Thankyou to Ryan Was, i appreciate your skepticism. I'm a 42 year old Aussie (Adelaide) with 2 half Korean children. i call bulls*** on 95% of what she said. The difference in weather. During summer we can have a whole week of 40 - 43 degrees celcius (104-110 Fahrenheit) . if you know bottleshops close at 10, then you will buy alcohol before then. Most Australians who act tough are usually the opposite. I think "Hardy" is a better explanation than "tough". She got heartbroken by a chad for sure. The fact that she mentions race as the first reason someone is rude shows her character. Australia is very multicultural. My half Korean children (16+) have experienced almost no racism.

The problem I have with her talking about Australia is that you can't talk about all of Australia in a general sense because it's so vast.

There's so much wrong with her statements, but in the end it's her opinions I guess.

[@CaptainPhatt]

Yes people do complain about it being hot a lot during summer, but when the temperatures rise above 35c (95f) on a really humid day then it's justified, because the humidity makes it feel a lot hotter. There have been a lot of temperature records broken in the last 10 years, with a local record being set at 47c (116.6f) a few years back where I live. The old record was 43c (109.4), however in a town nearby on the same day the temperature rose to 51c (123.8) which was also a new record for that town. However you will always get people who will claim that it hotter back in the old days, but I remember the old record for where I live only being 41c and that was set back in the late 70's, but I just remember it as being a really hot day. So peoples claims that it was hotter back in the old days are all based on anecdotal evidence.

[@adamjones1805]

Australia is a continent there's a wide range in temperatures both in summer and winter. If she's from Sydney, she probably lives near the coast and the sea breeze keeps it cool year round. If you live in western Sydney, 37 is basically every day. She obviously wasn't in Sydney during the summer of 2016/17. It was 38 degrees at 3am for a month solid, and 48 degrees in the middle of the day! Then if you live in QLD it's over 30 degrees with humidity for 6 months of the year, with winter a beautifully mild 21-26 degrees. If she's comparing Japan to Australia, you can't compare. My wife is Japanese, and I've spent a lot of time there. It's completely different. You can buy alcohol in vending machines there! There's a temple in Kyoto made of pure gold with very little security and fencing. If that was in Australia you'd have people out there melting it with bunsen burners! Lol! As for shops closing at 5pm, yes it sucks but we don't have the population of say the US or Japan. Our largest city is only half the population of Japan's 3rd largest city. Our entire country is 10 million less than Tokyo. Yes, compared to Japan, Australia's customer service is pathetic.

Where I live in Hervey Bay QLD, our average summer temperature rarely gets higher than 33 degrees Celsius BUT our humidity levels are mostly between 80 and 100%… it’s not the heat but the humidity that’s stifling…

[@georgiemoon9990]

Hmmmm....... regarding the heat, she's way off. Also, having lived in Brisbane my whole life, I have to say I resent her saying that it '' hasn't got much going for it ''. OK, maybe 20 years ago, but not today. Mind you, the humidity here would kill a small dog, so be careful! LOL

[@meghanvidler9147]

I met a Japanese family in Cairns on a very pleasant 28C day - I was in summer clothes, they were in winter clothes and still cold. I really think it depends on where you live in a country and what you are acclimatised to. You also need to factor in the effect pollution (as in Singapore) has on heat and things like humidity.

[@RHINO2310]

I was living in Coober Pedy which is between 4 deserts and when those deserts heat up Coober melts was there at 1:58 am and it was 51.8C Could not leave the dugout as it was like opening the oven door not the front door. What was the temp at 1:58pm when I could not leave the dugout? now for you whom do not know 125F is 51.66C Death valley USA is the hottest place in the world. Why because the whole world to Americans is America.

Hey Ryan, grab a camera and show us what your town is like. Our sky is super blue and clear. The nights also have tons of stars 🤩

The shape of the earth changes to more elliptical in our summer so we are the closest to the sun. The sun in Oz is NOT the same as it is everywhere else.

[@RoyHolder]

You mean orbit around the sun, right? 😉

[@j.f.christ8421]

Earth's orbit is almost circular. The variation is minor and has no noticeable effect on the weather. Put it this way, if you shrunk the Earth's orbit to the size of a 28" bicycle wheel, the eccentricity would be less than a layer of paint.

