I Visited the Town Where Everyone Lives Underground

[@unearthedaustralianopal]

Feel free to come mining again anytime Ben…you sure did bring the luck with you. Unearthed Australian Opal enjoyed having you along for a night of Opal Mining. Well done

[@benmorris]

Cheers Dan, it was a great time!

[@michaeljohndennis2231]

I really enjoyed Ben’s video of the Australian outback town of Cooper Pedy - I could not help thinking of the film “Priscilla Queen of The Desert” when I was watching it - and even to be in the same country that gave the world Kylie Minogue was amazing too ❤

[@Mcniven02]

Opal mining deserves a full doc style video!!

[@finesseddad3969]

Hello do u have Snapchat or instagram I’d love to follow

[@JordanJMcQueen]

I love how friendly everyone was - Paul was hilarious. Great video as always!

[@benmorris]

Glad you enjoyed 😁😁

[@ACDZ123]

Paul hates humans on the planet he said. He knows what to do then

[@ThunderRoad1]

Love Paul's dry humor (which is understandable) and Michael (who looks a bit like Beardyman) had such a cool vibe. He was a great walking PR for the town of Coober Pedy. However......the flies, jesus the flies. 🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰🪰

[@benmorris]

The flies were terrible I don’t know how they do it

[@salmankhan-hc1wq]

"i always go to the creeks and catch lizards" The most Australian kid ever.

[@damarthapa4496]

😂😂

[@sprig5173]

Kids in small towns in Australia still get around on bikes and play outside

[@ambermcdonald2643]

I only watched this video because I heard my partner and baby were in it, now watching it, I remember you talking to my partner while I was working haha. You did a good job with the video and am glad you liked our quirky little town!

[@benmorris]

Thank you for being so welcoming!! Hopefully I’ll be back one day

[@MisteryBoy-zk4kw]

hey ben if you see this at 8:01 im the kid in the blue jumper it was nice meeting you

[@benmorris]

Nice to meet you too!! Thanks for watching 😁

[@eldoctorx]

I live in Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, and i've meant to go up to Coober Pedy for such a long time. I've been to a few mines in SA and they're all really mindblowing. This makes me want to go even more! Great vid

[@JohnSmith-cu1jo]

We lived there in the early ‘90’s. Great couple of years. Glad you found it.

[@raheem__]

Paul is hilarious, what a legend!

[@katiegawthrop9426]

im a silent watcher, but i have booked my first solo trip to rome next month, thank you ben for the motivation, great vlogs

[@benmorris]

Have the best time and thank you for watching!! ❤️

[@coreywilson7781]

Ben! Never thought i'd see you in South Australia. Thank you for visiting my home state and Coober Pedy! Great video

[@SearchingBobby]

Just amazing how you get better and better with every video. The storytelling the ideas you have just great! Keepi inspiring !

[@jordandouvartzidis1745]

My hometown, I grew up in Coober Pedy. I left in 2001 but still consider it home. My father moved to Coober Pedy from Greece In 1960 and was home to him for a long time. Can’t wait to go back.

[@kimmypayne2559]

Binge watching Ben's channel. Been awhile and I forgot how funny and entertaining he is.

[@rogermckinnon5738]

Lol Coober Pedy is a place hard to describe to anyone who has never been, but once you've been you will never forget. Absolutely love the place

[@JohnSmith-sj2dk]

Good man to visit a small Aussie outback town and showcase it. I was bought up in a small Aussie town - great (lil eccentric lol) people and community.

[@adildudhia7269]

Been waiting so long for this. Glad you're back. Please keep uploading consistently🙏

[@benmorris]

Hopefully it's worth the wait

[@RK-hc2qe]

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing, Ben! Hope you're doing well!

[@Giovanni_Tisera]

Another amazing video!! Thanks for letting us travel with you & showing us so many cool places 🤩

[@marybethhughes5320]

We stayed a few days in Coober Pedy when my kids were young. All adults now they still will tell you that when we checked into our motel, the owner gave them solo cups to trap the bugs in our room. The bugs were so big, all night long you heard the bugs crawling around each under a plastic cup. Good memories. .

[@roseclair3927]

This place reminds me of watching The Flintstones

[@timfordfalconxf7714]

US Aussies are happy to have you here ben, Glad you enjoyed if you want to see the most isolated city in the world try Perth ( Where i am ) :)

[@alessiocarrocci757]

No Way! I'm from Adelaide and I can't believe another famous youtuber actually came to South Australia. What a surprise, great video

[@richards9750]

What an impressive place, so interesting! Loved it. Thanks Ben

[@liamgeorge7317]

Amazing to see you in Australia! Hope you enjoyed your stay

[@missy183]

Thanks for Sharing this Video. God bless. ❤❤❤

[@kmatzi]

I knew this was Coober Pedy without even watching the video! What a place! 😂

[@nonamerooster5413]

Same never been but from Australia

[@hadalis]

15:45 not the faded blue ribbon ice cream container, i swear they are our version of biscuit tins

[@pavelivosedlacek]

Great video! I visited Coober Pedy last year, it feels amazing watching this video and recognising a lot of places!

