    He died a week later after posting this video. It obviously meant he was supposed to tell the world his story :(
    RIP Ben.

    Ben, You were my niece's, Jennifer Johnson, inspiration for her flashcard video..... We lost her a week before Christmas 2012 from Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy. Like you, she was taken from us too soon. I know you have found each other where ever there is after here...Keep her safe until we see her again.

    I can see why Ben picked this background song as his song. If you didnt know the background songs name is Mad World by Gary Jules and theres a line in the song that says "The dreams in which in dying are the best i ever had" and thats true for Ben because all he wanted was to be at peace and when he passed out he was truly at peace and now he is forever at peace :) and im happy for him because everybody deserves to have peace.

    I want to thank you, Ben. You have helped me truly realize how big of a blessing our lives are, and that we must cherish every moment of it. You have certainly shared your story with the world, and I'm sure you've touched every single person who has watched this video. Rest in Peace, you are an amazing inspiration!

    Ben, you've touched my heart forever. I feel so sad but I know I shouldn't be because you are in a happier place now. You are a beautiful soul and your cheerfulness and strength is a true inspiration, you are a hero. I will appreciate life and be a better person in your honor. Anyone who knew you is blessed to have had you in your life. Because of your video, I have renewed faith that there is an afterlife and God. Keep smiling in heaven, we love you Ben =)

    Man, I came across these videos almost a year ago, and when I first saw these heart-wrenching things, they made me bawl for hours. I put them in a playlist and I bust rediscovered them. Now when I watch them, I think of the happy state he is in right now. And that is what we all should do. Don't think about the suffering he had on earth, but rather the awesome place and life he is living right now.

    I've watched this atleast 5 times and it still gets me everytime. He's so sweet and such an inspiration. I don't know why, but it hurts to even get on Youtbue with out being sad and thinking about Ben. I feel so close to him, in a way I can't even describe. It's terrible to even think Ben isn't here, after watching all his videos, watching him be so lively. Rest in Peace, Ben. May God hold you forever, and keep you safe. :) (I'm honestly kind of REALLLLLYYY excited to meet Ben in heaven one day)

Rest in Peace Ben. Everyone on TH-cam wishes you aren't dead. Everyone on the world wishes you aren't dead. If you are watching me type this right now, I want you to know, it's going to be ok

I know that you are at peace Ben and I hope to see you on the other side when my day comes.

Some of us have no idea how much we take for granted, and how many people say they wish to die when there is people fighting to live. So many new realizations, I just want to thank him for all the messages he's showed me by sharing his story. Thank you and I hope you're still smiling Ben -3

    Through out the whole video, I had tears streaming down my face. It's not everyday you see someone as strong and worthy as you. Keeping a smile on your face after everything you've been through... It's incredible. I'm not exactly holy, but you make me believe that there's something waiting for me on the other side.
    You are obviously too good to stay on earth and swept away to a better place.
    I love you, I admire you, I pray for you.
    Sleep tight Ben, and keep that smile shining bright in the d
