An American lands in Melbourne, is crossing the street at the airport, looks left, and gets hit by a car coming at him from the right.

He wakes up in the hospital and begins to rant, "you stinking Australians! Driving on the wrong side of the street! Did I come to this country to die?"

Nurse: no, you came here yesterday.

I like this version better, because the guy's near death is associated with being in the country. In the other versions, there's no connection between the person coming to Australia and dying.
