The best part of Australia is when people fact checks their research on our Country before uploading Misinformation to over 28 Million People.

@@JohnJ469 Yes, totally. I waited - in vain - for some or at least one of those trivia-game style "keep-your-attention-focused-to-*something*-while-driving" roadside signs, which i learned about - guessed it? - somewhere here on UA-cam...
It's true just completely different to the way they describe it and I think it's not just in Australia it's like one of those things you know your on the weird side of the internet its blown out of proportion
As someone who lives in Australia...….. you absolutely cannot tear a ten dollar note in half. In fact, shops are not obligated to take any notes that have rips or tears in them, and your best bet is to go to the bank with a torn note and ask them to replace it.
The signs with animals aren’t for entertainment when you are on a long drive they are there to tell you to look out and be careful because those animals can go on the road
The world: Australia has kangaroos every where, everyone has boomerangs, they can all play the digereedo and they all talk like ths "G'day mate! Wanna come over and chuck a shrimp on the barbie? And have U seen my boomerang?" Australia: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲
I’ve lived in Australia my whole life with my whole family and I’ve never seen or heard about the $10 note split in half to make $5 or the granny thing
Okay, Bright Side. You need a bit of help, mate. First off, We do have those Trivia Questions you mentioned, you just showed our road warning signs instead. They let us know to look out for animals depicted on the signs because they live in the area. Second, We're not allowed to rip a $10 note in half and use it as two fives. We can tape it back together and use it as $10, as long as the rip isn't through the serial number. Third, I've lived in Brisbane almost my whole life and have never heard of, or competed in a cockroach contest. Fourth, We call them Ugg Boots too, you honestly think we'd skip a chance to nickname something?. I think not.
Cockroach races have been an annual event at the Story Bridge hotel for many, many years. I covered it for at least 6 years when I worked for the local paper.
Lies all lies Him: signs are for entertaining Me: what do mean it’s for it’s for awareness for animals that cross the road I’m offended because I’m Australian
I think they have done it for views. to know about Australia we should ask australian people BTW I am not australian. I have to ask a question that in an Australian fact video there was a fact that there is a ritual of exchanging each other's wife and husband is it true?
apparently the person making this vid has never been to australia 😭😭😭 the fact that he said there is random pictures of animals on the side of the ride made me wheeze
Believe it or not the trivia question s are real in fatigue zones but the pictures of animals are to warn you that that animal is more common in the area. And yes I live in Australia.
Veronica Henriquez and even if you do they don’t get accepted as two separate $5 bills. The only way they can be of use again is if you take them to a bank to get a new one.
It’s honestly a testament to the lack of effort put into this video. For everyone who actually cares to know, it’s called the Nullarbor (as in Null Arbor - no trees) and you pronounce it NULL-er-bor.
Those signs of native animals are because those animals randomly decide to jump in front of cars so its telling people to slow down because you might hit one
Ive lived in Brisbane all my life but only recently got an invite to a cockroach race meeting. I cant tell yo the location ....I was sworn to secrecy. Nah mate ....just Pullin your leg. I do think they do it at the Birdsville races,
Brightside... get your facts straight, man... I am Australian, and have never IN MY LIFE heard of rent-a-grandma, entertaining road signs, or ripping a 10 dollar note in half...
@@jettwalton9297 Its a federal offence to deface and/or damage money with the intent to defraud or to force the government to replace the damaged bills with new ones.

Hahahah oh man. I can just imagine how confused a shop owner would be after you buy $5 worth of groceries and then try to pay with a $10 note thats been ripped in half. Yeah. I'm australian..we don't do that 😂 Our money is literally made of plastic to prevent it from getting ripped.
Lots of countries use plastic notes. Most modern countries I'm familiar with do. As opposed to USA which still uses flimsy paper notes that all look the same. It annoys me when I'm there and you look in your wallet and can't tell how much money you have without actually looking at the face of each note.
No some of them are true, like the giant statues and the Esperance one. I live in Esperance, so, although it sounds weird, we actually fined them $200 for littering
That is completely wrong. The road signs placed on the side of the country roads over here in Australia ain't there to keep us amused because there's nothing to see, there litterally there for safety reasons. Like the possum and koala signs. That's to tell us to keep an out because they are known to cross the road
I've lived in Australia for my whole life, and I don't think I've ever heard someone call the country 'Straya' except in American shows when they are trying to impersonate Australians
3:54 no that is incorrect. I have lived in Australia my whole life and can confidently tell you that you cannot cut a $10 bill in half to make two $5 bills. Where did you get that from...
Number 7, we drive our cars from the right hand seat, not the left as you have shown. You cannot under any circumstances tear a banknote in half and present it as 1/2 of that amount. You can in some circumstances use a damaged note as the full amount as long as you have more than 1/2 of it. This does not apply everywhere, and is generaly frowned upon. Cops, set a crim to catch a crim they say. I can't believe you are dissing the Drop Bears!
Wow! How “acuarate“! lol this is so offenice to us Austrailians.the money tearing thing? Wrong, the “jokes on signs?“ NO. The signs are there to WARN you and keep you (and the wildlife) SAFE.
Hey there, BrightSiders! What’s the coolest thing about Australia, in your opinion?

