Brian used to be a regular at my work. One day i mustered up the courage to tell him what an amazing skater and person he is. He drew me some cool artwork, signed it, and gave it to me on his way out. Legend.
I actually love this guy; when i was a kid and i watched welcome to hell seeing him go Ham to Pink Floyd and now hearing him speak his heart & mind even more
Im 19 months sober in part because of this guy. The hard work is just now happening in concerns with reconciling with the past. Sobriety is the key to get everything I want in my life. I wish it wasn't, but at least I had the courage to figure it out and stay sober.
@@randomshit65 Thanks! Yes, its definitely been. Especially during tough points of stresses and not running to the bottle or partying to get away from it.. just got to face life head on.
Crazy to hear him talk about Ed. Obviously he’s a great guy and not a surprise, but don’t hear as much from other pro’s the real grown up impact they had cause of him
Much respect Brain !one of the realest mofos ever ! We love ya man. I’m a 90,NYC Skater and I’m sorry to be part of the crowd that was making you feel like hiding. One love man. Love ya bro.
Northeast US has a very crazy relationship with alcohol. What’s considered normal drinking habits there is full blown alcoholism in the rest of the country.
I remember the time he's talking about a friend of mine was at a bar in Greenpoint and said BA was there chilling with their mutual homies but not at all drinking that day or anymore. Great to see he's doing so well! This is inspiring.
Awesome 🔥 props to everyone going sober. To echo his comments, alcohol is dangerous to withdraw from especially if you are deep into it, its in fact the most dangerous substance to come off (alongside benzos) - opiates are hard and extremely uncomfortable to come off but it won’t kill you. There is a risk of death and seizures if you come off too fast, its called delerium tremens - so do be careful and its always good to seek support. But at the same time if you do know whag you are doing and have someone around and take it slowly i’ve seen people stop like this, but would always advise getting help.
Huge Legend. He's very influential to my life. 😂 I've skated with him too. The ramp over the water. I was on my Blades actually. 😂 I was in one of his former or current friends Health class. Her name was Ms Wilson. She played his Welcome to Hell section when it was fresh on tape in class. 😂 My friends were skaters, Marcus, Chris, Rhett, Katie. Fitch Middle. I have always been into sneakers, when I heard he was with Nike after MANY of his sneaker models released, I could only manage to grab a pair of Project B.A. And I had Dinosaur Jr's. Again I would kinda luck into the ones I found or would come across as opposed to looking for specific models. I keep skating because it blows my mind to this day the era I am privileged to be a part of. Like the first full skate video I saw was welcome to hell, like hell yeah Toy Machine knuckles are etched into my brain. I'm glad he's still doing well.
you cannot die from an opiod withdrawal ... that's always the benzodiazepines, tranquillizers etc that trigger the strokes. i know what i am talking about ... i am on and off opiods since 15 years.
Gay or not! You can’t take this dudes skill away and what an impact he has made in skateboarding and for skateboarding! #barules #briananderson #skateordie
Looking back he always seemed super gay he really didn't hide it that well his skating is what made him seem not gay but BA always was sus shout out to the Queen.

Brian is also one of the few pro skaters who worked a real job before pro, most have never worked a day in their lives
respect! 5/23, epson salt baths are magic to the highly sensitive person
Dam what a great story.
Legend
I thanked my bones. And they were like, it’s all good brah
B.A. Is the coolest
BA!

I remember on the anti hero x girl trip (beauty and the beast) he threw up and it was just all blood, that is scary for sure
I have Welcome to Hell memorized :)

i know what i am talking about ... i am on and off opiods since 15 years.
True, sure can feel like it tho
Wrong. Actually there’s been instances of people dying from opiate withdrawals because their body couldn’t handle the shock.
@@ButchLotus1 its possible but only usually with comorbitities and it isnt shock that kills you its a heart attack from shitting and puking so much
Came here for this. Benzodiazepines are closest to alcohol in terms of dangers when getting off of them. More so than opiates.
Thought he was taller than 6 ft 4
