    If it was called bush diving, then there might be more interest...

    Achill must be dire if you've resorted to jumping in bushes for fun.

    Bush Jumping can regularly be seen in all places where drink and bushes are readily available.

    We were jumping/throwing each other into bushes in the 80's, 'new sport' my arse - my generation invented it.

    Basically it is moshing without a mosh pit and so you use a fecking bush instead.

    Nonsense, my grandpappy was the bush jumping champion of connemara for 6 years running. They did it at night too as the tans would shot them if they found them jumping bushes in the traditional Irish way.

    They're jumping into Rhododendron bushes which are an invasive species, the lads aren't doing nearly enough damage to them :pac:

    New me arse. One if the lad in college was partaking in a spot of bushing when intoxicated one night. He bounced off one particular bush, rebounded, lost his balance, slipped and split his head open off a kerb. Think it was 14 stitches. Nice.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Pah as a child of the 80s did this and garden wall hopping races as a daily activity. Infact I bruised my rooms landing on a stump after hurtling through a bush.
