[BrianLinstick]

What a fucking lad

[jeffbro2]

The same worthless little git he has been all his life but at least he is consistent.

[Rodee3074]

never to old hey Hawky!!...god bless ya man!

[TheApache101]

Lol i liked the copers smile

[dusted04]

ditch gillard and get this bobby back in !

[123assviolater]

Like how it's under the category : News and politics

[GravityProductionz]

THAT IS FCKING CLASS U BEAUDY! LOL

[sessi0000]

Haha was awesome to see him do that. Thank God I'm Australian lol.

The best moment for me was even the cops and guards were even getting into it haha

[MyUsername156]

I feel strangely proud watching this

[cunt708]

what a fucking champ

[hirdy6]

I love the look on Bob's face when he zeros in on the beer, it's like 'Hello old friend'

[jessgasm]

What if someone had spiked that drink?!

[obglobgablob]

@jessgasm

NOBODY SPIKES BOB HAWKE'S DRINK!

[crocodile2006]

@jessgasm Yes I heard there may have been alcohol in it

[1man4RBE]

These are My People.

[doobbz]

[superkev12345678]

Shit...not a bad effort for an 82 year old

[batboman]

Total respect

[metaRLinfo]

@Mearstone How completely ignorant do you have to be to not realize that there are different dialects in the English language and that there are differences in definitions. Apparently you need to go back to school. I doubt you ever completed it in the first place.

[joelzy12]

best video ever BOB Legend !!!

[MrSimonTaylorEnt]

@MrSimonTaylorEnt why is this comment not at the top damnit!?

[Adlerhelldog]

Fuck some of our politicians today should follow this example, have a beer and stop trying to fuck us over so much...

[jcn9122]

Fuck it, I'm moving to Australia

[mikalakicevic]

The greatest Aussie video I've ever seen! Haha!!

[gooberwench]

And to everyone who bleats about him ruining the country - he turned super from an old boys' "golden handshake" into an everyday right for all Aussies. He was selfish in his private life but he sticks up for workers - what do you want most from a PM?? Nobody's perfect so I'll take a fair deal over digging around in his bedroom.

[gooberwench]

Heh with all his foibles - gotta love the man!! I had a wine with him once and it was a lifetime highlight.

[wwalert]

Good ole fashion good times, I love it, anywhere over these parts and there'd be ten security guards scanning that cup before he was 10 feet near it.

[ImVicsHusband]

@manlyfanatic - so true!

[shan898923]

Like a fucking boss.

[spike51234]

can someone bring up to speed on Australia's politics?

[bigswano]

@spike51234 pm 1983-1991, enjoyed drinking.

[hellooooo000]

@spike51234 bring you up to speed on Australia's politics spike? ok...

well currently we have one of the best progressive govts (ALP-Green coalition) oz has seen being slammed by one big d-bag of an opposition leader (Liberal National Party) with his conservative cronies in the corporate and media worlds doing his bidding - bitching all the time and offering no better alternatives. Alas, the Cons have the Progs all sewn up to win the next election which is in the latter part of next year.

[LegendLength]

@hellooooo000 I can tell you never saw Beazley in opposition. Might open your eyes a bit seeing his 'positive' contributions.

[hellooooo000]

@LegendLength I saw Beazley in action, why be so presumptuous about the past?

[LegendLength]

@hellooooo000 Because everything you (and thousands of other lefties) say about abbot's 'negativity' applies exactly to labour when they're in opposition. Sickening double standards.

[hellooooo000]

@LegendLength I am not arguing w/ someone that doesn't know what they're talkin about (let alone can't spell Labor). Happy Oz Day - Keep drinkin' :D

[LegendLength]

@hellooooo000 Thanks. But next time you 'bring someone up to speed' with politics try to keep it from being 100% biased :)

[netsight]

@hellooooo000 ..let alone can't spell .. every aussie knows that one, geez look it's spelt like this: (IPA) english pronunciation key = /ˈleɪ.bɚ/ spells: DEBT ;)~

[scottclements78]

@hellooooo000 Nicely summed up

[pyromanizak]

@spike51234 a womens running our country, nuff said.

[kaarankin69]

Bob hawke and Kevin Rudd is the Best Australian prime minister we ever had. Bob Loves his Drinks and Kevin loves the strippers

[Yomr8]

I have never been prouder to be an Australian. I love a sunburnt country.

[mrminimatic]

bob for P.M.

[LeonMrG]

Beers are $6.60 at the cricket, we need this man as prime minister to put a stop to this !

[marzzbar]

I love this

[larebz]

that's class!! haha

[tucker3601]

Hawkie skullin one for the country! what a fuckin legend! a great prime minister at his finest!

