strange sighting on henry street today

spider_pig

did any body see the begger there at lunch time going up henry st noting strange about that you might think

so here's the strange part


his legs where back the front, say i was kneeling down my feet would end up behind my body but this guy was kneeling down and his legs were facing out totally in the opposite direction.
i would have thought that was physically impossible but this guy was walking like this with a cup in his hand.
i walked back down about an hour later but no sign of him surely me and my friend weren't dreaming and someone else also seen this

Jev/N

Ah Ol' Backward Legs, the crazy mo-fo :pac:



But seriously, haven't seen him but saw him mentioned on here before, so you're not deluded or anything!

they all go on tour, there used to be a 1 legged girl at newlands cross every morning & evening, few months later she was over at Total fitness on the malahide rd and then the roundabout at the N32/M50 junction....a bloke with a gimpy leg hooked over his crutches used to take her place everytime she moved on...

There was a girl with a similar condition working Grafton Street about 2 weeks ago. She got very cross with a girl who tried to start a conversation with her.
