I'm sure it must be a lack of a chemical reaction that informs the conscious of the danger present that enables some people to do these ludicrous acts?
If you have ever passed the carcass of sheep at the foot of a mountain, it is usually because the animal has been blown off the face by strong gusts, which are prevalent around the heights of Snowdon.
I've been up Snowdon when a storm moved in, the static of charge lifted my hair on end. Managed to get down before the lightning started.
To be honest, going across the Crib in gale force winds is somewhat irresponsible, especially without rope. Well done to doing it, but if you're going to play with lives make sure it is your own, and not that of potential rescuers.
I'm sure there will be other's equally stupid enough to cross the Crib in even more dangerous conditions!
WOW!!! you guys must have been crazy to do crib coch in a gale force wind, i bet no-one would do that, you must surely be profesionals!! those climbing bits look really scary!!, its a great video though, considering the conditions look so hazadous, are you going to do anymore crazy mountain vids? i cant wait to see them
Just been up from Pen Y Pass, over Crib Goch, then Snowdon like yerselves. Similar conditions, very slightly less windy tho! Oh yeah - it was my first ever climb too!!!!
thanks, glad you liked it, going across in fine weather doesn't give the same sense of achievement. sensible choice to bottle it and be safe, than have to call the big yellow bird!
friggin nuts, braver than me.

I was up the rhyd ddu path last weekend and chickened out of that on the "ridge" in similar conditions (60mph gusts apparently). You guys are crazy.
Glad you made it safely. Looks bonkers. At least with the hill fog you couldn't see the drop I guess...
