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.

    @WqM9AAv3: O Shea linked with Celtic as well.
    Szmodics linked with Ipswich, think that might happen.
    Ferguson better off not going to Utd, stay where he is for another season at least.

    7 years for the love of st Peter. The guy is injured half the time. Plus heโ€™s at his best on a counter attacking team. Canโ€™t see Chelseaโ€™s style suiting him.
