Hey Ben! You've inspired me to get into photography so much more! I bought a nice camera while ago but never really knew what I was doing with it. Since then I've entered one of my photos into a world wide high school contest and made it into the top 700. Recently I was kicked by horse while working at my stable and tore every ligament possible in my left knee. While out of commission after surgery I started watching your vlogs a lot, and you inspired me to go on adventures in the future, get creative and just make the most out of life that I possibly can. Unfortunately because of this injury I've missed my whole ski season this year as I live in Vermont at the base of one of the most popular mountains in the US, and I've been skiing for 14 years. It's been pretty difficult to stay sane all winter. Your channel has a really helped keep my spirits up throughout my 6 month recovery and I only have about 2 months until I can start to exercise again! Until then I'm going to keep improving on my photography and I can't wait until it starts to get warm out at nights to try out some long exposures. Thanks for all the unintentional help, and I hope you read this! Xx
It's so nice to watch your vlog at the end of the day. It's so grey and rainy and cold here in Finland at the moment so 10 minutes of the sunny Cape Town is so nice to end the day with!
I noticed that too xD it said in one Nicoles blog posts that south africans dont stop at stop signs lol they just ram it into a lower gear and carry on
That is one mad fire and one pissed of spider! So good to finally watch Ben Brown again! I haven't been able to watch any TH-cam for 4 months, been working in Antarctica, now back in Oz and working on my channel! One Life, One Search, Peace Out, Shane
Ben you need to hit some of the cape town mountain bike trails bruh, looked at some go pro runs earlier and there's some mad downhills out there, would make for absolutely rad vlogs, btw MTB is far far more fun than the road bike
0:36 I can't believe you'd film yourself running a stop sign. Now you'll have to turn yourself in. ;) Dan in the boot & crutches and afraid something was in his shoe was funny & cute. 9:31 "One unhappy bin." Looks cool, sort of Salvador Dalí-ish. I'm glad it was done burning. Smoke from burning plastic is quite toxic. From the small to the large you always have fun & interesting vlogs & good friends. THANKS! P.S. for Americans: 43ºC = 109.4ºF.
Ben u are a very inspiring youtuber! U inspire me to actually do something with my life and not to waist it! Your vlog are so rad!

Hi Man, i'm just starting to potograpgh thanks to you, i know the basics but i was wondering if mabye you can tell me what camera i should get, and whats the best way to learn more about shooting. Thanks ahead LOVE YA
Hey Ben I was wondering what Polaroid you use I am thinking of getting one but there are so many options I dont know which one is best. It would be awesome if you could respond Thanks! P.S your awesome.
I noticed the stop sign thing too, but I'm waaaaayy more concerned about that spider! Yikes! I'd be doing exactly what Dan did haha. Ps the Hump of Happiness turned out awesome!
Ben I was just wondering how you manage to find or go about finding copyright free music to use in your vlogs as I want to start my own. Keep up the great work bro
***** i got 4 R500 tickets in one day for not stopping at a 4 way stopstreet near Nicoles parents house which i considered to be in a stupid place. you need to atleast pretend to stop, they stick mobile cameras up everwhere, careful.
Stop signs are optional before 7am in Woodstock
ok
Haha, thanks for enlighten us. 'Cause yeah I was so confused about that stop !
How dangerous can those fires be and how often do they happen?
I was about to say...um, dude, did you just blow that stop sign? LOL
***** how many people are going to comment on the rolling stop sign.....

Everything you said really resonates with me too man. I love how out there you are and how proud of that you are. You the man Ben, keep being you!
BEN you didn't stop at the stop sign... 0:36 lmao
The road was clear, remember it was early!
I noticed that too xD it said in one Nicoles blog posts that south africans dont stop at stop signs lol they just ram it into a lower gear and carry on
denzelsdaughter Stop signs are optional before 7am in woodstock
Dan's video is awesome and your speech is so inspirational Ben! Oh and your thumbnail is doooope!
"If no ones laughing at your dreams, then your dreams probably aren't big enough"
nice one
That radio voice though!! :D
The 3 hour edit was worth it. I think it was your funniest vlog ever. It's definitely on my top 5 favourites :D
Thanks for putting in the time to create daily vlogs for us Ben!
That is one mad fire and one pissed of spider!
So good to finally watch Ben Brown again! I haven't been able to watch any TH-cam for 4 months, been working in Antarctica, now back in Oz and working on my channel!

