Your average American (Me) reacts to What Americans Think of Australia | Welcome To New York! 🗽
Original Video: • What Americans Think o...
It's a mistake to think Aussies aren't loving a show just because we aren't applauding. If anything, the lack of a loud response means we're into what's happening and don't want to disturb it.
Lmao I'm reaaally NOT surprised that they barely know that there are countries outside of the US. 😂😂😂
I know that Americans can be fixated on the dangerous critters in Australia. But living in Australia I've just learned to live with them. Case in point; everyone outside of Australia freaks at the thought of the large Huntsman spiders, and for any arachnaphobes they would be the worst nightmare. But they are harmless. I live in Australia, and whenever a Huntsman spider makes it's way into my house, I leave it be. You see, the Huntsman will keep it's distance. It doesn't spin a web, therefore no mess. And it will keep the summer creepy crawleys away. Non-toxic insecticide, win/win in my books.
Yes, one huntsman is allowed in my home because they are good insect eaters. I often have one in the shower hiding behind the haircare bottles. The last one got evicted to outside, it was a bit aggro when I wanted to get the shampoo.
Well, the Huntsman has all that hair to take of.....
Funny as Australia has no dangerous bears, cougars, Lynxs, coyotes, wolverines etc...
Yeah mate, i think that Huntsman spiders scaring most of the deadly snakes out of the house is worth having at least one in each room of the house is very beneficial. I'm quite used to the rustleing noise they make walking while around the bedroom during the night. Plus, i find them quite pleasent to look at, although, it does put me off a bit when they charge towards you with all their beady eyes staring at you.
You will be happy to know that there is no Alligators in Australia, the Crocodiles ate them.😆
😂our snakes would wipe out the alligators.... Alligators are bait for a 20ft crocodile
🤣🤣🤣
Ha ha Iheard about will the drop bears be next to go?
@stevep2430 Yeah funny how the USA goes on and on about the animals...and then they cite "alligators and crocodiles"...when they're the ones who have the bloody alligators!!! And bears, and wolves, and cougars, and moose, and rattle-snakes, and pythons and sharks & the Black Widow spider and her friends? (And aren't your possums savage?) Someone once told me that yeah, they had those, but only in certain places because the USA is so ginormous. So most people go their whole lives without ever coming across these. At which I asked them if they've ever seen a map of Australia...and left it at that. But I don't think the penny dropped.
Americans don't call their country dangerous, because it's so large and you can avoid the creepy-crawlies and the nasty things. Yet in Australia, at around the same size and the same distribution of wild life in different ecological areas, you have to beat the alligators off before you can catch a passing kangaroo to ride from the Airport to your 5 star hotel. Built high to escape all the bands of snakes which patrol the streets at nightfall!
p.s. when I lived in Africa I was always being asked about the "lions & tigers" that must make our lives hell there.😆😆
I like how we’re living in a dangerous country but put it into perspective. We have big crocs, yes but in the Northern part of our country, doesn’t impact a lot of people. Top 3 deadliest snakes, yep but the inland taipan is very rare and lives in a small uninhabited area of desert land. His cousin, the coastal taipan is a bit more common, but not much. King Browns are aggressive, highly venomous and do habitat residential areas but there is rarely a bite. We have a couple of bad spiders but none that caused many if any fatalities. You guys have bears, wolves, coyotes, bobcats, rabies and 400 million guns! I’d be stuffed if I’m going to the US…..that’s scarier shit than what we deal with…..
People always assume it is just hot in Australia but our snowy mountains receive more snow than the swiss alps.
I had a fantastic time in the US. Most were so friendly and kind. Especially the teenagers who wanted me to teach them “Australian “ 😅
I think he was being sarcastic about the pizza
Australians are some of the most travelled people in the world. Americans are lovely and warm mostly, but not very well educated on the rest of the world. I believe that is changing a little though. I was married to an American who moved from the States at 14 with his family and couldn’t believe how little they had learnt about the rest of the world compared to our knowledge.
No alligators in Australia. No bears, pumas, wolves, moose, Gila monsters, rattle snakes, wolverines and a million other things that will kill you in the US either.
Or lunatics with guns.
What about the dropbears??? Grüße aus Australien.
All in all good video mate
Not sure what everyone is talking about when they say that you can’t go out and get a cheese sandwich or something at 2 in the morning, as I work 24 seven in the hotel industry a few years back for two years straight, and I never had a problem finding food on my breaks
In addition to this Australia has one of the most complex and sophisticated trucking transport industries… Whereas if you go outside the cities where I live, you will find 24 seven truckstops who almost solely cater for truckers and people who want a feed, and they are all over the country
Keep up the great work mate… I can see that your numbers are building, good stuff well deserved👍🏻
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🏻
Thank you for supporting me from the start!

