    “That was wild!”

    An Irish dad from Newry, Patsy, was travelling to Liverpool for his daughter’s university graduation ceremony. His daughter Michelle decided to capture the moment her dad took off into the air for the very first time.

    Nerves might have been what this Irish dad experienced as the plane took off but he didn’t show it, and his reaction made him an internet hit. The 57-year-old dad seemed to take it all in his stride.

    Michelle loved the reaction of her dad and uploaded the video to facebook and commented that: “It’s sure to brighten everyone’s day!”

    Since posting the video to Facebook, the video has been viewed over 110,000 times. Michelle added: “My daddy’s first time on a plane & I managed to catch a video of “The Take Off”……it was too good not to share”.

    Watch the video below:
