I wish I could tell all the tourists that it’s not Bris-BANE, it’s BRISb’n!
REALLY annoying
Also Brisvegas to the locals haha
So they have strong American accents, at least they are respectful!
It's not the bane of our existence.
Omg. I agree, got me grinding my teeth lol. Not their fault, no disrespect, but its ... ugh
The lizard is a Water Dragon, completely harmless and they're everywhere near waterways, they are a sign of a healthy ecosystem 😊.
And cool little critters to sit and watch. They have funny little personalities 😊
Its the Humidity not the heat that gets you, Captain Cook Memorial is the Border of NSW and QLD at Coolangatta on the Gold Coast
yep location of two of Australia's favorite surf breaks in Snapper Rocks(Queensland side) and Duranbah(New South Wales side), D'bah you will always know as its next to the break wall shown at 6:43
Please for the sake of all other's on the road DO NOT TURN YOUR LIGHTS OFF AND DO NOT SWERVE TO AVOID AN ANIMAL
Gotta avoid those agressive roos. Pity they weren't told about the Drop Bears!
Yes it is free to go to Street's Beach at South Bank
you hear a lot of people dogging on the sizes of the pizza compared to the US, but people also overlook that the small pizza here is $5au and the large (12") is about $15 and our toppings are fresher and better quality, you can get larger pizzas from small pizza shops, which are usually way better than the chain stores like dominoes, but cost more
oh forgot to mention, the beach they go to, is the beach you have heard mentioned by the brunet (think Brianna is her name), Burleigh Heads, it's a really awesome beach, well known in surfing world.
Don't think that's how you spell it tricky one for us fellas. What would we know.@siryogiwan
We live in Brisbane. A lot of people sleep on it (and other cities in Australia trash it), saying it's not as go go go, but it's the perfect place to raise a young family. Plenty of free family spaces/activities, not as expensive as Sydney/Melbourne, or as isolated as Perth. It has a more laid back vibe, which might not be as much fun to visit, but is fantastic to live in.
FYI, The lizard she saw is a water dragon, completely harmless, and we have one that has made our backyard home.
Hey Dream Team,
As an Ozzie, I gotta clarify a few things...
-The Gold Coast is not Brisbane! It's south of Brisbane! It will be a super-city soon but its not the same
The 'Captain Cook Memorial' is on Point Danger Lookout. The beach it overlooks is Duranbah (D'bah!)
-Brisbane is pronounced, Brisb'n! Not Bris-BAIN!
-Melbourne is pronounced, Melb'n, not Mel-BORN!
-Thongs are Jandals! You wear thongs on your feet!
-We don't sell 'fries'! We sell 'Chips'!
-Kangaroos do not attack cars! They freeze in headlights just the same as 'Hares, Rabbits and Deer!'
-And 'Drop-Bears' are deadly! They will kill you!
They get spooked by their shadow moving past the opposite side of the car, so they hop away from it, thinking it's a predator or something trying to get them, which is right as the vehicle is passing by.
Actually to Americans they are flip flops they have no idea what Jandals are and technically it depends where you go about the fries thing most pubs and bars and restaurants call them chips but the fast food outlets like kfc, maccas and hungry jacks still call them fries
Surfers Paradise (on gold coast. Not Brisbane). Is awesome.
Ok so 11:20 time stamp on vid is when they actually arrive in Brisbane. All previous places are on the Gold Coast
You'd think that in the time they'd already been in Australia they'd have heard Aussies pronouncing Brisbane (when they hired their car, for instance) and follow suit rather than making us cringe and grind our teeth with every utterance of "Briz-BAYN". One of the first things a sensible, sensitive traveller in other countries would do is to listen carefully to how place names are pronounced there, or ask/check first rather than butchering them. Some Americans like Tia and Cheveyo, the One Pack Wanderers (great channel), do this. Others tend to reinforce negative stereotypes about US Americans being self-absorbed, uninformed, inattentive, etc.
So to explain how it should be pronounced It's "Briz-Bin" - don't ask why, just accept it.
Hopeless
1st half of this video is GOLD COAST. NOT BRISBANE That 1st beach was Coolangatta Beach on the Gold Coast. My beautiful home town 60km south of Brisbane.
