I am glad you clarified that as even though I have not been there I was sure it was Mt Gambier as I have a work colleague from there who has mentioned it several times.
Except everyone not from south Australia thinks the state is 100 years behind the rest of us so has never heard of it 😊 I’d really like to visit now though…
Creepy people there, on the drugs, deviants are part of their community biggest child molesting jail there they say that pedophiles are normal people.. Mt Gambier is a shit hole
Happy Arvo Ryan. What I love most about your reactions is that you actually GOOGLE stuff in the middle of the reactions. If more people did this we would spend a lot less time yelling at our screens!
I sooooo agree! I quickly get over 'reaction channels' where the presenters are just content to remain ignorant ad infinitum. If you've 'reacted' to three different videos in a week of a street interviewer asking "which country is the Panama canal in?" and you _still don't know_ it's in f***ing Panama, I'm going to unsubscribe, rather than glass my screen with a bavarian crystal whiskey tumbler.
What's cool and also kinda weird is that lots of Aussies are learning about some of these places in their own country for the first time -from these reactor 'visits'. We have a Pink Lake? Wave Rock is made of Granite? - For some reason I always thought it was Sandstone. Now I'M going to have to Google it. 😉👍
Hey Ryan. I'm Aussie and I love your reactions to Australia videos, so please don't stop but I think you should react to the Sydney New Years Eve fireworks! I really think you'll love them and as well as the Sydney 2000 Olympic opening. The NYE fireworks are insane.
oh yes the 2000 fireworks, memories, 9pm , traffic stopped on the bridge , just me in the middle. then the midnite ones on the roof of a ferry. some loony wanted im not sure , but hey nye , dont need to arrest someone , ya he went away. life is good sometimes
Harold Holt Base is hardly miles away from anywhere as it is just north of the town of Exmouth in Western Australia. As a side note, Exmouth is near to Cape Range National Park which features some of the best beaches in the country: check out Turquoise Bay for instance. The base is indeed just a communications base, the layout is necessitated because of the very low frequencies it transmits at, mostly to underwater submarines. As for Wittenoom, it is no longer officially listed as a town and only 2-6 people (depending on which list you believe) remain living there effectively off-grid as all services to the town site were cut when it was "killed" as a township officially. Blue asbestos is a fire retardant so was used in just about everything that could get hot, like car brakes, as a fire retardant in buildings, trains and such like. It was commonly used in asbestos fencing. It has killed many thousands of people. There are many pink lakes in Australia of which Lake Hillier is perhaps the best known, although hard to get to as it is offshore. There are easier ones to get to in Western Australia.
Agree, Very Low Frequency = Very tall antenna and arrays. It is a shared and operated AUS/ USA facility to communicate with Submarines in the Indian Ocean.
yes ryan . rain water is better than tap water . theres no metals or fluoride or chlorine . and the small amount of contaminants in it are harmless . and can be removed by simple filtration .
Except that most rain water collected comes from people's rooftops, and birds poop on roof tops, which means most household collected rainwater contains potentially harmful bacteria and viruses, which filtration won't remove. In a fresh water lake or river, animals drink, pee, poop, and sometimes die and decay in it, and it can contain metals and other pollutants from the ground around it, including pollution run off from nearby areas, again, not the best water to be drinking without treating it properly first. And there very well can be metals and other pollutants in rain water straight from the sky. In some parts of the world where air pollution is very high, the pollutants make the rain water rather acidic and in some cases even mildly toxic. I'd rather take my chances with proven to be safe very low levels of fluoride and chlorine than the unknown potential pollutants in untreated water of any kind.
@@durv13 I've only had rainwater most of my life and really struggle with the stench and taste of some city/town water. Even showering is not as nice in hard, alkaline, chlorinated water.
@@anserbauer309 100% agree . i leave my drinking water for 2 days before i drink it , cant stand the chemical taste . and i never noticed it in my showers here in nsw . but when i went to QLD i could definitely smell it . and it made me itchy .