[manlyfanatic]

true legend! A true person i hope nobody is fooled by this gillard and her molving forward bullshit. she is a sly little mole who is actually worse than rudd if possible. I hope this latest term of labor makes people realise labor and the greens ruin this country, liberal always has to save us. Gillard will go down as the worst pm of all time with rudd a close 2nd

[BurntPiston]

A true blue Oz legend.

[YouGotGunYouGotGun]

Onya Bob maaaaate, you'll always be a legend

[KuostA]

although badass, that seems incredibly risky given his position and stature, what if it was spiked? specially by some random goons at a football game.

[UncoRocker]

@KuostA You spelt cricket wrong.

[GalacticalTrauma]

@KuostA Clearly Hawkey didn't give a shit. He has that much trust in us that he doesn't need to give a shit. That's how awesome he is.

Also, it was Cricket, not Football.

[GuruMarv]

@KuostA Do you go around spiking beers with roofies in the hopes that a helpless, former prime minister might walk by you and drink it?

[Saighu]

Legend....

[DeathByTarantula]

Australia: Sure I'll have a beer! You guys look like top blokes.

America: You're offering me, the supreme leader of America a drink? Die terrorist! *bam bam bam*

[roflmao2132]

Lol red neck at 0:01 :DD

[dirkjacobsz]

What an old fart

[nvidia20082008]

Gawd Bless Australiah

[cjdacka]

This is the type of guy we need running the country, not the ranga that was born in wales

[BigaWorm]

How do I find out more about the free iPads???

[EnigmaXtreme]

America voted for Dubya because they wanted a president they could have a beer with, looks like Oz beat you to it.

[laughingwave]

no hesitation



[nvidia20082008]

@laughingwave That's the amazing thing about Australia. When you can have an ex-Prime Minister/ President simply drink a beer offered by a random stranger without any qualms. And skulling it as well... Ha Ha

[08posdom]

Please bob, run for prime minister again (:

[obehere]

That's why I love been an Australian.

[johnno233]

@obehere coz u ddont gotta speak english good?

[steveSPAZ12]

Gosh fucking beast

[wertretwerdfghsdfh]

Haha that would be AWESOME!

[mwachard]

Fukin' legend

[charmpeaso]

Fukin legend

[AussieGolfFreak]

On ya Bob Hawke! I'll never forget him saying " Any boss who sacks an employee for not going to work today is a bum! " after we won the Americas cup in the early eighties. Still a champion Bob!

[GStarDragon]

[TheTanSeeker]

True Aussie!

[MatthewNoPants1atoll]

A tear wells up in my eye...

[eldo4x4]

[Kruiza1]

@eldo4x4 gay

[jayspost]

What a beauty ! good on you Bob Hawke

[TpcElSammo]

[PeekerChu]

[cohelli]

Bob was actually Aussies fastest beer drinker in his 20's or so. True story :)

[h8eRsMaK3m3fAmOuS]

@cohelli - He actually held the world record for skulling a yard glass. OH YEARH! :D

[Gingerslayr]

Idiot

[yamumisapoof]

this is absolutely brilliant where else but australia?

[VITTOLOK1]

che bevuta!!!!!!!!

[coriolis82]

Bob for pm!

[PrimetimeD]

Nice!

[mikee758]

Bob doesn't have a drink problem, anyone would hand him a schooner to see a performance like that. Great stuff. Mikee

[nicjay84]

Legend! Go hawky

[MrLegend555]

LEGEND!!!!

[TheDarwiniser]

i have a feeling he's done that before...... ;)

[mikee758]

Im not a big fan of Bob but you have to say where are the people of personality now in Australian politics? at least he is that. Mikee

[PvtJonCooke83]

Bob ur a bloody legend

[machvayne]

Now THAT's a true Aussie prime minister!

[IdunCareLesSn00b]

@machvayne Yeah a true prime minister who fucked our country but because he can sink some piss that makes it ok lol

[YoungHayesNation]

Champion!

[TWASME1]

What a trooper , anyone who doesn't like old bob is a mug!

[BeatLab10]

It's sad but, because he has a drinking problem

[RedNut2007]

@BeatLab10 Had a drinking problem, he only sculls a beer occasionally now

[adamalada1]

i wish the uk had pms like this one - what a legend!

[michaelrowedtheboat]

Bobby......

[thegreig]

bloody legend



[CableMayo]

haha love the dudes voice who says one for the country robeeeeeeeeeeeert

[internationalpoma]

I knew that the government taxed the crap out of us but a 100% beer tax is just not on!