It's D'bah actually 😎🤙
Definitely not Brisbane 😒
It’s interesting seeing this through the eyes of Americans. I am from Brissy and these are places we nonchalantly commute through on a regular basis from the Gold Coast - Brisbane 😊
As a bushwoman, Brisbane is one of my favourite cities, not just in Australia but the world. It is so slept one because people just think of Sydney, but is a beautiful city. If you go to Brisbane, make sure you go to Australia Zoo, home of the Irwin family (as in the crocodile hunter). It is an amazing zoo.
Hey Neal, if you ever get to Brisbane and SE Qld, happy to give you all the inside info from a local based on what you like to see and do rather than just the standard tourist stuff.
Yeah they'll rock up to your house
I love Brissi, I feel like it's suuuper underated. Everyone always talks about Sydney and Melbourne because they are so well known, but Brissi can definetly hold it's own!
Along that walkway beside the manmade beach, {South Bank) there is also a performing arts centre, I saw Hamilton there last year and Chicago just a few days ago. The musuem is also only a short walk away, always fun things to see and do there, especsially for the kids. And in the surrounding blocks there is TONS of resturants, ice-cream parlours, chocolate shops and just plain old shop shops lol. You can even just have a nap on the lawn in front of the river if you like, I see people doing that on their lunch breaks all the time haha.
Unfortunately parking can be a bit of a nightmare, but if your prepared it's not that big of a deal.
I'm leaving out a lot, please don't yell at me for forgetting anything fellow Aussies lol. If you ever do come to Australia, don't overlook Brisbane Neal!
Public transport into and around Brisbane is great and easy to use. Better than driving into the city and parking.
They sure saw a lot of Brisbane - South Bank and a Airbnb. Their videos are rubbish.
Brisbane is beautiful would love to go there, looks as nice as Perth Western Australia.
🦘
Lived in Brisbane for 9 months. Loved it
Brizzy's better than Perth.
I've lived in both; Perth is boring af, Brizzy has waaaay more going for it.
@@christyzeeaquarianated2600
You should of been hanging out with my friends and myself and you would of had lots of fun.
🤣😂
@@christyzeeaquarianated2600
Are you aquarian
@-sandman4605 yeah mate, I'm an Aquarian.
I wasn't a fan of WA, stayed for a few years, but I prefer the East Coast.
Perth is just a big country town lol, it reminded me a little too much of the shitty small town I grew up in and couldn't wait to get out of.
you have to remember most of Australia is on the coast so it is a very humid heat. when you travel inland it is a dry heat.
No wrong, they might get startled by the light, but they can jump in any direction.
They get spooked by their shadow moving past the opposite side of the car, so they hop away from it, thinking it's a predator or something trying to get them, which is right as the vehicle is passing by.
@@andyossie Crap! I've driven past hundreds of roos over the years and not one of them has cast a shadow because as any 5 year old will tell you, there has to be a light behind something for it to cast a shadow. Where did you get this from?
@@warrenturner397 your car headlights
@@warrenturner397 I'm talking about after dark with the headlights on
Brisbane is an hour from the coast
a lot of the Australian cities have a man-made beach/lagoon in the centre of town
the yellow man are for workers.
they indicate a hazard, if it is an overhead hazard they are pointing up
Brissy is a beautiful city that you would both love, western Brisbane does get hot in summer(November to February)
Sometime before our (2023 Twenty Twenty Three) Women's (FIFA Federation Internation Football Association) World Cup Football (Soccer) Tournament from last year is that our Australian Capital Cities each had their very own First Nation's Indigenous Names which are,
Aboriginal Name for Sydney is Warrane (Pronounced) as Wah-rang,
Aboriginal Name for Melbourne is Naarm (Pronounced) as Narr-m,
Aboriginal Name for Brisbane is Meeanjin (Pronounced) as Mee-an-jin,
Aboriginal Name for Adelaide is Tarntanya (Pronounced) as Tarn-dan-ya,
Aboriginal Name for Perth is Boorloo (Pronounced) as Boor-loo,
Aboriginal Name for Hobart is nipaluna (n is lower case) (Pronounced) as nipah-loonah,
Finally, the Aboriginal Name for Canberra was actually a derived from the word Ngambri. "When Canberra was first settled by Joshua John Moore in 1821, Joshua Moore named his property Kamberri after the local people, because he couldn't get his tongue around the Ng sound, as many people can't, of course.