I'm so proud to say that I went to Wave Rock as a child and I climbed all over it! We took a ton of photos and I remember, even as a child, I felt such an amazing energy from this unnaturally natural place Annnd I've also been to the big open pit gold mine Annnd the pink lake! Annnd Shell Beach! Annnd I've seen some amazing rock art in the Northern Territory! Starting to feel quite lucky whilst watching this list 🦘🇦🇺🦘
This makes up for last tourist trap video. Note: to potential visitors. It would take a year of driving to see all these sites. I've seen most of them. I travelled the continent in a Holden HQ panel van some thirty years ago. It's the best way to see oz.
About the limestone under Shell Beach. Shells are calcium carbonate and that particular limestone is purely the shells crushed under the accumulation of their own weight. Most beach sand is made up of quartz and silica from eroded rock and crushed shell only makes up a small proportion of sand.
Lake McKenzie is a 'perched' lake, which means it contains only rainwater, no groundwater, is not fed by streams and does not flow to the ocean. The sand and organic matter at the base of the lake form an impervious layer, preventing rainwater from draining away. The sand here is pure, white silica and is not only beautiful to look at but feels beautifully soft to walk on. The sand acts as a filter, giving the water its clarity and helping to make the water so pure it can support very little life.
The purpose of a hexagon is to have 6 equal sides, which makes intellectually devoid humans make up all sorts of conspiratorial reasons why it exists and what it means. It's well known what makes Hillier Lake pink - the microorganisms that live in it. It's not the only pink lake in Australia, just the most well-known. Rain and clouds don't filter pollutants, they collect them and drop them to the ground in the form of acid rain, which is much less of a problem for Australia than most other places, except when our skies are full of bushfire smoke.
That does not represent all Australia, it’s a dumb comedy show, if it represents u, go back to ur trailer park, watch it and lose some more brain cells, the rest of us are fine without it thanks
We have many weird place names in Aus. After you visit Lake Disappointment, you can visit Mount Misery, Cape Tribulation, and Mount Despair. Then make a quick trip to Desolation and Lost Hope. Sounds like an enticing itinerary for a tour. We also have towns called Banana and Orange...
6:30 There are still 3 people in Wittnoon, It is mainly cleaned up, however, still too dangerous to go through, I always go around and take the Newman road if going inland.
Hey Ryan. As everyone has mentioned already the sink hole is in South Australia, where I live, several hour drive for me but I went last year, its sooo cool.....
We have a lot of great sites in Australia, trouble is they are all a million miles apart, if you are on Holidays you have to pick ONE and leave it at that, Trying to visit the Great Barrier Reef, Ayers Rock and the Pink lake all in one Holiday would be impossible, even if you had your own Private Jet you still wouldn't be able to stay long enough to enjoy it, It is BY FAR the greatest country on Earth in which to live your life!
The narrator sounds a bit drunk in places 🤔☺️ As for Uluru, it's even more amazing close up, with craters, crevices and even a waterfall (yeah, a waterfall in the desert!) Climbing was banned altogether a few years back. The narrator got a couple of names wrong. Coober "Pedy" is pronounced "peedy". "Fraser" Island is pronounced the way it's spelled, not "Frasier".
Apparently in addition to all the wildlife that can kill you. The landscape wants in on it too. It looks like a very dangerous place to wander around drunk with pits and asbestos among other strange things.
the ship HMAS Karangi is in Sydney .. besides a nice park Bicentenial Park .. lots of photos have been taken .. you can see a bird hide close by where you can see some nice bird life !
Karangi isn't near Bicentennial park it's near Rhodes, it's in the Parramatta River so if you were to go to Ryder Blvd and look out across the river toward parra you'd be looking in the correct direction Nowhere near Bicentennial Park so toward Parra perhaps the Homebush, Lidcombe area
Happy Arvo Ryan, a few corrections... yes, sadly, all rainwater is polluted; since the advent of chemicals used in farming etc, many chemicals evaporate with H2O, proving this happened when they have found DDT in Antarctica, it has never been used there. Also, Cooper Pedy is pronounced Cooper Pee Dee... not 'peddy'. Been there ...for one night! Sky looks great, but don't wander around at night, so many drilling holes you can literally disappear, takes a long time to find you... there are signs! The pink lake... one scratch and all that salt is gonna hurt you! I've never heard of anyone swimming in it... and that is the only attraction there! Better to go see the adorable quokkas! seee yaah!
