Eat the Peach

In an Irish village a few miles from the border with Northern Ireland, Vinnie and Arthur decide to build their own 'Wall of Death'.

Inspired by the 1964 Elvis Presley film Roustabout, Vinnie (Stephen Brennan) and Arthur (Eamon Morrissey) decide to build their own 'Wall of Death', a high-walled, barrel-like tank where centrifugal force keeps the rider circling up in the air. Against his wife’s wishes, Vinnie clears a patch near his house and begins work, with the aim being that the wall will be a source of income as people buy tickets to watch his and Arthur's daring performances.
