Hi All,
To clarify the situation, I am not dead. Also, the beer kit was in a plastic kit as BribieG suggested (good knowledge on the prob at hand). Anyway, I did use a coopers generic yeast (found in any cooper can) and had been fermenting the batch at approx. 20C. I did bottle 14 of the finest in 750 mL plastic bottles and did manage to live after taking a pre-carbonated swig. Nothing impressive, lacks a bold taste <_< , but I am still hopeful for a reasonable outcome.
You are probably asking what happened to the other half. Well it has been submitted into a mini-keg bottling experiment. Now you're probably asking "what happens if the beer is really good and you're experiment goes bad?"
. Well like I said, my dad is a horder and there is another kit. Which makes me greatful for the suggestions about getting in contact with coopers.

It's like a wort can, brewing sugar and 21 litres of water were added to a drum and sold as that

Standing up for the Aussie Bottler
Basically a wort can is hopped wort that's been concentrated by having all the water driven off. Water is then added back in along with some sugar. A fresh wort kit is the wort before the water driving off part (as per general grain based beer making) sold as a kit - so malt sugar+water+hops = you add yeast.
