An external airbag includes an airbag body and an urging portion. The airbag body is deployed to extend in front of a front pillar and upward along the front pillar from a lower end of the front pillar. The front pillar is disposed along a lateral edge of a windshield of an automobile. The urging portion urges downward a vicinity of a leading end of the airbag body deployed upward along the front pillar such that the leading end is moved back downward along the front pillar, and that forms a space between an intermediate portion of the airbag body and the front pillar.
