American Reacts Exposing What Irish People Are REALLY Like | Dara Ó Briain

[@marionfinnegan2423]

Back in the 70’s, we couldn’t land at Shannon because there was cows on the runway. This is true. I was coming from Canada and I had never heard of such thing.

[@danganbeg7225]

It never happened.

[@marionfinnegan8576]

It certainly did. I thought at that time that it could only happen in Ireland. I am from Ireland.

[@mossyslopes]

I think its politically incorrect to call them cows now 😂.

[@Someone-dv8uj]

You probably never heard of it because it never happened!🤥

[@SmcdMcd-d2k]

Thats 50 years ago.. FIFTY.. it’s not the same now

[@mollydooker9636]

I bet a kidney it was a hare not a rabbit at Dublin airport. Its full of the feckers, no idea why.

[@stephenmurphy2667]

They get free flights.

[@paulbromley6687]

Connor you are looking a lot happier recently something must be going well for you…keep it up mate.

[@paulbromley6687]

If you can find Dara OBriains stand up where he compares the catholic and Protestant congregation saying the Lord’s Prayer at a mixed marriage ceremony it is brilliant.

[@Dreyno]

As a product of a Irish mixed marriage, I resent having my people made mockery of 😬

[@Dreyno]

On the topic though, I went to an Anglican school but half the pupils were Catholic. Every day after assembly the headmaster would lead the school in the Lord’s Prayer. All the Catholics would say it really loudly and then stop suddenly where the Catholic version ended. Some of the Protestants would join in for extra comedic effect. We never tired of the hilarity of seeing the headmaster’s angry face in six years. 😂

@@Dreyno That sounds horrible, I hope it was a long time ago..

[@Dreyno]

@@HenrikJansson78 Why would it be “horrible”?

[@HenrikJansson78]

@@Dreyno Well. I'm not a big fan of religious brainwashing. And I'm an even lesser fan if it's state sponsored.

The actor who played Mr Bronson in BBC1's school drama Grange Hill not only played a bad guy in Star Wars he also played Hitler in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, along with other roles in big films and TV.

[@johnkilcullen]

Fun fact: Dara O'Briain has a degree in astrophysics.

[@QTmodz-Projects]

Biggest myth

[@ffotograffydd]

He actually studied mathematics and theoretical physics at University College Dublin. He has co-presented astronomy programmes with Professor Brian Cox on television though.

[@Joseph13163]

its not actually rabbits it was probably an irish Hare and actuallly they are loads at the airport its a real hotspot for them for some reason.Obviously there is plenty of grass and livestock is not allowed.

[@danganbeg7225]

Yes, definitely a hare.

[@framethis]

THEY ARE PRACTICING HOW TO OUTRUN THE PLANES ..

[@LFire12]

Wasn't Princess Leia he was talking about, it was Mon Mothma, played at the time by Caroline Blakiston who is actually a brilliant British Actress, who had a bit of a ham moment it has to be admitted. Dara however is brilliant all the time.

[@swanchamp5136]

I love Dara's take on video games, it's one of his most active bits in stand up

[@rosebudliness]

Missed opportunity to call it O Hare airport 😂 pity it was already taken 😂

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

would love more Dara O'Briain. He's brilliant :)

[@franceslynch8815]

I'm laughing more at your little laughs coming through his flow of jokes. Best part was you putting your hand when he asked who's Irish.😂😂

[@AnGhaeilge]

Ó Briain is an Irish language surname. That's why it's pronounced Oh-Breen. O'Brien is just the anglicized version of the surname. If you want a good Irish comedian skit, look up How Ireland Dealt With Lunatics by Tommy Tiernan.

[@vvvlife6414]

Lol ..They're not rabbits, they're Hares .. and they live there.

[@michaeldowson6988]

Ease up on him; he's hareless.

Huge fan of Dara's stand-up. You can basically watch any bit from him and be guaranteed a laugh - he's just brilliant 😄

[@Safi-Dee]

To be fair, I've seen rabbits on the Dublin runway multiple times in my life. The most recent was 2 months ago getting a flight to france.

[@Cheddarhead7]

Speaking of Ireland, it would be great if you could watch some episodes of Father Ted for the channel

@@dessy-cs9ws Careful now.

[@brigidsingleton1596]

If its Dara, its good. (And, his last name is not O'Brien, its O'Briain - "O'_Bree_an_")

[@padawan9127]

His name is O 'Brien in English. O 'Briain is the Irish version. I should know, its my name too

[@TheIrishRanger7]

That's not the point really, he calls himself Dara Ò Briain. Nobody would know who you were talking about if you said you went to see Dara O'Brien

[@padawan9127]

@TheIrishRanger7 this still doesn't change a single thing I said in my comment though 😉

[@TheIrishRanger7]

@@padawan9127 Yeah, your comment is as irrelevant now as it ever was.

[@padawan9127]

@TheIrishRanger7 no, just factual and educational. Bye now, I'm off to continue being happy. You can stay being sour. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I won't be back either. Enjoy bitterness 😆😆

I’m Irish, your more them welcome to say you are too

But he isnt hes American his parents are American his grand parents are American. If his dad was irish I could understand it

[@yodaami]

My mom and dad were both Irish, I’m not Irish.

[@aflyn6279]

Oh are you the guy who decides on who can call themselves Irish? I know a few guys who might like a word with you.

[@wrorchestra1]

Dara O'Briain pronounced O'Breean. Not Leia but Mon Mothma the leader of the Rebel Alliance.

[@micade2518]

Yes, peoples' emotional reactions can be weird sometimes: I was in a cinema theatre watching Francis Ford Coppola's brilliant "Apocalypse Now". There is that scene when a whole bunch of Vietnamese fishermen thought to be Vietcongs get gunned down at point blank by the American soldiers. A young Vietnamese girl goes towards a barrel and ... gets shot too. The audience is "dead" (if I may say so) silent. The soldier opens the barrel and ... pulls a puppy out of it. The puppy goes "yip" ... and the entire audience goes "ooooooooooooooooooooh" ... Never take it for granted that people will feel more for you than for a dog!!! :o(

[@orlabuckley9641]

I know how sad that scene is but I have to say Dara O'Briain nails the Irish sense of humour perfectly in that clip, yes I'm Irish as well

[@thegaelicgladiator665]

Just so you know his name is pronounced "bree-an" don't ask how it's pronounced like that... Because my name is pronounced exactly the same but is spelt Breian... Both are Irish versions of Brian

[@annew441]

There's lots of rabbits around Dublin airport.

[@mmclo]

Irish Hares actually, loads at the Airport, they were actually there first, long term car park full of them

Nope. If you go to Ireland with a heavy American accent and claim to be Irish they'll either take the piss out of you or use the opportunity to absolutely fleece you by selling you absolutely 100% genuine relics of St. Patrick.
