Irish couple runs through a swarm of locusts, just for the craic

A video of biblical proportions.

HERE’S A PAIR of mad yokes if we ever saw one.

DailyEdge.ie reader Ritchie Murphy and his girlfriend were on holidays in Greece last week when they came across a swarm of locusts on a quiet country road.

Ever the thrill-seekers, they dared each other to run through the swarm. The resulting video is weirdly hilarious.

Ritchie says:

Sorry about the girlish screams, it’s embarrassing when you realise your scream is more blood-curdling than your girlfriend’s!

That’s OK Ritchie. There’s no accounting for what happens in this type of situation.
