i still drive an Aussie V8 🇭🇲🇭🇲

I've found this series fascinating, but I could use some subtitles. I can figure out the slang from context, but I'm an American and just not used to some of the accents. Just as I'm sure Australians might have trouble understanding me if I used my deepest Texas accent.

She is extraordinary. Forever beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Whos watching this in 2024

Great old photos from Australia 🇦🇺 Ray Martin talking

I love horse riding😊

The bronzed aussie is now a neutered fool who doesnt know its own gender

Regardless if car manufacturing is no longer in Australia...we cant deny as well the falling car ownership rates as people prefer public transportation. I feel at this point...car dealerships are slowly becoming fewer in number.

Abuse is abuse, when you are in a drunken stupor you lose your mind.

I kinda wonder if Annie reads these remarks i'de say yes.

Phil pot hypocrites 😂😂😂😂😮😢😢😢

I had the 1967 HR Holden sedan and station wagon in the 1980's for $500 even went to Beenleigh Drive in movie's. The good old days now can't get the HR Holden unless paying $10,000.

IWe used to make steel. We used build ships. We used build trains. We used to build lamps. Until the government thought it knew best. Fully dependent on overseas imports now.

I have photographs where my father would buy cars in the 1940s/50s and cut the back down and make utes. This was in the Macleay River Valley in NSW. Dad wasn't a sportsman but his passion was cars. He couldn't get a job as a licensed mechanic because he didn't have sufficient education but he could repair any of the car sin that era. Mum used to go him for buying and selling cars but she couldn't stop him. There was an interesting incident in Kempsey in one of these utes. I was in the front with dad and my older sister was in the back of the ute and as we were going past the PO in Kempsey a bystander shouted out, " Hey mister you've lost something. Dad stopped and we found that my sister had fallen out of the ute and luckily she wasn't hurt.

Notice no obese people. They were all slim in the early stages and took pride in what they wore and looked

Thats wat happens when you build on flood plains D

I'm still deeply sad he has gone from this earth. He shaped my music from a very early age and touched my life environmentally as much as my other hero, my Natal Parks Board Warden father who played a very large part in protecting the now iSimangaliso Wetland Heritage Site from dune mining. I miss them so deeply and pay tribute in playing his music to as many audiences as I can. There is one in October I'm deeply grateful to be part of.

Unfortunately NO mention of, the Utility ( Ute ) I still have one today, basically couldn't survive in my business without it 👍👍

I guess oddly enough "Looking for Space" is a favorite of mine.. 2 years and 5 months ago the Lord called my husband (of 39 years) Home. So I listen to the song and cry all the tears I had to hold in then. Thank you John for so much beautiful music. I pray you are where my love is.

When the nation was great run by white people, Christianity, community and nationalism. Then the dark Satanic forces altered our path with the flooding of the third world.

I'll never forget you! I hope you're enjoying soaring with the eagles! ❤

According to me, John Denver has the voice of an angel and he is one of the most wonderful human beeings that walked the earth ❣❣❣ Thank you soooo much for your beautiful music and rest in peace !!!💚💜💚💜💚💜

No mention of Chrysler other than 3 seconds of a (Hey) Charger, bloody typical.

Medical doctors from Europe couldn’t practice here, as their qualifications weren’t recognised. Yet there was a way around it. Australia’s Administration in Papua - New Guinea needed doctors for their hospitals and health services. So they arranged that if a doctor worked in PNG for 2 years, they could then register with the Australian Medical Board and practice in Australia. The administration then sent officers to the Holden factories in Adelaide and Melbourne and set-up stands in the canteen, where doctors working on the assembly lines could get info in their lunch break. The scheme was successful - patients in PNG were treated and later, Australia got more doctors - to handle the baby boom: ))😅

A desperate attempt to deceive the Australian people. The reality is Australia ranks close to the bottom of all countries when it come to technologic achievements. We have tried everything from building cars to launching space rockets and we have thoroughly failed everywhere we tried, sometimes with the help of the government. The facts are, Australia has an economic complexity index, nearly as low as Papua New Guinea. We export mainly unprocessed dirt and agricultural products, like any other third world country. The only way we can stay above the water is by building houses and import the people to fill them.

