Why Do Aussie Trucks Have Bullbars?

bremnet says...

The camper van we rented in Brisbane to drive to Darwin had a bull bar and a downward deflecting heavy screen just along the bottom of the windshield. We wondered why until we got to the other side of Longreach and saw the aftermath of a big red kangaroo going through the windshield of a panel van, still alive and kicking - kicking enough in its panic to kill the driver as it thrashed about trying to get away from it's predicament. The down angled heavy screen is to 'deflect' the road vermin down away from the cab and windshield. Not as much fun as hitting a moose, but fun nontheless.

Why Do Aussie Trucks Have Bullbars?

Meh, you really don't. It's tough and not very tasty. Crocodile OTOH is delicious.

And he's not kidding about driving at night. Years ago, I drove from Sydney to Perth. I was always told not to drive at night, but one day the engine overheated a few hours from the nearest town. Got it going again, but had to drive in the dark for a few hours. Was lucky to miss a large desert red kangaroo, but unfortunately hit a wallaby. Pretty gruesome trying to extract it from the bullbars.

After watching this video I had to look up information about camels in Australia. Then I had to look up descriptions of eating camel meat.

Now I want to eat a camel.

Melbourne in the 1940s

NirnRoot says...

I dunno, I was sort of disappointed. It looks pretty much like any generic 1940s city. I guess I was expecting more in the way of diesel-punk kangaroos or something.

Kangaroo On Steroids

newtboy says...

Good point, but as I said above, the other video of him was labeled 'double muscled kangaroo', and I've never seen a boomer that looked like this. I think he's a mutant.

Fantomas said:

As far as I know, this is actually normal for a dominant male red kangaroo. The alpha male of each mob gets breeding rights with the females can get enormous in size.
They're nicknamed 'boomers' for a reason.

I think so. One of the other videos of him was titled 'double muscled kangaroo'.

Kangaroo On Steroids

Shit Steve Harvey says

lantern53 says...

I thought this site was for quality videos, not opportunities to show people at their worst.

I stand corrected.

But I should have known better when a kangaroo fight scores higher than something cultural.

Kangaroo fights must last for days. Cursed with those tiny upper limbs, all of their power is in their legs, which only connect blows with the torso. Badass matrix-like tail bouncing leg shots and all it results in is a silly slap fight. This is so sad and so hilarious.

Meanwhile in Australia

TheFreak says...

It's even better if you imagine the dialogue.
The first kangaroo shows up at his girlfriend's house unannounced to find his roommate there.

"Come at me mate!"

Vagina golf course bad. Penis parades good -- in Japan

SDGundamX says...

Just so it's clear, if a dude scanned his junk and sent it to people he'd probably be arrested too. Article 175 of the Japanese legal code prohibits the distribution of "indecent" materials which has traditionally been interpreted to mean "porn" and that's probably how the police are viewing this case--as porn distribution.

Also, those penis parades are fertility festivals and they have vagina counterparts. Do a Google image search for "Hime no miya matsuri" and prepare to have your mind blown at the complete lack of hang-ups Japanese people have about genitalia.

Therefore, it's basically a legal issue, not a cultural one. Because Japan's constitution technically does not allow censorship (Article 21) this lady might have a case if she can convince the courts that she's engaged in art and not commerce. Then again, the courts here are total crap shoots and I sometimes think you'd have a better chance of finding justice in some 3rd world kangaroo court than the Japanese court system.

The cutest animal you've never heard of

I love them!!! They seem so clumsy though, it's a wonder they don't fall out of trees.

Your question prompted me to do some research and this is what I found out after exploring that youtube channel's other videos:

Lumholtz's Tree Kangaroos are a unique Australian species that are found in select, tropical rainforests of north Qld.

They're very cute

There's a red tree kangaroo in Melbourne Zoo, but they look a bit different. I wonder if these are the Australian ones? There are some that live in PNG and others that live in far northern Australia.
