Alice Springs, last stop. |
00:02:13.960 - 00:02:16.003 |
'Dear Sir, I am planning to walk
across the Australian desert, |
00:02:27.680 - 00:02:31.919 |
from Alice Springs to the Indian
Ocean... a distance of 2,000 miles.' |
00:02:31.920 - 00:02:35.879 |
'The trip will take
six-to-seven months.' |
00:02:40.760 - 00:02:43.361 |
Dickheads. |
00:02:44.280 - 00:02:46.130 |
'I arrived in Alice
Springs over a year ago. |
00:02:50.600 - 00:02:53.599 |
There are herds of feral camels roaming
freely throughout Central Australia |
00:02:53.600 - 00:02:57.599 |
and my idea was to capture a few
and train them to carry my gear.' |
00:02:57.600 - 00:03:01.204 |
Diggity, stay. |
00:03:10.160 - 00:03:12.124 |
'The trip wasn't conceived
as an adventure, |
00:03:15.040 - 00:03:17.799 |
in the sense of something
to be proved or conquered. |
00:03:17.800 - 00:03:20.519 |
And when people ask me why I'm doing
it, my usual answer is "why not?".' |
00:03:20.520 - 00:03:24.239 |
I was wondering if
you had any work. |
00:03:24.240 - 00:03:26.159 |
- What kind of work?
- Behind the bar, anything. |
00:03:26.160 - 00:03:29.639 |
Ask the missus. She's out the back. |
00:03:29.640 - 00:03:32.079 |
Got a place to stay? |
00:03:32.080 - 00:03:33.919 |
I was planning on
camping somewhere. |
00:03:33.920 - 00:03:36.599 |
Got a tent? |
00:03:36.600 - 00:03:38.399 |
No. |
00:03:38.400 - 00:03:39.965 |
One meal per shift is provided, |
00:03:43.240 - 00:03:45.759 |
rent's deducted from first week's
pay, the loo's down the hall. |
00:03:45.760 - 00:03:49.399 |
