The amount of work involved in this is massive. Anyone who has tried to make a film will appreciate this. There is some really good footage of sea cliff climbing which I know from bitter experience is hard won. Well done Mike.

Well done!
P.s gizzus ya dws footage? ;-)
Aside from some sound issues, this is really good. Making me long for an adventure - which I'm pretty sure is the point.
Couldn't agree more. I really enjoyed this, it feels like a truly genuine portrayal of UK sea cliff climbing; and it has saved me from ever being dragged to the Range.
