Can you tell me where you get your t-shirts printed? - The answer is in one of my vlogs...
What steady cam do you use? - A really cheap one from ebay.
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+

P.s. I love my subscribers :) xx
This 47 year old married with children mommy just loved this vlog. What fun to follow along with you and see a place I will probably never see. Your girl is lovely and has such a kind demeanor. Safe travels.
Thank you that's so sweet :) Nicole says hey x
***** Yeah, and you're so appreciative of her without being sexist or chauvinistic.
Oh my god, that long exposure with Pumba and Nicole was AMAZING!! The sky was absolutely gorgeous!
Oh I LOVE that you´re bringing out the oldies again!
That tune combined with the South African vibe has something so comforting. Just chillin like Bob Dylan..
Is it just a coincidence that this video was good up to the midpoint 6:10, then you showed us the numbers 22,728,438 views & 250,183 subscribers on your iPhone, & after that the 2nd half was just AMAZING? Accidental or intentional, it was the perfect place to insert the news, cuz that's when you turned off the highways & away from the towns into the wilder country. I think both your conscious editing & your intuition have been honed to a razor's edge. There's nothing more fun to watch than serious talent well exercised. That night sky exposure & the shots of Pumba driving across the screen & away gave this a professional feel. We could almost forget you don't have a camera crew.
In some shots of pumba, i imagine ben telling Nicole, "Hey this looks like a good shot. Okay, when i shout for you, start driving. But remember to stop after that and not leave me here in the wild." hahaha
Haha shhhhh that's not how it happens it's a full scale production with other camera operators! :P
This vlog made me want to visit South Africa more than any vlog before.
Just beautiful, beautiful nature everywhere you look. Amazing.
Thank you Ben!
South Africa seems to be an amazing country! I cannot wait until I'm finished with school and can go explore what our world has to offer. You're one of my biggest inspirations in life, not only when it comes to travelling, but also photography-wise. Thank you so much for sharing your passion with us so that some of us know what is out there to see.
I love the 'throwback' to the classic Element 42 music from your older vee-logs. It's what hooked me onto your super chilled adventure lifestyle in the first place. :D
honestly can't stop smiling haha x
I nearly teared up just at how BEAUTIFUL that country is. I had no idea.
One thing I have come to recognise in Ben after getting the car; he doesn't put Nic down for driving it. Many men would be like "no go'rn I'll drive it out of here" and Ben stands to the side like "that's my girl". I like that.
My jaw dropped at that photo! Magnificent! Reminds me so much of Iceland, incredible!
i cant get over how beautiful the mountains are! these vlogs are so relaxing to watch after a stressful day
The shot with pumba going over the stream/brook/river looked a little like postman pat! Ha ha
Get yourself some Goal Zero solar products. Perfect for road travel power. Cheers
Bens life is too good!!!
the second best part of going on holiday is coming back home to watch a marathon of Ben Brown! Pumba looking daym fine!!!congrats on the quarter mill bro!!!!
oh my word
i'm inlove with that vlog
watched it twice
the scenery is just incredible
wish i was there
I never realized how Mountainous Africa was, then you drive a few hours to the coast and have amazing surf. Sort of reminds me of NZ. Loving the road trip vlogs.
The Province they are currently in, Kwa Zulu Natal, is amazing. These great hills and epic mountains are a few short hours from amazing beaches and world class diving spots as well, with superb game reserves in between! A must see if you visit, South Africa, hope Ben spends more time in KZN.
Bradley Andrews Agree boet!
Love the new "Drive past" sequences in the vlog, makes it look so professional! Keep that going please, love it #Brownie4Life
South Africa is bloody beautiful !!!
first just wanna say I LOVE the shots of Pumba just driving off like im watching a movie and you have a camera crew! its soooo beautiful where you stopped to camp!! also you should have inserted the song "Baby come back" lol when she was driving away from you ahah cuz thats the song that popped into my head.. am i the only one? lol
You may be the only one, but it's a brilliant idea. It would have been so funny!
Well done for 250,000 subscribers! Your vlogs are always amazing and I always look forward to them! X
Loving Nicole! She's for the keeps! Enjoy camping guys!
i laughed soo hard when you said "goodnight Nicole" and she leaned in to kiss you but you just turned away again...
Omg I didn't realise I did that! Hahaha, don't worry I made up for it after the camera was turned off ;)
At-a-boy Ben!
***** Haha, you really are in boyfriend mode in these comments. And I will now shut up about it.
Damn my homie Ben getting it in with Nicole!!!
***** Get in there cuz
I've been watching your Vlogs for less than two weeks now, and i already enjoy them a lot, keep up the adventure!
