’Best job in the world’ competition won by a Brit.


Ben Southall, a British man, beat 34,000 other applicants. It has been dubbed “the best job in the world”—to stroll the white sands of a tropical island in Queensland, Australia, file weekly reports online to a global audience and earn a cool $100,000.
Ben worked as a fundraiser before.

“I love discovering new places,” Southall said in his minute-long application video for the position.
"Last year, I drove all around Africa; I crossed deserts, climbed mountains, run marathons, bungee jump, mountain-bike, scuba-dive and snorkel everywhere because I'm practically a fish myself."
And he rode an ostrich.
