    The Force is strong with this one.

    A 30-year-old Irish man, Alex Dean, became an internet sensation when he wore a stormtrooper mask, a Donegal GAA jersey and belted out the hit ‘The Hills of Donegal’.  His outfit was inspired by the filming of Star Wars in Donegal.

    The man from Letterkenny is a self-proclaimed “massive fan” of Star Wars and has created a parody of Goats Don’t Shave’s ‘Hills of Donegal’ – which he laced with references to characters of the movies.

    Alex made the amazing video with his brother at The Grianan of Aileach ringfort overlooking Lough Swilly and Inishowen. The video was uploaded to the Alex Dean Music Facebook page and has received over 200,000 views since.
