Even though almost no romantic story in the history of ever begins with “so I stormed the stage and attacked him,” that doesn’t mean Justin Bieber‘s legions of fans aren’t willing to give it a whirl — and if you think it’s just American girls who are that brazen, think again.

The 2012 Olympics is the time where the hottest guys in the world all get together, take their shirts off and perform feats of strength… We mean, they compete in athletic events.

We don’t know what it is exactly, but Australia has been having its fair share of great news bloopers recently. This video of a streaker running behind a 9News weatherman as he reports on the bitter cold temperatures in the mountain town of Katoomba (about 60 miles west of Sydney) is no exception. Be sure to pay close attention though: It’s a quick streak and if you blink, you might miss it. In fact, given how cold it is, you might still miss “it” if he were standing there, stark naked, right in front of you. There’s also a part of us that wonders if most Australians would even bat an eye at this sort of thing because if you’ve ever seen one of those “World’s Funniest Commercial” specials, all the naked ones are from Australia.

Cameras caught the stunning - and admittedly scary-looking - event, which occurred just north of Sydney. (A local news station claimed the spouts reached upwards of 600 meters, or nearly 2,000 feet.)

Check out video footage of the waterspouts after the jump.

One of the first things a youngster learns about dinosaurs is that they have long been extinct. On a certain level, these Australian school children have internalized that lesson. However, when the life-like prehistoric beast starts to roar in this video (after the jump), some of them no longer seem so sure.

In defense of the scaredy cats, that's a pretty impressive movie-quality dinosaur suit they are being confronted with.

Read on to hear the high-pitched squeals of childhood.

We all know that swiss cheese is holy, but it's the mozzarella that topped a pizza in Australia's Posh Pizza that has everyone whispering, "Holy Cheesus!"

Pizza maker Maree Phelan said she topped the pizza with cheese as usual, threw it in the oven and discovered the face of Jesus looking back at her when she took it out.
