Join Phil O'Brien on his hilarious adventures in the bush. They're sometimes bizarre, they're often embarrassing and, sadly for Phil, they all really happened...

When Phil O'Brien left home as a free-spirited young teenager, he planned to make a real name for himself in outback Australia. Twenty-five years and over two hundred jobs later, his journey continues and, mate, has he made a name for himself...

There were tough times. ('I was stranded at the side of the road in forty-five degree heat. I wasn't quite at the stage where you drink your own urine, but I can tell you what, I was looking round for a container..')

And there were dangerous times. ('Now stealing eggs from crocs is probably on a par with going over Niagara Falls in a 44-gallon drum. Theoretically it's possible to survive, but if you didn't make it, no one would be surprised. Life would go on and you'd just end up as croc shit, floating down the river.')

In short, no one's done more kilometers or had more bad luck than Phil O'Brien - and no one tells a better, or funnier, yarn. So if you want to see how much trouble one can get into, get into 101 Adventures that got me absolutely nowhere. It will take you to places you've never been before...
