@Spiffy Bee Hi!

Probably because the array in that Facts - Pastebin.com is broken.

You forget to close the ` `` backtick at the end.

[`The Great Barrier Reef is the largest eco-system in the world.`,
`Australia has over 60 separate wine regions`,
`Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world`,
`The Indian Pacific train has the longest straight section of train track in the world`,
`The Great Ocean Road is the world’s largest war memorial`,
`80% of the animals are unique to Australia`,
`2.5 km of Uluru is underground`,
`Tasmania has the cleanest air in the world`,
`90% of Australians live on the coast`,
`The Australian Alps get more snow than the Swiss Alps.`]
