I take your point here - I looked at some of his other videos and he's a Grade-A twat for sure, I would not be paying him money to be guided by him. Calling yourself "Brave Dave" is a massive red flag for starters
During and after the accident happened I didn't have any particular criticisms. If he wants to be on Crib Goch in those conditions that's his problem but his big error was using the escape route that was clearly very dangerous, and more dangerous than continuing over Carnedd Ugain (when you've past the most technical sections already if I recall), but worse persuading the other two suckers to follow him down.

Being there in those conditions isn't just his problem though it's it... It's his 3 mates, and also mountain rescue problem too..
Actions and bad decisions like that, put other people's lives at risk, forcing them to come out and assist when really there should be no need. Volunteers who should be at home with their families rather than helping people who should no better..
I appreciate and am so grateful for the emergency services we have in the UK, but sadly they get put in vulnerable positions too often by the folly of others.

Maybe I’m being too harsh, or I’m just used to being with very competent people on the hills - usually fell runners or climbers. But that guy is a guide of some sort. Pretty ridiculous that he’d potentially be in charge of paying customers. Obviously what he does with clients will be very different to what he’s doing in the video, but still.
