You certainly wouldn't want to be shy in a situation like that and it's fair to say that, in another time and another situation, it could have been a bit uncomfortable to say the least. However, it genuinely was in the best of spirits and the young lady in question has now confirmed that that's exactly how she viewed the bizarre scenario she found herself in.
The Daily Mail have 'revealed' her identity (which is a strange way to angle it but nonetheless...). Her name is Carla Roméra and she has a rather delightful recollection of the entire experience.
I want to say that I am very proud of the Irish, it was a magical time filled with kindness and joy.
However, as soon as we first saw that footage over the weekend, we were dying to see it from her perspective. And dear God, it's absolutely terrifying.
Carla, we can only commend you for taking that in the spirit that it was intended because I'd hasten to suggest that the vast majority of the world's population, when confronted with that scene would have run a country mile.
And just in case you haven't seen the original, here it is once more.