there is a lot of misinformation in this video I'm kinda surprised by the lack of actual fact checking effort in this. Just like the road signs
I agreed, those road signs are not for entertaining, Who wrote the script for this video?
Yeah do more research to the person who Wright’s the scripts
Since when can you use half a 10 dollar note as $5???
I have seen Trivia signs on roads, but not those signs shown in the video, actual trivia
Those signs that are “put there to entertain drivers” are actually to warn you to slow down for endangered wildlife.

*cockroach dancing*
No it’s not dude , who watches pigs race
As an Australian, I can truly say… IVE NEVER HEARD OF COCKROACH RACING, RENTING GRANDMAS OR ENTERTAINING ROAD SIGNS!!!
roach racing & trivia roadsigns do exist, but only in very limited areas. The grandma's got me, closest I can think of would be "hire a hubby"
The signs along the road, DO NOT have the use of “trivia or jokes” they are there for a WARNING. NOT FOR TRIVIA OR JOKES! Come on BrightSide
😂
Idk where they got it from 🙄
The trivia signs are for keeping drivers awake
i have seen trivia questions on signs in central queensland.
LOL me thinking about how I’ve never seen a joke/trivia question on a sign
I’m an Aussie to and I have never been assaulted that hard before in my life

you can get fined up to a hundo bucks if you tear the money in half

I AM MAD EVEN IF I’M NOT FULLY AUSTRALIAN, AND I DON’T CARE IF YOU SAID AUSTRALIA IS GREAT
Ty for so much likes!
I'm pretty sure you can't tear a 10 dollar note in half and use it as five dollars but you can tape it back together and not get in trouble
Yeah never heard of that before. I don't think you tear a ten-dollar note and use it as 5
Yea, tomorrow I'll try 🤭🤭🤭
Actually I've never known of anyone who can tear a $10note in half fullstop!
Thats why they're plastic!!
ClissaT scissors work easily
@@sumpkin2834 the operative word is "tear"! ;)
That is completely wrong. The road signs placed on the side of the country roads over here in Australia ain't there to keep us amused because there's nothing to see, there litterally there for safety reasons. Like the possum and koala signs. That's to tell us to keep an out because they are known to cross the road
For the thumbnail I thought it was

Bahahahahaha true lol
Save that for the tassies

I've lived in Australia for my whole life, and I don't think I've ever heard someone call the country 'Straya' except in American shows when they are trying to impersonate Australians
no we do call it that over here in the aussie country
You live under a rock. It is Straya.
Straya is a short way of saying it.
Just the bogans
@@mzcyberbat lol
I live in Australia and I didn't even know you could hire a nanny
This has to be a joke right?
Its not they just know nothing about australia
“If you tear a $10 bill in half you can use it like a five dollar bill.”
As an Australian I have never scene this before.
Lol half the “facts” in this are just wrong
Yep
Yes
we dont have water we’re in a middle of a drought
permanently. Except when it floods. It's either flood or drought.
Bruh the “trivia’s” are just a caution sign that wildlife is near
I’m aussie and I’ve never herd of rent a nanny
The “random” statues aren’t random some of them are landmarks
big banan
Yea
Too true
3:54 no that is incorrect. I have lived in Australia my whole life and can confidently tell you that you cannot cut a $10 bill in half to make two $5 bills.
Where did you get that from...

I think he means that Aussies call a barbeque a barbie, i'm Australian btw

@@TT10Kofficial yes
Number 7, we drive our cars from the right hand seat, not the left as you have shown. You cannot under any circumstances tear a banknote in half and present it as 1/2 of that amount. You can in some circumstances use a damaged note as the full amount as long as you have more than 1/2 of it. This does not apply everywhere, and is generaly frowned upon. Cops, set a crim to catch a crim they say.
I can't believe you are dissing the Drop Bears!
As an australian, i love watching video’s like this, its interesting to see what other countries think of australia
Yeh same
same with me
Same
Wow! How “acuarate“!
lol this is so offenice to us Austrailians.the money tearing thing? Wrong, the “jokes on signs?“ NO. The signs are there to WARN you and keep you (and the wildlife) SAFE.
That’s not true like if your Australian like and know these are
NOT TRUE
Edit: some are true :) srry for caps
Yep
Some of them are true.
never let an AMERICAN say Aussie only us Aussies know how to say it
