Makes me wonder how it was built on such a forbidding bit of rock. Imagine getting the materials there ... holding onto scaffolding as waves crash all about ... convincing the mortar to dry ... and all with the technology of 1899, the year of construction!
check out Bell Rock Light off the east coast of Scotland. Built in 1808 on a ledge that was submerged at all but low tide...amazing engineering feat. At one time the uppermost chamber was a Georgian library (so cool)
I Love this. I've watched this many times. It is haunting for me because It would have been the last sight of Ireland the passengers on board the Titanic would have seen as they set sail for America on that fateful night in 1912.
First notion of this subject happened recently while reading "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" by Jules Verne. Searched for it in the net and here it comes the beauty of sea, island and lighthouse! Thanx for the pleasant video!
This video on the Fastnet Lighthouse is one of the best I've seen. I love this. The music really makes the video come alive. One thing I would like to know, is how are they all maintained to keep them working properly? Surely they must need regular maintenance? They do a lot of work to keep all the ships and cargoes safe. I hope they are never demolished, it would be such a shame to lose them.
Beautiful footage Peter, the silhouette of the keeper against the light is stunning. The quality and colours are excellent, I assumed it was from the 5D.
Absolutely brilliant Peter. It is even more awe-inspiring through this video, and I can't wait to come back and get up close and personal with it again next month in the Round Ireland Yacht Race.
Lindíssimo ,consigo fechar meu olhos e me colocar nesse lugar,ter como companhia uma caneta um caderno e quem sabe esse farol me levaria para outro lugar mágico. Parabéns lindo vídeo
I love your footage! Would it be possible to use a small clip in an upcoming RUclips video of mine? I would of course attribute the footage to you and put a link to your video. 😊
Hey Peter, this is amazing footage. I wanted to ask if I could use a few scenes for a music video of an original song of mine. This would be amazing! I'm really looking forward to hear from you. Much love :) Dominik
We stayed on Cape Clear last year and loved the view towards Fastnet. Loved watching this really nicely shot video too. Would love one day to land on Fastnet ! What model DJI did you use Peter ? It looks so cinematic. I would love to know...
Very nice lighthouse and footage with the drone. Please, welcome on my channel, there are three differents lighthouses of New Zealand. What drone do you use? Me a Bebop2.
Just wondering how you managed to capture such amazing shots? I'm assuming you didn't launch the drone from the mainland. Was thinking about trying this myself with my DJI Phantom 3 professional, any tips?
Amazing footage of such a beautiful lighthouse. It's such a pity that Irish Lights have destroyed it by covering the spectacular lens and opting for a horrible LED light on top of the lantern roof.
Hi Would you mind if I used some of this footage to accompany my song video? It would work perfectly. It's just an original song I've done which won't be monetised. Just want some relevant and emotive footage to work with the music. Hope this is ok? Best wishes - it looks great!
I am from nearby Goleen where we protested against the placing of an LED light on the top of the tower but to no avail. It's an insult to those who built it and has severely compromised the appearance of this iconic outpost of Europe.
Disgraceful that CIL have degraded the iconic sweeping beam of this lighthouse with the approval of the Irish Government and add Unesco World "Heritage"
@Jericho The original lens has been decommissioned to be replaced with a horrible LED on the lantern roof. The Fresnel lens in this video are covered and no longer in use, all to save some money.
You probably think I'm crazy.....This would be ONE on ONE romance for me. *I'M GETTING TO THE POINT where I know WHAT TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT I WANT TO BE AROUND. SO WHEN I GET MY WAY....STRATFORD NEW HAMPSHIRE; POTRERO CALIFORNIA; BRUNSWICK GEORGIA; AND SEDRO WOOLLEY WASHINGTON this ISOLATED is how I INTEND to LIVE for the REST OF MY LIFE OR LIVES.

