Hope you enjoyed the Episode guys!
it is just wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing the adventures!!
You missed a crucial fact about the boab nut. They have one of the highest natural forms of vitamin C found in the wild. Very important to fight off scurvy for those sea faring traveller's! Awesome episodes guys. Glad Les got a nod
Geez man, you shat all over their belief system of the Gwion gwion and their people before the Wandjina and land visitation was restricted east of Cape Londonerry all year. But slid in an aknowledgement of country. When the aboriginal corps hold the key to the gate and want to tell their story themselves this misinfo and pushing the flawed african theory is what gets us locked out unfortunately. The rough dating of gwion gwion, timelines in human history with advancement of watercraft, prolification of boabs unfortunately dont add up. With landbridges through the last glacial maximum, movement of tribes with changes to climate its a bit of a mordern civilisation veiw that aboriginal culture and beliefs could not change in 60,000 years. Look at how much western beliefs have changed in just the last 1000 years. Of course more contemporary tribes would not aknowledge them, they now believe in the wandjina thought to be only 1-4000 years, not the beliefs of the tribes who came before wandjinas. Ask someone living in palestinetoday what they think of christianity theyd probably say its rubbish too. Dig deeper into aboriginal culture of the the Kimberley, stories of Wannalirri and the great floods and things will start to add up and suprisingly line up with geological events throughout the earths history, atleast in the last 20,000 years. However love your channel! Gwion gwion sure are contraversal. Sorry!
Happy Birthday Strick ,the whole series is really coming together ,you can see it is coming more natural for you in front of the camera & you are enjoying passing on knowledge, well done mate .Fran you are the modern version of Valerie Taylor & what a great ambassador for our sport of Spearfishing & conservation,,how you 2 have not been given sponsorship by one of the Spearo gear makers is beyond me ,you 2 are exactly how the sport needs to be portrayed .Great work to all involved
It's not 5here land mate never was they come from Asia.
better than any network product, thank you for taking us with you
Howard springs is a concentration camp. Prove me wrong.
@@PD-we8vf Time and place mate and this isn’t it!!
Very cool guys. Merry Christmas.🎄
Merry Christmas guys, love your video's, keep safe
Truly living the dream
Are there crocs in that area?
This is just up the creek from where the last Ep was filmed.
Thank you for the history lesson... Amazing 💯! Keep up the good work 👍🏼
Some great scenery, love the drone shots.
I was in South Africa on tour 2 years ago, and they have boab trees there exactly the same and can confirm they call them the upside down tree.
The rock art was fascinating, however you commented that they are the oldest living civilisation in the world. It was not a civilisation, Egypt was, Rome was but not indigenous Australia.
It is the oldest continuous living culture in the world.
Keep them coming, look forward to each new vid.
2:03 kind of looks like abandoned rock quarries here in the southern states. Don't know how you and Fran manage to keep upping the quality but this one was master class!!!! You guys make my day every week.
And 2 days this week as an early Xmas pressie!
Frans a legend once again! Great episode as always!
how come the rock art has lasted so long when i need to repaint my house every 10 years ??????
amazing!!! i enjoy everything you do and how you do it. please keep it up.... dont stop. life is so short...... but being a seaman i do know its tuff. take care. Regards Mike..... South Africa wild coast, Transkei
Hi Jack - Nathan here (we met on Scott Reef trip) - An interesting factor in the Bradshaw discussion is also the discussion about the Sahul shelf's exposure above sea level during different ice age events. You can imagine that if during an ice age event the ocean water levels were much lower then the coast line would have been much further out and the Kimberley would have been high country. Imagine how much rock art and history is now covered by the ocean. Hope you and Fran are doing well mate. Cheers.
It takes some kinda BALLS, to go rock climbing in a skirt!!! lol.
Great way to celebrate your birthday.
Les did so much to document so many things always with full respect and permission.
Love your work guys stay safe and travel well.
Cheers Gerard.
Thank you for posting more videos. My family and I love watching you guys and your adventures!
What an extraordinary find. The paranormal activity would be awesome at night, if you're into that. Happy Birthday!!
