The Man Who Slipped on the Ice
On 8 January 2010, during a RTÉ Six One News report, a pedestrian slipped on ice in Dublin, Ireland, close to the Four Courts. The man became known as "The Man Who Slipped on the Ice" after the video of him slipping and falling went viral online, gaining several million views on YouTube and the website of RTÉ (Raidió Teilifís Éireann). Several Facebook groups were created to identify the man, although his true identity still remains uncertain. It is considered one of the "most iconic" clips of Irish television history and an icon of Irish pop culture. Ten years later, on 8 January 2020, Coors Light erected a permanent plaque at the location in Dublin to mark the incident's tenth anniversary.
