Here are some of the most fearless Queenslanders committed to leading the good life

Their recent campaign highlights how the end of the world would lead to the end of beer, so people must live their life like the cold brew depends on it.

LADbible caught up with two spectacular Aussies who make every day count because, after all, life’s better when you ‘Give a XXXX'.

Tim, who grew up in Tallebudgera Valley, developed a deep appreciation for nature while hiking in the beautiful Hinterland Gold Coast bush during his youth.

But Tim was terrified of snakes when he was younger, which made him confront his fear head-on and understand more about them.

With almost two decades of experience, the Queenslander native founded his very own business, Hudson Snake Catching, in Gilston, making him the number-one go-to snake catcher on the Gold Coast.

Tim’s main job consists of safely catching these reptiles and relocating them to a safe habitat, so they don’t pose a threat to the public - thank god.

While Tim truly doesn’t work the typical nine-to-five, one of his more memorable encounters was when he had to climb under a verandah to catch two mating eastern brown snakes simultaneously with his bare hands.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Not to mention, the eastern brown snake is the second most toxic animal on the planet.

“We all have to do our part to give a XXXX about Queensland. For me, it’s being able to relocate our precious wildlife to safety and get them away from conflict with people,” he said.

Whereas in the Somerset region in rural Queensland is Natisha or Tish - known to her friends - a world champion speed skydiver who broke the record at a top speed of 491.99 km/hr.

“It’s just blistering speed and I’m very proud to accomplish that,” she says.

Nothing says live life to the fullest than hurling yourself out of a plane.

Tisha grew up in Mount Perry near Bundaberg, where she became obsessed with sky-driving after receiving a $25 voucher for a tandem skydive at a career’s expo.

She’s been addicted to the extreme sport ever since and even has a new goal to hit the 500 km/hr mark.

Tisha now works for Skydive Ramblers in Toogoolawah, Queensland’s largest and longest-established skydiving operation.

There, she’s fostered a community where the instructors work closely with aspiring sky drivers that remind Tisha of her younger self.

She says: “I loved helping people open their minds, so that they can also experience the joy that I’ve felt.”

Tisha adds: “I try to get people to reconnect to whatever they're passionate about, because everyone has different passions and I feel like if you don’t have a fire in your belly, then it can be very boring.”
