An interview with two amateur Australian crime fighters has been hailed"the most Aussie interview ever".
James Ross-Munro and Kane Wiblen had news presenters from Australia’s Channel 9 hooting with laughter as they described the night they foiled a robbery at a chicken shop.
My Wiblen had filmed their initial efforts to thwart the crime, in video shown before the Gold Coast pair's interview.
Mr Ross-Munro told presenters they had been at a “stubbies and singlets” party at a local bar - stubbies being a 375ml bottle of beer, popular in Australia, while a singlet is an Australian term for a sleeveless vest. He said the pair had gone to buy food when they noticed something at the petrol station - or "servo” - was amiss.
“I thought something was a bit sus [suspect] so went to go check it out,” said Mr Ross-Munro in the interview. It then became apparent a robbery was in progress nearby.
A shirtless Mr Ross-Munro can be seen removing keys from the ignition of the presumed getaway car.
“There was no plan, just go with it,” he told Channel 9.
Mr Ross-Munro prompted shrieks of laughter as he informed presenters he did all this with a "busted plugger", or broken sandal. However, he reports he has had a few donations to replace his old pair.
Asked if he went to the gym by a presenter, he replied: “Mate I don’t go to the gym, I aint been to the gym in years. Only gym I go to is Jim Beam.”