This may be your most fascinating episode. The Tasmanian tiger painting made me feel a bit misty knowing the story behind its extinction. The Kimberly looks so mysterious and awesome. I appreciate the respect you give the land and indigenous peoples of Australia.Thanks for taking us along!
Love the history lesson 🤘🏼 some pretty interesting stuff. Keep up the awesome work 👌🏼
Had a similar theory when I was a kid - I grew up in the Kimberley, my dad was the Detective up there. My little theory was they started here in the Kimberley (the Boabs and the Africans). My theory was the Africans (Gion Gions) were the result of the first genetic experiments from the Winjinas (aliens). Then they left the Kimberley with the Boab nuts via the ocean currents which run from the Kimberley across to Madagascar and then down the African coast :-) - Far fetched I know hahah.. I was a kid though.
Or you could believe in God and Jesus and not this bullllshiiit
Mmm , well its a theory .
@@PD-we8vf ok so lets thank god and jesus for this.The facts are facts and yours are bullshit.The Boab tree has been around far longer than god and jesus and so have the aborigines.
@@muzzamoose LOL i was like 11 years old
@@mbb12 credit where it’s due - I like your story!
Happy birthday, thanks again for sharing your wonderful experiences. Lucky to have your parents with you. Love from 🇿🇦
Another failed state. How’s that mega inflation?
That ancient landscape, eh? We are just seconds in the time of the world!
Another really awesome video from 2 crazy Aussies!!! You two would be right at the top of my "who I'd want as neighbors" list... I bet there would be some wild talk around a back yard fireplace!!!
Such an amazing landscape! So huge an area of the Kimberly seems to be very flat-lying rock layers with a broad erosion “plateau” that covers thousands of hectares, and the streams with very low gradients pour into salt water bays over waterfalls, but there are no deltas of sand, gravel or cobbles as though the land has only “recently” been lifted above sea level. But the rocks look OLD!! And the iron stains on the rocks also would take a long time to develop along the water courses. Thanks so much for providing the tour of this area, as I know that I will never be able to travel there and see it for myself.
Water selectively eroded straight sheer faced rectangular blocks huh. OK, if Iron stains leach out of reinforced concrete in a matter of years. Cane toads lime calcium petrify in days. Diamonds and most gems are produced in hours. While a good volcano and half decent tsunami will turn it all upside down in a matter of minutes. 🤔
Great video guys loving the rock art history
Best wishes for this coming year 2022, may the wind and the sea take you to new joyful adventures. You are an admirable couple, it must be wonderful to sail with you.
Fill us in on what happened while landing Fran’s Barra. I see a little bit of the rod tip in your hand. Bastard of a thing to happen.
Loving the series. Maybe even better than your Barrier Reef/Cape trip. -Mikey👍🏻🎣🍺🤠
Yep well spotted mate... I had to cut that bit because there was too many four letter words... Basically the rod trip broke in the process of landing the Barra. Haha, cheers mate glad you're enjoying the Series.

Bugger.
WOW, you are on a serious adventure into the wild there. Finding rock art like that, with that mystery, is completely amazing.
One Life, One Search,
Shane
fascinating show ...thank you guys ! and happy birthday
Very impressed with your narration Jack and the content of aerial pics really presents the place well. Keep it up
Those paintings and the assumed age always blows me away. I’ve seen plenty in the Vansittart Bay Area a bit further north. They are very accessible from the beach and well worth a look. Stunning.
The intriguing mystery of the Australian Boab, the Madagascar Boabs, the mainland of Africa, and the Arabian Peninsula Boab is controversial. Watching this brings even more mystery and intrigue to the tree's origin. The possibilities are fascinating. Thank you for the respect you give these iconic treasures.♥
Les has a better hat on when he told the exact same info about the Bradshaw's and the story about the boab tree mate 😜 keep up the great work. Envious of the places you're going!
Well happy belated birthday... Beautiful location... thanks for sharing...
I know the secret of the mysterious rock art. Rebellious Teenagers! What with the fancy headwear and costumes no wonder the parents objected and painted over it!
Lol
Awesome work buddy have a Merry Christmas anyway catch you next year
Interesting, and as usual, magnificent scenary, thanks for sharing.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY.......MAGIC VID
Absolutely love the history you bring into the episodes. Such wonderful and respectful storytelling of Australian history. Keep at it legends, your channel inspires me to get out more and explore this beautiful country!
