Father filmed bouncing on bog ground: ‘Like walking on sponge cake’

A viral video shows a father bouncing on bog ground that is described as “like walking on a Black Forest gateau”.

Gary McHugh and his father Cathal were walking the Dearg Line, near Barnes Mor in County Donegal , Ireland , when they found themselves next to the ground.

Interesting footage shows Cathal bounding across the wobbly land as if he was stepping on a water bed.

Gary said: “The whole thing has the consistency of walking on Black Forest gateau.”

“It’s just like walking on a sponge cake, that feels a bit more interwoven and firm.”
