'Osama bin Laden' makes his pitch for a place in paradise
Quote: |
The opportunity to earn �66,500 for spending six months lounging on the beach and blogging about the staggering beauty of the tropical island paradise you're looking after was always going to attract the odd eccentric applicant.
But the people at Queensland's department of tourism were still a little taken aback when the world's most wanted man sent in a video explaining why he was the perfect candidate to act as caretaker of Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef.
In the 30-second clip, which is available on YouTube, a prankster with a questionable sense of humour has overdubbed footage of Osama Bin Laden and used subtitles to make his case for the job.
"I enjoy the outdoors and sandy areas," the subtitles read. "I've got experience with videos, delegating tasks and experience with large scale event co-ordination."
