Ant leaves the nest

[@dillz7046]

Thanks for sharing a bit of your story Ant, You're a good Bastard!

[@speedmachine69]

Inadventently one of the funniest characters on KZbin..... best of luck in your adventures Ant, I'm sure a lot of people have derived great enjoyment from watching your AnTics on Prenti.....cheers

[@permissiontoshine]

I agree. Funny as a hat full of monkeys. Ant, you have the personality made for the screen, naturally.

[@ariesmorningstar]

I’m going to miss Ant 😢 cause he’s funny as hell

[@andrewgroom1806]

Life is for living and humour is the spice of life. Ant seems to be the epitome of both and I hope to see him in future videos. Who needs dumb soap operas when there is so much more substance in the real world. Well done, Jack, for putting this up.

[@jenaemarieAZ]

Jack!! You & Jasmine are so kind & gracious!

[@rohansprigg7498]

Good luck with everything Ant!! Just goes to show you are never too old to learn something new, I loved how you embraced all of the station life and did it with a smile and a laugh .

[@v1rotait23]

Best wishes Ant back in the urban desert where there's guaranteed to be a KMART and a service garage much closer. I've thoroughly enjoyed your humour and banter between You , Tim & Jack, out back! Cheers from me in urban NZL, David

[@roberthocking9138]

It was very generous and brave of Ant to share his grief and healing, I am of a similar age and we could all do with 12 months at such a place, congrats to you Jack and your family for giving him the opportunity.

[@granthatcher-yp2wp]

Still laughing at Ant eating that paddy melon 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 , all the best Ant 😁👍

[@larryberwick659]

Thanks for the giggles Ant . Your the quintessential aussie , even on the tough days you can find a way to see the bright side of light . 🤝🍻

[@DLKHAY]

Healing is an important of the journey, your growth thru the last bit is huge. Sorry for your loss.

[@James_taylor810]

Beautiful words, thanks Ant.

[@PeterLongworth-u8d]

Will miss you Ant. You were one of the reasons I kept coming back to this channel, you remind me so much of my Uncle I couldn't help but watch. All the best for the future Mate.

[@Lock1xx469]

All the best on your adventures Ant, be safe and hope to see you on the channel soon.

[@andrewrobinson2869]

Thankyou Ant for the laughs. Thankyou Pom for being there, your 2 great blokes, I wish I knew you both in person. Maybe one day we just might catch-up here in Perth, I am down towards Mandurah way, cheers men, thanks Jack out the back & team, look forward to many more video’s

[@brushitoff503]

Epic video Jack, Thank you. Thanks Ant, awesome stories for great reasons. Did a similar thing for similar reasons. 28 years for me now just a few days ago. Never give up.

[@edwardhawkey5714]

So, Jack, until Ant comes back, i am going off your channel!!!!!!!!!!🤣🤣like hell, keep on rocking mate.

[@DawesyD]

I could see the hurt on Ants face just prior and whilst talking about his wife. I lost my dad to cancer in 2015. By the time he found out we only had 4 months left with him. I still can’t talk openly about it and haven’t dealt with it. Sorry not trying to do that whole ‘woe is me’. I’m just saying that Ant is bloody strong for talking about it, let alone putting it out on KZbin. Ant sorry for your loss Sir. Go out and enjoy your new adventure and stay safe brother. And hats off to the Carmody’s for looking out for you.

[@Ronlean-vh2fo]

Wow , all the best Ant and thanks for the entertainment. Bit sad that your funny manor isn’t around but we all change and hoping yours is up and up for the future

[@GodfriedFritz]

Watching from rural South Africa, Ant you will be missed and never forgotten.

[@jc2557]

Good luck Ant for your future, I enjoyed your time with Jack.

[@duncanm6589]

Wasn’t expecting that. Ant it was great having you on the channel. Some of those hypotheticals with Jack out on the track were classics, the Harold Holt one comes to mind. Sounds like a stint on the station has been great for you. Wishing you all the best Ant. Hope to see the occasional appearance in the future.

[@1plotthound]

So ant is your second cousin then jack? I always thought he was your special needs uncle lol. J/K ants quite a character and im gonna miss him. Love your videos jack, your country is like a different world compared to my area here in central ontario. Cheers

[@rossdunkley9791]

Have loved every moment Ant, you are my favourite type of Hero, you don’t realise the gift you have shared amongst your fellow countrymen. Good luck with your journey through life from myself and half a million others that are now fans of Ant,, god bless you.

[@permissiontoshine]

Oh wow. I knew Ant had a back story, but it never crossed my mind it is what it is. My heart sunk when you told us Ant. I'm so sorry. I don't know how you'd pick yourself up, rebuild your life after losing your long term love like that. I'm really glad to know that being at Prenti helped you do this. I'm sure your wife would have wanted that for you. The country out there does have something special about it, for sure. I ran away to the desert to 'find myself' many years ago. I never imagined I'd be out there for 9 years, but I was... loved every minute of it and it really did shape who I am today. There's something super special about the people who inhabit this kind of country. You will be missed and I for one look forward to seeing you pop back up at Prenti.

