Video: Ireland’s youngest ever stuntman flies down the nations slippiest slide

Eoin McLoughlin is tougher than most

Eoin McLoughlin is tougher than most.

The rain can put a dampener on most activities around Ireland as football matches get called off, plans are ruined and people get soaked to their very soul.

Two year old dardevil Eoin McLoughlin isn’t one for letting a few drops of rain spoil his fun though because he braved the rainy conditions to visit his local park in Rathcoole, Dublin with his aunt Fiona.

What happens next is the closest thing that you’ll ever see to a human log ride as he absolutely flies down Ireland’s slippiest slide.

Like a trooper, Eoin walked away from the incident uninjured and to quote the film Hot Rod, ‘Life’s short, stunt it!’
