    As an Australian, I always find it both confusing and alarming when the outside world suddenly pays attention to my country.
  • This is like an It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode. "I'm never gonna go bushranging again!" ((title screen flashes)) Ned Goes Bushranging Again
  • @you_just
    "Ned vows never to go bushranging again." "Join us next time as Ned goes bushranging again."
  • @jeepmega629
    Fun Fact: During the Syria-Lebanon campaign of ww2, there was an Australian cavalry unit named after Ned Kelly. It was called " The Kelly Gang " and would go on to fight for 3 weeks throughout Syria.
  • @goldenppsh41
    Imagine a video game about Ned Kelly, it'd be like Red Dead Redemption but in Australia, that'd be sick.
  • As an Australian, it always surprises me when the outside world takes an interest in our history. Most of the time, its an uphill battle just to make sure the rest of the world remembers we exist.
  • @garblechunk
    "Harry Power wasn't much of a Bushranger." I dunno, anyone who can convince his would-be victims to let him go seems pretty damn capable to me!
  • @Grizabeebles
    Wait, wait ,wait. Just been reading the comments. Is this really a story about a real life 1800s Australian steampunk Iron Man? Okay, Australia just won history. I've seen enough.
  • As an Australian, I can confirm that Ned Kelly is not only a legend, but a hero to this day
  • If they ever make a Fallout game set in Australia, while Mad Max would certainly be fun I could definitely see a whole faction dedicated to Ned Kelly
  • @blitzwaffe
    If Harry Power was a Bushranger, I guess that make him a Power Ranger ;)
  • @AegixDrakan
    ...Are you serious. Sitting up on top of the cliff to make plans, in BROAD DAYLIGHT? In plain sight?! WOW those two are hopeless. I'm eager to see how this gets turned around. XD
  • @Blakdutchman
    Yay for Australian History! As an Australian, this makes me really happy. We learned about Ned Kelly and Bushrangers in Primary School, but not in a whole lot of detail. It'll be interesting to hear this channel's take on the subject.

    Where's my Aussies at!? --In bed it's 2am-4am... Unless you are a true Extra Credits fan!
  • A true blue Aussie icon! What a wonderful man to do a series on, thank you guys!
  • @brandic648
    Quentin Tarantino should write and direct a movie based on Ned Kelly and his gang. That would be epic.