[@tacitdionysus3220]

Not the shape of the earth, the shape of the earth's ORBIT. It is an ellipse, with one end further away from the sun than the other. Its furthest point is during July and its closest point is January (souther hemisphere summer). The difference in distance from the sun is about is about 5 million kilometres. Hence the level of UV is greater at the same latitude in summer in the southern hemisphere than it is in the northern.

[@jdmanson54]

@@j.f.christ8421 Correct. The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis (23 deg from the vertical) relative to the orbit. See wikipedia for details : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_tilt

[@j.f.christ8421]

@@tacitdionysus3220 Earth averages 150 million km from the sun, +/1 2.5 million doesn't matter much. Oz is hot because most of it is like Death Valley, it's mostly desert plus no mountains to cause rain and so on.

[@Rueme63]

Shops don’t open late because there isn’t enough trade make it worth wile. Laws say they can, but if outgoing costs are going to outweigh incoming sales, why would they stay open ? Supermarkets trade late, but very few other retailers do.

[@jenniferharrison8915]

Nah on the shirt, it looks like pajamas! 🧐 Ryan, can I suggest you watch One Pack Wanderers from the US or Karstan & Maxine from Australia - both couples are exploring different parts of Australia! K&M travel the real outback with two small kids! 😁👍

[@FredPilcher]

LOL. Sitting in Canberra in winter where it's almost snowing and complaining about how hot it is. :P If you think Australia's hot, you've never travelled. Although she is talking from Brisbane where it's really humid AF, making it feel a lot hotter than it is. And yeah - the sky can be spectacularly blue. We don't put an R on the end of Korea, though some people insert one when it's followed by a word starting with a vowel. We do that sometimes. If you're stupid enough to buy water when it's free out of the tap, you deserve all you get. Unless you live in Adelaide. And yes, we have a real alcohol problem. 😞 She's right - it's a cultural thing. Plenty of shops stay open late, but remember that Australians get penalty pay rates for working late. Long may it be so.

Supermarkets in Australia are open all hours. Where I live Woolworths is open from 7 am to 10 pm.

Had the warmest autumn for the last 30 years I have been living in Perth. We are now getting some heavy rain from tornado cyclone. Have a look at Bunbury tornado Perth get humid and sticky hot. But we also get the dry blistering 40c dry heat when the wind blow from the west. I remember going through week long 40+C living at Adelaide when we get wind from the north. That was hot even for someone who came from the tropics

[@michaelgalea4386]

G'day Ryan, I think she is a whingeing pom (Brit). BTW your shirt is okay. Most summers we have had at least one week over 42C. Our Adelaide winter is 14C to 0C. My son lives in Cairns and the weather there is generally 33C and very humid every day.

[@Fiona-zc6oz]

No, she is Aussie but her accent has modified from living O/S

[@None-y2f]

Half.of what she said was positive. Why are Australians so hypersensitive? Kind of proves her point about wussiness doesn't it.

[@GabrielleDurand-md4ev]

I think this video shows how much the areas of Australia differ! You cannot talk about the weather in Australia from one point of view… if you’re Australian you will know this! From city to city the weather varies… And yes, some Australians are obsessed with the weather and will talk about it all day!! In Melbourne we talk about it being too hot, too cold, too windy, too much rain… or not enough rain!!… and that can be all in one day 🤣

[@simmo7670]

This should be her issue with the Gold Coast (sounds like where she is) not Australia. Nearly everything she said has nothing to do with Perth, where I'm at. Also, law of non contradiction?? Australia isn't hot, nek minit, the Sun is so hot! Yeah, that's where the heat comes from....

[@MadMaxine1979]

Exactly.... & I lived on the Gold Coast until 4yrs ago. I don't believe she left her house very often to come up with the 🐂💩 things she said.

[@dianacourt377]

when you looked at the current temperature for Perth it looks like it was at nighttime, and it is Winter here. the daytime average for summer is what you need to look for. maximums ranging from 25 to 37 celsius

looks like she's sitting in a closed room with her aircon on LOL

[@carolynejubber]

I don't where she lived in Australia, but her saying "on that one day of the year when it gets to 42" made me nearly choke on my drink. It's a rare year in Australia that only has one day that hits 42 or more.

[@j.d.l._666]

I bet she lives in exactly that ONE spot of Australia that never gets hotter than 40! 😂 Or she is just completly mental and has no idea! Maybe she is only in Australia when it's Winter and ins summer she is in Singapur!

