Appreciation post: that 2019 clip of the bloke in Ballarat yelling at his ute is still the best Aussie meme

I keep coming back to the footage shot outside a Bunnings in Ballarat back in 2019, where a guy in a high-vis vest spends a solid 40 seconds telling his busted ute it has 'one job' before it starts. Someone reposted it on TikTok last week and it hit 2.3 million views in four days, which proves nothing has topped it since. Most Aussie viral clips are just some bloke falling off an esky, but this one has a real arc: the anger, the surrender, the slow walk back to the driver's door. I reckon it beats any influencer stunt that gets pushed at us now because there is zero acting in it. Who is your pick for the most Aussie clip of the last five years, and why does it still hold up?