[@nathancousins8426]

Loving the videos as always mate. Keep smashing it Ben!

[@AmyCT622]

New subscriber here from Connecticut, USA....love this video!! So much fun, interesting and the people were so kind!!!

[@Tassiedevil287]

Most people in the outback of Australia are very kind and welcoming.

[@nancyayotte2297]

Paul😅😅❤ the community was beautiful and so were the opals. When i see people just enjoy each other it makes me wish i was like that. Enjoyed watching. Ty

[@marklivingstone3710]

lol, there’s a whole suburb in Sydney where the whole population are housed underground….. it’s called Rookwood 😊. The flys in Outback South Australia are legend, from about Port Augusta to Katherine in the NT the first thing you learn is the Aussie wave.

[@kamau6988]

Awesome video Ben, also Paul seems like a hoot

[@hollyszakal7973]

The strange switch I’m feeling being from south Australia, living in London, watching this in London, a video of a KZbinr I follow being in south Australia hahaha

[@lmb19661]

omw to SE Australia next week for my first trip "down under". loved your video and tour of such a fun offbeat town. Well done & thank you! ❤

[@harrythompson6977]

im a westerner(uk) through and through but this makes way more sense to me

[@redgarcia1427]

Thanks for the interesting video! Love from Kentucky, USA!!🐢✌

[@vealtzioncliff]

I love seeing Mr. Ben Morris living his best life! Missed out on a few years but I'm glad you're still pursuing your dreams. You're definitely one of the good ones 😅 you're a keeper haha 👀

[@JaneNewAuthor]

Went Coober Pedy about 30 years ago. Didn't stay overnight but visited a family who lived underground. When they wanted another room they just dug one. Great place.

[@icecreambodyrolls]

Paul's personality is stellar 😭😭🔥.

[@itsworkinprogress]

Sounds like you had a good time. I like trips like this 💛 I'm sure the flies would welcome you again 😄

[@lacodell]

🎉😂😂😂😂

[@kyms9390]

Thanks for this great video, Im australian but have never been to Coober Pedy but it looks so good, love the bush, the red dirt and the great community of totally real geuine people, they are very blessed.

[@maddieg5325]

Mad to see you in my state when I've been following your channel for years! Love it

[@shamster24]

Welcome to Australia! 🇦🇺 should've worn a cork hat, shoo those flies away 😂

[@MillhouseSpeaks]

Please upload more than once a month! You should be at over a million subscribers by now!

[@Ceedoestravel]

Heyy Ben thanks for always making quality content!!

[@nopwess608]

Who else thought the dog was driving 😂😂😂

[@HannahCoziCorner]

It does look like that 😂

[@ItsartoTV]

They drive on the left side So the driver was on the right side

[@rickz5052]

Never underestimate the skills of a dog.

[@jj-if6it]

Yay please visit more of our country! So cool

[@LucieBalagova]

I hope you release more content Ben, you're my first ever vlog type youtuber I started to watch and enjoy the every day passion of travelling and meeting new people, cultures and really embracing life before technology ❤ but if it wasn't for technology I wouldn't be lucky enough to encounter your amazing content so keep up the good work your real fans love you ❤

[@adammcdonald6870]

Paul definitely hitting on Ben a little haha

[@Graceelane]

South Aussie representation yessss Ben!

[@peanut_almondandco]

Did anyone else look at the thumb nail and wonder why it looks like the bed has abs

[@KhallelaB.]

Nope lol. It looked like a quilted blanket 😂

[@lisamilliken2194]

Ben is the most underrated youtuber out there!

[@ohmydanidarling]

Did NO ONE else notice what the bird said after the “Welcome to the Shooters Club” at 15:18 😂🦜 lmfaooo 😭🤣

[@Jhiido]

That wasn’t the bird. That’s a meme.

[@jacksonopals3028]

Thank you for visiting our amazing town!

[@kakumee]

There's some underground houses in Alaska too, more like south of Anchorage.

[@wealthy.digital.journey]

Cant stop grinning while watching your vlogs:D I think I found a safe place to chear myself up xd thank you!!

[@sonic_sabbath]

Flies - that is just Australia all over. You needed a cork hat for them!

[@sarahcoblentz4700]

Paul is awesome. Love him. This looks like a very cool experience.

[@RolandTschiah]

"what do you think about the unssolved murders around here?" - " didn't happen to me, don't care" 😂

[@trevorsbarkingmadchannel4501]

Omg it’s so like it was in Prescilla Queen of the Desert. Did no one mention that there ? Scarey kinda place tho. Great vlog Ben. Best wishes.

[@MindfulTarot]

“I didn’t mean to mis-bird her” - 😂

[@zakuraiyadesu]

Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!

[@SamHofman]

Best notification I could get on KZbin !

