Dubliners strolling along the Liffey yesterday evening might have thought they were seeing things, a sort of mirage from the heat perhaps, but nope.
There actually were flamingos and unicorns in the river guys.
The rare sighting of such exotic creatures obvs turned out to be a few teenagers on inflatables having a laugh, but it provided a great deal of entertainment for passersby.
We're not too sure how safe this really was, but the footage of them all floating down on the scorcher of a day is something we won't forget for quite a while.
Only in Dublin eh?
