P. S. Great video. Drone shots on point.

Absolutely. Most non-lethal injuries on Irish mountains involve the lower limbs (thankfully, less often, fatal cases tend to result from cardiac arrests and head injuries). There is signage erected by Kerry Mountain Rescue about this before the the start of the Carrauntoohill hike. Incidentally, most accidents occur on the descent. Regular serious hikers know the value of good supporting boots, and also proper clothing - weather conditions on Irish hills can change in an instant. Having said that, the footage is amazing.

Yous are very lucky coming down Carratoohil in runners, not surprised ur feet were in bits Excellent video anyways.

Walking poles really make descents and steep ascents a lot easier. As mentioned, proper walking boots with good ankle support will stop any ankle sprains. Things can go South very fast if you have a sprained ankle and the weather changes.

Thanks for watching, good luck 🤟

Thanks a lot :)

I did this one recently and if you want two good hikes to lead up to it you could check out the knockmealdown mountains or the galties.

Fair play going down that way! Did it again with a group at the end of July. Foggy at the top 🙄

Thank you, the original Mavic Pro.

Hey man loved you in the Esfahan bridges video 😁🤪

I'd love to!

MURR haha id love to aswell but i get out of breath walking up some stairs so idk. 😂

Hiking shoes, rain gear (if going to rain), snacks and a sufficient amount of water. Expect it to take 5 - 8hrs round trip. It can be chilly at the top so take that into consideration.

@@itsThemuRR preparation with regards to fitness???

They're all sheep not goats. The blue is spray paint presumably put on by the farmer that owns them for identification purposes.

@Iranian look up Puck Goat festival in County Kerry That might help you 😘💚

@Iranian it will tell you the difference between a goat and a sheep

Since ive taken up hiking i have a new found respect for sheep. Grave away on cliff edges not a bother on them. Total badasses

Yes

Yep you just find a spot and go for it lol

Truth my man

@@itsThemuRR Confirmed in the Bible.

Hahah fair

Agreed

Back when I was only 7! Glad you enjoyed your time here!

British isles, lol.......tsk

Yes a couple of oversights for sure but hey we survived and know better for the next time!

Please dont use that colonial term. The English love to use it as it seems they cant get over the fact ireland is a republic. Like a scorned x girlfriend 🤣

@@toomuch9762 The British Isles is the internationally recognised term to describe the group of islands of the coast of NW Europe. What term am I supposed to use. You take offence, but then do I not have the right to take offence. I fully defend Eire to be an independent state (I lived there for 3 years).

@@malcolmabram2957 the British isles isa colonial term coined in the 1600’s by the British. So tell me this, how the fuk can the islands off the cost of Ireland be irish isles british isles and European isles? Da fuk is wrong with you people

The term your supposed to use is the Republic of Ireland. We are not part of the British Isles. Maybe open up a history book and have a read on the Irish war of independence.

@@philipmcnamara9715 We need to start saying “The Irish Isles”! Much better

I agree!

I bet you're fun at parties Shaun 😁
