English expat mocks Aussies for their hilarious overreaction to mild winters: ‘You lot are funny man’

  • A British man has had a dig at the way Aussies struggle to deal with the cold   
  • Daniel Olaniran, AKA @olantekkers, regularly mocks Aussies in hilarious videos 
  • He’s originally from the UK but has now lived in Australia for two and a half years

An English expat has hilariously mocked Aussies for their inability to handle cold weather, joking about how heavily they dress at the first sign of winter.

Social media influencer Daniel Olaniran, known as @olantekkers, is originally from the UK but has lived in Australia for two and a half years.

The former professional soccer player has quite the following on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, and is always happy to give his opinion on Aussie culture and our way of life.

In his latest TikTok video, Mr Olaniran can be seen having a dig at the way the Aussies react to winter, having been used to the extreme freezing temperatures over in the UK. 

‘Australians in the winter man, you lot are funny man,’ Mr Olaniran said. 

‘You guys can’t wait to bring out the North Face jackets…I’m seeing big puffy North Face jackets looking Arsène Wenger (former Arsenal F.C. manger), you know what I mean.’

Mr Olaniran said he often saw Aussies in ‘North Face drip from head to toe, including the hat and gloves, like what is this man’. 

‘It’s not even that cold man, all you need is a light jumper and you’re ready to roll bruv.’ 

Mr Olaniran told the Daily Mail Australia that ‘in Sydney I really don’t think it gets too cold…it gets chilly but not on the level of a winter in London.’ 

‘I think most Aussies struggle because they’re obviously so used to the sun.’

Meanwhile, winter has officially started, as an icy blast sweeps across larges swathes of Australia, bringing chilly temperatures, snow, and bitter winds. 

Parts of Australia woke up to the coldest temperatures of the year on Wednesday as the nation’s southeast corner is battered by freezing conditions.

Snow fell overnight near Melbourne and Sydney as residents in both capital cities brace to shiver through high-speed winds on Wednesday as a cold front and low pressure system barrels east from South Australia.
