Notorious? Poor Ned was a working-class lad of an oppressed minority that got pushed too far by corrupt colonial troopers. He stood up against oppression and British imperialism, and as such, was one of the first 'Australian' heroes.
I'm a Swedish person and I feel the same way about seeing my country represented. Additional shock value if whoever is paying attention is doing it well enough to *not* get us confused with Norway, Denmark, Finland, Switzerland or the last porno they saw featuring blond women.

Eye Wood Yeah that's true, I was thinking that it could maybe include parts of his childhood when his father's arrested and he has to try to make a living at a young age to feed his family
Fun Fact: During the Syria-Lebanon campaign of ww2, there was an Australian cavalry unit named after Ned Kelly. It was called " The Kelly Gang " and would go on to fight for 3 weeks throughout Syria.
As an Australian, it always surprises me when the outside world takes an interest in our history. Most of the time, its an uphill battle just to make sure the rest of the world remembers we exist.
Wait, wait ,wait. Just been reading the comments. Is this *really* a story about a *real life* 1800s Australian steampunk Iron Man? Okay, Australia just won history. I've seen enough.
Grizabeebles No reactors in his chest and he can't fly, but he fights evil in a suit of iron, earns a lot of money, have a good but controversial public image, and have problems with alcohol, close enough?
Fucking right?? Australians are something else. Everything is trying to kill them and they're just calling those things cunts and laughing while easily dealing with those things. Different breed of human. Also can never tell what's real and what's not with them. Even Google is like, I dunno man, that sorta sounds real. It's not Google, it's not real; they're just geniuses at smooth talking.
I'd make a fallout game in Australia inspired by the film "On the Beach" a famous film and book which kinda helped invent the post apocalyptic genre. In it the world has a nuclear war and Australia is left untouched because nobody cares about the southern hemisphere. I'd make an Australian Fallout therefore like Mad Max 1 rather then 3 and 4, where there's still a pre-war government and infrastructure but it's all collapsed and struggling to fight against the raiders and mutants that keep attacking them when they don't have fuel for their vehicles or money to pay the police.
Surprised Bethesda hasn't made such a dedication yet. Besides that one factory in Fallout 4 where a leader of a Raider faction was wearing Power Armour but still.
...Are you serious. Sitting up on top of the cliff to make plans, in BROAD DAYLIGHT? In plain sight?! WOW those two are hopeless. I'm eager to see how this gets turned around. XD
Yay for Australian History! As an Australian, this makes me really happy. We learned about Ned Kelly and Bushrangers in Primary School, but not in a whole lot of detail. It'll be interesting to hear this channel's take on the subject.
aquacamel it could also just be that accents (and regional pronunciation) is hard. I'm a Sydney-sider, and still can't properly pronounce many regional town names properly.
This is one of my favorite stories ever since I've heard of the man himself, it's interesting to hear Ned's story as a bushranger but rather a less hostile one. This is a great story for people who aren't in Australia to learn the history and story behind Ned Kelly and his team of 4.
TheScwall The Australian government would ban it based on the fact if features bushrangers. The Victorian government did it once, they can do it again.
Yeah, whenever you talk about currency from a past era, you need to mention a rough sum adjusted for inflation. I have a rough translation of 110 pounds modern pounds to a modern pound, so 9,570 pounds now for 87 pounds then, or ~$12,000, though when you are talking about inflation from this far out, it is hard to make a complete comparison. The relative costs of different products vary wildly over time so what you compare it to is hard to manage (not to mention regional variations in price). I'd probably put error bars on the order of thousands. Still, it is a crapload of money for a poor, starving, farmer.
True, but it helps to put it into perspective of just HOW much money it is. Like, is 87 dollars equivalent to several hundred euro's? Several thousands? tens of thousands? It also helps understand other characters when they interact with that amount of money. When someone lights their cigar with 100 dollar bills in current money, they're a rich showoff. When they do it in old timey money, they're a lunatic who literally burns entire fortunes.
Yeah 87 pounds back then would be somewhere around $3000.00 now but remember there was no minimum wage back then and products would cost differently. for example, there would have been way more people cutting down trees so the amount of money he would have got from a tree would probably only be something like 50 pence. It's all about supply and demand.
you know what this taught me. 1.The death penalty and job discrimination against former criminals exacerbates crime. 2.Welfare for the impoverished and public education reduces crime. 3. The less money a family has, the more children they will have.
