120kg Adam Jones teaches you how to tackle someone through a sheet of glass

Getting tackled by Adam Jones does not look fun.

ADAM JONES ISNโ€™T going to the World Cup, and that makes us sad.

The Welsh legend retired from international rugby in January after being dropped by Warren Gatland, finishing his Welsh career with 95 caps, a further five test appearances for the Lions bringing up his hundred.

After moving from Cardiff Blues to Harlequins at the end of the season, the 34-year-old has been kicking his heels over the summer, so he joined up with fellow Welshman Lee Dainton, he of MTVโ€™s Dirty Sanchez fame.

The pair teamed up to demonstrate โ€œscientificallyโ€ โ€“ and we use that term loosely โ€“ the physical impact of being hit by a 120kg prop.

While the science is pretty sketchy, the slow motion replays are pretty sensational.

Thereโ€™s also the added bonus of seeing Jones finally get that shampoo deal heโ€™s been holding out for.

    Surely in the scenario described he would have been an hour early with Chicago being an hour behind the eastern coast. Unless the earth spins in the opposite direction statesideโ€ฆ.

    Ten minutes is the the time most golfers turn up for their tee time, no big deal.
