How to kiss
the Blarney Stone

 

First

Climb five stories up the castle via a tight spiral staircase.

Then

Lie on your back on a floor slab area (outlined in white in left photo on page one).

Next

Arch backwards and downwards. For support, you grab the two vertical iron bars on either side of the Blarney Stone. A castle staffer holds onto your legs or midsection just in case.

Finally

You're now in position to kiss the hard-to-reach Blarney Stone.

Worth wondering
