An early 1998 episode of Outback Adventures with high-adrenalin Aussie bushman and outback daredevil Troy Dann.
During his TV celebrity peak, Dann was screened into 100 million homes worldwide and was nominated for 2 Logies. Troy Dann went viral even before there was RU-vid!
Here Troy teams up with didgeridoo maestro David Blanasi to learn how to make and play a didgeridoo in the NT... the process begins with Blanasi selecting a termite-hollowed bloodwood in the bush near his community of Beswick in southern Arnhem Land. The log is stripped of bark, the instrument shaped and excess sapwood removed, then a bit of light sanding before the artwork goes on... Dann helps with grinding the ochres and Blanasi paints with his characteristic brush strokes...
Dann to Blanasi: "You show me how to play it properly".
Blanasi to Dann: "I don't know, not enough breakfast!"
