How to Successfully Evade Assassination: A Case Study of Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch!

Find out how Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch dodged bullets and glasses, proving that sometimes, being stylish is more about clarity than eyewear!

Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch certainly knows how to keep a low profile—well, as low as one can be when you hold such a notorious nickname! Recently, Hutch made headlines as he claimed that on one fateful evening, he found himself concealing his identity behind a pillar in a Dublin pub to dodge an incoming assassination attempt. Not your average Friday night out, right? Behind that pillar, Hutch might have felt like a cork bobbing on the waves of danger, reminding us that sometimes bar stools can double as makeshift shields!

In an unexpected twist of fate, Hutch also narrated how he survived a second assassination attempt just 24 hours later, crediting his quick thinking and lack of glasses for his survival. Picture this: what if the secret to avoiding danger was as simple as not wearing the specs? Clearly, Hutch’s clear vision—or lack thereof—might just have saved him from becoming an unintentional target in a game of life and death. Who knew the pub scene could have such high stakes?

While many would panic in such situations, Hutch's cool demeanor makes one wonder if he’s really a protagonist straight out of an action movie, dodging not just bullets but also the bad press that seems to follow him like a loyal sidekick. Perhaps he could write a handbook on how to stay off the radar while still enjoying a pint, fitting for Dublin’s most notorious figure.

However, let’s face it: evading bullets and mingling in pubs isn’t just a Dublin affair. Around the globe, people have their own methods of dodging danger, whether it’s a failed pickpocket scheme in Paris, or foot chases in New York. Hutch's close encounters remind us that sometimes the danger isn’t in the surroundings, but in the choices we make.

Speaking of notoriety, did you know that Gerry Hutch was once linked to the infamous gangland wars of Dublin, making him a household name? On the other hand, the world of eyewear has its own dangerous territories: a 2021 report indicated that more than half of Irish adults wear glasses, but not all of them are adept at dodging disaster like our friend Hutch here! Life’s all about perspective, literally and figuratively!
