US vacationer reveals the REAL ‘harmful animals’ in Australia – and you will not see them in any zoo exhibit: ‘They assault with out warning’
A US tourist has revealed the most ‘dangerous’ animal in Australia – and it’s not sharks, snakes or spiders.
Comedian Frankie Marcos, who’s currently touring Melbourne and Adelaide, made a tongue-in-cheek video explaining the ‘real lethal creature’ he stumbled upon.
‘In Australia, everybody always talks about the dangerous animals being sharks, spiders and snakes. Sure, but you guys don’t know about the real lethal creature out here. It’s called the bogan,’ he said in his video.
‘Sharks can only get you in the water. A bogan can get you at Coles. You can be in line trying to pay for your stuff and they’re just (screaming), “ya dog”.
‘They attack without warning.’
A bogan is defined as someone who demonstrates uncouth or unsophisticated behaviour, such as being disrespectful, discourteous, selfish or showing poor taste.
‘Bogans can read your address and find you,’ Frankie joked.
‘And they’re on meth so they’re fast.’

He added: ‘Watch out for the bogans if you come here and the drop bears.’
The stand-up comedian was referencing the iconic Australian drop bear prank – a mythical creature said to be a predatory, carnivorous version of the koala that is commonly used to scare tourists.
Frankie captioned his amusing video with: ‘Ever seen a bogan in the wild?’
His video has been viewed more than 400,000 times – with many Aussies divided over his controversial statement.
‘I’m Australian. He is right. End of my story,’ one said.
‘Aww man, they’ll get ya, they attack for literally no reason too. Can confirm, I’m Australian,’ another shared.
‘I agree with everything until meth. Not all crackheads are bogans and not all bogans are crackheads,’ one explained.
‘This is hilarious – and then adding the drop bears quickly at the end had me in stitches,’ another added.
‘I am literally cackling picturing someone encountering (a bogan) for the first time and not knowing the only thing you have to do is not engage,’ one said, laughing.
Meanwhile, many suggested Frankie needed to meet the right type of ‘bogan’.
‘You need to be friends with the non-meth bogans. They will always have your back,’ one Aussie said, laughing.
‘Respectfully you gotta know the difference between real bogans, cashed up bogans, and junkies. Bogans can be some of the most simples yet best mates you’ll ever have,’ another suggested.
‘Aussie here, I think you may be referring to the “junkies” – common mistake though, the bogan crowd are good,’ one pointed out.
‘It’s the crackheads. Do not make eye contact and move away slowly,’ another added.
Meanwhile, others weighed in on the ‘dangerous animals’.
‘As an Australian, we don’t talk about the animals… unless it’s the magpie,’ one said.
‘Bro, I swam with a four-foot bull shark today on the Gold Coast. My heart almost dropped out of my a***h*** when the lifeguard told me,’ another shared.