Th eustralian Government has always been populated by Morons

John's 2nd wife did to him, what Heather, Paul's 2nd wife, did to Paul McCartney. They both had babies so they could keep them around. It' was all about the money. And they thought it was for love. Annie was a true love for John and Paul's 1st wife Linda was the true love for Paul. So you see how greed, and popularity controls? I can only hope these men saw through them and made provisions to protect themselves. Unfortunately, John didn't live long enough to see his daughter grow up. I have all of John's CD's because i think he was a beautiful singer, who wanted to preserve the beauty of our America.

Yes we are a pretty dumb lot, flight recorder, GONE, Kambrook power board , DID NOT REGISTER THE DESIGN,GONE.

As a young boy i was on the Port Lincoln that took the first outside TV broadcasting unit to Melbourn in (I think it was 1955 or 6 I believe it went to St Kilder.

I think the Germans were using a type of flight data recorder in the second world war and it was a German miniature tape recorder that caught the attention of the Australians.

Oh I agree 😮 with what you said hear,❤ he never got the respect like the others but. Huh JD is even Better than all of these

Thanks for an amazing video of Aussie ingenuity. Sadly, due to bureaucracy and red tape some of them had to go overseas to flourish. Nonetheless, very proudly Australian.

3 years ago we bought a house in regional nsw for $347000, we just sold it and some will be used to put my mother into care and whats left will just buy a block of land. I've got to wait until Dad dies to put a house on it. I've earnt 3 times my parent's wages and home ownership has been far harder. My Grandparents managed, my parent's managed but in the last 15 years we've gone backwards. Somebody screwed our property markets big time, I can mention foreign ownership and money laundering which has bumped up all prices and the post covid white flight it's even worse.

The Australian government should fund all good inventions to keep the brainy people here and encourage new inventors. But that would be too forward thinking,

Bloody brilliant. Grandad was an investor, dad could fix everything, & if he couldn't get a car part, he just made it himself. No such thing as can't in my family.

As good as modern cars are, I doubt if the average modern (2024) sedan could put up with that 10,000 mile torture trail.

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"

Sadly most Politicians or people involved in decision making in Government have no VISION, dumb as a bag of hammers🧐🇦🇺

It is a brand new invention I copied and made better??????

Most things that was invented in auustralia went overseas and my father hatted the government of Australia for not backing the good ideas and that is why Australia has never advanced and become one of the best in the world and e ven today government ministers don’t want to help because the make money by trying to sell it overseas. The the guy that made connect blocks for like lego no one wanted to know him he went to America his wife left him he had no money left and now is very rich a tv company brought it for 35 million and 5 million every year and it took him 15 seconds to work out how to make it the whole idea was 15 seconds but the attitude in Australia is it is not something we need and only 15 seconds to come up with the complete idea and this is the attitude of women I’m not knocking women but if you have an idea and they can. Not see how it works they will rubbish it as it won’t interest them and now we have more and more women inventions are not staying in australia

Cor. That was really interesting. Well done cuzzies. Number 8 wire mentality and all that. I knew a lot of these were Australian but, some l'd never heard of. Actually read a great book called; The Mold in Dr Florey's Coat - on the story of the discovery of and urgent wartime need for penicillin and the lengths they took to keep it from possibly falling into the wrong hands- hence the title. Am fairly certain they never mentioned Dr Florey was Australian though - probably just called him British and had done with it. Hill's Hoists were/are the best clotheslines ever - nothing beat them for drying ability. Many happy memories of my brother and me flying around on one as kids and many not quite so happy memories of getting our ar$es tanned when we got caught. 😊

My grandfather invented the Jet Pump to pump water from the bottom of goldmining concerns during the 1920’s. But he failed to patent it and sold his plans.

....... and percy pilcher was ahead of the lot of 'em...................

Alexander Fleming discovered penicilin

Two absolute Legends. John Denver and Ray Martin. I was at that 94 Sydney Concert. And also saw him twice in Brisbane in the Eighties. What an amazing person. Thanks for the music John
