and constantly is trying to take them out of the ground by pounding on it with his chest.
So yes, Neil is a menace.
We also have a weird number of murders and missing people, and there’s like a massive bit of tassie that is just bush it’s weird as

[stevenlowe]

Mate I'm a born and bred Tasmanian but live in Melbourne now and this description of Tassie is the best one I've heard you should visit Australia and Tasmania one day as it's one of the most beautiful places on earth.
