Foiled Gold Coast robbery leads to 'most Aussie interview ever'

‘I busted me plugger after a singlets and stubbies party,' says Antipodean hero

An interview with two amateur Australian crime fighters has been hailed"the most Aussie interview ever".

James Ross-Munro and Kane Wiblen had news presenters from Australia’s Channel 9 hooting with laughter as they described the night they foiled a robbery at a chicken shop.

My Wiblen had filmed their initial efforts to thwart the crime, in video shown before the Gold Coast pair's interview.

Mr Ross-Munro told presenters they had been at a “stubbies and singlets” party at a local bar - stubbies being a 375ml bottle of beer, popular in Australia, while a singlet is an Australian term for a sleeveless vest. He said the pair had gone to buy food when they noticed something at the petrol station - or "servo” - was amiss.

“I thought something was a bit sus [suspect] so went to go check it out,” said Mr Ross-Munro in the interview. It then became apparent a robbery was in progress nearby.

Nothing says an awesome Friday like beers, mates, laughs, oh and this burger shop robbery gone to shit. Interesting night to say the least!

“There was no plan, just go with it,” he told Channel 9.

Mr Ross-Munro prompted shrieks of laughter as he informed presenters he did all this with a "busted plugger", or broken sandal. However, he reports he has had a few donations to replace his old pair.

Asked if he went to the gym by a presenter, he replied: “Mate I don’t go to the gym, I aint been to the gym in years. Only gym I go to is Jim Beam.”
