25 Pics That Prove Australia Is Truly The Land Of “Nope!”

Australia is a unique place. People even call it the land of “nope,” but there’s nowhere else on earth like it. They’ve got poisonous critters I’ve never heard of, snakes on public transportation, and wildfires. Sure, climate change affects every country but knowing my luck, I’d step on a venomous spider while trying to save my family from a fire.

I have a ton of respect for the folks of Australia for living in the land of “nope” and for sharing these crazy pics.