I've seen kids with their feet wrapped in bandages because they went outside barefoot in summer. I also remember sweat running out of me because of temperatures over 40 for several days in a row. We were living on a property outside Goondiwindi at the time. Also Australians are wussy because they winge about the heat. You often hear people say "Bloody hot one today mate, aye." Is that winging or commenting. Aussies get drunk and fight, but then they are really friendly and will say hi even if they don't know you. Aussies are like licorice allsorts, we're all different, she talks about us like we're all the same. 🤔🙄🤦‍♀️

[@gabbiroos6389]

Unlike the Northern Hemisphere Australia is closer to the sun during our Summer. Everything doesn't shut at 5pm. I live in a rural town, and nothing shuts at 5pm. A few specialist shops close at 5.30 but most close between 6pm and 10pm.

She is in Queensland !! tropical and sub tropical weather HOT and highest skin cancer rates in the world

[@dresdyn100]

She needs to go anywhere north of Brisbane for summer... Humid, every summer. Having worked in hospitality and retail in the past, I can pretty safely say the "secret shopper" industry is booming so staff tend to be at their best most of the time.

[@denisderossi3498]

Australua has one of if not the highest minimum wage and penalty rates for after hours work. Shops are a commercial entity. It isntworth staying open for the convenience of a few.

[@deskynaston1527]

Ryan, she's from Queensland and they're different to other Australians. Opening hours in shops are not as restrictive in other states. It doesn't have to be hot for the sun to burn here.

[@jocelynhunter2359]

I don't really understand why people complain about the closing time. It's really only clothes shops that close at 5 and who needs new clothes at 9pm? Supermarkets are open, restaurants are open, petrol stations... no lockout laws in Melbourne, idk.

[@Weird_Axolotl]

She must really like clothes I guess idk

[@davidb1630]

I would say this girl lived in Tasmania, 🤣 or maybe Victoria. In the the NT they sit all year round at 33 with 98% humidity. Which makes it feel around 40. In rural Australia, it gets to around 38 on average in summer and can sit at that for the whole of January. Where I live in northern NSW we regularly get in summer days of 41 to 45. With nights going all the way down to 33. She has lived in a sheltered igloo. 😁 The east coast of Australia has humidity between 60 to 98% in summer and now it's winter we are sitting on 23 days with humidity ranging from 45 to 85. She is nuts and no wonder people downvoted her, probably has never walked out of her Aircinditiong.

[@naughtscrossstitches]

The problem here with the heat is the hole in the ozone is right above us. You can have the same temperature somewhere else and it doesn't hit the same. There is a reason people say to use our sunscreen not yours from your country.

[@naughtscrossstitches]

Sorry not the hole (it's over antractica) - there is thinning above us though. The sun burns really quickly. But you also look at the other countries on the same lines around the southern hemisphere and look at the normal skin colours. We are mainly qhite european heritage. Every other country at the same point is not. Africa - dark skin, South America - dark skin ... then there are us aussies here with our white as white skin.... yeah we feel it!

[@AussieBradVMX]

And again , where is she from , Brisbane supermarket shops close at 9 pm

[@himynameisryan]

Yes in Australia the UV is so high that it’s unironically off the charts because it exceeds what the standard 0-11 UV chart has, I often get UV 12 or 13 which is so uncommon in other places in the world they just omit it from the charts

[@hybridgoth]

Earths orbit around the sun is eliptical and as a result the earth is considerably closer to the sun during the southern hemispheres summer months.

[@AussieFossil]

And the tilt in the Earth's axis makes the part of the globe where Australia is even closer to the sun in summer.

[@j.f.christ8421]

The orbit is practically circular, it makes no appreciable difference.

[@hybridgoth]

@@j.f.christ8421 I suppose 5 million kilometres or thereabouts, in the grand scale of things isn't very appreciable to some, nevertheless, it does tend to make a difference whether you appreciate it or not. There have been studies to suggest that the variance accounts for an increase in the intensity of solar rays amounting to roughly 7% during the perihelion in January.

[@j.f.christ8421]

@@hybridgoth Draw it as a scale model. The Sun will be a circle of 1.4mm. The average Earth orbit will be 150mm. Draw an ellipse 148x152mm. The Earth of course is a dot being about 0.012mm. That tiny little dot will wobble back & forth about 5mm, or a few percent. It really is "not much". Oz is hot because it's a hot flat desert. Building mountains in WA will fix a lot of things.