Rainbow beach in Queensland is really cool, right next to Fraser Island mentioned in the video, which is completely made of sand. Tangalooma wrecks as well.
Tangalooma wrecks are on Moreton Island south of Caloundra. Rainbow Beach is on the mainland north of Caloundra and close to the bottom of Fraser Island
#7 is close to where I work. Its really rather pretty with all the mangrove trees growing out of the ship. Its a favourite for photographers to get to.
For number 12, I remember I randomly found it in google earth, one day I was just looking around and I zoomed in and found it, no one I knew had ever seen it and I live in Western Australia
Pink Lake is near Esperance on south coast of WA. Great place with pure white beaches and lots of fishing. Only 10 hour drive from Perth. If you take the right roads you can visit wave rock on the way. Harold Holt is 1000 + kms north of Perth. WA is great state to visit.
Have a look at Monte Cristo in Junee, NSW - a very scary mansion that is said to be haunted with some mysterious occurrences / sightings. This was the town my mother grew up in whilst my dad was living in the next town.
Ha! I went and stayed there with some friends about 15 years ago. The most beautiful older couple owned it and ran a bnb there one or two nights a week. The largest private collection of Victorian antiques in Australia. I didn’t find it scary, but it was a great place and the “ghost” tour was fun. Thanks for that trip down amnesia lane. ❤️
@@belindareid3059 Always wanted to get to & have a look myself. I was once at Jenolan Caves, NSW & we went on a night tour where they pointed to a room booked by a couple in the group. This was supposed be haunted by her spirit LOL the honeymooners were having second thoughts to stay.
There is one place in Australia we passed many many years ago when I was a child, can not remember the exact location, travelling to or from Victoria / South Australia and in the one location was a bright Pink lake like this on this video, as well right next to it was a bright Blue lake with the same glorious appearance as this pink lake, and next to both of them lakes was also a Green lake which was also as bright glorious appearance, all 3 next to each other. They looked incredible, only do not remember where they were as I was only a young child at the time.
@@davidpacker9786 I do not know. Thank you for that suggestion town, looking around there on a map thing with satellite images and street view, but can not seem to find what I remember seeing. Might be in that area, I do not know. We were on bitumen road. Going from memory, do not know which direction we were going, but I remember it was on the left side in what look to be a rural area as we were going down in a decline direction on the road and the road was going slightly to the right, the lakes were somewhat at the top about 100 meters or so away from the road on our left hand side. That could also be more or less as distance from when we were children to adulthood can be vastly different. terrible directions and description I know, thats what I remembered from when I was a child. Looking back I remember also again seeing the 3 distinct coloured lakes right next to each other.
It always amuses me that the videos that are docos (documentaries to a non Aussie) about these places are usually done by people who are not natives of the country. lol Ummm The Umpherson sink hole is in Mt Gambier South Australia. I would take the rest of the information with a grain of salt after that stuff up. Yes I have actually been there many years ago. It's definitely a place to go and visit. He is talking about the dreamtime which is the "religion" of Aboriginals. Coober Pedy pronounced Coober Peedy. They all get that one wrong. You would think rainwater was pure but have you heard of acid rain? Not as prevalent now because of less pollution. Here at least. Acid rain was causing the German Black Forest to die. Yes Ryan, we have seen the evolution of man t shirt. We are a fairly advanced society here.
I'm from Western Australia, not quite too far from Exmouth and the Harold Holt Comm station, I have never heard of any of these rumours about it being a top secret weapon base. In fact, the US Navy isn't there now and I believe it's run by civilian contractors?
