In this article, we will list what we believe to be the funniest Irish videos on YouTube from the past ten years.
10. Fake typing on RTE News – what were they thinking!?
What makes this video hilarious is how obvious it is that the man is not hitting any of the keys at all, how did they think they would get away with this fake typing?
9. Airport Santa kid on TV3 – so bad, but so funny
You can’t help but laugh at this video even though you may feel a little guilty about it after.
This video shows a kid at the airport excited at Christmas who runs off while not looking ahead and runs into some oncoming suitcases, falling flat on his face.
Luckily, he was fine afterwards and can hopefully laugh back at it now.
8. Man hurts himself clapping on Winning Streak – how did this even happen?
Have you ever seen a man clap so hard that he ends up hurting himself?
Well, if you look at this video, you will get the chance. How this even happened is still a great and hilarious mystery.
7. Driving test dad – an angry dad
This video, which contains some very NSFW language, shows Feilim McHugh who just passed his driving test tell his father that he failed while filming the reaction.
The dad’s rant went viral and was even one of the top global videos on Reddit.
6. Tipperary man fights with his Sat Nav – man vs technology
I think we can all relate to this video of a man fighting with his Sat Nav.
What makes this one particularly funny is how the man gets angrier and angrier with the Sat Nav who he thinks has a personal vendetta against him.
5. Aengus MacGrianna powdering his face on live TV – the hazards of live TV
In this clip, you can’t help but feel sorry for the RTE news anchor Aengus MacGrianna who is shown live on TV adjusting his tie and powdering his face.
Unbeknownst to him, his broadcast has already started with him caught unawares.
4. The man who fell on the ice – a hilariously unexpected slip-up
In January 2010 Ireland was gripped with cold, ice, and snow, and with the country in a recession, it was a tough time.
However, the Irish people were given a much-needed lift during a live report on RTE News on how Dublin City Council were clearing the streets of winter sludge.
In this video, a man came into view behind the reporter and took a hilarious tumble that you couldn’t help but chuckle at.
3. The Irish family and the bat – catch him, Derry!
This video of an Irish family dealing with a bat, which has flown into their kitchen became famous worldwide as it went incredibly viral.
The phrase, “Catch him, Derry” has become a viral catchphrase and has to be one of the standout moments from the video. Who knew a bat could cause such a hilariously chaotic situation?
2. Castletown Donkey Derby 1994 – a crazy day ou
With nearly a million views on YouTube, this funny Irish video has gone down in history with the star of the show being Joe O’Brien who ended up being the reluctant presenter/commentator of the Castletown Donkey Derby.
The commentary and performance by Joe O’Brien, coupled with the crazy events that occur during the race itself, make for entertaining and funny viewing.
1. What’s snots – live TV at its best
In first place on our list of the funniest Irish videos on YouTube from the past ten years is the ‘What’s Snots?’ video.
‘What’s Snots?’ was a game on the Den, which was a children’s TV show.
The game involved inviting two children over the phone to guess the people, place, person, or object that Snotser was thinking of.
Amy from Cavan and Kevin from Galway were the contestants hoping to win a bicycle, what happened next has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Kevin seemed not to understand the object of the game and what ensued was comedy gold.
That concludes our article on the funniest Irish videos on YouTube from the past ten years. How many of them have you seen?
