My skull was my reward for winning the marathon world championships in 2010, my triangle on my hand reminds me to keep moving forward and make progress, and my turtle/Pura Vida tattoo on my leg is a reminder of my amazing time in Costa Rica. New tattoos - mountains on my arm & VV on my wrist because I didn't know what I wanted until 5 mins before I got them!

    - Why aren't you training for kayaking anymore? - I see new opportunities everyday, I'm just grabbing them as they appear and keep working hard, right now that's TH-cam & Film. I'm happy I made the change!
    - How long do your vlogs take to edit? - They vary massively, sometimes 1 hour sometimes 6+

    Your work shows dedication, skill, and most importantly of all, passion towards your goal.
    I'm honoured to have been able to spend the time together through Generator Arctic. You're a source of inspiration to many, and wield it well.
    Thanks, Ben.

      I tried but come on really? Reacting to? "ULTIMATE ... "? "10 Things that"? We have enough of this. Also you might check your caps lock, it seems to be broken. Think about what you want to archive and come out with your very own unique style

    Seeing Mr Chris Hatfield answer a question about Nr 2s with such engagement makes me happy. That question was 100% legitimate and genuine. And no kid laughed or made fun of it. It just shows that these kids are very mature and clearly interested in their guest!

  • @celimendez7620
    @celimendez7620 7 ปีที่แล้ว +397

    This video made me cry. What Chris said about you...Ben, he is absolutely right. You are an amazing person, who lets us explore the world and connect with other people through art in video form. I have been watching your videos for 3 years now, and I don't regret watching any of them. They are fun, entertaining, and inspiring. You deserve all the good things, and none of the bad ones hahaha. Keep on being you. And tell Nicole to give you a massive hug from me.
    PS: stop uploading when I'm at work, you'll get me in trouble!!!

    That cute little kid reacting to 80 million horsepower = me during this entire trip pretty much. :) He is all of us who were on that ship!!!
    Ben - your awesome talk at the end was amazing. Tim also hit the nail on the head. I think all of us came into it without any real expectations and it ended up being on of the most life-changing experiences artistically and otherwise.
    Also, Danny's songs about the ship = masterpieces. "everything screwed to the floor"...

    I'm so ashamed! I've wasted so many precious days of my life being non-productive. Too many excuses. Though I am battling stage IIIc ovarian cancer, and have gone through surgery/chemotherapy, this particular video has made me even more aware of how golden each day is. Ben, your video has inspired me. I'm not sure how long I have left on this earth, but to the best of my ability, I will try to do more, and be more.

    I'm a 51 aussie surfer living in west sumatra, in a place where i could count the number of westerners i meet each month on 2 fingers. I found your channel about a year ago through searching for surfing vids in SA. I enjoyed a couple episodes, but drifted away as I had Ben pegged as just another youtube vlogger out for fame and fortune, nothing wrong with that, just not my cup of tea. This latest arctic series has been excellent, i have completely become a fan, and i have found myself digging around in the back catalogue. If I can make one suggestion Ben, it would be keep doing THIS!! I love the way you have shown 2 sides of the story. Sure its not cool to eat Narwhale - to our western sensibilities its offensive but these people rely on it for survival..well handled..i would have done the same. And Chris Hadfield's summary of Ben's role, may have even surprised Ben. I watched your vids on re-foresting in Africa (sorry forgot which country). Brilliant. You don't have beat people over the with an environmental message. Better to do it subtly and showing the human impact as well, mixed in with a lot of fun. Keep up the good work mate. Subscribed..

    @beccadabeast6681 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I feel like this is one of your best vlogs because it addresses why storytelling and art is so important in the grand scheme of things. It's about being a better human being and being aware of others and their stories. Being constantly humbled and never forgetting where you and every other person on this planet come from. Thank you, Ben. This is so unbelievably inspiring to me.

    Mr Ben Brown!!! idk if you know this but the way you feel about chris, everything you said, is literally how we feel about you. You don't even understand how much your vlogs have had an influence on me. They might have influenced some random decisions, like me going to volunteer in south africa, or me taking up photography, but these little decisions are going to add up and direct my life towards a pathway that inspires me and have truly always wanted. Love you for who you are and everything that you have done for us. Hope to meet you one day and cry about it too haha.

