I have to share Michael Cusack's animations[0], they're very funny, appalling, and super-Australian. I've met many Australians who talk exactly like this. It's the most Australian stuff on youtube I've seen.
[0] particularly the Damo & Darren series and the YOLO series, but pretty much all his videos since the first YOLO are amazingly good. (The very short Chuck Her In The Ute is genius.)

Damo & Darren pt 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmL72sgVdAQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmL72sgVdAQ (ha, I just noticed most of the comments are from Australians confirming that it's very realistic)
- ajxs 7y agoIt's worth adding that for foreign viewers that no respectable Australian speaks like this, haha. The train station in the animation is supposed to represent Dapto, which is a lower socio-economic area located a few hours south of Sydney. In my experience, the animation captures the area pretty well.
