Don't try to make sense of teens getting the gak blown out of themselves.

Nah, it's like Bikini Atoll. We found the last truly beautiful paradise on Earth.

QUICK! BLOW IT UP!

What exactly is that video supposed to do? Teach teenagers the dangers of throwing away your map? Teach range safety staff the dangers of not making sure that your range is clear? Spoof? Click bait?

It makes a lot more sense in context. In Australia, your only options are school or an active artillery testing range.

Im not sure its artillary. I think it might be land mines.

Remember, this is Australia we are talking about. The whole darn place is lethal. They could be exploding dune clams and I wouldn't be suprised. And if you survive the blast, you are probably going to end up poisoned.

No, it's artillery. If you listen closely, you can hear the whistle.

Homing Drop Bear bombs.
The next stage in furry warfare.

So the artillery only killed a single person with a shot? Damn that stuff is accurate.

Moreover, what kind of sick feths are aiming at cute Aussie girls in bikinis?

I thought it would be about date rape or something...

I'm telling you, it was a drop bear with dynamite strapped onto it.
The Aussies are taking military advice from Orks, it would seem

Aren't there like a bajillion nightmarish murderbeasts over there that probably would have eaten them for roaming off the beaten path anyway? Frankly, I'm surprised they even made it to the beach without getting poisoned or made the nursery for some kind of hellish devil-wasp I've never even heard of but which surely haunts my dreams... *shudder*

I like how you get blown up for any kind of slacking off though, not just cutting class. C+? Send them to the "beach".

My backyard, in all its 6 or so feet squere, could kill people. I wAs once bitten by a mega-drop-venom-tooth-sharp-bellied-orange-spider- sheep.

It's all in good fun , however there do seem to be some particular nasties over there. Worst I gotta look out for is a couple of kinds of spider and deer crossing the road at night.

And eaton your own hand after getting scratched by an armadillo.

10/10, would show to my kids

They're totally stepping on landmines.

I think it's supposed to mean stay in school so that you learn to read.


And that you learn to identify warning signs for explosive testing sites. Because you know, that's not obvious from the skull and crossbones.

Well, that's what happens when stupid and alchahol mix.
Frankly, if an area is fenced off then you should ensure that you know why it is.

And running through a Minefield? Sure way of getting blown to hell and back.

Still, I couldn't stop laughing and the gore effects where great - horror movie writers, take note - you could learn something!
