1:52 You should name the video "Climbing Irelands tallest mountain in Sneakers, WTF was I thinking??" 😅

[@ShayK47]

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

[@KDoc1951]

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.

[@colmmahony9378]

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

[@MaritimeFox]

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.

Brill video

[@petaaaa5831]

I know your pain, I climbed Snowden in standard trainers too (wasn’t planning to climb on trip to Wales, but couldn’t resist). Thoroughly recommend hiking boots for mountain walks they make a difference.

Just did Croagh Patrick and dying to do this one now.

[@emadnemati9352]

That reminded me of Lord of the rings 😂❤️

[@chelsyholland790]

Climbed Ben Nevis last week and was looking at what the tallest mountain in Ireland was to add to the others I’ve done (Snowdon/Scafell Pike) thanks for a great video!

[@itsThemuRR]

Thanks for watching, good luck 🤟

you reminded me to buy a good pair of hiking boots..savage video:)

[@itsThemuRR]

Thanks a lot :)

[@toomuch9762]

Devils ladder is probably the easiest way up

[@markhackney3305]

Fair play, thanks for the wonderful images. I'm way too unfit to do it myself, so it was a real treat to watch this. Superb video!

[@mitologijaiokultizam7608]

Wooow, I love it, I dream to wisit Irish highlend my entire life, I love celtic history of Ireland, love nature, everything abot it. Great video by the way, respect for the walk, and best wishes from Serbia. :)

Great video:)) don't mind the rude comments

[@annexplores3933]

Well done guys! Definitely the view is amazing...Hope to climb that one day...Cheers from Northern Ireland

[@blinkspacestudio8892]

The ladder reminds me of parts in death stranding game lol. I would love to do this but might work my way up to it in a year or so.

[@arborealmole8079]

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.

[@PhilShnider]

Did both ways devil's ladder 22/8/2021. Took 7 hours too. Raining and fog on the way down

[@itsThemuRR]

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

[@rossfehily5354]

Concerning footwear

[@itsThemuRR]

Agreed

[@gerardhiggins2103]

Cool video . Great views.

[@adamhafezi]

Beautiful scenery 😍👌

[@nornironnomad]

Just attempted this recently myself! Loved your video, you have a new subscriber!

[@simon8089]

You only flew up 120 metres with the drone 😉🤣 great video, fair play 🙌🏼

[@VirtualFeats]

Great video! We also explore the Irelands mountains! love your footage! 👍 keep up the good work!!

[@iamearthbornami]

that was great.well done and thanks for sharing

[@murman6140]

Not so impressed about your level of preparation for a serious mountain hike with a dangerous 1 hour scramble. You could do with a good pair of hiking boots and proper equipment, not to mention sufficient water 😀

[@itsThemuRR]

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

[@AliVaseghnia]

Nice music

[@itsThemuRR]

Hey man loved you in the Esfahan bridges video 😁🤪

[@peteburke73]

Very cool. Thanks for sharing!

[@carinaneto856]

Great content, thank you! What drone did you use for this?

[@itsThemuRR]

Thank you, the original Mavic Pro.

[@sergeantcrow]

Excellent ! Great to have the aerial footage too...

[@mancity179]

Brilliant thanks guys

[@michaelmcgarry6621]

Hya was it your first time hiking the highest mountain in ireland thanks

[@itsThemuRR]

Yes

[@alexandrechioatto5961]

Nothing on Everest

Runners are not ideal for any form of hiking

[@itsThemuRR]

I agree!

[@aibel99]

Turty tree!

[@Josh-uk8mg]

8:13 not surprised... hiking a mountain in Adidas trainers 🤦

[@itsThemuRR]

Hahah fair

[@boxingfit]

Very well done guys...What are the basic needs to climb this mountain?.. if you go online they tell you that youneed this and that and it can be off putting

[@itsThemuRR]

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.

[@boxingfit]

@@itsThemuRR preparation with regards to fitness???

[@maricarmangaliman]

Wow super cool

[@Nikotastik]

Do those sheep have blue butts? Or is that the lighting? I’ve seen a lot of mountain goats, but not sheep. 😂

[@itsThemuRR]

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

[@beeohel6787]

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

[@beeohel6787]

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

[@toomuch9762]

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

[@farzin294]

Next challenge, climb mount damavand 😅😉

[@itsThemuRR]

I'd love to!

[@farzin294]

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

[@jasonsportsman9227]

Love my motherland!!!

[@marcosross790]

Great camera and drone views. One small point. That was a cross on the summit. A crucifix is a little different.

[@malcolmabram2957]

I walked the whole Reeks range in 1993. As a Munroist, the Reeks in my opinion is one of the top 5 hill walks in the whole of the British Isles.

[@toomuch9762]

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).

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

[@papps44]

What is it with folk who climb a mountain dressed like they are going to a music festival. How dumb is that. You should a have decent stout footwear, proper outdoor clothing, walking poles (to prevent injuries), good supply of water and food. Carrauntoohil is not a relaxing fun climb but a challenging one. Whoever watches this video think on, local mountain rescue people go to a lot of trouble and personal risk to rescue unprepared idiots looking to be social media stars.

[@itsThemuRR]

I bet you're fun at parties Shaun 😁

[@MyBugaloos]

Gowl

[@stevenchurma1156]

Cool video, well done. I am from Ontario, Canada and climbed the mountain in 1999 on a vacation trip I took to the British Iles. We stayed at a self catering place in Beaufort , a lovely place and went to the Beaufort Bar & Restaurant quite often.

[@itsThemuRR]

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

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

Looks amazing, great video

[@Menopausesucks123]

Great video headed there from Alaska in June just one question what's the protocol for peeing? I don't want to be disrespectful to the area but do we just find a spot?

Yep you just find a spot and go for it lol
