'Nicest lad' 23, died after falling 600ft on trip with friends

A young builder was killed when he fell 600ft during a climbing trip with friends.

Jack Carne, 23, was climbing the Snowdonia peak Y Gribin when a handhold broke and he plunged to his death on February 4. Jack was described as a "true gentleman" and the "nicest lad you'll ever meet" after a fundraising page was set up by his devastated friends, North Wales Live reports.

Senior coroner for North Wales east and central, John Gittins, gave "multiple crush injuries" as a provisional cause of death at an inquest opening on Monday, February 13.