[@benmorris]

I'm back 🫡

[@bertrandrichemond1988]

Yoooo. Looking forward to watching it. Love your videos. Put my country on your bucket list. The Seychelles Islands 😎🇸🇨🙂

[@benmorris]

Dw it's in my sights

[@garawa1987]

I remember when I was 15yrs old in 89 I wa catching a bus to Adelaide we made a stop at Cooper paddy at night it was a shock seeing the town it was something out of the twilight zone

[@babettebates2327]

We live in andamooka sa another opal mining place that comes with flies 😂..paul was awesome and loved his humour ..your such a character and love this video..thankyou for the tour 😊

[@adildudhia7269]

The part where you're talking about Babbel, was that in your house? That place looks absolutely amazing.

[@sunlight.travels]

asked myself the exact same thing haha

[@Tbl-4]

Cmonnn Ben finally hope ur having fun in Bali

[@astreet339]

That’s small town people for you. Glad you had a good time

[@parcelpmarhamparksuffolk6015]

Great video tour. I'm in the UK but would love to visit sometime. Looks like somewhere I would love to spend some time in. I wonder what challenges are living there? Do they have TV or internet? Thanks again. Keith

[@Warwck24]

Ha ha u forgot to mention the flies bite ! 😂😂😂 just 50 or so riding on yr back? Don't miss it

[@alessiman]

Fun Fact - Season 2 of the Amazing Race visited Coober Pedy and one of the roadblocks was to play a round of golf at the Golf Course

[@andymarten6947]

Paul and Michael ❤

[@rick7081]

It’s amazing watching this very likeable guy do close ups as he talks. He doesn’t move his upper lip, but his lower jaw works furiously to make up for what is quintessentially the stiff upper lip. I guess that’s being British.

[@flyingdutchman3165]

Ben's back with a banger! 🔥

[@benmorris]

I am indeed

[@TheJournalofanExplorer]

Good to see you back with a banger! Miss your videos :'(

[@basimorabe]

Great vlog! Those flies though😢😅, it's like bougie cave living 👌🏾.

[@PandaRodent]

ive been to coober pedy twice. I live in adelaide so Ive driven there i didnt even know there was an airport lol. Anyway it was amazing and the locals were so lovely

[@DrewLnz]

Okkkay beard!! It looks good!

[@AJ_UK_LIVE]

Sure is an interesting place! Given the temps, I'm not surprised they live the way they do!

[@chloearmstrong9535]

Love your videos just wish you would post a bit more and I could listen to you all day long

[@markiusgalfordii9248]

I would love it. Think about it you save money on heat and a c. You save money on building material. And if they allow it you can personalize your house or room.

[@bbanglix]

i've just been in sydney and the flies have been the worst usually they're fine 😂

[@michaeljohndennis2231]

Ben I really enjoyed this video - I kept thinking of the film “Priscilla Queen of The Desert” when I was watching it - and to be in the same country that gave the world Kylie Minogue is also amazing too, as I’m a huge Kylie fan ❤

[@NcWcN1]

I thought of Coober Pedy on the spot after reading the video's title, while "Priscilla..." did not showcase the underground accomodations, I read somewhere of an underground hotel (located there) with vents to the surface and upside-down umbrellas to catch dust.

[@Mo_Mudabber]

So your telling me they live down under? Literally and figuratively

[@benmorris]

hahaha yes

[@liamgaus]

welcome to coober pedy mate I've gone there before pretty cool hoped u enjoyed the experience and u should go to adelaide cbd

[@lastrawbella3951]

I love this vid and the person who says - everything is treasure here

[@NyashaMhandiwa]

I'm watching from Johannesburg South Africa 🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍.I'm still shook

[@lisetteem588]

Severe heat is expected in this area.Windy 45° 29° Thu Mostly cloudy 42° 21° 32° 17° Sat Sunny 32° 17° Sun Sunny 35° 18° Mon Partly sunny 42° 22° Tue Mostly sunny 42° 27° Wed Mostly sunny 41° 27° Excessive heat Coober Pedy SA 4 hours ago

If you’re still in South Australia! I’ll be happy to show your around man :)

[@shaneedwards6704]

Coober pedy home of the last drive in in south oz wondering if the no explosives sign is still on the entrance lol

[@bryngriffith]

Stayed for a few days in Cooper back in 1998!

[@DigitalNomadsExplore]

Great video! Interesting place. I love the simple life. Paul was funny.

[@KaltrinaDemiri]

"Have a look at at our beautiful.. nothing" LOL idk why that made me laugh lol

[@Maria-vw5eu]

I see no one wearing sunnies 😎 Strange for Australia!

[@okaycola2]

I love how u said woman & he gently corrected you saying WOMEN is a strong word what a gentleman

[@kpizzlemynizzle922]

Those flies would be a deal breaker for me! NO WAY!!

[@tiffanyloverbug1988]

You have the same last name as me, so I guess I should watch this, lol. Homes made of rock are so beautiful... At some point in my life, I want to live in the desert.
