Kaum zu glauben, dass so eine einfache Sache so viele Jahre im Gedächtnis der Gesellschaft Bestand hatte. Aber vielleicht erinnert es mich auch einfach an eine weniger kontroverse und bessere Zeit … Abgesehen von der ganzen Rezessionssache … war das Scheiße

I heard that guy was the founder of Dublin city. He was the guy who scared away all the dragons that were here before then. Only to die in that horrible slipping accident. RIP
Proud to share my birthday with this iconic moment in Irish history and will never forget being a kid watching it on the news and cracking up completely 😌😌
It’s time An Post immortalized him as a stamp.
It was so funny that they just didn’t mention that part of the clip, like the news became You’ve Been Framed for a couple of seconds!
The very epitome of “go tobann…”
I remember wincing when I saw that. The poor lad must have gotten some clatter. Something similar happened to me years ago, but I hit the back of my head and got a concussion for my troubles.
Did he get found in the end at all?
Give this man the statue he deserves!
Whoa, feels like so much longer ago tbh!
And we never found who he was.
He’s a hero up there with Collins.
Didn’t someone put a plaque there to commemorate it.
16 years ago today
I wonder is the person even aware of this clip?
for the love of fudge can someone please drop a link to a copy of this video 😆
EDIT: found it lmao https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3vVDUuC0yw
EDIT 2: it was actually 16 years ago
I always find it weird that nobody ever managed to find out who this was.
Never forget, there was a fever snakey *$&# of a camera man who waited there for the shot.
Can share the image without the video : https://youtu.be/oT9z87GNL_g
Don’t forget this followup!

That winter was mighty craic. This one went viral in Limerick

Where exactly is this spot? Near the courts?
RIP
Its 16 no? This was in 2010
16 years and this is the first time I noticed the
cameraman saying “oh shit” after he falls
How did the camera man know to record? At best he was waiting for an accident , at worst he planned it
I was watching the news live when this happened and I remember calling my husband to come and see it. We must have rewatched it 20 times, he was so confident walking jauntily along as if he’d never seen ice before
Has anyone found this guy? Would love to hear from him
Should be properly commemorated with a public holiday. Not all heroes wear capes
Apologies as pointed out by some it’s actually 16 years not 15
This still makes me laugh. Every time
