WATCH: “Mick Conlan said he’d box the head off us if we didn’t get the gold!”

We think you're pretty safe lads.

After claiming Ireland's first ever rowing medal in the form of a hard-fought silver, Cork's O'Donovan brothers were only concerned about the fact that they didn't bring home the gold. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/764098734451990528 Gary and Paul O'Donovan are the toast of Team Ireland after the Skibbereen pair finished behind France in the men’s lightweight double sculls final. And as impressive as the O'Donovans' rowing has been in the past week, it's been their interviews that have sent them from relative unknowns to viral superstars.

As Olympic runners-up, Gary and Paul spoke to RTÉ when they delivered their most memorable interview of all as they joked that Belfast's Michael Conlan would "box the head" off of them if they brought back anything less than gold. The interview, albeit short, was a rollercoaster of comedy gold as we got a live congratulations to the French, a near-vomit and a rousing "Tiocfaidh ár lá!" Thank you, Gary and Paul.