Cars rented out for a trip usually come with a full tank of gas, meaning you'll have to return it with a full tank. That $100 cost of renting it increases depending on how much fuel you use.
They actually come with PETROL!
You should not blue tooth connect to a rental car. When you connect all your personal information like website cookies and address books can also be automatically downloaded to the car computer. The next time the car goes to a dealership your personal info is available for the mechanics to download.
Also 30 degrees here would feel like 40-45 in most places because of the humidity in Queensland it feels way hotter then it actually is
Kangaroos don't charge your car. The headlights will daze them so best to be aware when driving before sunrise and after sunset. "Southbank' in Brisbane city is the old 'EXPO 88' site. The Brisbane City Council kept the site and upgraded it as your saw in the video.
Yep! I played 'Hacky Sack' at Expo in 88!
Roos will stomp bonnets & windscreens to sometimes
If you visit Australia definitely come to Brisbane, been here almost my whole life n love it mate
Of course it’s COOL! It’s MY city!
i don't understand how you can get jet lac from New Zealand to Australia basically the same times.
Australia is phenomenally expensive. Yes the wages are higher compared to many countries, but prices are also higher.
#DreamTeamNeal... The Australian White Ibis (AKA Bin Chicken) is a water bird found in most wetland areas and waste bins.
After storm... Had a 4ft carpet snake living in my BBQ for 2 days. And 3 large huntsman spiders inside. 😅
I am never living in Brisbane. It is a good for a visit but do not envy the storms and flooding you have to deal with.
Brisbane is two and a half hours drive from me or about 220klms. Nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there. I like the bush out where I am, big house blocks and more wildlife than you can poke a stick at. I would like the weather to settle down though cause it looks likes like we're in for more storms.
Starting to clear up in Byron 👍
It's annoying listening to people spread nonsense, Kangaroos are not aggressive and will not charge a car, they get dazzled by headlights just like other animals do, Deer etc I
This depends on where the kangaroos are, out west around Charleville the big reds are very aggressive. Kangaroos hang around the roadside at dawn and dusk because the grass on the edge of the road is lush due to any rain runoff from the road. Kangaroos have decent eyesight and do see you coming but they underestimate the sound, this can be startling and Roos facing away from the road are the potentially dangerous ones. This is because they will push with their feet whilst turning in air so they go from a stop to moving much faster. Unfortunately the moment you scare them and the time it takes for them to escape from you is about just right to meet them in the middle of the road at 100kph. The roo shoo devices pump out a sound they here much earlier so they flee usually before you sight them.
@garyrose9805 that's not aggression, it's panic
They get spooked by their shadow moving past the opposite side of the car, so they hop away from it, thinking it's a predator or something trying to get them, which is right as the vehicle is passing by.
@@Maxiakt the big reds stand in the road and flex like there macho man randy savage.
@@garyrose9805 Mate, have travelled squillions Kms around Cunnamulla, Chareliville, Tambo, Blackall, and everwhere between Boulia to Longreach and east to Winton etc and totally agree with your comments aprat from the agression bit. Once cliiped a big one between Talwood and Goondi. Jumped into the middle of the road, stopped, looked at me and sai "Feck", jumped straight up and touched the bonnet, went straight over the car and the last I saw of him he was hopping down the road behind me. Had an interesting time trying to claim insurance like drawing the location of the other "vehicle". Did you have a good laugh at the shadow comment!
I note they don't mention being stuck in traffic for 3 hours trying to drive the 44 miles From the Coast to Brisbane! That' why we take the train every time and it only costs $3.00
What trains are you catching? Every time I take one even for a 20 minute trip it’s at minimum $5 and more the further you go
I live where the Captain Cook thing was. More than happy to host you if you make it to this part of Australia 😁
It's just Koala there not a bear there a Marsupial. Gold Coast is Gorgeous so is Brisbane. YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Milo I haven't had that in years. I don't think I have had it since I left Australia 17 years ago.
