But what does Such is Life really mean?

According to Greta Baugartel, "Such is Life" means that Ned Kelly had tried his hardest to live for and by his beliefs.

Baugartel dubbed Ned Kelly as a hero because he always had a belief that the social inequalities of his days should be righted. He became caught up in a series of events over which he had little control. Towards the end he was no longer just fighting for his beliefs, he was fighting for his life, and the lives of his friends. Up until his final moments he still firmly believed he had fought for a just cause.

Ned Kelly died aged 25 on November 11th 1880.
