Video: Ever wanted to see Keith Barry climb down a well in a pub in Sligo? Now’s your chance…

Keith Barry - Well Hacker.

Well, well, well, what have we got here…

If you’re a regular visitor to Harry’s Bar and Gastro Pub in Rosses Point, Sligo, then you’ll be well aware that the establishment is home to a 14 foot well, right in the middle of the pub.

Well, they don’t call it “the pub with the well” for nothing…

See?

According to Harry’s website, the pub “boasts a spectacular quirky character, with tonnes of local maritime memorabilia on the walls. The highlights of the pub are the many large fish tanks and the historic well in the back bar giving the pub the nickname ‘The pub with the well.'”

Well, now they can add another pub highlight to the list as Irish mentalist of the year, Keith Barry, while visiting Harry’s over the weekend, stripped down to his undies in order to squeeze into the well and climb down to visit the fishy residents below.

No doubt the magician and hypnotist will be taking his brand new show Keith Barry – Well Hacker to a theatre near you in the not-too-distant future. In the meantime though, feast your eyes on the video of the bizarre event, sent into JOE on Facebook by Nada Mousa.

We will warn you, however, the most terrifying thing about the video is that the footage has been filmed vertically. Don’t try this at home kids…

 

Here at JOE, we’re sending our love down the well. Doooooooown thaaaaaat wellllllll…

Hat-tip to Nada Mousa for sending this in on Facebook.
