VIDEO: Local lad 'water skiing' on flooded road
The current floods are no laughing matter especially for people who have seen their homes and businesses destroyed by water.
However one local lad made the most of an impassable nearby road by jumping on makeshift water skis and being pulled after a SUV near Lorrha in north Tipperary.
The video was filmed by Oisin Harding and has been viewed more than 500,000 times so far.
