The Galway lad from the 'Cinnamon Challenge Dad' video popped up on First Dates Ireland

It’s HIM.

ONE OF THE undisputed best moments in the history of the Irish internet was Cinnamon Challenge Dad.

Here, refresh your memory from 2012:

The viral challenge was simple: eat a spoonful of ground cinnamon in under 60 seconds.

Loads of people were trying it, but not many had their dad barking out insults at them while it happened

“WHAT IS THAT? You’re a f**king moron Mike!”

“They’re laughing their holes off at you”

It was watched over 300,000 times, was peak Irish dad and made our list of the funniest Irish YouTube videos of the last decade.

You might have thought he was lost to the faded mists of the internet, but he popped up on First Dates Ireland last night!

He had himself a *lovely* date

They were both seriously sound.

And he showed her the video

Of course.

People were delighted to see him back on their screens

That video is just pure nostalgia

Bring him back RTÉ

He qualifies.

No word on whether they consumed any cinnamon on their date – but if they did, he would have had it gone like *that*.