[@Pete-z6e]

I have , and still am dealing with the same problem Ant, better to have and lose than never have at all.

[@waynestover5426]

All the best Ant, hope to see you on some future episodes. I rather enjoyed watching you over the last few weeks of binging the channel

[@tomblount5635]

Absolutely addicted to your channel 😅😅

[@garrycourt3274]

Going to miss you Ant, all the best for the future, hope to see you on the channel again.

[@michaeldallimore8590]

Good luck Ant. Sorry to learn about your wife and glad you have been able to recover. Only time can heal grief in my experience and you have used the time well. I guess Danny will need to take on more of a lead role now?

[@jennymurphy2624]

Good job Ant, enjoyed the ride 😂

[@iBoyNZ]

Best wishes Ant, I always enjoyed your perspective.. 😊Hope😊 we’ll see you again.

[@daRangie]

Glad it's not going to be the last we see of you, Ant. Hope it's all going well back in Perth.

[@67hr74]

Well that filled in some of the puzzle, Thanks Jack & a big thanks to Ant for baring your sole to the world after going through the loss of your wife. They say time is a healer, but you never forget. I lost a sister @42 to cancer 27 years ago, still miss her. My wife has had 6 ops in 7 years for cancer and she says it's living with the ?maggot in your head" that's the hardest. Jack, you're walking the way i'm feeling. I'm staring down the barrel of another knee replacement after an MRI last month. That will add to two hips and the other knee, so i'll have the Quadi. All the best Ant for your future endeavours and look forward to you making a guest appearance in the future. 👍👍🏍🏍

[@francesearnshaw9189]

Great video Antony - lots of love ❤

[@paullawlor8097]

All the best Ant - thanks for sharing your story was extremely brave. Hope we see you crop up again at some point.

[@offroadingfoz]

Going to miss Ant! Bon voyage. He was a great comedic element to the channel. 🎉😂😢

[@timothymilam732]

That's what families should do for all the family members who at one time or another need a little help getting through something that causes them to lose their focus on life, and without someone willing to take the time to help them find their way back. Well we all know how that goes more often than not without someone willing to give that person a little confidence in themselves.

[@bobm5500]

This video seeks volumes about life ! 👍

[@974-48]

Best of luck Ant, you will no doubt return, that red dirt country is healing in so many ways. Tim, Lou & family are great people ... ❤... currant bush, nah.. Tim is a trickster 😅 Prenti Downes you- tubers will want Jack Out The Back to continue, amiss of the 'Antics.'

[@paultherockhound7277]

I want ant to stay loved the way he did things

[@johnnydale6515]

Ant and Tom what a journey that seems to have just begun , best wishes for your futures ,we will miss you @Jack Out the Back

[@walterwaller9784]

I know you all say “it’s not the end” but I feel like I just had to say goodbye to a good friend. Ant, best of luck always! Jack thanks for the update and all the best to you and everyone else.

[@johnevans6474]

All those flys remind me of milking cow’s in the summer months, you get eaten alive. Not forgetting irritable cows trying to “kick your head off “ ! Thank God I got into ExxonMobile and retired 10+ years ago after serving thirty years 🙏🏻. I was a Heavy Goods truck mechanic initially at a refinery depot, before training as a Process Operator and later a shift leader and control panel operator at Fawley Refinery, Hampshire, UK. It was stressful but , not as stressful as having to repair my in-laws (wife’s family) machinery. Dad survived the Japanese prisoner of war camp in Burma, and the railway line. He loved the Aussie’s but the enemy gave them a hard time.

[@robsin2810]

Nice one, Jack.👍🙏🇦🇺

[@SimjetAU]

Great video again jack...Ant I hope you continue on with your new "skills"..:)

[@joseph8852]

[@andrewworley8946]

FFS I'm a 53 yo bloke who's lived and worked around the world and this caused me to have "something in my eye"... 😢😂😂😂 Nice one chaps.

[@scotttillotson3962]

If I ever cross paths with you Ant , I'll buy you a beer. Come down to the Canning Club we will bring you up to speed with Danny on the camels. Jack your a good bloke. got your stickers in the mail , keep it coming

[@alanvaleandthelazyfarmer1930]

I thought Ant was closely related to Tim way back when he talked about Maryland on the Tarwonga Road. My relatives, Humphrys (Rocky Pool) and Piesse families were on the same road. How far along the road from Piesseville was it?

[@johnevans6474]

Ditto Chris,she left three children that I brought up. Fortunately they’ve followed their Dad’s example and have all achieved professional positions.

[@scottking1479]

He said it a few times in past videos. You're right again Jack. That would be good on a short

[@benfulton1265]

Come back soon Ant! 👍

[@TimGray-tu1yb]

Great video 👍

[@frankryder9325]

Good Onya Ant !!

[@jimmyrecard6021]

[@robertschaefer7151]

I’m sorry your leaving, what an asset you’ve been jack, hope you learned a lot, come back soon, sorry you lost your wife. You are an asset to your two boys.

[@willybilly9301]
