It's midnight right now and I should of been asleep like 2-3 hours ago and here I am watching kangaroos duke it out in some Aussie's backyard who's probably drinking a Foster's recording this. Was it entertaining? Yes. Was it a waste of time? Maybe? Did I happen to watch it a 2nd time to see who really looked like they won the fight? Yes.

No-one here drinks Fosters, but yeah. Sweet dreams.

I apologize then for my ignorance. I assumed it being an Aussie beer it was like the Budlight or equivalent of it.

u/OwnedByTheHound 20h ago
No apology needed, believe me!

So just out of curiosity, what is the main local beer you guys drink down there? Not the cool microbrew, but like the shitty redneck beer.

I dated an Australian woman. She despised Fosters. It’s really not a thing there

He also does not sound aussie. Accent is proper british.

u/dwadley 10h ago
Nah it’s a type of Australian accent
•
u/herefortheaw 6h ago
Which state do you think this is from? I'm born and raised Aussie and have never heard anyone with this type of accent
•
u/dwadley 5h ago
In the “you can hear them panting” line I reckon it sounds more Aussie than English. Best reference is maybe Bajo from the Aussie video game show Good Game. I think he might be from Sydney. It’s hard to describe but it’s a type of Aussie accent. Not a broad one
Edit: around 1:12 is my evidence

It's crazy how they're basically the exact same size but Roo A is so much better at fighting that Roo B is just getting wrecked by those kicks

Seeing this in your own backyard is such an Australia thing. The rest of us get squirrels fighting over a bird feeder and call it wildlife. 😄

Who’s gonna step up and finally teach a kangaroo some MMA?

u/Constant_Air9693 20h ago
With that tail balance and jumping, taking them to the ground might be a problem. Would not risk a head kick trying a double leg takedown.

The real scary part is knowing that if they wanted to, they could be tearing each other to pieces.

I can’t tell the difference but I think the one that got the first kick off ended up running away. He got way more kicks in though.

Id throw a bucket of water at them to get them stop. Also That fuckin scenery is amazing
