This ad was also special as it came out as Australia was opening up after lockdowns from Covid.
It was around a long time before COVID. That was a rerun.

I worked on the station where the salt lake dancers are performing when they did it . An amazing thing to witness
Those huge rocks are in Tasmania the most Southern State of Australia, it has the cleanest air in the world there.
I left Australia when I was under 10 and this still gives me the feels.
