00:00Crocodile Dundee is such an iconic Aussie film.
00:02What's one thing you reckon Aussies do better than anyone else?
00:06Just exist.
00:07They don't take themselves too seriously.
00:09And that's the big thing that's been taken into note now in Hollywood.
00:13Australians aren't up themselves.
00:1540 years on, how do you think Mick Dundee would handle social media?
00:19TikTok, Facebook?
00:20He's avoiding that.
00:21Yeah.
00:22He lives in the 50s, I think.
00:25And he liked it that way.
00:26Come on.
00:27Come and say g'day.
00:28Hey, I'll slip an extra shrimp on the barbie for you.
00:31Come and say g'day.
00:33Australians complained and said,
00:35why aren't you selling a prawn on the barbie?
00:37We call it a prawn.
00:38And they said to me,
00:40well, we're not selling it to you, Hoag.
00:41We're selling Australia to the rest of the world and it's a shrimp.
00:45Oh, OK.
00:45So I had a big tiger prawn and calling it a shrimp,
00:48which is nice and ironic too.
00:49But that commercial is in the Smithsonian Institute in America,
00:53which is the biggest museum in the world.
00:56And it's in there.
