I went to school with a girl who lived on a sheep station that was many times larger than some European countries. Prior to boarding in the city, she was picked up in the morning and dropped off in the afternoon at her front gate by the school bus from the nearest town. However, the front gate was about 10 km from the homestead. So, as soon as she was tall enough to reach the pedals, she was taught to drive herself to the front gate in one of the station's cars and then drive herself home. Perfectly legal as she was on private property.
@@hassanjamal6094 the bus went to the front gate of the property. However, the property was so big that the actual house was 10 km from the front gate.

In terms of crazy high figures for land ownership, the Roman Catholic Church is up there. The commonly agreed upon estimate is around 716,000 square kilometers (~276,000 square miles) of land around the world, including land in very expensive places like NYC. So while Vatican City is technically the world's smallest country, they own a lot more land abroad
@@JuneNafziger afai know, most of the churches property belongs to the dioceses (that is the area of one bishop). I know, that the diocese of Köln (Cologne in English), which is one of 27 dioceses in Germany, has property of 3.4 billion €.
@@JuneNafziger No, Vatican does not own them, only some very few. From legal stand point of view every parish is separate entity and if parson goes rogue then bishop nor Pope cannot call police to remove him.

So when in 1870s some clergymen rejected authority of Pope then all the wealth they administered was transferred to new organisation called "Old Catholic Church" :P
The size of these Australian Cattle stations meant that they were one of the early precursors to zoom classes back in the day, using a single teacher with radios communicating with them.
Ah I remember "school of the air". No we were NOT on the radio from 9am to 3pm. Most of the time it was doing the work required, as we can, then asking questions at specific time periods to get questions answered or the teacher going over certain items. Total radio time would be more like 2 hrs over the school day. Most teachers had multiple classes (usually different grades/years), which was the main reason for the specific time period for questions and teaching.

Never did I think that a cafe in the Sydney suburb in which I grew up in, Wahroonga, would somehow end up in a HAI video. This channel continues to amaze (and baffle).
As someone that's recently driven the Oodnadatta track and driven through William creek and Anna creek station, words do not do justice to the absolute vast emptiness of the land up there
Bigger than 49 countries but probably with a smaller population than an apartment block in China Edit: damn wait 11 people? More like a single floor of an apartment block in China… or literally any apartment block ever
As an Australian I must fulfil my constitutional duty and explain the ‘oo’ in Wahroonga is pronounced as a short vowel sound (like you’re saying on and in at the same time). In any case, if you are passing Wahroonga I recommend the butchers block just down the road instead!