I believe these rocks form by the rock eroding at ground level, as the earth eroded away it left this effect on the rock... 🤷♂and Coober Pedy is pronounced Coober Peedy. Fraser Island is a large sand island, thats a beautiful place. I hope to visit there in my 4wd one day
Dude, if people want to give you money... let them. Your reactions are fun to watch. I definitely see this channel growing. P.S. I've come across the channel you featured here. I avoid it like the plague. That dude's voice is annoying as heck! EDIT: The T-shirt is clever, by the way. I'd buy one but I'm renovating my overpriced house-shaped tent in the middle of Victoria. Lol.
Do yourself a Favour and watch "Every Centrelink Worker Ever".... by Garn. There are a couple of others to watch as well. Aussie humor that might not be on the American frequency.....
Harold E. Holt base in exmouth is not that cool up close. Just a bunch of tall webby towers. Fuck that, go around the peninsula to go see the turtles lmao.
Those paintings in the caves are of yowies not aliens . Big eyes and the head is surrounded by hair. A yowie is Australian Bigfoot. Maybe they are aliens.
the rock can change a thousand times in a year. the rock is sacred , but now just a money maker, central oz just another place to make money from tourists. but still they get lost and die , its a strange world we live in.
My wife & I have been watching you mate You really crack us up🤣 He’s a bit crass but you need to check out Issac Butterfield his channel he’s pretty mainstream blokey for an Aussie & says it like it is he talks about sh#t towns Also might want to check out history on Ned Kelly.. he’s massive Also if no-one has mentioned we have Texas here as well in the state or Queensland
Love the shirt Ryan. I might get one. I have to echo Dr_ KAP here, I cringe on videos that are going to teach people about Australia, but are narrated by American or British people, they are often wrong on many levels, but I know you don't just accept everything, you actually look it up if it sounds sketchy, love you for that!
Cooper Pedy. Not pronounced "Pedy" like pedicure. It's pronounced "Peedy" as in wee/pee. Also "p" in Cooper not pronounced. So you say: Koo-buh-pee-dee Went there about 48 years ago as a teen. Bought a cool opal ring, fabulous place.
The sink hole is in SA not WA. 3190 kilometres from where the yank said it was. Probably best to view content such as this produced by at least an Australian.
Hi Ryan. Yeah I know I'm nagging but could you please, please do a video on the Australian band Redgum and the Song 'I was only 19'. At this time with the way things are going in Europe I feel like there's a lot of young men being sent off to fight another man's war.
I agree. There is a clip on "gypsaduo" site. On that site is "I am Australian-Anzac version". Bowled me over when I recognised my Dad in a photo of Aussies moving to Greece. We seem to be involved in other peoples wars and things aren't looking good. Show a couple of these Anzac clips . Also one on the light horse in WWI if one exists. From an ex-natio.
This is going to date me, but i remember the first time i saw Redgum perform “i was only 19” live and it really got me as does there song “brown rice and kerosene”. I still listen to them and love their music
I've been to Wave Rock, and I can confirm that it isn't just a clever camera angle. It honest-to-goodness looks just like it looks in photos - a massive wave. It's basically a huge weirdly shaped cliff (low at front, higher land behind it), that looks just like a real breaking wave. - really awesome to see.
Loving your reactions 😊Have you seen/reacted to Kath & Kim yet? Absolute CLASSIC Aussie humour! You’ll love i! 👌😎 Glad your enjoying Hey Hey/Red Faces!

For number 12, I remember I randomly found it in google earth, one day I was just looking around and I zoomed in and found it, no one I knew had ever seen it and I live in Western Australia
Young fella : if you’re eve in AUSTRALIA in the end of August; take the time for the Birdsville races first week in September.
Wave rock has a small concrete barrier that follows a contour near the top of the rock to catch water for local water supply
There is also a pink lake at poet Gregory in the midwest of wa
Pink Lake is near Esperance on south coast of WA. Great place with pure white beaches and lots of fishing. Only 10 hour drive from Perth. If you take the right roads you can visit wave rock on the way. Harold Holt is 1000 + kms north of Perth. WA is great state to visit.

