VIDEO: The 1916 Easter Rising brilliantly explained in just 8 minutes

For anyone who was asleep on their desk in history class.

Did anyone out there fail history in the Junior Cert? Asking for a friend.

Well, if you weren't paying much attention and now actually care about what happened in Dublin 100 years ago this Easter, then this video from John D Ruddy is for you.

Using some wonderful illustrations throughout, this should be mandatory viewing for anyone who spent their school years listening absent mindedly to popular music and daydreaming about lassies. Ye pups.
