    WOW!! That looked terrifying. Well done you...... another fear faced and beaten! I have no idea how you managed to film while climbing that. A brilliant video. I loved it. Thank you.

    Well done Jem for someone with a fear of heights that took guts. I was there 4 weeks ago but just for lunch as I was on a car rally to Italy camping all the way.

    Well done Jem for facing your demons by doing a great climb. You set the atmosphere with the music and made it all look effortless, which I am sure it wasn't. Respect to all you ladies. Keep en coming xx

    Very impressive, especially as you have a fear for heights, even more impressive. I was supposed to do this with my son 3 years ago and it has still not happened but a real insight watching you go over and loved the dramatic music too. As well as being a fair-weather hiker, I am also a fair-weather camper and wild swimmer too, so well done to you all for going in at the end, looked dam chilly, cheers Alan

    Great vid as usual Jem. Editing etc just gets better and better. I know Honister well as I was born and brought up only 10 miles away or so. Trying to retire back to the area. You seem so much more buoyed up now after your little moment of doubt a few weeks ago. Keep pushing and bag those 40 peaks.

    I think I've been there when I was a kid, not the cliffs or caves, just a steep slate slope. Although I did see some caves and old mining equipment. It was about 30 years ago so I couldn't tell you where it was exactly, there was a cave with a huge entrance but it was gated off and I couldn't find a way in.

    That looked amazing. Scary but thrilling at the same time. I wouldn't mind having a go at this myself. I'm not great with heights but knowing that you're strapped on the whole time would be all I'd focus on to get me through it. What a fantastic experience it must've been. 😃💪