Queensland is a beautiful state but unfortunately it has typical East Coast weather - HUMID . Here in the West its Dry Heat . Celsius to Fahrenheit is roughly double it then add 30 . So you end up a out by a couple of degrees at freezing and a couple of degrees at 100F .
I’m on the Gold Coast now having a break
Brisben is in Australia, Brisbane is in California!
Internationally people think all American pizza's are tom' base, cheese and peperoni on top because that's all we ever see on TV and in movies.
I'd like to know where they rented that car. No way prices for car rental in Australia are that low.
BRIZ-BIN!!
I hit a Kangaroo when I lived in the Northern territory, I was driving a small car, it was like hitting a wall, the Kangaroo just hopped away a little dazed, it was fine no injury.
But you guys over in the US dont get the humidity here that we have in Queensland and northern Australia.
Kangaroos get spooked by their shadow moving past the opposite side of the car, so they hop away from it, thinking it's a predator or something trying to get them, which is right as the vehicle is passing by.
Petrol and gasoline are actually the same thing; just different words. These two words have the same meaning, with the only difference being in the places where the words are used. The term 'petrol' is used in UK, Australia, India and a few other places, while 'gasoline' or 'gas for short' is used in the United States.
Yes the headlights cause the poor kangaroos night blindness. Also it can on occasions s get to 105 to 110 Fahrenheit in summer.
Is it just me or does the dude in this look like an older version of Mclovin?
😂😂 I thought the same. Brilliant 😅
Part of the price issue with NZ is we are so far away from everything else internationally. If it isn't local then we have to import it and pay the fees to get it here. But the we also have inflation and other government money stuff that yes NZ is a bit more expensive than AU.
I'm still not going over the ditch tho. We have Whittaker's chocolate here.
Hahahahahahaha..... and Australia isn't far away from everything. Australia is just as far away as NZ.
We have Whittaker’s chocolate here in Oz as well
Welcome to my home...Brissy will forvevr be home, no matter where i go
I love the fact this couple is exploring and experiencing Brisbane, but every time I hear her say the name I cringe so hard. To pronounce it correctly say Brisssssbin… Kangaroos chasing cars 😂
Those girls must be city girls, I have never heard of a kangaroo attacking a car, and koalas could rip you apart in the wild,
copyright music?! I'd assume if it's playing without issue on their video, it's most likely DRM Free and should be ok to play without muting on your videos.
Funny thing to have a memorial for a current, living running back for the Buffalo Bills. Let him COOK!
Brisbane is hosting the 2032 Olympics. Come on down
That’s a mistake
Do not turn of your lights if you drive at night and see a kangaroo,, they do not charge your car
2032 Olympics in Brisbane by the way
Big mistake
Koalas aren't bear.. also they are aggressive. Si would u be if u slept half the day as Nd stoned most of the time 6:34
Hearing tourists say “BrisBAIN” and “MelBORN” hurts my ears worse than nails on a blackboard.
Hungry Jacks is Burger King in Sydney
Its Burger King everywhere in Australia
@@23heltar Wrong!
@@BlackPanther-is8yy it’s not called Burger King anywhere in the country I lived in Sydney and unless they changed it it was never once called Burger King Is Sydney Burger King is called hungry jacks all over the country
@23heltar I stand corrected, there used to be Burger King in Sydney City, Parramatta, I just looked it up and they are now Hungry Jack's, my bad
"BrisBANE"
Me : "Nnoooooo!!! Brisb-bun/bris-ban!!11" 😢
Lol.
Wtf? No bluetooth in the car. Except for the phone button on the dash that connects to bluetooth. Could she not see that. 🙄🙄😁
Mate, you come to Brisbane while the AFL season is underway and I'll shout you both entry to a Brisbane Lions game. It will be such new experience for you.
Go Blues on March 9
The Gold Coast isn’t Brisbane.
Thank God!
It's pronounced Bris-bin 😂😅
Meh...see roos and wallabies nearly every day here. Occasionally you'll see the odd koala or two along with wombats and echidnas.
It's pronounced Brisbn
With the cost of fuel here in Australia the hire car would cost $100 to fill it back up when returning the car let alone the cost of the hire which you can get for $25 a day if your lucky.
