From the weather, the ecosystem to the human factor, Australia always makes the whole world both headache and funny when doing everything is paradoxical to the whole world.
Do you remember about ten years ago, on TV or there were programs “Australian paradox” , which showed funny footage of other strange phenomena occurring on this strange continent.
Due to its special location in the Southern Hemisphere, with many countries around the world, the weather in Australia is always in the opposite state. Granted, it’s not surprising that it’s hot here and cold there, but the funny thing is that when the Northern Hemisphere is super cold, Australia will be… super hot. And when the countries in the Northern Hemisphere are melting fat, Australia will be super cold. For example, today, June 19, when all of the Northern Hemisphere is having weather fluctuating in the range of sunshine to melting fat (with 33 degrees Celsius weather measured in Washington, 27 degrees C measured in Tokyo, 31 degrees C measured in Mumbai and as high as 36 degrees C in Hanoi) is not surprising, Australia is becoming a territory of snow and cold. On June 19, Melbourne was currently the coldest city in the world with a temperature of -4 degrees Celsius, while Sydney was also covered in snow and cold rain.
While many cities around the world are full of sunshine, even hot today…
Well, as usual, Australia is covered in snow for it to be different.
Cold rain and snow covered the city of Melbourne, lowering the temperature to -3 to -4 degrees Celsius, while Sydney was also covered in snow and ice.
Going back to the beginning of this year. The Americas and Europe in the first months of 2018 were flooded with ice, bombarded by constant blizzards with frozen rivers, and stalled traffic. Surely we still haven’t forgotten when blizzard bombs swept over the US, many sharks froze to death and were washed ashore in a frozen state; Many iguanas also died of cold and fell from the trees.

And as a bonus, in January of this year, Australia… melted the fat. According to News.com.au, the temperature in many places in Australia reached… 47 degrees Celsius on January 7 earlier this year, causing some localities in the continent to have to order firewood precautions. fire, it is forbidden to gather firewood outdoors to avoid fire.

Due to the toxic weather, the ecosystem in Australia is equally terrifying , when the animals of this country sometimes become a constant threat to human life. In Australia, the story of kangaroos knocking on the door to ask for a fight, crocodiles crawling on the golf course or poisonous spiders and snakes entering the house to nest is so familiar that readers only need to see a few strange things. animals is known in advance that the news was received from Australia. We have got:
Crocodile 6m long leaps up to attack tourists…
Super poisonous box jellyfish, just one sting is enough to send a person to the altar…
Venom spider Atrax robustus, the king of venom of New Southwale. A single bite of this spider is essentially fatal in a very short time.
Don’t forget that great white sharks – ocean killers – are also always on the coast of Australia…
At one time, more than 60% of snakebites in Australia resulted in death. Fortunately, the technology to prepare antidotes has made some progress, Australians now still encounter snakes every day but are less likely to die from snake bites.
And because the great white shark is not yet scary enough, the Australian waters are favored by nature, including this white-eyed bull shark. This shark has been rated as the scariest animal on the planet by Ranker.com.
Times make heroes, and because nature is so harsh, Australians are also tougher and braver (or perhaps more reckless) than other continents. Surely we still remember the story of a young Australian punching a kangaroo with bare hands that went viral on the internet last year. If you think kangaroos are cute and gentle marsupials in cartoons, you might want to reconsider, because in real life they look like this…
Bathing in springs for a little more powerful internal work, right?
The above image was taken by Mr. Jackson Kingsley Vincent at Boodjidup Creek, near the Margaret River. This young kangaroo seems to be enjoying a “deep meditation” session and doesn’t seem to like being disturbed at all. The muscles of the Shaolin-style kangaroo look quite scary with big abs, shoulder shoves and muscular biceps, ready to use moves with any master who dares to rudely disturb the moment of immersing in internal force. .
Because kangaroos give birth too disorganized, the Australian government even ordered people to… hunt this ferocious animal for food. And indeed, some Australians have tried hunting and eating Kangaroo meat, and then concluded that what meat is both tough and boring…
Kangaroo steak, something that only happens in Australia…
Recently, on a street in Australia suddenly appeared a person dressed as Deadpool character of Marvel movies / comics, fighting with another topless man. Is the fact that a comic character suddenly appears to fight and fight, perhaps also a specialty of Australia?
Giving up X-force for a walk? It sounds very similar to the “muddy” personality of the real Deadpool.
It is known that the identity of this “fake” Deadpool is Jake Bingham, a man living in Cairns (Australia), who specializes in dressing up as a Deadpool comic character to attract attention and seek fame. And so he also became famous when he appeared in many different newspapers with this unique brawl. Not only dealing with nature issues themselves, Australians often appear with silly pranks like this.
Australians are generally known for their fun and laid-back personalities. Due to the influence of the process of settling in this harsh land, Australian residents are also naturally much more resilient and optimistic than other countries (see the crocodiles above). So even if the weather is difficult, the animals are scary, Australia is still an interesting paradoxical continent with the most admirable people in the world.