The problem is the hystery he told isn't fact modern day aborigine arnt Australian natives they come here from Asia when the sea was not as deep.
Were I live there's a grave with 40 native Australian ppl in it they were all killed by today's aborigines the real natives to Oz are Neanderthal. I have the proof.
I agree with the theory! Another great Ep!
Be epic if BushTrucker Man also did a cameo on this Ep 😆 Or Ray Mears
fresh fish after a great day of exploring. how awesome. keep up the good work yall
I'm surprised that no-one has done gene sequencing on the baobab trees to see whether they really are related to the African trees, could possibly narrow it down to one area of Africa.
Your work is so addictive, well done guys 👍
i love watching old malcolm douglas movies.you guys remind me of his exploring but in a different way so cool
Couple of things that struck me… Firstly, happy birthday Strick! What a memorable birthday for ya.
Secondly, with the story of how the aborigines were known to paint over the Bradshaw art…. I am reflecting on how far back humanity was uncomfortable with other cultures. That we have felt that another’s existence on “our” land must be totally erased. That it somehow discredits our own culture and existence. I don’t know man… it just feels both fascinating and sad.
Absolutely blown away with this new series, guys. You’ve done Les and Malcom proud for sure. 👊
And happy birthday Strick! 🥳
Since I discovered B2B I have thoroughly enjoyed every episode. But now you have reached a new high worthy of National Geographic. Still haven't received acknowledgement of my donation. Sailor from Florida. Can't wait for next episode 7
Really glad to hear you enjoyed the episode Sailor and thanks for the support.
You should’ve been send a postcard as a thank you acknowledgement... I’ll try track it down.
Cheers from Aus!
Happy birthday! Loved this episode.
How did you and Fran meet??
Happy birthday Strick! Love your hat now, it has real character. And I’m always amazed the France seems to catch the biggest fish. Thanks for the adventures please keep them coming!
Удивительная природа... супер красиво
Just wanted to say Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy New Year to you Strick and Fran and Your Mom and Dad . Thank you for taking us with you on your adventures in Australia. I will never be there but I can dream
Wowsa!...I thought your Island jumping was awesome. But this back country exploring video in all its beauty and seclusion tops It all. Thank you all for bringing us with you to explore as well.
Amazing art. That sounds like a fair explanation of the finding of origin. Knew the boabs were similar/same, but that really opened the mind a bit more.
Have a krackin Xmas
Cheers
How in the holy hell do you walk around with out shoes?!?!? I step on a grain of sand barefooted and think I’m gonna die!
Truly a fascinating hint into the deep history of humans on our planet. I would love to know more about the first peoples of Australia and the geology of the continent. And, might I say that any video with Fran in it is not long enough! Love the inclusion of your parents as well, what a great adventure!
Thats amazing footage. So lucky to see the ancestors art. what they've left for us to see super cool love that vid. Fran nailed the catch n cook. . Good job 🍻 happy birthday
Happy Birthday Wishes! What a wonderful video, full of beauty and history! I enjoyed every second of it. --Jessica from Florida 🌞
Happy birthday
FANTASTIC ADVENTURE!!! HOW are you able to walk barefoot on those rocks??? They must be awfully hot!!!
The Bradshaw Art remind me of the Native American Kokopelli Art of the American Southwest and Mexico...
Maybe everyone’s over thinking it. Maybe the artist was just a bit crap 🤷🏻♂️
Such an amazing place.. thank for taking us on this adventure with you guys.. love it
The second set of rock art was the perfect image of masai warriors dancing ,right down to their hairstyles too
Excellent explore and story on the rock art.
Happy Birthday mate! Awesome to see people embracing all people and all the culture in oz 👍
Did the aboriginal people make stone points ? Like the American native Indians. ( anybody ) AKA arrowheads.
I do like the history you promote with your adventures.
Awesome , interesting, Thank you for sharing .
Happy Birthday! Cheer's and Enjoy 👍🏼
3:31 - Strick: That's just some traditional aboriginal rock art" - that's a willy, Jack 😆🍆
13.53 great shot of the original legends. Great vid! Tight lines from North Carolina. U.S.