Remember this from the Top Gear Episode. The numbers thrown at me back then boggled my mind. Still does. That and the fact that they use helicopters to herd their thousands of cattle.
That S. Kidman logo you used has an amazing coincidence. In telegraphy, SK with an overbar would mean it's the SK prosign, transmitted in Morse Code like an S and a K run together. It means "End of Contact/End of Work" It's also commonly used in Amateur Radio circles to mean "Silent Key", indicating an operator whose "key" will never be heard again, because they're deceased, as Sir Sidney Kidman is. Their website uses a different logo, probably because some smart aleck like me pointed that out.
Kidman, who created the largest cattle station started at 15 with nothing. He gradually built his holdings with a brilliant concept in mind. If the station was large enough in the north south direction, no matter what time of the year there would be water somewhere on the property. It worked.
Also he could move his cattle from Queensland to South Australia without crossing anyone else's property. At the age of 15 in 1939 my dad worked as the cook's off-sider for 12 months droving cattle along that route.
Something that really weirded me out was when you said that the temperature regularly hits 55c on a cattle farm … that’s the temperature that we will cook a joint of beef at the restaurant I work at so it’s a nice rosy rare-medium rare, so I can only assume that these cows are walking around basically precooked
@@drcgaming4195 does it better than most, half the cunts go and say that every day its 50C here, or that anything above 30C is blisteringly hot, no inbetween.
If it's any consolation, the record temperature ever recorded in Australia is slightly under 51 degrees. I've gone higher with thermometers in my car, but it's irrelevant. Point is, don't leave anything in enclosed spaces.
My dad once worked as a stockman at Alexandria Station which at the time was even bigger, biggest farm in the world. 11,000 Square miles. But a law was passed limiting how much Australian land could be owned by overseas parties and half the station got sold off. Its still the 3rd biggest station in Australia, but not what it used to be.
The Coober Pedy butcher's the best smash patties in south Australia, go there if you ever get the chance. Oh and also check out the big winch or something idk.
Amazing video, really informative and engaging! Just be careful, at 1:20 you said the indigenous Australians (Aboriginals) had lived on this land for centuries. The actual number is closer to 50,000 to 60,000 years, making it correct to say millennia instead of centuries.
I love Sam, and I think pretty much everything about him is amazing, except for watching him run up that hill in Amsterdam with Joseph. That was painful.
"Overlooking the fact that Indigenous people had managed to live off that land for c̶e̶n̶t̶u̶r̶i̶e̶s̶ millennia" FTFY Also, it seems that your average MPV (mispronunciation per video) goes way up with Australian content, might be worth getting an Australian in to run through the script with you whenever you're talking about us (happy to provide that help if you don't know any Australians).
I second both of these. Also, no part of the Australian continent has ever been ceded by the First Peoples who lived here for tens of millennia. So if we're going to talk ownership, then "Always Was, Always Will Be Aboriginal land".
@@byrongsmith Look I have no skin in this game, but land doesn't need to be ceded in a treaty for you to lose ownership of it. If you can't defend your land with military strength, then the land belongs to whatever stronger power that wants it. That's how land has shifted ownership over millennia in our planet. Conquest and Resettlement are not unique to Australia or even in the context of European settler colonies. Look at present-day Ukraine for example, the land is only Ukrainian if they can defend it with blood sweat and tears. If they lose the war, then Russia will roll in and then the land shifts ownership irrespective of anyone "ceding" any land.
@@thekrakenrises9040 There are more forms of strength than lethal violence. And more ways to belong to land than killing anyone who questions your right to have stolen it.
@@thekrakenrises9040 observing the way megalomaniac, oppressive leaders abused the peaceful historically is absolutely not a justification for it. That's like saying a victim of abuses body belongs, in the time of abuse, to the overpowering party. Yes, it happens, no it's not right.
Once upon a time, Victoria River Downs was the size of Denmark. After WW1 the Australian government thought it too large and divided it into 4 for Soldier Settlers to run.
3:25 Lake Eyre is pronounced like air (yeah I don't know how that spelling makes that pronunciation), normally it's empty but it does have a yacht club.
My completely uniformed guess is: "Ey" is pronounced like the letter A British English thinks "-re" should be pronounced like "er" for some reason. Slur those together and it's basically pronounced the same as "air".
Always nice to see Southern Hemisphere content! Also, if you need an Australian place-name accent coach please hmu 😅 Woomera, Oodnadatta, and Lake Eyre send their regards

It was so weird hearing you talk about the way we run properties, have mail delivered, and small rural town economies like it was something incredible, but it's exactly the same arrangement as my grandparent's 270,000acres in western NSW and my close friend's 480,000acres (though it's technically 8 properties) in central QLD.
Fun fact... Coober Pedy sits on top of the Arckaringa Basin which is an oil reserve some estimates say is arguably larger than Saudi . It went suspiciously quiet after the study though
I remember driving through this property on a drive to see Lake Eyre, I remember seeing a cow that was bigger than our 4x4. This cow was absolutely massive!
I went to Darwin High School, the "Tank" at the school provided water for the abattoirs (obviously before it was a school). One of the stations that provided cattle for the abattoir was the VRD, which about 100 years ago was about 50% bigger than Anna Creek. I also recall when in Geraldton my kids talking to another child at a BBQ and the child saying they got the beef from their station at it was 1000 acres and then the mother mentioned actually it was 1000km2. Just a small one.
Oh Sam, Sam, Sam you disappoint me and make me laugh at the same time! You need to come to the land down under and learn how words are pronounced. Lake Eyre is a good example, Eyre is pronounced like the word air. We do have very harsh and unforgiving environment especially the further inland you go. It is amazing how these station work with so few people and very few resources. The stations also really do highlight the size of our island nation that people from Europe and even the Americas just don’t understand.
Honestly, just call someone here. I felt like the first half of the video was just trying to annoy us with that (I know it's his thing, but my god does it trigger me).
i think they contract extra hands during things like musters. Station owners can contract aviation companies to help with herding. Then the pilots work for another station a few days later when the job is done. But they also have dogs, which really reduces their need for people. Dogs can do a huge amount of work for almost free.
You pronounce Australian names with the same accuracy that a Bantu tribesman would pronounce Massachusetts. Oh, The Station on Coonanbarra Road, Wahroongah, is a good feed.

Actually just came back from a holiday where we stopped at Coober Pedy, it's wild that the town exists. There's a decent amount of opal there, but it's also the only town on the way to Alice Springs once you're past port Augusta. No phone reception most of the way there, and even the Roadhouses along the way are spaced out hundreds of kilometres apart from each other.
Dude, I absolutely love your videos, but I need to give you this feedback…As an Australian, this video was hard to watch, with the gross mispronunciations of almost every place name. I’ve heard this in your other Australian-based videos too, which was also grinding my gears. I can only assume this is true for all your videos of foreign places. It might be worth checking with a local on how to pronounce local places or words, I think it will increase the quality/impact of your videos so much more. Keep up the great content, thank you!

