OUTBACK TRUCKERS

Did anybody see it last night when the body of that trl carrying bulls moved forward,WTF :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth:

I liked the way the bloke casually mentioned how he got kicked in the head Seth.

’ Yeah mate,i got a fractured skull,broken jaw,etc etc…’

What about that bull ,sports summat,that thing was the devil on 4 legs,it had pure red eyes :open_mouth: it was a shabby carryon with crap tackle how they were going to TRY and get the livestock all that way, :cry:

Yeah. Nasty,foul tempered, and built like a tank.

Reminds me of my ex.

Reminds me of my ex too

Lucky the escaped bull wasn’t in a built up area as most times they have to be shot. Had one the other week. Vets advise not to dart it as it takes a little time for the drug to kick in.
Don’t know what the drivers going to do when he finds it, out on his own with a torch.

outback truckers is ok for entertainment but as with all reality programmes,[inc supertruckers]they overdramatize it,the presenter allways says along the lines of THIS SITUATION[whatever it is] IS GOING TO BE HARD,WILL HE /SHE DO IT all dramatic style,and when you look at it there is allways plenty of room,gets a bit boring after a while

The best ā€œover dramatic,play it up,oh my godā€ moment was on stobarts trucks and trailers. Guy had a gas powered truck. The fuel light is showing red. There’s only 4 petrol stations that supply the needed gas. He has 50 miles till the nearest one. With no gas the truck will be going no where and his load will be late. Will he make it? Its all so scary. Watch the fuel guage,its nail biting stuff. Hardly any gas left. Oh no,what will he do? Keeping watching the fuel guage nervously,music getting louder. Still 25 miles away. ā– ā– ā– ā– ,whats going to happen. I cant watch. Im looking through my fingers. Chusion in front of my face. Im sweating. Drivers sweating too. I feel I may faint.
ā€œAnd thats it,ive ran out of gas. Truck is running on diesel fuel now till I get to the petrol station.ā€
Eh? all that drama and he had a full tank of diesel for when gas ran out?
That surely was the moment when ESTAT finally ran out of stuff to make the programme unique and interesting.
That coupled with the guy who delivered the rally car tyres and got a shot in the rally car. Yes,because A- a £250,000 car is left parked in an industrial estate and B - Drivers almost always get to spend half an hour after a delivery trying stuff out. Its what made that programme so fly on the wall believable

If it wasn’t over-dramatised, you’d get bored a lot sooner.

Everytime he has a night out he starts rubbing his eyes and blubbering,on friday night his son has supposed to have broke his arm,when he skyped him there was mention of the arm and no pot or bandage ,what about the inbreds who shag bees :laughing: :laughing:

I reckon its a sting.

Bit daft the Yogi across the bottom drama, yes its a long way, but paved all the way & its not exactly a deserted highway, I’ve driven across & round Oz & blimey it is really dull on the bottom bit, is a section called 90 mile straight, but you can’t tell where it ends of begins it’s pretty near straight for the whole way across the middle! the Steve Graham stuff on a prev series when he was right up in the mud of the North was cracking TV, mental to be hauling 80 odd tonnes & 3 trailers on Dirt & then the nasty mud roads that were so bad I’d not be too happy in a 4x4 car on them!

It’s no road train, more bhp! but would be a tad messy with a Kangaroo at that speed!

I saw a series of Steve digging out his 3rd trailer that had got stuck in some river crossing where crocs were lurking ! :open_mouth: He’s some grafter,the star of the show,imho.
