The Wonders Down Under.



Australia "The Wonders Down Under" commercial circa 1984 featuring the legendary Paul Hogan [wiki]. Hoges is promoting Australia to the USA to get Americans to holiday in Australia and he uses the line "I'll slip an extra shrimp on the barby for ya" which is where the infamous stereotypical line "throw a shrimp on the barby" that American shows overused came from.

I love the Vietnam War atrocity-style human ear being offered for sale just above this article.

Pro tip: Collecting human ears has always been a bit dodgy.
