I was doing this in the mid eighties... think a teacher showed me it but can't remember... didn't have tv.

I'm pretty sure I saw it featured in an article in Highlights for Children during the 80s.

Do Australians commonly say "elephant" to count seconds as the presenters do? In the U.S. it's usually "one-thousand" or "Mississippi". (I guess I can imagine that Australians wouldn't say "Mississippi"!)

I've never heard of "elephant", no. (Sydney here)