xenoblad With 1 I would argue that it's overuse of the death penalty. During this period n British the use of hanging for non-violent crimes was being phased out. In fact, it had already come down from the era of the "Bloody Code" of the Georgian and Regency periods where 200+ crimes were punishable by death (including several types of theft, impersonating a Chelsea pensioner, buggery, arson and rape). The biggest example would be transport to Australia in the first place. That said, even into the post war era killing a police officer, murder by shooting and killing someone during an armed robbery guaranteed a death sentence. Some conservative pundits argued once hanging was effectively abolished in Britain in the 1960s that the armed robbery rate whether through the roof (although the stagflation of the 1970s and the fact wages were paid in cash at have had something to do with it) as the deterrent factor had been removed. That said, you do have a reasonable point about the need for some form of safety net for the poor.
sander heutink sometimes they're not IMO. I feel ok not counting Jeffery Dahmer as a person. You can only collect the decapitated heads of raped boys for so long before rehabilitation becomes a waste of time. I wouldn't kill him,but a life sentence seems warranted there at a minimum.
I love this. Korea has tales of hero generals fending off the Japanese, the Russians of a their old Queens and Tsars. Europe, Asia and the Americas are littered with tales of empires and countries past. Meanwhile, the best tale Australia has to offer is some dude on a farm that went off and stole some stuff.
1800s Australia is basically pockets of settlement around a harsh and isolated frontier. Indigenous society was always hunter/gatherer, so basically Ned Kelly's life takes place during the first period of notably rapid growth in Australian society. It's an interesting period of Australian history because many of the foundations of the future country are laid down, and it is a time of growing pains to say the least. The Ned Kelly story resonates with Australians for many many reasons, but chiefly he is a figure that shows the tension between the hard legacy of convict transportation, and the nation it was aspiring to become.
One of the oldest movies we still have, and the first narrative feature film is "The Story of the Kelly Gang", filmed and released in 1906. It was originally over an hour long, but sadly only 17 minutes of it survive to this day (and not a continuous 17 minutes)
So cool to see some Australian history on here! It's not something that gets talked about very much, even in our own country, so thanks for doing this series!
I have been watching this channel for maybe 2 or 3 years, and I'm still amazed at how good everything is, it's easy to tell the amount of work the people at Extra Credit put into their videos please never stop making these videos I love them
Just so you know convicts did not wear black and white stripped uniforms. In fact the one you showed is actually more of an American one. Most likely he would have worn 'slops' which where cheap and poorly made clothing or continued to where what they wore in there own country. Plus the British prison uniform were either stripped vertically with thin stripes much like pinstripe suits or had large "Broad arrows" on them to signify there where prisoners.
Yes I love Ned Kelly, thanks for doing some aussie history. It's easy to forget our story isn't simply kidnappings, segregation and genocide. Though some forget those things too.
You guys should do John Moses Browning. The world's greatest gunsmith who couldn't manufacture his renowned firearms, whose patents and products were so revolutionary, they shaped firearms as we know them today. Would be neat, I think.
A fact so few people seem to remember, is that a lot of these legendary career criminals....were mostly just inept. But hell, better to be lucky than good, right?
JenxRodwell mm, you’re right. In a world nowhere near as connected or as capable of cohesive action as today’s, many criminal endeavors became legend when they weren’t so much intelligent as they were lucky
His story is very similar to that of Carmine Crocco, a highwayman that scatterd southern Italy in the first decades after the unity for fight again the rich man and the piedmountese
I love how the first ever episode you do about australia isnt about anzac cove and galipoli. Nor is it about the australian soldiers in WWII, nor is it even about the hilarious Emu Wars. No, the first and so far only bit of australian history we are learning is about a criminal. I love it.
Ah, our very own Robin Hood legend. ... For some reason. Even though I don't think he did anything much beyond try and improve his own personal situation. Ned Kelly's position in Australian culture is actually pretty weird...
well during a bank robbery he burned all their records of everyone who owned them money, personal loans and house mortgages alike. I'd say that's pretty altruistic.
@@Hebdomad7 Popular with the people? REALLY. His hostages were petrified of being murdered like he did to the three police officers. At Faithfull Creek station, when a man stood up to Kelly, he put the barrel of his revolver into his mouth and threatened to shoot him dead. At Jerilderie, he threatened to shoot the police officer's wife AND HER THREE CHILDREN dead if she didn't do exactly as he ordered. She suffered mentally for the rest of her life. Popular with the people? Be buggered he was. He was loathed by the people. Your understanding of this vicious murdering mongrel is pathetic.
He struck fear into the Colonial Authorities, Military and Police and some business men, but the ordinary working people may not of felt the same level of fear,
*SPOILER ALERT* As you'll find out, that's very subjective. Some say it was a selfish desire to have his name remembered, others say that he did it out of pure necessity and as a response to police injustice.

