Scottish reporter tricked into wearing protection from Australian drop bears.

Drop bears

Description: If you are visiting Australia, beware of the Drop Bear! They resemble koalas, but they have sharp teeth and claws and will drop down on humans from tree branches. The only way to avoid a bear attack is to wear forks on your head, put toothpaste behind your ear, or urinate yourself. Australians need not worry; for the creature doesn’t attack anyone with an Australian accent. Is this a real threat? Of course not! But it’s a great way to get gullible tourists to piss themselves.

Yep, several times. They tend to really like the Americans