If you were to ever come to Brisbane and wanted to see Kangaroos in the "wild", believe it or not the most reliable way to see them would be out the back of the prisons in Wacol.
Also the nearby golf club (Wolston Park golf club, I think).
Kangaroos wont necessarily charge at your car but they are scared of the light and freak out and don’t know what to do
They get spooked by their shadow moving past the opposite side of the car, so they hop away from it, thinking it's a predator or something trying to get them, which is right as the vehicle is passing by.
@@andyossie When will you realise that this is rubbish?
@@warrenturner397 well you explain to me why they always hop straight at the car right as you drive past them?
Live in Brissy and I cringe everytime she says Brisbane 🥴
Aust has no jungle WE GOT THE BUSH....... b u s h
It's not pronounced Bris-baaannnneee. It is Bris-biiiiiinnn. It's spelt the former but said the latter.
Brisbane is the best state in Australia. 🦘🌺
State????
Bris-bin is not a state Just the Capital of Queensland .
It's just a freaking CITY (with no beach)!
With the worst education system in Australia it seems.
@@dallasr8555 😁👍
Omg!!! Please say Brisbin not Bris bane!!!
Dominoes ? Ughh ! Try a REAL pizzeria.Same thing for Starbucks........rubbish product that failed in Australia.Surely if you travel you try local products,not the stuff you have "back home"
And Gloria Jeans Is just as bad as Starbucks . IT Always tastes burnt & bitter.
People that are over peppy like this drive me cuckoo
$100 for 4 days but their car insurance would have been astronomically high. One thing about them that annoys me is their constant mis-pronunciation of place names, it doesn't take much effort on their part to ask a local on the correct way to say things. Or they could always google the answer. But after a week they should have known better
I agree. She really seemed so self important to the point of being annoying. The Aussie girls on the flight from Bali probably were sick and tired of her and told her to turn her lights off at night while driving hoping she would have an accident. Just who would admit that in a video? ... Only someone dumb and gullible.
Give them a break. Like when you go overseas do you know how to pronounce all the local names and places correctly. I bet you don't.
@@fc7424 I have been to 16 countries, yes, I try to make the effort to use the proper pronunciation, not always successfully but it should be easier for them as English speakers to pronounce the city names in an English speaking country
@@fc7424 Yes, I do actually. I have lived and worked in the USA, UK and Hong Kong over the decades and I have worked with educated Americans here in Australia. I found that educated Americans are keen to learn local customs and do their research before arriving. I always do the same before I go to another country.
This person stands out when compared to another young American couple about the same age, the 'One Pack Wanderer' channel, who actually ask how place names are pronounced. They show respect and interest for new places and have an enormous following on YT. The OPWs picked up on how to pronounce Melb'n and Brisb'n and even pointed out that they are not pronounced phonetically. That shows their intelligence and maturity beyond this 'girl'.
Their pronunciation of Brisbane is truly, awful.
The girls was. Her fella at least tried to say it correctly.
absolutely grating on the ears, Same as MELBORN...
Kangaroos attack cars so the drop bears get their sleep......! Oh,pleeeeze check the pronunciation of place names..... Brisbain....I think not
Yep! Tru dat!
Kangaroos do not charge your car, the lights blind them. Dont take advoce from gen zers they literally know nothing also utubers with long intros will get a no from me
Hate it when american s can't pronounce Aussie places
Why do Americans have such trouble pronouncing our places. (Melb-"born") (Bris-"baine") come on people.... It's not hard Brisbin!!! Melbin!!!
It's not like we go over to the States and say oooooh!!! i can't wait to travel through (Illi-"noise") and (Arkan-"sass")
Misery was my favourite because it was!
@@warrenturner397My dog has a habit of crapping in kids playgrounds.
NEXT?
The way they kept
Mispronouncing Brisbane hurt my ears, it’s bris ben not bris bane
Just like Mel bin not Mel born
I have lived here for 68 years & never heard it called Bri-Ben ,Always been Bri-Bin & Mel- Bin where I also lived for 7 years.
@@gregoryparnell2775 I just spelt it out how I would say it in my voice, I’m northern NSW 2 hours away from you, that’s how we say it, at least people from around here do
