Love This. Brilliant!

Good to know that us Aussies have not only lost a war with emus but we lost one with geese as well 😅

It’s interesting watching this early series in David Attenborough’s career (I’m watching episode 2 currently) how good he is at interviewing people & at documenting past events. He’s so well known for detailing the lives & behaviour of animals, that I thought this was what he’d always done from the beginning. Fascinating stuff. 👍😀

38:28 Who knew David Attenborough was even more candid with humans!

This is brilliant

Thank you very much for posting this film. David Attenborough is always worth watching, & his voice is often mesmerizing. Like Malcolm Douglas & Les Hiddins films about rural Australia, this is a real treasure. 👍😀

Nearly 60 years+,Sir David Attenborough is nearly 100 years, amazing and remarkable he truly is a Living Legend the man he is interviewing died 20 years later in 1982/83, another true Character who came out from Ireland,I watched the he 1991 Rugby World Cup Quarter Final between Australia vs Ireland and even Jack loved the game eventhou Australia won and beat the All Blacks the following weekend and evening got to Brisbane to watch the Final Against England and Australia Winning it the Tournament and the Country really went off Celebrated especially against the Springboks the next year to confirm Australia was the best at Rugby in 1992,but back to Jack and David and this great documentary,just wish I'd been around for this one.

They are Bradshaw paintings David

David was a dick in those days

this is so twisted

wowzer

Did they say flat and lifeless David? Scientists are fools if they think 10,000 years! Some say 40,000, some say 60,000 some say that they were always here and NOT out of africa..

Sensational

Much respect to the survival skills of the aborigine but there devotion to the snake god is as nonsensical , as The white man whom worships the invisible man in the sky . 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Crazy to think that at the time of this film the Indigenous Australians weren't classed as Australians. They weren't given the right to vote or weren't even counted in the nations population until the 1967 referendum.

🙂👍

I'm sure even central Australian aboriginal people have forgotten this and not even seen it.

The Aborigines have so much knowledge of our land , they have learnt to synchronise with nature in a beautiful way, yet at the same time, they get treated so unfairly and this is the only thing that is concerning. How can we, at this day of age, be so ignorant of our own kind? Yet you call yourself civilised?.. 😓 I came from Viet Nam almost 30 years ago and have learnt that the Aborigines are so underrated and I am very ashamed for how the majority of us are viewing them. They should and must be respected by all means and we must learn how to approach them in a better, more respectful way. There is so much we can learn from each other

I love how he calls it a trumpet Instead of didgeridoo

Borraloola has changed a bit since; more folks living around ot . . .

White man dislocated them it wasn’t for water that’s a big lie lol

David Attenborough, you filthy hater of humankind, may your black soul rot in hell.

Bro thank you so much.

Beautiful upload. Advance Australia Fire 🔥

corrupt flog

They must all shop at the same nappy place 😂

This old stuff is far more interesting than stuff you see nowadays . . .

thank you

Ah what a treasure

Hurricane Andrew Aug 1992 was 165 mph and gust to 190 mph. Hurricane Camille is strongest hurricane to ever hit USA in coastal Mississippi USA in Aug 1969. Hurricane Michael in Oct 2018 was cat five 160mph that hit panama City Florida and Mexico Beach

That's winds of the cyclone sounded like cat five hurricane in Atlantic Ocean basin Caribbean sea and Gulf of mexico.USA or eastern Pacific Ocean. The winds sound like 155+ or 165mph plus. Gust 180-190 mph

The rebuilding of Darwin was the right decision. Now a large vibrant multicultural city of 150,000. Houses are now built to standard to withstand cyclones. Sounds like a great place to visit

Whose money does the government use ffs

I was only 6 when cyclone Tracy hit. I remember Mum and Dad waking my sister and me up and rushing us into the bathroom. We were in an elevated house in the suburb of Wagaman. We ended up in the linen cupboard in the hallway and we watched as the walls of our house blew away. It's true , you can never forget the deafening sound. Although my poor parents lost everything they owned, Thank God none of us were injured. Anton if it was your Wagaman house you were in when the cyclone hit , our family lived 3 houses down in Batavia St. .

And the rich get richer

This is what happens, when our justice system fails, by closing youth correction centres Australia wide! When someone has had dozens of offences & have been bailed just as many times, is NOT in jail or correction, then the law has become a sad, sick joke, because there are NO consequences of their actions, as they are back on the street in hours after the police book them!

Aborigines are tooo far gone. No one is able to save them from their disgusting actions. Hey bone mob!

My dad was aged 22. The house he and family were in was the modern type, ground level on a concrete slab, tile roof, brick exterior and plaster board interior, large sliding glass windows. One would think it would be strong, but it got completely destroyed. A miracle he and family survived, had no injuries The chaos in Darwin and the mass exodus by road and air afterwards would have been similar to the evacuation of Singapore before the Japanese advance in 1942 . Now, 50 years later, the sound of the standard emergency warning signal sends chills down his spine.

The catch and release programme has to stop!!! It’s been going on since I was a kid. It is not working. Criminals get penalties, end of story, shouldn’t matter what colour your skin is. The judge that lets them out should be sacked or charged due to failing to ensure the safety of residents by not locking these ones up or at least ensuring that rehabilitation is mandatory. Integration is the key not segregation, one flag one country. One set of laws!!

Let's do the wokey cokey

This amazes me. Such a huge need and they take it away - why?

for me, it is Unbelievable!, hearing the Stories?, of those who LIVED/ SURVIVED!, Cyclone Tracy's Fury!, my Dad only arrived the Day Before!, on board the HMAS ARROW!, can only Imagine?, the Fight he Fought!, & Lost!, R.I.P to DAD! & Able Seaman Ian Rennie!, & to ALL LIVES LOST!, that CHRISTMAS MORNING!, Thankyou!.

At least some Aborigines will be doing well out of this mess, the dealers. Good news from Haiti as well this week. Politicians can’t fix this problem, only Aboriginals can. Tell the kids they’re warriors, that ought to fix it.

Smart lady - unbiased and caring

Not manslaughter. It was murder. 😢

this lady should be our leader now

Good one

One of our few smart leaders. Jacinta, Malcolm Roberts, Alex Antic, Gerard Rennick and Matt Canavan are all awesome.

That was an awesome speech!!! Well done Jacinta.