Tfw you forget to factor inflation and 87 pounds doesn't sound like a lot.
You forget that by the old system of pence shillings etc. A pound is worth a LOT of money
Yeah, whenever you talk about currency from a past era, you need to mention a rough sum adjusted for inflation. I have a rough translation of 110 pounds modern pounds to a modern pound, so 9,570 pounds now for 87 pounds then, or ~$12,000, though when you are talking about inflation from this far out, it is hard to make a complete comparison.

also the Kellys where a poor family, even if 87 was a moderate sum it would have seemed ridiculously huge to Ned.
Yeah 87 pounds back then would be somewhere around $3000.00 now but remember there was no minimum wage back then and products would cost differently. for example, there would have been way more people cutting down trees so the amount of money he would have got from a tree would probably only be something like 50 pence.

Who did you think owned those pigs Ned stole?
Walpole made the boat that his dad was sent on.

It should be pretty easy since Ned's dad was a convict sent to Aus from Ireland. Somehow Walpole or a relative is bound to be responsible.
I do, but I don't want to spoil it for you. ;)
At least give us a hint... Is there a ledger involved?
I love how the first ever episode you do about australia isnt about anzac cove and galipoli. Nor is it about the australian soldiers in WWII, nor is it even about the hilarious Emu Wars. No, the first and so far only bit of australian history we are learning is about a criminal. I love it.
I've read your comment
'he vowed to never go bush ranging again'

Join us as Ned Kelly goes bush ranging again !
Very well sir I want deeply
Trb materials quizzes include sir
There's a bar in my town called ned kelly's that celebrates this man. Fantastic bar with 100 taps.
My family were neighbours of the Kelly's, though they tried to rip off Ned and his bro, so they legally stole their donkey.
Yep. This happened
"I am Ned Kelly" sounds like a line that would repeat often in song. Like like a chorus, but more like each stanza ends in it.
But who did Red steal pigs from!?!?!? *was it Walpole*
Nice job ending it like an it's always sunny episode begins, Ned: ILL NEVER GO BUSHRANGEING AGAIN! *title card pops up* "Ned goes bushrangeing again"
Gee, Katharina the Great, the Punic Wars, the healing of Cholera- and than this???? An australian Outlaw??? Na, please keep telleing the grand story!
BillHimmel not all good stories are grand stories
A boy fell in the river ... it fills you with determination
Ah, our very own Robin Hood legend.
... For some reason. Even though I don't think he did anything much beyond try and improve his own personal situation.
Ned Kelly's position in Australian culture is actually pretty weird...
well during a bank robbery he burned all their records of everyone who owned them money, personal loans and house mortgages alike. I'd say that's pretty altruistic.
When he'd hold up pub there would be free drink for all the locals as well. Popular with the people. But not the bankers or publicans.
Those are some interesting details I wasn't aware of. That makes a lot more sense of why he ended up with the reputation he did.
@@Hebdomad7 Popular with the people? REALLY. His hostages were petrified of being murdered like he did to the three police officers.
At Faithfull Creek station, when a man stood up to Kelly, he put the barrel of his revolver into his mouth and threatened to shoot him dead.
At Jerilderie, he threatened to shoot the police officer's wife AND HER THREE CHILDREN dead if she didn't do exactly as he ordered. She suffered mentally for the rest of her life.
Popular with the people? Be buggered he was. He was loathed by the people. Your understanding of this vicious murdering mongrel is pathetic.
Now this is a story worthy of a video game adaption.
Ned was the third eldest , not the eldest son
He struck fear into the Colonial Authorities, Military and Police and some business men, but the ordinary working people may not of felt the same level of fear,
What got him to go bushranging agai- Was it +Robert Walpole ?
*SPOILER ALERT*
As you'll find out, that's very subjective. Some say it was a selfish desire to have his name remembered, others say that he did it out of pure necessity and as a response to police injustice.
Maaaaaaybe. ;)
Robert Walpole DAMN YOU ROBERT!!!!!!
Always got your hand in things!
Nicholas Roberts Whoa! Didn't expect to see you over here! How's it going?
Airmanon Going pretty good. I too was surprised to see you here
I was not expecting this part of history to be seen on EH, I'm pleasantly surprised.
Australia has suddenly become more interesting.
Its nice to have a different kind of historical figure for once and a new location.
Most people won't see this, but if you do, have a good day. Not trying to get attention, just trying to cheer you up.
You guys really know how to get someone really excited to watch a video
Why did we get this?? If we have to do Australia then we should do the great Emu War
The Aussies are still too ashamed they lost that one.
Hardly ashamed. That was a right lark. I have never seen anyone ashmed. The bigger problem is calming them of their hysterics.
@@joluoto you try and catch an emu punk
You explained this better than my primary school did.
I love my country. A national hero is a criminal who just found some armour
he made the armour. he didn't find it
