Ringaskiddy, aka ‘Viagra Falls’ is a village in County Cork, Ireland where pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has been manufacturing Viagra since the 1980s
Residents of the village of Ringaskiddy in County Cork claim the fumes from the local Pfizer factory, which has long produced the erectile dysfunction drug, are arousing their menfolk, the Sunday Times reports.
EDS is not considered a bane in this small Irish village where the impotency drug is manufactured revels in its reputation for a vigorous sex life.
So far, the men are not complaining, locals allegedly joked that men in the area do not have any ‘problems in that department’, while social media users have said they want to take their honeymoons in the Irish village.
“One whiff and you’re stiff,” local bartender Debbie O’Grady told the paper.
The stimulating vapors are even affecting man’s best friend, they say.
“Even the dogs here have been known to walk around in a state of sexual excitement,” Fiona Toomey, a former town resident and employee at the Pfizer plant told the Times.
Toomey, 37, who was visiting her hometown after a move to Albany, NY said: “I think that Viagra must have got into the water supply,” added Toomey.
“I’m convinced that’s what happened at the very beginning before they were so closely regulated.”

Some residents also claim the village experienced a baby boom after Viagra production began at the local factory around 1998, according to the report.
But the company claimed that the “Viagra in the air” tale is nothing but a myth.
“Our manufacturing processes have always been highly sophisticated as well as highly regulated,” a Pfizer spokeswoman told the paper.
Ringaskiddy is the inspiration for the comedy film “Holy Water” — about the theft of a Viagra truck. With police on their tail, the robbers dump the Viagra into a well, turning the village sex-crazy, according to the report.
“I wouldn’t say that’s how we are exactly,” Sadie told the paper. “We’re just happy.”
The manufacture has countered telling the newspaper: “Our manufacturing processes have always been highly sophisticated as well as highly regulated.”
Viagra is so far the only erectile dysfunction medicine to be reclassified from “prescription only medicine” to “pharmacy” status in Britain. The drug will be available in UK pharmacies from spring 2018.

Residents of Ringaskiddy chuckled at the news that Viagra will soon be made available over the counter in the UK, noting they’ve never had to pay a cent.
“We’ve been getting the love fumes for years now for free,” Debbie O’Grady’s mother, Sadie, told the Sunday Times. Incidentally the town is said to have experienced a baby boom after the production of Viagra commenced, in the late ’80s.
“It’s amazing the number of people who come to this village, perhaps out of curiosity, and then never leave,” she added. “They settle down here. As they say, there’s something in the air — not that we need it, of course. But for some fellas with problems in that department, it can be a blessing.”