The everything closes early thing is often misleading. I'm in Adelaide Northern suburbs. Here most servos are 24 hours and are effectively mini grocery stores and many have some kind of food franchise, hot dogs, chicken, hungry jacks etc. Some are so big they may have 2 or 3 franchises operating g 24 hours as well as truck stop dining. Closer you get to the city there are places that are open after midnight but most restaurants will close by 9 to 10pm. Grocery stores like woollies, Coles, food lands close at 9pm so shopping isn't hard to do either.
@@anthonyj7989 I'm not in a tourist area. Basic shops close between 6 and 9 weekdays
You can't judge a country's people by meeting them as tourists, they represent a small % of the population who tend to be the bravest
Spot on. The tourists are the richer.... so we as Australians laugh at tourist Americans because they are absolutely clueless
Or the richest, or just old and retired, that’s the classics for the majority of aussies you would see in places like america
@@atriox7221 wrong. Young to middle ages of Aussies visit America. The older generation visit Europe and the Mediterranean. Get a clue
We do have 7 eleven stores so there's always food available 24/7 even mcdonalds has some 24hr stores
Not around here because if the open past 11pm chances are they'll be held up and nine out of 10 would do drive offs.
You meant Maccas and 7chucks.
@@FlattardiansSuck I'm a proper Australian that speaks proper English. I don't call it maccas that's just a lazy way of speaking.
Alligators are from America, we in Australia have crocodiles
Being Australian, I’ve never understood the dangerous animals stereotype, considering America has bears & mountain lions etc. at least here in Australia, the animals don’t hunt you…
extra points for tim tams
We don't have alligators, you have alligators.
I live in Darwin and afew weeks ago I was laying on my couch watching TV when I felt something brush against my back I reached behind me and felt something scalely, I panicked and grabbed it and threw it, I switched on the light and saw a snake slither under the coffee table, I noticed a bite on my finger so I applied a pressure bandage and called 000 ( emergency services in Australia) ambulance arrived and I was taken to hospital, I was in intensive care throwing up as I had been biten by one of Australia's most poisonous snakes, I received 3 doses of anti venom. There was a second bite on my back , I spent afew days in hospital and another week recovering.
When I got home there was the snake on my couch so I called the snake catcher to take it away.
It was not the same snake that bit me.
Why is it such a big deal for Americans to go out at 2am for a feed or a shopping spree? You should be asleep at 2am. It's unhealthy to eat after 7pm and if you need to go shopping that late, then you have other issues too. Go see a doctor!
When I was in the USA, most of the Americans were fairly clueless like these people.
However, I loved the south because they just accepted, they didn't ask questions, they just welcomed me with open arms. NC 4 Eva ❤
You nailed razor blades mate 👍
The movie Crocodile Dundee and it’s star Paul Hogan popularised the phrase Good at mate from 1980s
Razor Blades 😂 1st time I've heard someone say that. Haha
😅😅
There are no alligators in Australia, the crocodiles ate them all centuries ago.
There are NO Alligators in Australia only Crocs.
We've never had a gay Prime Minister, the old fella was just confused.
One of our Prime Ministers(Tony Abbott) had a gay sister & that's where he got confused.
✌️❤️🇦🇺
We had a gay "State Premier", in South Australia - he wasn't that confused! 😏
No Alligators, and no gay pm 😅
bloody ripper, mate
A lots of Aussie's visit the states as alot of similarity in countries values and life styles
My neice and partners been their also my other neice as well she did brazil as well they all loved Hawaii
Cheers fella 🦘🇦🇺👍
Just don’t go to the major cities and think your meeting true Australians. Get a couple of hours out of the cities and that’s where the true Aussies are!
Australia ... best ountry on earth !!!.
Americans & Australians are similar, both frontier countries, alot of english cnnections however Americans are outwardly far more patriotic whereas Australians are far more reserved.
90% of TV is American 😂
Instead of Gday mate….we are more like to greet with..how-ya-goin. Quickly said as one word.
Gay PM? WTF, news to me
We do not have gators, the crocs ate them.
Well there is some evidence of Gillard being bi.
Paul Keating came out a while back.
Apart from cross, we don't have man eaters like USA, bears, mountain lions, cougars etc
As we are so far removed, travel to other countries is pretty normal for us and I have found it very strange when visiting the states on a few occasions that many Americans do not travel outside their country and their education of anything other than their own culture is poor!