An absolute work of art.
A monument to the life and care of ships and their precious cargoes.
Lighthouses are beautiful. The sounds of the water rushing against the rocks it makes me sleepy.❤

They didn't use mortar, it's made of cut granite stone and in place of mortar it's held together with molten lead.
SafeSpace2018 it is a joy to see these marvels nowadays with drone footage.
Back then, there were pretty smart people
Ozzy Krahn and back then, men were men.... not metrosexuals with man bags, face creams and feeling offended.
Breath! taking just imagine being out they by yourself in the dark I love lighthouses and all their meaning
You are brave to fly your drone like that. I would be so frightened that I would lose it.
Beautiful imagery and nice choice of music.
Simply Stunning! Great flying and top notch video editing. A+ love it all! Thanks for sharing
Wow. Really helps illlustrate the size of that first order lens. Nice video.
I Love this. I've watched this many times. It is haunting for me because It would have been the last sight of Ireland the passengers on board the Titanic would have seen as they set sail for America on that fateful night in 1912.
So sad....
The Teardrop of Ireland
Amazing! Been quite near on a boat, but that’s really amazing!
This is SO magical. Really beautiful shot - This really shines out on RUclips! Truly exceptional
Magnificent.
simply stunning

I wish you'd make an extended version of this. Watching it and listening to that music is so relaxing.
Это потрясающая работа, Петер! Блестящая! у меня нет слов!!!! Спасибо за это прекрасное видео!

Visited it a week ago you guys. So absolutely worth it.
Beautiful footage Peter, the silhouette of the keeper against the light is stunning. The quality and colours are excellent, I assumed it was from the 5D.
One of the most chillign Videos I've seen for a while! This really gave me goosebumbs. Amazing Job man!
Absolutely brilliant Peter. It is even more awe-inspiring through this video, and I can't wait to come back and get up close and personal with it again next month in the Round Ireland Yacht Race.
Stunning. What an achievement to build that.
Breathtaking!
Two great subject's, the Sun and The Lighthouse. 👍👍.
lived through many a storm on that lighthouse station
John Busher Is it pretty cool? Did you feel safe for the most part?
I would love to be able to visit the lighthouse myself
Are those stairs and ramps carved right into the rock itself? And do you know how they power it with electricity?
Were you a lighthouse keeper
Dawn it’s probably underwater cabling or solar power these days
Fantastic lens.
Fantastic! Love how dramatic the footage looks and the camera angles are great.
Wow ...This is an amazing video!!!
Stunning
Excellent presentation, thank you very much!
Just beautiful!
Beautiful !
superb job Peter - congratulations.

Such a wonderful video. It's a massive pity that Irish lighthouse are choosing to treat these lighthouses the way they have . Heritage lost forever
May I use it to teach my students plz?
Nice
celine dion, un ejemplo de vida familiar de madre, esposa y LA MEJOR sin duda
Hey Peter, this is amazing footage. I wanted to ask if I could use a few scenes for a music video of an original song of mine. This would be amazing! I'm really looking forward to hear from you. Much love :) Dominik
I will look up the history for you
We stayed on Cape Clear last year and loved the view towards Fastnet. Loved watching this really nicely shot video too. Would love one day to land on Fastnet ! What model DJI did you use Peter ? It looks so cinematic. I would love to know...
Very nice lighthouse and footage with the drone. Please, welcome on my channel, there are three differents lighthouses of New Zealand. What drone do you use? Me a Bebop2.
WOW!
Precioso
Hi... Can I use a part of this video like intro for my videocast?
That's insane great vid Peter, is a light house keeper government employed ?
LINDO.👀👀👀...👍
GREAT VIDEO~!! ;)
Just wondering how you managed to capture such amazing shots? I'm assuming you didn't launch the drone from the mainland. Was thinking about trying this myself with my DJI Phantom 3 professional, any tips?
Was this filmed with an DJI Inspire 1 or 2? Or something else?
Man I need this, where I find?
I need now
Phantom 4 pro?
Amazing footage of such a beautiful lighthouse. It's such a pity that Irish Lights have destroyed it by covering the spectacular lens and opting for a horrible LED light on top of the lantern roof.
Hi
Would you mind if I used some of this footage to accompany my song video? It would work perfectly. It's just an original song I've done which won't be monetised. Just want some relevant and emotive footage to work with the music. Hope this is ok? Best wishes - it looks great!
Please contact me through my website petercox.ie to discuss licensing requests
cool but i really wanted to see the lighthouse casting light at night.
Which they've now ruined by removing the optic for an LED
I am from nearby Goleen where we protested against the placing of an LED light on the top of the tower but to no avail. It's an insult to those who built it and has severely compromised the appearance of this iconic outpost of Europe.

A brilliant video! (Pardon the pun.)

So don't HINDER ME on AMENITIES because I wouldn't want to leave my property unless it's EXTREMELY NECESSARY!!!
light how the sakhre quotes
Моя мечта. Боже, услышь меня ...
Everybody that buys a camera drone thinks they’re going to shoot videos like this 😂
Hopefully this hasn't been destroyed by LED...?
