Argghh. Why do cocktalkers love guessing at statistics?

so given that the average ability in UK and Norway is about the same
The obesity rate in the UK is twice that of Norway (22 compared to 10%), so perhaps only half as many of the overall population will have climbed 8b? There's some really awful maths.....
no science, just the huge numbers of us in times gone by that did the lycra thing / buoux at easter LPT in summer etc.... sort of climbing....
They have 8bs in Norway or they all did them in France? Where? Lofoten, or futher south. We went to this bigish sport crag a fair few hours from Oslo, but in sweden once, south of the Mecca of Bohuslan, that the locals were delighted to inform us that Steve Mclure and Big Frank and possibly Yuji had visited. [pic]Photo not great sorry, but it'd be excellent if there were more crags like that.
The sports-climbing around Stavanger and Bergen is supposedly really good....
Only 4 Norwegians have ever done 8c routes.
