in the tenth photo there is like a human figure that is being burnt by thr fire...all the situation is so sad..my thoughts are to the families that were affected

[missawesomeswan78]

he's not actually being burnt, he's just in the background and the flames are in front.

but thanks for watching anyway, and yes it is very sad.

Thanks for the vid, North Qld is starting to clean up after the floods but more rain may come :(

Better yet, the flood victims are donating money to the Victorians! such compassion is rarely seen!

Best country on Earth

How sad that we have floods in North Queensland and fires in Victoria.

I agree though, Aussies are amazing.

Thank you for the video.  I'm 11 years old and I am gathering books and donations to help rebuild the bookmobile they had in Marysville Victoria. I live in Marysville, Washington US. Our library here is helping me, and we have someone in Australia to help us too. I will be at the strawvberry festival in my home town selling books, so we can buy more in Australia. We Marysvilles need to stick together.

Its so great to see how everyone is pulling together just goes to show how supporting us Aussies are well supporting isn't really the word.... The night of black Saturday fires people were sleeping at the town hall and my whole town was there donating stuff.  R.I.P Bushfire victims :'(

RIP to all those who died, but also RIP to the millions of animals that tragically died :(

[vincentlhh]

why did all these have to happen...bless all those who are still suffering from the aftermath of the bushfires....Advance Australia fair

Fire fighters are my hero's. You don't know what they go through, even at the smaller fires, until you experience it yourself.. Watching them on tv makes it look like nothing compared to what it truely is.

Picture at 4.18 is awesome. He's a captain so to see him like that is just the worst to a firefighter..
