For jet lag: Caffeine, alcohol, Valium, all-nighter-not good. Your 1st-day bicycle ride was brilliant, but you blew it by staying up until 6 AM. You need to adopt the *normal sleep, exercise & eating pattern* of your time zone. If you're not sleepy at 10 or 11PM, go to bed anyway & stay there for at least 8 hours sleeping or resting in the dark with eyes closed. (You'll nod off more than you think you have.) Only drug advisable is 6 mg of melatonin. Your body produces melatonin every night near bedtime. As drugs go, it's safe & effective. Requires a prescription in the UK (not in US).
***** You're welcome. As I said elsewhere, if you haven't used melatonin before, you could try taking just 3 mg, but if that doesn't suffice, take another 3 mg. (6 mg is the usual dose.)
Wondershare ?

He wasn’t sleepy then, so trying to get 10 hours of sleep that first night would probably have been unproductive torture. Wondershare wrote: "Forget all that. 10 hours sleep MINIMUM.

Ben everywhere you go makes me add something to my bucket list Cape Town, Costa Rica and Canada !. Seeing it through your videos is one thing, but just being their in person I will be able to see all the beauty it has to offer.
Don't you just love the natural timings in life sometimes. At 3.22 Mr Chumley Warner the van driver pulls out and the song says "You didnt have to cut me off" :D
To get over jetlag, drink lots of coffee and don't sleep for 1.5 days and go to bed at 10PM the next day. Keep yourself occupied doing something fun so that you don't fall asleep. By the time you get to 9PM the next day, stop drinking coffee and when you crash and get really tired suddenly, you'll fall asleep. Make sure to set many alarm clocks for 10AM and make sure you don't stay in bed any longer or else you won't get over the jetlag. I have done this many times and it has worked for me everytime. Good Luck!!!
To the people that give Ben's videos a thumbs down, can I just ask what is there to dislike? I am not trying to be funny I am genuinely curious because Ben's content/editing is always top class, even compared to everyone else!
You literally live the life! So positive and inspiring. I want to travel and your vlogs makes me want to do it more. ANNNDDD I also love that you reply to most of your comments! Keep on keeping on x
Do loads of exercise and hopefully youll be so knackered youll just fall asleep. Or dont sleep for a hold day and then pass out at a reasonable time in the evening.
omd you are so funny when jet lagged!!! in yesterdays vlog you said something like, "no you mind the door" and in this "stupid fish." I laughed so hard, you're so awesome ben
***** OK, so please try shaving the rest of your face & let the mustache grow out. The length it was before you shaved it off was perfect. I think you look more sophisticated & interesting with a mustache. Of course, if you get tired of it or Nicole doesn't like it, then either of those is more important than what we brownies think. ㋡
***** I had a goldfish when I was a little kid. I'd take it out of its bowl and pet it. Needless to say, it didn't live long. I was sad. I didn't mean to kill it.
Bennnn it's plaster of Paris! It slowly dissolves in the water thus releasing the fish food that is inside it! Don't feed them any more! From a fish geek :) x
Hey Ben,when will you be able to share the locations you and Lewis are going to? I loved your Canada vlogs so much,so I'm looking forward to more adventure Veelogs!
Sucks about the jet lag Ben, get it sorted. You need to fight the tiredness until a normal bedtime and sleep a normal amount of hours and then keep repeating I'm off on an adventure (more like holiday) at the end of the week but it'll be awesome to catch up on the Veelog to see how you and Lewis are getting on when I get back.
omg did any one notice when ben was driving and the van cut him off the song in the back ground "but you didn't have to cut me off" hehehe I find that really amusing heheh love you ben
Awh, I'd love to go biking. It's pretty hard in Georgia though, there's no side walks near me or at least not completed side walks, and there's no bike lanes either. I wouldn't want to take the risk, drivers in Atlanta are insane! Hopefully I'll find some nice trails to bike on near me. ((:
Its so funny that when the guy in the truck is backing up right as Ben approaches, you hear Goyte in the background singing, "you didn't have to cut me off"
If I can afford it, I sail on Queen Mary 2 from New York. That will prevent jet lag altogether, especially going eastbound. There are some real deals with some crossings, especially for two people. When I've flown over to the UK, I get up at 2:00, stay up all day even if I'm lolling about, and sleep at 21:00. This way, I'm already sort of on UK time. If I do get to sleep on the plane, its with the help of a little Valium, which also comes in handy after landing to ease any slight lag despite my time adjustment efforts. I don't drink "cawfee," which is not what you wanted to hear. That's a real deal breaker for any sleep pattern.
I find the best way to fix a sleeping pattern is to stay up until the point of exhaustion, within normal sleeping times e.g. 11pm, then crash out- but force yourself to get up at a normal time the next day. Works a treat for getting out of night shift lags!
Is it just me that noticed that the song said "you didn't have to cut me off" when the van pulled out infront of ben around 3:25? That was good timing haha :)
Poor Ben! I know how much you hate the idea of "being lazy" and sleeping in until 2:30pm! Best bet for jet lag is to try go to bed and up at normal times. If you need to nap just do 20 min naps to make you refreshed but not groggy or make you wide awake at midnight. Very exciting about 7 swims! Will be a cool experience.
Do not sleep for an entire night, stay up all day the day afterwards, and sleep at 10pm, wake up at 7am, don't nap that day, then sleep at night. Good luck!
That song timing was amazing! "You didn't have to cut me off" When the van pulled out in front of you
I know, I noticed that as we,l
Ha! Yes
YES!
This was one of the first videos I watched from Ben! One year later and I'm still obsessed with the vlogs!