Hi, I used to live there back when SK owned it in the early 2010s.

lol, but in all seriousness, the average farm here in australia is just above 10,000 acres (funnily enough mines exactly 10,000 acres) and hobby farms are normally under 500 acres (unless your on the coast)

Actually there is a Ranch in Australia called "Kidman & Co" that was literally half the size of the UK before it got sold (it was over 100,000 sq/km) it's literally bigger than Belgium, Neatherlands Israel etc... it's much bigger than Anna Creek Station. Oh and also Nicole Kidman is related to Sidney Kidman, the historic founder of the massive ranch! Oh and also, Anna Creek Station used to be part of Kidman & Co Ranch! Before it was sold and separated.
"As big as Texas..." "Yeah, nah, but good try mate." I grew up for a time on Granite Downs Station and the idea that Texas is "big" is just, well, amusing. Yeah, I see what you did about the relative.
Granite Downs? Let me think... Chandler siding on the Darwin line in the area? Yes, Texans are going to have to come down under and discover that Australia is bigger than Texas! Our stations, road trains and a few other things....
People who aren't from Australia (particularly Western Australia), Russia or Canada find it difficult to grasp how unbelievably vast, empty and remote these countries are. The cattle stations are absolutely enormous here, to the point where helicopters are often used for mustering.
Australia is almost same size as US but 95% empty Different climate 46 % tropical and some equatorial a whole lot of subtropical Arid and Mediterranean
I am not sure where the person who put the video together got the 55 degrees centigrade (144 degrees Fahrenheit) figure from. Temperatures of this magnitude are comparable to what you may get in Furnace Creek in the US but to my knowledge we’ve never seen these sorts of temperatures here in Oz. Sure, Australians are used to summer heat, but most only have to endure the occasional day over 40 Celsius (104 Fahrenheit). On January 13 2022, though, the temperature peaked at 50.7 C (123.3 F) in Onslow, a small Western Australian (WA) town around 100 km (62 miles) from Exmouth [on the western coast of West Australia. The town actually sits right next to the ocean, which usually provides cooling. By contrast, the infamously hot WA town of Marble Bar has only reached 49.6 C (121.3 F) last summer, despite its inland location. If confirmed, the Onslow temperature would equal Australia’s hottest on record set in Oodnadatta, South Australia, in January 1960. It would also mark only the fourth day over 50 C (122 F) for an Australian location since reliable observations began. So, Ian, when you and your family do finally travel to Australia, rest assured you are not going to see 55 degrees anywhere except perhaps inside a car with all the doors closed and the A/C turned off during a heat wave.
There is no official weather station in the basin of Kati Thanda, however in basins like this it is possible to higher temperatures. This is particularly the case due to the high level of reflection from the salt when the lake is dry.
Hey a suggestion for another gigantic farm would be Monette farms in Saskatchewan. They have a very interesting story and own land all over North America
What I been told, most stations or Cattle stations in Australia, are like the size of the State of Israel. 22,000 kilometres per square. But most of them, are located at the Australian outback. Most of that land it's desert. But still amazing, terrain.

Bigger than 49 countries but probably with a smaller population than an apartment block in China
Edit: damn wait 11 people? More like a single floor of an apartment block in China… or literally any apartment block ever
@Patrick Hudson came here to say this.
Pretty sure it has something like 8 people
Correction:11
Close enough
Probably the correct population for … A FARM, though.
Could’ve just said “one story apartment building” an apartment block in China is way more than 11 people.
Theres over 1000 people in my apartment complex 😂 (hong kong)