Loved how the siren matched the music

You're episode of HOH was short and sweet! Stay amazing x
Dan is such an awesome chap.
Totally blew the stop sign at 0:37. I also do that sometimes early in the AM.
Read the top comment
In Australia, when you're around bushfires you gotta watch out because piles of snakes come slithering out of everywhere.
The destruction of this fire is heart breaking! Happy it is finally under control in most parts.
Love the video Ben!
Just went Straight though that stop sign! Lol
Missed that stop sign at the beginning there Ben! Great video :)
Hi Man, i'm just starting to potograpgh thanks to you, i know the basics but i was wondering if mabye you can tell me what camera i should get, and whats the best way to learn more about shooting. Thanks ahead LOVE YA
Bon Iver is so freaking awesome! Listening to him takes you to another world, fascinating atmosphere :) can't get enough from his music too!
Hey Ben I was wondering what Polaroid you use I am thinking of getting one but there are so many options I dont know which one is best. It would be awesome if you could respond Thanks!
P.S your awesome.
Dan's never not injured, poor thing. And Gary is a human? No wayyy!
Guys, the frequent allusions to "Garry" in Ben's vlogs is subliminal mind conditioning for when Ben adopts me later on in year - just a heads up 🌚
How do you eat Avocados? You're filling the space with balsamic vinegar, I got that. What next? haha
that spider was not okay. I feel for Dan freakin out about it
Ben, where did you get your Brixton SnapBack from? I've literally been looking everywhere for the one you have and can't find it!!!
Hey Ben, I love photography and I wanted to know what lenses you use?
I feel Dan's pain. I had major hip reconstruction surgery and now I'm on crutches for 12 weeks. It's hell already 😔😔. Wish me luck Ben
Do you have gpu assistance enabled for Pr? I'm not sure if you can do that on macs but I know it helps my render time alot!
Dan and I act the same way about spiders and I am glad that I am not the only one!haha
Anybody catch that stop sign he just ran? Lol
TIMMMMMAAAAAYYY!! TIM...TI....TIMMAAAAAAYYYY!
Love the video man!
***** which camera did you use in this video to do timelapses? thank you!
Love your videos bro
Love Bon Iver!
Bon Iver is all I've been listening to too lately !!
So funny how you shocked Dan =D
Sees Ben drive past the stop... immediately checks the comment section to see how many people point it out haha
Why is there always fires in the mountains in Cape Town Ben ?
did he run the stop sign in beginning ? haha :P
Ahhh Dan Mace
Dont stop making videos Ben :)
Can you please put up subtitles because I'm blind.
If by some miracle you haven't already seen it, the video for Bon Iver's Holocene is utterly brilliant, a film makers dream.
You should listen to Volcano Choir
Hey Ben what was the name of that CD album you just mention
What Album is Ben listening in the end i did not get it
I noticed the stop sign thing too, but I'm waaaaayy more concerned about that spider! Yikes! I'd be doing exactly what Dan did haha. Ps the Hump of Happiness turned out awesome!
A human Gary!? That is the only species that was left!!!
Challenge unlocked!
Where do you stay in Cape Town? I would like to go on holiday with my friends there.
As a Cape Townian, your Afrikaans accent was on point, Ben!
Wow!! Everyone's commenting about the stop sign chill 😂😂
Wow your South African accent is spot on! Lol at the Timmy reference.
Dude that album is an absolute masterpiece!!! When you going to Ben Howard btw?
Is Dan using your Sony FS700 or did he purchase his own?
I think he's using Ben's
If you like Bon Iver, you should check out the remix versions on "Bon Iver: Stems project". Especially the Kyson remix of Holocene! Amazing!
yeah ! I can tell its gona be an awesome vid like normal ! :3
it was awesome :)
What music does Ben recommend at 13:10? Thank you in advance x
Bon Iver! Soundcloud it
Ben I was just wondering how you manage to find or go about finding copyright free music to use in your vlogs as I want to start my own. Keep up the great work bro
What camera is Dan using? It looks incredible!
That would be my Sony FS700!
Wear compression gear for recovery or during training! You prob already do but it certainly helps with sore muscles👍
HumpHappiness well done!!!!
Ben at 0:38 you sound like an indigenous Australian! haha
thanks for scaring the sh*t out of me with that spider!! :D please, please, do a warning next time :) I loved the video tho, as usual :)
You sounded exactly like Dan in the beginning. You also ran a stop sign!
Did you just go through a stop sign at the start of the video?
yeah, but I checked both ways haha stupid place to have a 4 way stop street anyway ;)
***** i got 4 R500 tickets in one day for not stopping at a 4 way stopstreet near Nicoles parents house which i considered to be in a stupid place. you need to atleast pretend to stop, they stick mobile cameras up everwhere, careful.
he totally paused
*When your Mixtape drops*
DAAAAAAAAAN!!! I missed you bru!
he blew though a stop sign 00:35
WOW, a human Gary!!
it's very much like Australia
What program do you edit your videos on? Is it Final Cut?
Premiere Pro CC, it's in the description of every vlog. ;)
Shit hahaha
Bon Iver is totally awesome!!!
Ben watch out for spiders in Pumba
Dan is the knarliest bro
Anwesom, a new Video
