Went to Alice Springs over 20 years ago and the two highlights were the Aboriginal Cultural Center and watching the river fill in 24 hours. Now I see the city as a stop to top up on Diesel, water and food.
I just randomly open Google earth & idk why goes to Australian satellite view and just started zooming exact middle of Australia which was deserted all around but then suddenly i found this town, lol this place is so lonely in the heart of desert not any mega city around it. Then i came here and it's good to see it
Every summer gets the spectacular lightning storms in the Australia’s Red Centre and it is fun to watch during the wettest months of November to February and beware of the flash floods especially along the Todd River in Alice Springs so people got swept away from the storms. Lightning is beautiful to watch in the heart of Australia.🇦🇺
I haven't lived in Alice Springs in 14 years I Grew up there and last year and went to go visit and man it's not what it used to be. And if people say it's a great place to Visit there Lying Through their teeth. It was more welcoming 14 years ago
@@wattsy4468 From Darwin downward anyone who is not a blackfella doesn't stand a chance, just look at Tennant Creek, an alcoholic infested shithole and Alice Springs is not too far behind.
@@davidlp3019 Katherine as well. That place was a dump the 1st minute I put foot into it. Nothing to do nowhere to go. The only plus is its 4 hours from Darwin a much better place
I live in Alice and its dead AF. Most of us just stay home or go to our mates house. The only time you'll get to experience the town being alive is either at the rock bar or the casino and thats about it lol.
Was just looking up places on googles maps in Bulgaria, suddenly went to Australia to try an pinpoint the middle of the desert and found this town and found this video afterwards. I live in Sofia, Bulgaria which has 1.4mil people, question is, why don’t you move out, if it is that bad and boring?
I spent the last half of the year 1986 in this city, completing my year 11 in the Alice Springs High School. I lived with the Gillfedders in 25th Memorial Avenue, just two to three minutes walk from the school. I was participating in the unique annual festival of the city, the Heanly on Todd, of the year 1986, and it was a big fun for me. The city was nice and, having not visited it since then, I would love to visit it someday if I get chance to. 😊
@Crunchy Queef Sad to hear this. I got no story about the violence of the youth you mentioned, in regard to the city. Could you please briefly explain it any further to let me know a bit of its nature? You can also help me by giving me links to any youtube channel if there are any that you know of, that cover the story. Thank you.
I go there every month during the winter months and I stay in motel with 6 foot high enclosed fence closed at night. There are drunk Aboriginals wondering around all night every night screaming, fighting etc I think you get the picture.
I tried some bandiberg ginger beer today, I think it's the first Australian food I've ever tried, soo good. really has a nice ginger kick. and yes they did pay me for this comment. P
@@jacuzzi.834-57 your correct the police wont do shit if anything happens and spend more time questioning if you started it or if you are racist in anyway. They try to prove indirectly if your racist
Around 3:30, the people getting off the 'ghan' seem like they are being held at gunpoint to say something nice about it...I think the camera crew was threatening them to force them to say something nice...this is some kind of ghan propaganda video.

Yeah its fine..IF YOU DON'T LIVE HERE. The town is BORING. Everywhere cool has closed down and the town is really feeling it. Nothing exciting ever happens here. And don't get me started on the American worship in this town. Enough of those stupid BB caps to make me want to PUKE
@@stillhftm273 yeah well lets hear you say that bullshit when your in Alice and hear "Gimme dollar Gimme cigarette" and when you dont you hear "FUCK YOU" before they put you in the hospital and the cops will spend more timing trying to prove if you are racist more so then DOING THEIR JOB"
a pity some want Australia day abolished. That is ANTI-AUSTRALIAN if people dont like Australia or Australia day then get the FUCK OUT of Australia. Allow others to enjoy it and feel pride for our country

GOD BLESS AUSTRALIA A COUNTRY WHO OPENED ITS ARMS TO ALL CULTURES OFFERING MANY OPPORTUNITIES AND A DECENTE LIFE!!!
As a Martian, this place is livable to me.
Yes
Oh yeah totally a livable place 😂
Life thrives out here. The minute you don’t respect it, it’ll kill you.
temperatures are a little bit warmer but it's a great place for an extraterrestrial vacation!
wow, I heard about this place from the book. So I learn the history of Alice Springs from this video. Thanks.
Ignore a lot of what sky news says. There is a spring at the Telegraph centre. It’s still there today.

Holy sweetest fuck 46 degrees that's insane!!!🥵🥵🥵
@@danielrsson217146 degrees is pretty warm, what are you talking about?
To me its a dream place to visit. I think Australian govt should introduce new n lenient laws for immigrants to habitat such place.
It's the crime capital of Australia. Not a dream place to live, you need a reality check.
@@sammyflinders I don't know about that. Also this area Is known for serial killers like in Wolf Creek Movie
I visited Alice Springs in December 1980...heard John Lennon death in radio....
I was born the very next day (December 9th). Turning 43 next month...
No thanks, I would have visited if I were going to go climb Ayers Rock, but now that’s not going to happen I have no interest in going there.
@Dog Star If whites went back to Europe you'd still be stuck with Muslims, Sudanese, Chinese, and all the others. Good luck with that.
How to go and visit Alice spring
Good question by Mona noorchalida
Fly
Why? are they going to stop us from going there soon?
@Dog Star Aboriginal welfare will follow.
The first guy interviewd is AMerican hahaha , go Seppo go seppo go Seppo go Seppo
This aged well
You are gay mate
I just want to know why the first person interviewed has a American accent lol
Probably because of Pine Creek
@@adamcheeseplease Definitely Pine Creek. My mate's dad worked at Pine Gap, and she and the whole family have got an American accent.

It's crime ridden

How often where there old times people live there natural life’s but now moderately make them drunk

Interesting with Sky News they must have been paid for this one
no mames una ciudad en medio de australia, como le haran para conseguir el agua en un desierto como ese

The town's so isolated. I bet Covid-19 did not made it there.
Sadly no, but every other disease did; just look the Abo statistcs

Nothing there except a rock we can no longer climb.

I don't think so
Not any longer. You'll get knifed or worse.
Uh….I’ll pass.

The least safest city.
Oh ya by Mona noorchaalida
YOLO
The most dangerous city in Australia and the 18th most dangerous city in the world.

see it before the Chinese take it
The Chinese will be better than the current occupants. At least the Chinese are wealthy and civilised
"spectacular scene". Haha
Shouldnt be filming people out on the streets without permission

Turn the place into a nuclear dump site so It actually becomes useful.
it will be if Pine base gets blown up.
