0:48 and that is why you're told never to drive through flood water.

[@judithstrachan9399]

“If it’s flooded, forget it.” It’s also why we have signs saying “Road subject to flooding. Indicators show depth.” & why we have the indicators (white posts with a line every 10 x 20 cm & “1 M” marked. If you can’t see the indicators, it’s well over a metre deep.

[@PiersDJackson]

Normally that road is dry, and I'd assume this is the once a decade floods - so no depth markers, it'd be a "Dip".... that being said he went too fast, the car hydroplaned and floated sideways into the scrub.

@UFO-047 there's a difference between a usual dip or causeway which floods on a regular basis - thus having depth markers - and the section that is simply a low point on the road that would be flooded possibly once a decade.

@@lionellloyd9003 I looked up 2 separate sites, as I was sure cork hats had been around for decades as I remember them as child in the 1960s. * Early English settlers wore hats to keep cool and corks, light, jiggly and prevalent (thanks to rum being a popular tipple), were added to keep flies away - and also keep hands free. *The exact origin of the cork hat remains unclear, but its emergence likely coincides with the rise of European exploration and settlement in Australia during the 18th and 19th centuries.

[@kaotearoa6325]

If you have been to outback in Australia you know some areas are dry most of the time but if you go there in the wrong time when there's a rain storm, suddenly the roads that were dried and just a road that you can drive through become flooded and become a river. So you have to watch out after rain storms.

Ryan. You mentioned your wife gets excited at Starbucks. No, no, no. Your duty is to protect her, grow a mullet, use fly defeating cirk hat, kiss her under the camel toe, whatever you need to do to keep her from Starbucks. Oh, and dont ever drive thru flood waters, you car will float away for a few minutes while you slowly drown. 😊

[@nswinoz3302]

The modern day cork hat is just a rough almost string net mesh 1cm opening that hang down over your wide brimmed hat about 10-15cm but does NOT go to you neck. I bought the whole family them when camping in Busselton WA. We counted 35 flys sitting on my face over the wrap around glasses. It works so well that you can eat beneath it. It’s elasticed around the head so you can roll it up and place it over the head band when not in use and you pull it down to use it. And that is why you don’t see the cork hats any more! Just brilliant for hiking or camping! NSW in Oz (Bloody hard to describe so just search “AOS COTTON FLY VEIL HEAD NET 1 UNIT”)

[@pressb]

The footless gull, there's a fish in Oz called a Chopper, also called Tailor, their jaws/teeth are bit like Piranha's and they go nuts on schools of baitfish "chopping" them to pieces. Such a fracas attracts birds (and fishermen) to the site of the carnage, except when Choppers go into a feeding frenzy they bite at anything moving. Stumpie may well have made an ill advised landing to pick up pieces and his bright red paddlefeet may have fallen into the "anything moving" category.

Yeah the hat with corks works a little bit but when your in outback WA the bush flies are so thick you really need a net that covers your head and ties around your neck to keep them away from your face.

“Is the mullet hairstyle Australian? The mullet - short on the sides, long in the back - is not an Australian invention.