It always amuses me that the videos that are docos (documentaries to a non Aussie) about these places are usually done by people who are not natives of the country. lol
Ummm The Umpherson sink hole is in Mt Gambier South Australia. I would take the rest of the information with a grain of salt after that stuff up. Yes I have actually been there many years ago. It's definitely a place to go and visit.
He is talking about the dreamtime which is the "religion" of Aboriginals.
Coober Pedy pronounced Coober Peedy. They all get that one wrong.
You would think rainwater was pure but have you heard of acid rain? Not as prevalent now because of less pollution. Here at least. Acid rain was causing the German Black Forest to die.
Yes Ryan, we have seen the evolution of man t shirt. We are a fairly advanced society here.
You should see the Karri Valley south of western australia.
Hi mate, the Wanjina rock art has been dated and is estimated to be 4000 years old.
There is a giant man "picture" on the ground in Australian outback that is visible from space.
Totally get the t- shirt... awesome!
THE SHIRT-😂
Ayers rock/ Uluru is the largest monolith in the world. A single rock formation.
I'm from Western Australia, not quite too far from Exmouth and the Harold Holt Comm station, I have never heard of any of these rumours about it being a top secret weapon base. In fact, the US Navy isn't there now and I believe it's run by civilian contractors?
Love the tee 😂
There are more pink lakes, there is one at Lochiel in South Australia, north of Adelaide its not that unusual
I've been to Wittenoom back in the 80s.
I believe these rocks form by the rock eroding at ground level, as the earth eroded away it left this effect on the rock... 🤷♂and Coober Pedy is pronounced Coober Peedy. Fraser Island is a large sand island, thats a beautiful place. I hope to visit there in my 4wd one day
The Hex is the base for the radio towers - ex-USA Navy radio site
Sink hole garden is in South Australia not Western Australia.
Yes, Mount Gambier S.E. South Australia. I will be there Friday.
Dude, if people want to give you money... let them. Your reactions are fun to watch. I definitely see this channel growing. P.S. I've come across the channel you featured here. I avoid it like the plague. That dude's voice is annoying as heck!
EDIT: The T-shirt is clever, by the way. I'd buy one but I'm renovating my overpriced house-shaped tent in the middle of Victoria. Lol.
Like the shirt, this video gave me a happy arvo. and a gahday.
Hi Ryan. Enjoying the reactions. Just to help. Arvo isn't happy. You may say, this arvo, tomorrow arvo, Saturday arvo. Keep up the good work.
Do yourself a Favour and watch "Every Centrelink Worker Ever".... by Garn. There are a couple of others to watch as well. Aussie humor that might not be on the American frequency.....
Umpherston Sinkhole is gorgeous, day or night.
The 'narrator' of this odd compile managed to mis pronouce almost every place name. well done. Happy arvo Ryan. :) btw there are many pink lakes ..
Was legit just thinking that ahaha … I’m currently stuck on Coober Pedy 😂
Cool shirt! Might send you something soon.
Mount Gambier is where umphersto n sink hole is mot WA Probably never heard of the Blue Lake either
Hahaha! Tee shirt is really cool.
Wtf. The Sinkhole is 20 minutes from me in Mount Gambier South Australia.
Who ever narrated this needs to do his research Cobber peddy and sink hole in Mt Gambier south Australia
The Umpherston sinkhole is in South Australia not Western Australia
went to wave rock as a kid.. 👍
Great shirt!!
Nice Tshirt 👕😂😮.
Greetings from Lizzy from Australia 🦘.
Love the shirt really funny!
Hey Ryan, I never knew about the secret antenna communications area.
Harold E. Holt base in exmouth is not that cool up close. Just a bunch of tall webby towers. Fuck that, go around the peninsula to go see the turtles lmao.
Can't get your T shirt because the pay up site keeps thinking I live in America . You'd better fix it.