Have friends living in NY and love the place to visit
nz and australia are completely different countries with totally different indigenous cultures and nz does not have kangaroos
I'm an Aussie and would prefer to live with our dangerous animals rather than bears or mountain lions.
My daughter went to America with her dad and she didn't like new york, she found it really aggressive and unfriendly, im an Aussie
We have not had a gay Prime Minister though it was said - as an insult about Julia Gillard
Paul Keating came out a while back.
This really highlights the ignorance of many from the USA about other countries.
Nyc is amazing. It went above and beyond my expectations. Plus I takled with Jeremy Renner for 20 minutes not knowing who he was in 2012.
No Gay PM that i know of. USA has had one though. Oh, no Alligators in Aust.
Paul Keating came out once he got sprung after he was PM.
We do not have alligators we have saltwater crocodiles and fresh freshwater crocodiles the freshwater croc is almost harmless.
Eating TimTams for B'fast? Who does THAT? Dangerous animals? Yep. Rule nr.1. - always check your shoes by clopping them hard on the floot before putting your feet in. Snakes and spiders on land; sharkes and poisonous jellyfish in the water.. That's what you have to look out for .But don't forget the crazies that exist. Never hitch- hike and be careful where you pitch a tent or park your RV. Not ALL Australians are honest, friendly and kind.
You aren't Aussie, or you live within 30km of a capital city. Harden up
He had "just kidding" in brackets after talking about Sbarros. I spent a month in NYC in 1981. I stayed with a friend and their family and they were lovely. I found New Yorkers were very helpful when they thought my son was disabled. He was very tall for his age (4 yrs old) and I bought a stroller to cart him around in because we walked everywhere and he got tired and was quite big to carry. People would hold open doors for us, and on the subway, often gave me their seats. I wouldn't have had that in Australia, so I left with a very good impression of most New Yorkers. They were not friendly or helpful at the airport when I arrived as my luggage was lost. And I found them (still do) very impatient on the phone. I have been hung up on by Americans so often without them taking the time to find out exactly what I was talking about or who I wanted to speak with. I find that rude and frustrating. I'm not sure why they relate New Zealand to Australia. We are similar in attitude, but NZ is a completely different country with breathtaking green landscapes and striking mountains and it is nothing like Australia physically.
No jee day mate because it’s an abbreviation for good day, hence g’day.
No gay Prime Minister, there used to be rumours from the opposition but they were just rumours.
I wouldn’t go to the US because I wouldn’t feel safe there. Here in Australia, I can go anywhere and never have to worry about being shot or attacked.
And everyone sounds cockney not Australian 😁
The animals that are responsible for the highest number of deaths in Australia are: 1 Horses: 2 Cattle: 3 Dogs and Kangaroos.
Snake bite victims come before dogs and kangaroos. Snakes kill 2-3 people on average each year. There have been 33 deaths from dogs reported in the past 44 years. There have only been 2 deaths from kangaroos since 1936.
New Zealand ? .......WTF ......Ask the New Zealanders why they ALL want to migrate to Australia.......Having a Gay Prime Minister is Totally NOT Forward thinking.
pretty sure we havnt had a gay prime minister .. but who cares
We don't have alligators. We haven't had a gay Prime Minister but did have a gay state Premier.
Paul Keating!

They're not from Australia they from British
I love americano coffee not often but as an Aussie I prefer my double shot latte
Where is the idea that everything closes early coming from ? Sure out of the cities you'll get early closing (5-6 pm) but you will find fast food and servos open late. In the city you have 24 hr whatever . Aussies do like to get home from work so that we can relax and enjoy are life otherwise what's the point? The accent needs some work,try to but a bit more "nasal" into it eg "Strine ".
I see you don`t get Australian sarcasm
we haven't had a gay prime minister but we had an unmarried atheist female prime minister.
At least it wasn't Lets put another shrimp on the barbie
we say Ra ez er .. sounds like three syllables but the first syllable is a long sound
I say it more like “rayzerblade”, all run together as one word, of course.
You need to practise your accent mate. Been to America several times and loved it.
Tbh most of our Prime Ministers seem gay to me.
Lot of misinformation and over use of dangerous animals Should save their comments until gaining further correct knowledge of Australia outside the capital cities
Our state of Victoria is pared to California in comparison. Gold Coast in queensland is Australia's Florida keys
Hhmmm I’m thinking NSW is a bit more like Southern Cali and Victoria is North Cali because of the weather….
@@evaadams8298 weather Victorian coastal weather is nice and warm lately most of the rain lately hits nsw before hitting victoria
Mate, this bloke was “taking the piss” when talking about the New York sites. Grüße aus Australien. Tschüss.
Lack of education is embarrassing for Americans.... sadly.
