    Achill must be dire if you've resorted to jumping in bushes for fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,384 ✭✭✭Duffy the Vampire Slayer


    Bush Jumping can regularly be seen in all places where drink and bushes are readily available.

    We were jumping/throwing each other into bushes in the 80's, 'new sport' my arse - my generation invented it.

    Basically it is moshing without a mosh pit and so you use a fecking bush instead.

    Nonsense, my grandpappy was the bush jumping champion of connemara for 6 years running. They did it at night too as the tans would shot them if they found them jumping bushes in the traditional Irish way.

    They're jumping into Rhododendron bushes which are an invasive species, the lads aren't doing nearly enough damage to them :pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    New me arse. One if the lad in college was partaking in a spot of bushing when intoxicated one night. He bounced off one particular bush, rebounded, lost his balance, slipped and split his head open off a kerb. Think it was 14 stitches. Nice.

    Here's a new sport of which I approve: ventilating a Porsche:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Pah as a child of the 80s did this and garden wall hopping races as a daily activity. Infact I bruised my rooms landing on a stump after hurtling through a bush.
