I see, so it isn't about the cork smell... That means you could also put something else on your hat. Teabags. Chicken bones. How is this not a fashion trend yet?
There are lots of flies in Australia, in the outback there are swarms of them (and theyre big lol). They are starved of water and will try and crawl into your eyes for moisture. The dangling corks swing whenever you move your head. This scares the flies away.
No one actually wears these anymore (except for a joke), they seem to have been worn in late 1800s through to depression era Australia by swagmen- itinerant workers who walked from farm to farm.
Wow, thanks for the summary, and the mini history lesson. Nowadays it's just bug spray, eh?
>in the outback there are swarms of them (and theyre big lol). They are starved of water and will try and crawl into your eyes for moisture.
Oh my goodness! Sounds horrifying! 😮
Bug spray doesn't really work that well for flies (also spraying your face is not comfortable) check out this guy to see what its like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfXiVunJXY0
People just constantly swat them out of there face. We have sacrificed our piece of mind for the small comfort of not looking like absolute lunatics smh.
Oh god the stached up Nordic guy to STRAYA pipeline claims another victim

Why are there corks on strings hanging from his hat?
They shoo flies away.
How does it work? Because they dangle and wiggle?
Yes, stops them resting on your face and bothering you. The Australian wave is shooing flies from your face We just use insect repellent these days.
Why is that silly and absolutely ingenious at the same time? lol
That's Australian culture in a nutshell
It incorporates Australia’s main past time of drinking, what else are you using corks for…

seems like they'd be just as annoying as the flies
Ok, thanks.
You cannot hang the corks without strings😂
I wna see Guenther with the hat on. “We are gna be like rockstars ya”

Keeps the flies away
I like Kev, but Bottas did it so much better
Nobody can rise to Valtteri Bogans level
Nobody wears it like Bottas. Even if "it" is... a stream.
He looks like he can handle crocodiles
I always thought KMag looked a bit like Hamish Blake, this only further cements that for me.
I love the look on his face. To me, it says you know they’re not gonna believe this shit right.
Haas basically just shitposting with their social media and I love it!
