Watch: Dara Ó Briain Nails Photographer In The Head With Sloitar At Lord's Cricket Ground

Aside from being one of the funniest men this island has produced, Dara Ó Briain is also a big sports fan.

When he's not moaning about his beloved Arsenal and their fondness for fourth place, he's keeping up with the GAA, so when he was asked to participate in a photoshoot to promote the upcoming cricket series between Ireland and England at Lord's, he brought his hurley and sliotar along too.

A comedy moment came out of the shoot when Ó Briain was asked to strike the sliotar over the photographer, but instead planted one right on his head.

Immaculate!

Great stuff.

Interestingly the video is titled 'Dara Ó Briain's Hurling Fail' on Lord's official Facebook page.. Looks like a win to us.

The comedian himself described the shot as possibly the best strike in hurling history as he tweeted after the fact.

The photographer was fine, apart from a bump on the head, and like all good photographers was thankful that nothing happened to his equipment.
