“Shoving My Fadder Into A Balloon”: Irish Man Hilariously Bounces Around In Giant Green Balloon

In a viral video on X (Twitter) from Kerry, Ireland, Tadhg Fleming shows the process it took to encase his father in a giant balloon. Before you watch, please use the facilities and have laugh tissues available because it is hilarious. We’ll start by pointing out the reaction of the family dog, who wanted no part of these shenanigans! The dog lounges in the background throughout the video, not moving a muscle. It is possible he thought he might be in the giant balloon next.

The video begins with the father in a chair. Tadhg Fleming is in the foreground with a giant green balloon and a leaf blower, saying, “Hey guys. Come with me as I shove my fadder into the balloon.” He uses the blower to inflate and stretch the balloon. The blower fires up, and it is game on! (NSFW language in the video below.)

Although visibly apprehensive, Tadhg’s father seems willing to play along. Once the balloon is large, they begin the process with the feet.

While they struggle, the balloon loses air, so the first effort only gets his father up to the knees. The blower returns to add more air to expand the balloon again. The struggle became real once they got the balloon up over the father’s waist. Tadhg called in some backup assistance, getting his sister involved in these shenanigans.

Success As The Giant Balloon Caper Continues

They got the balloon up to their father’s neck and filled it with more air to allow him room to move. Tadhg had to climb onto the chair to fill the balloon. Once a proper inflation was achieved, the three celebrated with jumps and laughter. The joy of success!