Ah the brilliant old road trip days, so good reminiscing with these vlogs!
You are just motivating myself to get my A-Levels done and after I made it, I am going to travel the whole world!
PS: You should defenitely come to Germany. Waiting for you with some good coffee over here, Ben!
same here!
i'll welcome you if you ever have paths through Sweden :)
that picture of nicole and pumba under the stars took my breath away, truly amazing! and congrats on hitting 250k! i'm not gonna lie, i feel like you've been robbed, you deserve way more than 250k!
Man, South Africa looks amazing. Going to have a visit when I'm back from my round the world trip. Love the tent.
Spin the eggs to know which are cooked or not cooked. cooked will spin freely, uncooked will be harder to spin because the yoke moves about inside... like tossing a half full water bottle vs a full water bottle.
Wow, these vlogs keep getting better and better. Road tripping and living out of a Defender? Dreamy.
Another beautiful blog Ben you should make some sort of editing tutorial when you get the time!
Ben! Pumba is looking rad with that awning and tent set up!!! So jealous.
*****, you're travelling so much, why you don't visit Germany once? :D
_You got a big fanbase over here. :)_
Or the netherlands!:P
Yeah come to germany KBDESIGNZ und ich dachte ich wäre der einzige hier :D
Ans Schuitema Kunt u een rondleiding te maken. #googletranslate
jxstlukas Ich auch :D
jxstlukas Nee, du bist nicht alleine! Und ja, er soll mal nach Deutschland kommen!
the picture of the stars at night is AMAAAZING!!!
Congrats on 250k Ben! I remember when there were a few less zeros in that number haha much love!
I actually enjoy reading through your comment section (Just as much as i love your vlog content) Theyre hilarious and your replies are brilliant! Dont ever change Bennyboiiiiiiiiiii x
oh ya, mountain sound in the mountains... perfect
Really beautiful scenery. Looks like you're having fun. Unfortunate that that adapter didn't work.
Nice to see you getting your old - time laps style back :D
Lapse*
Ben you would really Love the Mara in Kenya that's a proper adventure in the wild just the wild life
These videos of you driving through South Africa are amazing They remind me of every time my boyfriend and I drive through Europe to go to Italy and back to the Netherlands. Especially when you were listening to Of Monsters and Men, whose album we often listen to while driving. Also Ben Howard and Lights and Motions. Enjoy your road trip!
Hey Ben, I just love your vlogs! This one especially reminded me of driving across Argentina at the beginning of this year and camping at the most amazing spots in the middle of nowhere.
That long exposure shot is stunning! Loving your adventures in Pumba! :)
This makes me miss South Africa so, so much. Can't wait to go back after uni!!!
Yes bonobo at 6:44. The album cover of blacksands is amazing, you should travel there!
Wow, how beautiful is that scenery?!? Really enjoying these vlogs and can't wait for the rest of your adventures! I'm completely living vicariously through them lol! Enjoy ♡♡
when ben said he hit 250,000 subscribers, i was on my chair thinking, proud to be a brownie :)
Cried the whole vlog, that place is just perfect
Ben, yes it would be nice to get a vlog daily, but don't fret. Being in the middle of nowhere allows for great content and that's what we want. :-) Those star shots were amazing and so are all the other nature scenes!
hey Ben how bout a pumba tour?? I wanna see what you've done to her and what your taking on the road with you 😉
Congrats on 250,000 Ben, fully deserved!
The scenery is the vlog was so nice I had to comment twice! Johannesburg is so beautiful. Because of you its now on my top 5 places to travel to!
i love these road trip vlogs so much
Another epic vlog, Ben! Loving the adventure vlogs despite lack of power lol. Also I like the new shots where you filmed the Landy whilst it was driving 👌.

THIS is the kind of road trip I want to have one day! Such an awesome vlog Ben & Nicole, and that shot you took of the night was amazing! :)
When you jumped on the back of Pumba I had flashbacks to when Max jumped on the back of that bus in India and almost got driven away with hahaha!
Such an amazing shot with the stars!

Love the video Ben! Really want to get a Land Rover now... or a classic Austin Mini and customise it. Is it at all possible your time-lapse photo can be downloaded, it's amazing and would love it for a desktop wallpaper for my Macbook Pro. Thanks Dan.

Hey Ben, what were the settings on your camera you used to take the long exposure of the starts? It's absolutely beautiful!
your vlogs are so good, they make me happy! :)
***** If you've never heard of Goal Zero, you should check them out. Awesome solar panels and battery packs for all your devices.
Thanks I'll check them out!
***** Goal Zero makes great solar charging devices. Powertraveller also makes great devices too. I use them when I go backpacking, however they make large panels that would charge your laptop, camera's, phone, etc...
Ben I love your Land rover defender!
Loved the vlogs today! Great job guys
Ben, you have the best car I've ever seen. Like that!!! I really wanna have a journey like that
