Exposing What Irish People Are REALLY Like | Dara Ó Briain

[@ScreamingManiac]

As an irish person, can confirm i can't be fully sincere. I'll try to be serious but then ill see an opportunity for a joke. Trying to be serious for to long will make my skin crawl because then i'll have to face the cold dark reality... Which coincidentally also describes Irish weather.

Dublin airport is full of hares, in the last 25 years there's been over 300 hares struck by planes. I thought this was a very well known fact. I guess that means it's common enough for it to be acceptable for tourists to tell it as an 'irish' story.

When I go down to Dublin from County Down in the North, I always play up the tourist crap/sentimentality for a laugh at any sightseeing trap. I was overdoing it a bit once, and the Dublin local in charge gave me a "feck off mate" and we both bust out laughing, it was done and said in a friendly way, although the tourists may not have initially realized it.

Dublin Airport grounds are actually protected because there is a very large colony of Irish Hares that breed there. It was far more likely a hare you saw not a rabbit I've actually seen two or three hares sit at the edge of the runway and watch the flight land