@goaldenera - agreed, Hawke and Berlusconi may be under the same circus tent but Hawke is the ringmaster while Silvio B is the monkey on the little bike.

[Kirkzzy]

@internationalpoma I think the difference was the lack of bunga bunga parties.

[hogey74]

That cop with a cheesy grin watching him from behind... It makes me want to sing the national anthem.

[omeraskin79]

What a fuckin legend...I wish he was running the county...he would be better than the ranga we got now..

[vendma]

He is my hero

[thommytaranto]

What a champ!

[mikeymike1792]

Try that in Britain.

'David! Beer for the country?'

'Err..Blimey..err..well..at this time of austerity.' I like Cameron but the only thing I can imagine hims drinking is Port.

[SuperPoopoopants]

if he was still in power it would be free beers for everyone

[Drinapropriatetouch]

Beat that Obama!

[hybridtechowns]

@Drinapropriatetouch obama drinks wine.

[thelunn]

hahaha fuck yes!

[chad3232132]

LOL... that's awesome. The politicians here in the U.S. are too uptight to do that.

[bushonomics]

Haha that's great!!! I hope to be so cool when I'm 82 =p

[zackred1]

Labor Man!

[varrowsmith1]

Aussie through and through!!!!

[coachdeakes]

way to go Glenn! Not your average day for the Berry Cricket Club

[sydneygayboi]

Its amazing Bob is in his 80's and still a legend

[keithd05]

HAWKEY YOU RIPPA

[sydneygayboi]

LONG LIVE BOB HAWKE

[frodijr]

This is yet more proof that Australians are descended from the Irish!

[tjalla]

He goes by Robert on official business

[shekhargupta]

Hope i am that cool at his age !

[goaldenera]

Yes, but Berlusconi would have to pay for both.

[4forty6six]

Berlusconi would skull a beer and be shagging a 19yo super model from Romania at the same time!

[MalllowD]

I can just picture Gillard trying to counter that with a virgin martini the hag!

[wompwomble]

@MalllowD And Abbott trying to counter that with a light beer shandy, the tosser.

[toonozandy]

Let's see that muppet president from IRAN down one as well !!!!

Hawkey you bloody legend !!!!!

[nickread91]

how can 71 people dislike this video?

[JayLFRodger]

@nickread91 Staunch Liberalists

[jkslol]

should've crushed up a pinga in it

[2533represent]

Fucking boss

[hytekfpv]

This is the prime minister Australia needs back! Not that ranga and that do good faggot thats there now!!!

[rhyboy1]

Australia...

We are amazing in every way.

[YouInTheJungleBaby]

meanwhile, in Australia...

[Rebumai]

Bob Hawke world record holder for downing a yard glass the fastest

[infokill]

@Rebumai "former" record holder. His time was 11 seconds (as acknowledged in Wikipedia) but the record is now 5 seconds. Still... bloody legend!!

[troamaru]

FUCKING LEGEND!



[Mightydees72]

Can you imagine K-Rudd doing that? Even if he tried to skull the beer he'd choke on it after a moutful and the ambos would have to be called to revive the little bugger....clear....zappp....cl­ear.....zappp....we've lost him!

[ultimateiversonfan10]

@Mightydees72 Good riddance then haha

[lukechuckedaspas]

@Mightydees72 Are you unaware that Kevin Rudd went to a strip club in Manhattan and got absolutley shitfaced. He then said that he was to intoxicated to remember anything. A few weeks later, he became the Prime Minister of Australia after a landslide win in the 07 election. So yeah I can imagine Kevin doing this.

[inertiaMS]

what's even better is he probably never would have even been prime minister if not for his beer sculling abilities, that is actually what elected him, that's how awesome australians are.

[RichCrowe67]

You BLOODY RIPPA!!

[axemanguitars]

Hawke for PM! Get him back!

[TheLollings]

Fuck yea, thats what being aussie is all about

[oldbean86]

They don't make Prime Ministers like that any more :(

[HarrisonPlaysCoD]

Fus Ro Dah!

[djvysy]

...COUNTRY ROBERT (drum drum drum drum...)

[davo2205]

You sir are a legend for getting him to do this

[moshugari]

why do people idolize him? he is just a piss head and he was a shit prime minister

[stinkbra]

@moshugari troll elsewhere love

[moshugari]

@stinkbra im not trolling ? its the truth! he is just a lousy drunk mate. this is the downfall of australian society.

[94Harrymitchell]

@moshugari I agree. I don't care if he was the most 'Australian' prime minister we ever had, i would rather have a foreigner run our country well than an Aussie bloke run it poorly.