As an Australian I must fulfil my constitutional duty and explain the ‘oo’ in Wahroonga is pronounced as a short vowel sound (like you’re saying on and in at the same time). In any case, if you are passing Wahroonga I recommend the butchers block just down the road instead!
It used to be a butcher shop owned by Percy Bergen I worked there about 30 years ago also Bonjour Patisserie (great pies and cherry danish) was a Lanes Meats butchery as well, I worked there for about 3 years.
Wahroonga station has some great cafés
Also the pronunciation of Woomera was a little triggering. "Woo-meh-rah"? Really? :P
@@epicbeardface2981 I like how on every TH-cam video about Australia, there is always the Aussie meet and greet in the comments! Thanks for the tip about the cherry danish, next time I’m down in Sydney I’ll have to try one
Remember this from the Top Gear Episode. The numbers thrown at me back then boggled my mind. Still does. That and the fact that they use helicopters to herd their thousands of cattle.
That one was wave hill/ cattle creek station in the NT
@@alexkoch8716 you're right. I remember that now.
@@adithyamenon8517 one of the best episodes I recon 👍
The majority of cattle stations in Australia use helicopters to muster cattle
That S. Kidman logo you used has an amazing coincidence. In telegraphy, SK with an overbar would mean it's the SK prosign, transmitted in Morse Code like an S and a K run together. It means "End of Contact/End of Work" It's also commonly used in Amateur Radio circles to mean "Silent Key", indicating an operator whose "key" will never be heard again, because they're deceased, as Sir Sidney Kidman is. Their website uses a different logo, probably because some smart aleck like me pointed that out.
Kidman, who created the largest cattle station started at 15 with nothing.
He gradually built his holdings with a brilliant concept in mind.
If the station was large enough in the north south direction, no matter what time of the year there would be water somewhere on the property. It worked.
He also sold a 25% stake in BHP for 1200 quid, when he died it was worth far mare than his total wealth, far more.
Also he could move his cattle from Queensland to South Australia without crossing anyone else's property.
At the age of 15 in 1939 my dad worked as the cook's off-sider for 12 months droving cattle along that route.
Something that really weirded me out was when you said that the temperature regularly hits 55c on a cattle farm … that’s the temperature that we will cook a joint of beef at the restaurant I work at so it’s a nice rosy rare-medium rare, so I can only assume that these cows are walking around basically precooked
Can hit. Not regularly hits. It can hit -20 in winter here in Michigan. But I think that's literally happened like 4 days in my 36 years of life.

@@drcgaming4195 does it better than most, half the cunts go and say that every day its 50C here, or that anything above 30C is blisteringly hot, no inbetween.
Medium rare isn't cooked. :D
If it's any consolation, the record temperature ever recorded in Australia is slightly under 51 degrees.
I've gone higher with thermometers in my car, but it's irrelevant. Point is, don't leave anything in enclosed spaces.
My dad once worked as a stockman at Alexandria Station which at the time was even bigger, biggest farm in the world. 11,000 Square miles.
But a law was passed limiting how much Australian land could be owned by overseas parties and half the station got sold off. Its still the 3rd biggest station in Australia, but not what it used to be.
Good video, the audio mastering was a bit odd on this one, you sounded rather distant for some reason.

It started like that but got progressively back to normal as the video run. Some EQ problem or something.
As someone who lives on the North Shore and has been to Wahroonga station many times, the mention caught me so off guard.

Lets hear more about this "Australian Language".
Amazing video, really informative and engaging! Just be careful, at 1:20 you said the indigenous Australians (Aboriginals) had lived on this land for centuries. The actual number is closer to 50,000 to 60,000 years, making it correct to say millennia instead of centuries.

Also, it seems that your average MPV (mispronunciation per video) goes way up with Australian content, might be worth getting an Australian in to run through the script with you whenever you're talking about us (happy to provide that help if you don't know any Australians).
I second both of these. Also, no part of the Australian continent has ever been ceded by the First Peoples who lived here for tens of millennia. So if we're going to talk ownership, then "Always Was, Always Will Be Aboriginal land".
@@byrongsmith Look I have no skin in this game, but land doesn't need to be ceded in a treaty for you to lose ownership of it. If you can't defend your land with military strength, then the land belongs to whatever stronger power that wants it. That's how land has shifted ownership over millennia in our planet. Conquest and Resettlement are not unique to Australia or even in the context of European settler colonies. Look at present-day Ukraine for example, the land is only Ukrainian if they can defend it with blood sweat and tears. If they lose the war, then Russia will roll in and then the land shifts ownership irrespective of anyone "ceding" any land.
@@thekrakenrises9040 There are more forms of strength than lethal violence. And more ways to belong to land than killing anyone who questions your right to have stolen it.

