Although it is unclear as to why the 37-year-old was trying to jump the bunker, he did caption the video with: "For everyone asking how I broke my leg, it was of course, by being a complete legend. I finally got my golf handicap."
It is believed that O'Reilly has taken up the game only recently and has appeared on a few golfing related YouTube videos. In one video, he stated that "he took up golf as a replacement for booze."
