SNOW!?!?? Do you guys even know what snow is?????

Oh man, those are so crazy pictures. Like the one where the tree squashed the car...

Yeah they're lucky it didn't blow the other way and landed on the house...

and the one where the car was flipped on its roof...

Those lightning photos are awesome.. I wish I could take lighting photos but I think at the same time I'd be too scared to be outside to take them...

apparently the wind speed was 161km/h which was equiv to a cat 2 cyclone?

I knew what was going to happen and I still jumped....

I'm having trouble trying to tell what size they are lol

Octopi are so scary. I think if humans hadn't evolved first, octopi would have been the dominant species on Earth.

I didn't know they eat crabs! How do they digest the shell? Or they just rip it apart and eat the flesh...

The girl should have went into the water and filmed that part too.

Lol reading back through the thread...

2 yrs later, this warning is still helpful~ I had the article opened up in a new tab but crossed it out when I saw this hahahaha

HAHAH that's too cute xD I want to find a Quokka

that's the animal that didn't want to take a photo with me at the zoo! not sure if you rememebr aahah they're the ones with a really long tail and sits on them.

Yeah I remember hahaha

You need to meet a more trendy quokka who wants to take a selfie~

yeahahahaha

more crazy octopi videos !!!

wow.... but I wonder why that octopus preferred to stay in the jar? haha

I never thought of them as scary.. but seeing that thing escape the small hole.. yeah I agree with you now...

@aL - go find some gold!!

No need, I already have a heart of gold

AUSTRALiA IS SO SCARY


At the end, I expect the spider to come alive again and jump at the camera.

Is it a bit sus that someone would film themselves smacking a spider?!

This sums up Sydney's weather in the last 2 days..

This gif of Australia is so interesting..

It looks like Australia has gone back and forth on how they want to divide up their provinces for a long time...

I didn't know Jarvis Bay is a separate territory...

loll

OMG this is so beautiful!

Southern Lights put on a spectacular show over Australia

HAHAHA someone captioned this picture: "HOT ROAD... HOT ROAD... OUCH!"

HAHAHAHHAHA

I wish I saw the southern lights!! but I bet you had to be out in woop woop to see them...

I think Byron Bay is the place to be for Southern Light...

Apparently the sunset photo that I took was actually the night of Southern Light, 10 mins after I took the photo the sky went bright red.. that was probably part of the Southern light and I didn't even know!!

So pretty! Looks like bloody mist to me.

The biggest tragedy is Chipotle.

And maybe IHOP.

http://www.buzzfeed.com/sandrab4c41b...lia-needs-r7zo

oh and Panda Express.

i haven't been to most of those...

there are tons of IHOP alternatives, but nothing can replace Chipotle.

I don't see anything on that list that I can't find a similar replacement for here...

Whoever wrote that hasn't eaten in Australia before...


What we need is Mister Donut from Japan...

I'd rather have street food vendors like in Asia

There's a lot of food trucks in the US! There's actually a chain of really famous food trucks that might have started to expand internationally. They do Halal food.

Unfortunately our food and safety standards will never allow street food vendors...

food trucks are also becoming a thing in Sydney

Oh yeah we're doing a lot more pop-up restaurants..