3:25 Lake Eyre is pronounced like air (yeah I don't know how that spelling makes that pronunciation), normally it's empty but it does have a yacht club.
My completely uniformed guess is:
"Ey" is pronounced like the letter A
British English thinks "-re" should be pronounced like "er" for some reason.
Slur those together and it's basically pronounced the same as "air".
I worked in a cattle station for 6 months in Australia, one of my favourite experiences ever. Thank you for bringing back memories

It was so weird hearing you talk about the way we run properties, have mail delivered, and small rural town economies like it was something incredible, but it's exactly the same arrangement as my grandparent's 270,000acres in western NSW and my close friend's 480,000acres (though it's technically 8 properties) in central QLD.
Fun fact... Coober Pedy sits on top of the Arckaringa Basin which is an oil reserve some estimates say is arguably larger than Saudi . It went suspiciously quiet after the study though
I remember driving through this property on a drive to see Lake Eyre, I remember seeing a cow that was bigger than our 4x4. This cow was absolutely massive!
what type of 4x4 was it
I went to Darwin High School, the "Tank" at the school provided water for the abattoirs (obviously before it was a school). One of the stations that provided cattle for the abattoir was the VRD, which about 100 years ago was about 50% bigger than Anna Creek.
I also recall when in Geraldton my kids talking to another child at a BBQ and the child saying they got the beef from their station at it was 1000 acres and then the mother mentioned actually it was 1000km2. Just a small one.
Oh Sam, Sam, Sam you disappoint me and make me laugh at the same time! You need to come to the land down under and learn how words are pronounced. Lake Eyre is a good example, Eyre is pronounced like the word air. We do have very harsh and unforgiving environment especially the further inland you go. It is amazing how these station work with so few people and very few resources. The stations also really do highlight the size of our island nation that people from Europe and even the Americas just don’t understand.
Honestly, just call someone here. I felt like the first half of the video was just trying to annoy us with that (I know it's his thing, but my god does it trigger me).
i think they contract extra hands during things like musters. Station owners can contract aviation companies to help with herding. Then the pilots work for another station a few days later when the job is done.
But they also have dogs, which really reduces their need for people. Dogs can do a huge amount of work for almost free.
someone caught a shark in Lake Eyre!

Actually just came back from a holiday where we stopped at Coober Pedy, it's wild that the town exists. There's a decent amount of opal there, but it's also the only town on the way to Alice Springs once you're past port Augusta. No phone reception most of the way there, and even the Roadhouses along the way are spaced out hundreds of kilometres apart from each other.
Dude, I absolutely love your videos, but I need to give you this feedback…As an Australian, this video was hard to watch, with the gross mispronunciations of almost every place name. I’ve heard this in your other Australian-based videos too, which was also grinding my gears. I can only assume this is true for all your videos of foreign places. It might be worth checking with a local on how to pronounce local places or words, I think it will increase the quality/impact of your videos so much more. Keep up the great content, thank you!

Hi, I used to live there back when SK owned it in the early 2010s. I was only five when we left it to go to the neighboring station Innamicka but that's also sold to we are one of the remaining few cattle stations left under the original SK brand. I lived on its outstation the Peak, my Dad used to run it. Its owned by teh Willaims cattle company now and we are really great friends with them they are really nice people. It is truly the end of an era.
But yet land where I live still in Australia manages to be $1m+ per 400m2
So the latest Netflix series Territory is based on this cattle station?
Lake Eyre is pronounced "air" and it is no longer called that. It has gone back to it's indigenous name.

People who aren't from Australia (particularly Western Australia), Russia or Canada find it difficult to grasp how unbelievably vast, empty and remote these countries are. The cattle stations are absolutely enormous here, to the point where helicopters are often used for mustering.

Different climate
46 % tropical and some equatorial a whole lot of subtropical

I am not sure where the person who put the video together got the 55 degrees centigrade (144 degrees Fahrenheit) figure from. Temperatures of this magnitude are comparable to what you may get in Furnace Creek in the US but to my knowledge we’ve never seen these sorts of temperatures here in Oz. Sure, Australians are used to summer heat, but most only have to endure the occasional day over 40 Celsius (104 Fahrenheit). On January 13 2022, though, the temperature peaked at 50.7 C (123.3 F) in Onslow, a small Western Australian (WA) town around 100 km (62 miles) from Exmouth [on the western coast of West Australia. The town actually sits right next to the ocean, which usually provides cooling. By contrast, the infamously hot WA town of Marble Bar has only reached 49.6 C (121.3 F) last summer, despite its inland location. If confirmed, the Onslow temperature would equal Australia’s hottest on record set in Oodnadatta, South Australia, in January 1960. It would also mark only the fourth day over 50 C (122 F) for an Australian location since reliable observations began. So, Ian, when you and your family do finally travel to Australia, rest assured you are not going to see 55 degrees anywhere except perhaps inside a car with all the doors closed and the A/C turned off during a heat wave.
There is no official weather station in the basin of Kati Thanda, however in basins like this it is possible to higher temperatures. This is particularly the case due to the high level of reflection from the salt when the lake is dry.
Hey a suggestion for another gigantic farm would be Monette farms in Saskatchewan. They have a very interesting story and own land all over North America