Survival can take on so many different forms.......you guys make it look so easy.......of course it isnt.
The world isn’t 60000 years old mate 🙄 you probably think the world is a globe 🌎 too🤦🏻♂️
The paintings on the stone are so cool... thanks for sharing the details of what is known about the paintings!
I've always wondered if the Bradshaw painters have lived on. Maybe integrating with our 'now' locals. It's a real mystery.
Wish I could have some of that baobab wood to play with. Sacred.Stuff. 🎉 cool channel bro.
Amazing videos guys. You are a bit crazy climbing up those rock walls and ledges, but good for you. Happy subscriber. Those meals look Frantastic - would like a little more coverage on their prep sometimes.
Pre Younger Dryas cataclysm, civilization. No mystery.
Not sure way you aren't treating your water.
Those "Bradshaw drawings" are incredible. @5:40 there's actually multiple drawings. The main one focused on automatically screamed out to me as being very similar with the Egyptian god (or being) named "Thoth" with his huge, long beak. He's also holding things in both his hands (which I can't make out) but is very characteristic of Egyptian "gods" as well as other peoples deities like the Sumerian (Babylon, Akkad, Assyria, etc.) city states as well as the Aztec and Mayan people whom all depict some of their "gods" holding similar looking handbags. The other not-so-distinct figures remind me of the "ant people" of many legends and prevelant among some Native American tribes of North America, as being people who came to help the Native Americans before the Deluge. It's so crazy how seemingly on every continent on earth there is ancient archeological evidence of people having similar experiences all over the world at the same time with many of the same gods or beings. It's truly fascinating.
Mate, love all episodes. The raw beauty of Australia is magnificent, and your storytelling skills accentuate it well. Just FYI, in Africa we call it a baobab tree, and it's fruit is called cream of tartar, often used in baking, I believe. Also, the legend of the tree being uprooted and planted on it's head reaches much further than you'd thought. It's the same in South Africa and Zimbabwe, that I know of. But, it's probably the same tale wherever this species is found
Great episode you mob. I've been lucky and spent some time up that way and what I found, where you find fresh water and caves there is normally Rock Art (Lots not re-found from back in the day) also there is talk of maybe 3 lots of migration stemming from the ice ages by different mobs.
Always looking for to a new Vid from B@B. Thanks

honestly cant stand that yall travel to these places, seeing these painting then just giving a glimpse of em. im sorry but how bout you actually video them for a minute and let the rest of the world see em and try and wrap our heads around it. MYSTERY indeed!! glad your having a blast and enjoying the adventure bro!! Props to ya for bein able to do it. but if your gunna go the distance and do the effort can you at least give us a few more seconds of the cave art and let us get a good angle, let us enjoy it as much as you brother... other wise your title will never be solved and always be just CLICKBAIT. PLEASE SHOW THE ART and not just your Great Time Adventuring. ive watched several Vids and its always just a glimpse.... so disappointed. I hope im not alone in this. History of our world and species is truly a mystery and may never know our origins. 60,000 years ago is long past any written records and here you are just passing the cam over them, making it seem like there nothing, tho your searching for them, as your passing the camera over them for 3 secs... sorry for the rant but man... so many hours watching the Vids and cant even get a decent scene of the cave art... i have no more words for how i feel and the sadness that is in myself... it was right there and still cant see it. I do love the videos but please dont go searching for cave art and then not give it it's due. Especially loved the kayaking Vids!
“In the mid 1990s the Australian rock art enthusiast Graeme Walsh asserted that Geeyorn paintings, which he called Bradshaws, were the work of an earlier race of people and were therefore of no significance to contemporary Aboriginal people. This is entirely rejected by Dambeemangaddee people and has no credibility today. Janet explains that the Geeyorn paint these images in caves and they also work with the Wandjina to ensure there are edible species of plants and animals in the surrounding caves where their images are found. Janet adds that Geeyorn are more commonly found in Wunambal and Ngarinyin country and that some of her Wunambal kin sing songs about the Geeyorn and have stories about how the Geeyorn care for country.” - Excerpt from Barddabardda Woojenangorddee: we’re telling all of you.
Caves and rock art are sacred places and many are not for public viewing. Visitors should always seek permission and be accompanied by a Traditional Owner.
