Video: This compilation of Irish bubble football collisions is brilliant craic

This looks like an awful lot of fun

Eric Lalor

Bubble football has the best collisions in the world of sport.

We’ve been aware of the joys of Bubble Football for a while now.

The concept is pretty simple; people are cocooned in big plastic bubbles running around a football pitch trying to play football… but invariably they’re just running around, ignoring the football and mainly looking for someone to collide with.

A great man once mused “I get knocked down, but I get up again, you’re never going to keep me down.”

You’re thinking that was Plato or Socrates, but it’s from the ancient five-piece think tank from Burnley, Chumbawumba.

Look at this compilation video and we defy you not to smile.

We are definitely having a work outing to play this. What a great way of de-stressing the mind!