Those paintings in the caves are of yowies not aliens . Big eyes and the head is surrounded by hair. A yowie is Australian Bigfoot. Maybe they are aliens.
Take a look at our national parks. For a change
the rock can change a thousand times in a year. the rock is sacred , but now just a money maker, central oz just another place to make money from tourists. but still they get lost and die , its a strange world we live in.
My wife & I have been watching you mate
You really crack us up🤣
He’s a bit crass but you need to check out Issac Butterfield his channel he’s pretty mainstream blokey for an Aussie & says it like it is he talks about sh#t towns
Also might want to check out history on Ned Kelly.. he’s massive
Also if no-one has mentioned we have Texas here as well in the state or Queensland
Ryan.. Do a reaction to Mt buller snow. in Victoria Australia..have a great arvo mate....and Jas and ya wife.
Love the shirt Ryan. I might get one. I have to echo Dr_ KAP here, I cringe on videos that are going to teach people about Australia, but are narrated by American or British people, they are often wrong on many levels, but I know you don't just accept everything, you actually look it up if it sounds sketchy, love you for that!
Lol. I like the shirt!
I love the shirt, when can we get em?
I think the link in the description works - I haven't gone through the checkout yet but looking at it!
Cooper Pedy. Not pronounced "Pedy" like pedicure. It's pronounced "Peedy" as in wee/pee. Also "p" in Cooper not pronounced. So you say:
Koo-buh-pee-dee
Went there about 48 years ago as a teen. Bought a cool opal ring, fabulous place.
There is no P in Coober :)
@@Michael-ue9li Quite correct Michael.
My bad 😕
Something you may find interesting, is the story of Harold Holt.
th-cam.com/video/2L--ZgqX4o4/w-d-xo.html
The sink hole is in SA not WA. 3190 kilometres from where the yank said it was. Probably best to view content such as this produced by at least an Australian.
ah the blue sky mine... 😔
Its pronounced Coober Peedy by the way though spelt pedy
The sink hole is in South Australia not Western Australia.
I live in Melbourne, Australia & have not been to any of these places, a little too remote & creepy for me 😂
Pardon? Most of the places mentioned are accessed by sealed roads and are near towns?
Hi Ryan. Yeah I know I'm nagging but could you please, please do a video on the Australian band Redgum and the Song 'I was only 19'. At this time with the way things are going in Europe I feel like there's a lot of young men being sent off to fight another man's war.
Or Eric Bogle's live performance of 'And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda'. That always hits me hard.
I agree. There is a clip on "gypsaduo" site. On that site is "I am Australian-Anzac version". Bowled me over when I recognised my Dad in a photo of Aussies moving to Greece. We seem to be involved in other peoples wars and things aren't looking good. Show a couple of these Anzac clips . Also one on the light horse in WWI if one exists. From an ex-natio.
This is going to date me, but i remember the first time i saw Redgum perform “i was only 19” live and it really got me as does there song “brown rice and kerosene”. I still listen to them and love their music
The Umpherston sink hole is actually in Mount Gambier, South Australia not Western Australia and is as beautiful as it looks.
I've been to Wave Rock, and I can confirm that it isn't just a clever camera angle. It honest-to-goodness looks just like it looks in photos - a massive wave. It's basically a huge weirdly shaped cliff (low at front, higher land behind it), that looks just like a real breaking wave. - really awesome to see.
I agree as I've been there many times as a child
ITS HUGE way bigger than I expected when I went
I love how respectful you are about Australia and how willing you are to be corrected.
If you want your tshirt to truly represent Australia the human figure needs to be being swooped by a magpie
The Sink Hole is located Mt Gambier South Australia. Not W.A
Loving your reactions 😊Have you seen/reacted to Kath & Kim yet? Absolute CLASSIC Aussie humour! You’ll love i! 👌😎 Glad your enjoying Hey Hey/Red Faces!
Haha, my favourite line... Look at me, look at me, look at meeeee.
Yessss!
Umpherston sinkhole is actually in South Australia in a town called Mt Gambier, which also has the famous blue lake too.