  • @CosmeticHearts
    @CosmeticHearts 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love how respectful you are towards everyone who is approaching you...doesn't matter how young or old or in which 'position' they find themselves in...you treat everyone the same and like they matter.
    And they do. We all are.
    This behaviour should be normal and granted but it's just not unfortunately, so thank you Ben once again.
    Loving the vlogs and the spirit of life you spread!!!
    Keep it up but don't rush anything-we are here!!!

    After this vlog I just had to go back and like every single arctic vlog. It's just such a joy to see these videos and to see the world through you, at a point in my life where I simply can't afford to see the world, I mean going on such a trip is very unlikely to ever happen to the majority of us, so to be able to experience just a tiny tiny bit is so incredible and I'm really thankful for that :)

    Honestly, your Arctic journey is by far the most successful blog series you have ever done. You're doing a great job immortalizing this unique environment. You're inspiring me to embark on this Artic journey.
    What I like the most is the eternal and infinite silence of the Arctic.

    • @poeven
      @poeven 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Mr Ebola You're missing my point. Obviously most people are capable of not being dicks. That doesn't mean that you click with people easily though, or that you can easily strike up a conversation with a kid on a bike or someone else you just met. It doesn't mean that people feel comfortable around you and it doesn't mean that you easily understand and read a foreign culture so you can act respectfully in it... These are the kind of qualities I was referring to and some of the things I admire about Ben. :)

    All right, some quebecois here. Didnt know Chris Hadfield talked that well in french...still obvious though...
    Btw, this Arctic vlog is perfect. I've never watch something that fun and interesting on TH-cam. Your vlogs are great ways to show the world to people by telling stories, built by the people in your vlogs and yourself, Ben. Keep up the good work!

  • @bel250
    @bel250 7 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Best of Ben's vlog ever...almost made me cry. Ben, who coordinated this whole trip with Mr. Hatfield? Canadian or Russian tourism board? and how much does it cost to join an Arctic adventure such as this? I dream of seeing the Arctic much like what you're doing right now...

      You should definitely watch Tom Scott's arctic videos too! They're not at all like Ben's he but they're incredibly interesting if you want to learn more about glaciers and stuff

    I live in Florida , USA . I never new that Canada had Astronauts . Chris Hatfield is an amazing man . I enjoyed listening to him give the talk to children in the Island school and also enjoyed listening to him entertain in the ships bar . Nice to see his son on the Arctic Cruise with him .

    Ben, one of the most life-changing and inspiring things I ever watched was Long Way Round (the Ewan McGregor/Charley Boorman motorbike journey from London to NYC). Your Arctic vlogs are a close second :)

    I already miss watching and listening to funny, inspiring and talented Danny Michel and amazing, inspiring and wise man Com. Hadfield... Keep coming back to the vlogs they're in, and i think i will for a long time. I'm so not done with the arctic vlogs, even though they're done with me... ;)

    it's been so wonderful seeing Commander Hadfield on these vlogs. I've been such a fan of his since I saw his Space Oddity video from space & learned just how much work he had to put into it to make it happen. a true talent & inspiration. happy you've had the chance to meet him & his son and share your experiences with us. thanks for that!

  • @eblalgen

    Incredible stuff Ben honestly, being Canadian this really touched me seeing those kids, the community as well as listening to Chris hadfields knowledge is such an inspiration to me, I say this a lot but without a doubt my favourite vlog of all time since I began watching 2 years ago. You are an incredible Human Ben, keep going my friend!!

    Wow, I've not watched much of your stuff (yet) but you're clearly a very nice fella - and what a lucky one at that...Chris Hadfield is a hero of mine (in fact many of the astronauts are) and to get the chance to meet and spend time with him, apparently initially not realising quite who you were dealing with, is just terrific...loved the video. I'm sure you will anyway but well worth reading Chris' book - the guide to life on Earth - brilliant read. Thanks for posting, keep 'em coming and sharing that amazing trip with us. All the best....and send my regards to Chris :0)

    Everyone we encounter in life has the potential to mirror (reflect) aspects of ourselves which allows us to see and understand ourselves. Have as many adventures and meet as many persons as possible during your lifespan. Don't worry about your emotions. Share them. We're emotional beings.That's how you connect to us, through your emotions. You're Arctic vlogs are deeply touching many of us. Vlog and Instagram as much as you can. Thank you Ben. 👊👍😎👀
