00:00
You know what, this is the thing that amazes me.
00:05
The actual shithouse has exploded.
00:07
Pretty much the worst day of your life really, looking at a tsunami of fire coming straight
00:34
at you.
00:35
Just horrendous conditions.
00:37
And there was no one saving the livestock.
00:40
You couldn't see, it was just as dark as the inside of a dog.
00:44
Like the bottom of flames and it's just burning across the trees and you cannot breathe.
00:49
CFS have got rules and regulations and they don't really apply because you're not going
00:53
to go to sleep when your mates house is under fire.
00:59
Yeah of course I can remember what it looked like.
01:07
I lost, me shed, probably one and a half million dollars worth of machines, my house.
01:16
This is a Makita drill.
01:22
It's hard, there was nearly a dream here.
01:28
It's mostly been wiped out now.
01:32
Nothing left mate.
01:34
Not a cracker.
01:39
Do you start up again or not?
01:42
Yeah, there's definitely people you worry about.
01:46
Those people are hurting.
01:47
They're really hurting.
01:49
To see people come in so torn and so proud is really quite heart wrenching.
01:55
It's been the hardest thing to see.
02:00
The marks on the road where two people died.
02:03
Hey look mate, I am fucked.
02:17
Once a park catches fire it's very hard to stop.
02:20
Look we did the best we could on the day.
02:22
Both of them had the opportunity out of days when the grain were there to put it out.
02:26
We need to get to the truth of what really happened.
02:29
I hope lessons are learned out of this.
02:32
It's only 13 years ago that all the national parks burned and here we are again.
02:36
You go along and make too many mistakes forward all the way, there's not going to be anything
02:40
to pick up later on.
02:42
You cannot stop fires with the climate that we have.
02:48
That would be the scariest thing looking forward.
02:50
It would be its ability to create divides within the community and affect friendships.
02:55
It is so wrong.
02:58
I just don't understand.
03:01
The whole community of Kangaroo Island has been shaken to the core from this and the
03:07
ripple effect from this will go for years.
03:13
What do I do now?