Much love to strick n Fran from San Diego California USA 🇺🇸
Whales Vagina. Where no one knows how to drive in the rain and the media calls a potter patter a storm of epic proportions.
Happy birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
No im not going to sing it all, catch clean and cook, what uould you do without Fran. Stay safe, stay happy, but most of all keep the cameras rolling.

NO MISTERY HERE MATE, AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINES arnt local to Australia and they haven't been in Australia for 60.000 years neither.
My nice was talking to a full blood aborigine and he asked her was she aborigine she said no my family's from some place in Asia the aborigine man said that same difference as all aborigine come to Oz from Asia.
Those paintings were done by the ppl that were here that the modern day aborigine killed off when they invaded oz from Asia.
Were I live there's a grave full of meandathols the painters of that art.
They all had aborigine spears in there heads.
one of the Neanderthals was taken and put in a museumand a group of half white aborigine when there and demanded they give them the remains to witch they took them to a mine shift in castel main vic and thru them down the mine shift.
It's like the stolen genorashion they took those kids from them because the whites were matting with the blacks and the baby's were coming out brindle so they were hitting them on the head so white man took them if they haven't of they wouldn't have good jobs and they would be all dead I got that from a full aborigine man.
You see the true blacks don't go on with a heap of lies and bs the blacks that have white blood in them get that many benefits for being part aborigine that they don't tell you the full truth as they want to keep there place in Oz were they think they are Oz native but they are not like I said the dead meandathols buryed in Oz were here way before the modern aborigine.
Aborigine paintings are the crap ones those others come from the actual really Australian natives the Neanderthals there's quite a few here.
I subbed a week ago I thought I'd answer the big mistery for you kind regards hope you read this.
It's funny that in 40 odd years the Bradshaw works have gone from being "those other mob" to "ours". At least there were a couple of honest old fellas back then.
Do you guys have a place where you share your itineraries? I understand if you are trying to protect the region from over tourism. I'm an American but I've worked in the Kimberley, North of Kununurra on a cattle property. I made it there via the Gibb and having been day dreaming about a return to the region. Traveling by coast and small craft seems to be the ultimate. I know there are plenty of outfitters to hire but self-guiding is always the best. Cheers!
How do you know which areas/ waters are safe for swimming with Croc's and such? I understand the logic in the smaller pools but what about more open water, the bigger channels? Are they saltines or freshies up there? Love your channel and your hat haha. Hello from Canada
Those paintings always had Les Hiddins scratching his head . The elders told him they were rubbish and not of their people , the paintings were there already and always near the boabs. A true unsolved mystery with some mind boggling time lines. Loved it guys.
No mystery here they were done by the true Australian natives the Neanderthals that lived here way before modernday aboriginis we have many Neanderthals graves were I live they all have modern aborigini spears in there heads modern day aboriginis come from Asia.
Thankyou,what an incredible place 🤗🇬🇧uk
Not such a mystery, when native title came about the locals had a reason to own up about their paintings. You can learn all about them in the book Gwion Gwion. A beautiful coffee table book in French German and English.
In Southern Africa the natives believe that the gods up rooted the trees and planted them upside down as well. It is considered the tree of life, the leaves are edible, rope is made from the fibre, water is stored in massive hollows, the fruit is edible when dry, if you add water to the dry fruit it makes a type of milkshake that's very healthy for you and quenches your thirst. The seeds can be roasted and eaten or made into a coffee. Our local bushmen(first people to live here before any other tribes) always chose a north facing cave,warmer in winter. Fascinating how its almost similar. Love your videos, is Fran from Italy or Spain. Cheers from South Africa.
Truly magnificent, thanks for sharing. But the real mystery is why Fran doesn't have a ring on her left hand. It's not my place to say, but that is the mystery.

If you were a Superhero- your superpower would be your Iron Feet- cant beleive walking around on those rocks and trees doesnt hurt your feet.. great aborigonee storys and paintings tho..
Un coucou d'Europe et plus particulièrement de France 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷 Bravo 👍👍👍
Sadly due to people leaving there traditional lives inland it caused a vaccum for others to follow, they had to, all tribes were 100% relied upon eachother
