5. Couple's 42 Year Test Record |
Bernie and Norma Schneider of Rockhampton, Queensland

scientists set up a testing station on their 20-acre
property that straddles the Tropic of Capricorn.
Forty two years later the site is one of BlueScope
Steel's longest established testing stations in
Australia – and Bernie is set to celebrate
his eightieth birthday. Find out more about BlueScope