"going on a trip for ocean conservation" ... "stupid fish"
oh dear ben ahaha

theres nothing more relaxing than watching one of your vlogs after a long day of work. i just love it.
Don't you just love the natural timings in life sometimes. At 3.22 Mr Chumley Warner the van driver pulls out and the song says "You didnt have to cut me off" :D
love this casual vlogging and we got to see Nicole yaaaa xxxx
The music goes so well at 3:26 when the van pulls out on him hahah

Watching your Canada vlogs has really got me back into photography and now o can't wait for my trip in a couple of weeks!

'You didn't have to cuuuut me ooooff'
As the van cuts you off.
Cinematic perfection.
at 3:30 when the van cuts you up the song sings "you didn't have to cut me up" hahahah
he actually has the best videos !!! can watch them all day
*Get's cut off* "YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO CUUT ME OFF" Love it haha.
You literally live the life! So positive and inspiring. I want to travel and your vlogs makes me want to do it more.
ANNNDDD I also love that you reply to most of your comments!
Keep on keeping on x
That music timing was class hahah, "you didn't need to cut me off" when the car was pulling out hahahahahaaah
Do loads of exercise and hopefully youll be so knackered youll just fall asleep. Or dont sleep for a hold day and then pass out at a reasonable time in the evening.
good plans thank you
I love how Ben actually links to people in the description when he says he will. Also Ben, I think you could pull off the stache.
When that Van pulled out in front of you the Gotye song was at the "you didn't have to cut me off" part. Immaculate timing I'd say.
omd you are so funny when jet lagged!!! in yesterdays vlog you said something like, "no you mind the door" and in this "stupid fish." I laughed so hard, you're so awesome ben
The Freddy Mercury look tho.. Should've kept the mustache for some time!
really? Ok next time :)

Well somebody doesn't like fishes😂
I JUST DON'T SEE THE POINT IN THEM :P
***** theyre nice decoration lol
*****
Also I don´t see the point and i had a lot of them(2 of them died jumping out of the fish tank)
***** I had a goldfish when I was a little kid. I'd take it out of its bowl and pet it. Needless to say, it didn't live long. I was sad. I didn't mean to kill it.

I'm off on an adventure (more like holiday) at the end of the week but it'll be awesome to catch up on the Veelog to see how you and Lewis are getting on when I get back.

"What is this guy doing pulling out in front of me?" BUT YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO CUT ME OFF
Haha when the van pulled out the song said 'but you didn't have to cut me off'

Will you be checking out the online stream of the world champs this weekend?
Its so funny that when the guy in the truck is backing up right as Ben approaches, you hear Goyte in the background singing, "you didn't have to cut me off"
I think we might have the same iPhone and Apple Leather case? Splendid taste my Brown friend.
Swimming really helps with Jet leg!

Mr Brownie, you ever coming to Australia bro? You should definitely do some visual vibes down under!

Jet lag is always the death of me! Try adjusting your times back as soon as you can Ben :) hopefully that helps you recover!
Best flogger ever :)

Favorite youtuber EVER!
To get over jet lag or an all nighter I usually take a 1 hour nap twice in the day then wait until the next reasonable sleep time. Usually 11pm/12am.
I can't be the only one who noticed how well the music fitted with what happened at 3:25?
I love milky chance so much💗💗
You are awesome ben. I love your daily videos keep up the good work. your fan from Saudi Arabia. 😊😊
Do you have a playlist for all the songs you're listening to on the car?
Hi Ben! Love all your videos and the Canada Trip was Amasing! Keep up the good work :D you should travel to sweden sometimes :D
You should've kept that Freddy mustache look! It was sick
do an all nighter!
Cant wait to see ya vloggin in capetown
I like how the song says 'you didn't have to cut me off' at the time the van pulls out
Hey on Saturday some lady had Ebola at Gatwick Airport and people were in quarantine. I am happy you weren't on that flight
lol when the guy is backing out in front of him and the song goes "didn't have to cut me off" perfect timing
I'm german but I lived in england for one year it was awesome and your vlogs are the reason that I'm missing england so so much ;(
the freddy mercury look was the best!
Drink a lot of water! You have to drink like massive amounts but it really helps!
Is Ben moving? Apple display not on the desk and the desk looked pretty bare and boxes in the background... ?
I'm watching this at like 5 on the morning and I haven't been to sleep yet jet lag does really suck
Have you tried a 'myfi' for when you need internet on the go for uploading?
Is it just me that noticed that the song said "you didn't have to cut me off" when the van pulled out infront of ben around 3:25? That was good timing haha :)
Howzit Ben, are you going to get more stock of your merch before you come down to Cape Town? Would be rad if you can bring it with! :)
Stay hydrated.
When are there coming more shirts in your store? Really want one! :)
I like the wheels ben, love minis :) get one man !
Poor Ben! I know how much you hate the idea of "being lazy" and sleeping in until 2:30pm! Best bet for jet lag is to try go to bed and up at normal times. If you need to nap just do 20 min naps to make you refreshed but not groggy or make you wide awake at midnight.
Very exciting about 7 swims! Will be a cool experience.
Are you going to be doing any visual vibes from Canada??
Do not sleep for an entire night, stay up all day the day afterwards, and sleep at 10pm, wake up at 7am, don't nap that day, then sleep at night. Good luck!
Fish are basically furniture that die
it's not their fault they r boring pets
Lol when the van drives out the song says You didn't have to cut me off 3:27
I love jungle love milky chance seeing jungle in October
