Two English YouTubers have filmed themselves sneaking into the home of the GAA, Croke Park, climbing the roof, running through the stands and doing backflips on the hallowed pitch.
YouTuber Kain Hogg, 23, and his friend Brogan jetted from Liverpool to Dublin to infiltrate Ireland's largest and formerly Europe's third-largest stadium on Jones' Road.
Hogg is a well-known urban explorer and content creator, with video footage of his exploits later being posted online. His stunts have hit the headlines several times over the years, having previously snook onto the roof of Liverpool's Anfield stadium for a Champions League game and "surfed" a moving train.
A minute-long clip posted to Hogg's TikTok account with over 40,000 followers over the weekend has already garnered nearly 90,000 views, almost 10,000 likes and over 250 comments on the popular video-sharing platform at the time of writing.
The footage shows Hogg and his friend scoping out a way into Croke Park on Dublin's north side, referring to it as a "fortress" before eventually finding a way into the grounds.
Once inside, the pair can be seen roaming through the back corridors, the stands and the roof of the stadium before the video closes out with Brogan doing a backflip on the pitch.

The clip has sparked a furious reaction in the comments section with users appalled that Hogg cannot remember the stadium's name, and for sneaking into one of Ireland's national treasures.
Taking to Twitter, one viewer stated: "Who's this gonna impress when you don't know anything about the place. It deserves a lot more respect than some attention seeker looking for views."
While another said: "Lad that’s a disgrace breaking into something of such value to Ireland."
The full video of their trip to the Irish capital was uploaded to YouTube on Tuesday. You can view the full video below:
