Gavin, this episode is "next level" in so many ways. Just a stunning presentation of not only the rock art, but the crash site as well. Perfect blend of footage and information.
Great work Gavin. Thanks for taking us to such incredible places. I grew up in Australia and moved to California in 2010. Finding these clips takes me back to old precious memories and new places I hope one day to visit myself.
Awesome addition to the catalogue Gav. Fantastic Rock Art, I feel very privileged to see it. The only thing better would be to see it in person one day. Thanks again and well done. They just keep getting better.
Wow one of your best video's yet! Amazing to see the rock art and burial grounds. The B25 crash site was quite something to see. Cheers my friend, Pete
Chris Lai thanks mate, I'm glad you enjoyed that. I really like the aboriginal history and it was fascinating talking with an anthropologists about the possibility that the Bradshaw art was from original African migration and the younger art potentially being the migration of asian descent migrants.
Darren Moore yeah no signs when I was there too. It had a fence though. I thought that was good. I tried getting more information about the site. I spoke with anthropologists and indigenous elders but nobody knew anything about the sites history.
Australia has been linked to Africa, for example, the Island of Madagascar, the people resembling the Aborigines of Australia. Many tales of Australian aborigines are reported in Ethiopia, and even Angola, for example.
lone wolf the more I learn the more I think the ancient world was far better connected through trade amd art than we perhaps realise. Thank you for sharing that
Brilliant viewing this on ....... Australia Day :) Best expressed by the words in this Goana song; Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway You feel the endlessness with the comin' of the light o' day We're talkin' about a chosen place You wouldn't sell it in a marketplace, well Well just a minute now Standing on solid rock Standing on sacred ground Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime And the winds of change are blowin' down the line
Hey Gav,love your work mate,hate to tell you but thats not a B25,think it's a Lockheed Hudson. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Hudson#/media/File:Lockheed_Hudson_III_Point_Cook_Vabre.jpg
Oh, well thats cool. I was told it was a B25 by locals but there are plenty of visual similarities with your photo. I will have a deeper look it. I love a mystery :D Thank you for writing in and letting me know :D
Rock art shows that we were part of the main African Continent at some stage . Would not have been a good place to be when all hell broke loose. Let’s hope it never happens again at least not in our life time or our siblings time.
the out of Africa thing is a theory. Looks like they didn't bury them just left them where they died by the looks of the skulls. I suppose the national parks department know about them. " Matt Flinders " lol How good is that name? the other Matt Flinders and his cat, " Trim " www.abc.net.au/news/image/8302512-3x2-700x467.jpg B25 fantastic find. I wonder is it's been officially recorded? ah! here it is www.goodall.com.au/australian-aviation/kimberley-war-relics/kimberleyrelics.html
Yeah I think it's interesting too. Because the area is so big they do a lot of fire prevention from the Air in Australia. Little known fact, we also have a species of bird we call fire hawks which literally use fire to hunt. They will pick up burning sticks from one area and move them to another. Set fire to the land and thrn hunt the fleeing animals :)
Brilliant rock art!!!! You have done a respectful and passionate job Gav. Great work fella!!
Thank you sir, that is always my aim :D
Gavin, this episode is "next level" in so many ways. Just a stunning presentation of not only the rock art, but the crash site as well. Perfect blend of footage and information.

Great work Gavin. Thanks for taking us to such incredible places. I grew up in Australia and moved to California in 2010. Finding these clips takes me back to old precious memories and new places I hope one day to visit myself.

The rock art was amazing mate! Interesting insight into the 2 art styles. McGowans Island Campground looks a treat.
Chris Lai thanks mate, I'm glad you enjoyed that. I really like the aboriginal history and it was fascinating talking with an anthropologists about the possibility that the Bradshaw art was from original African migration and the younger art potentially being the migration of asian descent migrants.
Those paintings are cool, I was surprised how close you can get to the burial site when I was there but no signs saying no photos or anything.
Darren Moore yeah no signs when I was there too. It had a fence though. I thought that was good. I tried getting more information about the site. I spoke with anthropologists and indigenous elders but nobody knew anything about the sites history.
Very nice and respected video. Thank you mate

That "aluminum" piston is the chromed part of the landing gear leg. Made of steel...
Happy Australia day.

You feel the endlessness with the comin' of the light o' day
We're talkin' about a chosen place
You wouldn't sell it in a marketplace, well
Well just a minute now
Standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowin' down the line
Hugh Jazz Great song :)

No probs mate,keep up with sweet vid's.

Trevor Fidge interesting, I always thought the breakup was slow over time. Never occurred to me it could have been a violent reaction to something

How did the fire start?
Normally fires like this in the north west are started for control purposes by local authorities via aerial fire bombing.
Interesting. Similar to Yellow Stone.
Yeah I think it's interesting too. Because the area is so big they do a lot of fire prevention from the Air in Australia.

And the lump of steel in the three is aluminum... :(
