Scattering Dan's Ashes - with thanks to RNLI, Weston-Super-Mare

- A link to help raise funds for a new RNLI lifeboat station in Weston-Super-Mare is below:
www.justgiving...
The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea.
It costs £447,000 a day, that’s £163.5 Million in 2018, to operate the charities lifesaving service. As a charity we are reliant on voluntary donations to power our lifesaving work which we provide through an army of volunteers.
On Saturday 8th June 2019, the ashes of Dan Thomas were scattered in Weston Bay by the volunteers of RNLI Weston-super-Mare, following his battle with cancer in September 2018.
Dan, from Dudley, West Midlands, was known for vlogging under the username ‘PeeWeeToms’ where his channel has more than 150,000 subscribers.
He began the account to provide "inspiration, motivation or some get up".
His mission was also to encourage people to go to the doctor if they were concerned about their health to nip serious illness in the bud.
He died of a rare terminal cancer called sarcomatoid carcinoma after first being diagnosed in July 2015 and had numerous surgeries and therapies. It was his own condition that he reported on in his clips.
His loyal followers would be told “don’t give up, don’t give in”.
One of Dan's favourite places to visit was Weston-super-Mare, especially around the Birnbeck Island and pier area.
In memory of Dan, his family asked for a video recording to be made of the ashes scattering ceremony by the Weston RNLI crew, to share with his followers on his page. They also asked for donations to the Weston volunteers who are in desperate need of vital life-saving equipment and a new lifeboat station. This is because the old lifeboat station on Birnbeck Island became inaccessible due to the old pier being unsafe to walk on.
The RNLI volunteers have operated out of shipping containers on the seafront since 2014.
Please donate to our fund-raising efforts in support of the Weston RNLI volunteers in memory of Dan.
Thank-you from the family of Dan and the all the volunteers at RNLI Weston-super-Mare

Found one of Dan's videos completely by accident. I was going to send him a message of support, but found out that he had passed. RIP Dan, rest in eternal peace.
Let us hope it is not eternal..there is something in the Bible about the death raising
Which verse?
@@bratthegreat157Can be found in many places. The resurrection is all over the Bible.
Exact verse is 1 Thessalonians 4:16.
But John 11:25-26 can explain some things too
Thank you so much. 😊
RIP. Was a wonderful person.

@@khlchs2231 no we will not react to your petulant attempt to seek attention. This is in memory of a humble and brave man that faced death head on and left this Earth with dignity .
@@joey22306 lol ، you already did.
He passed too soon, still can’t believe that he’s gone.
We still have his videos.
He was a rare and beautiful soul
Mr CANDY : the Promised Land 🙏💕
Yea ;( nice sapphire avatar btw
Sksksis, wtf is your problem?
May Dans ashes travel the world the way his smile did!! He is missed by many and thought of often!!🙏🙏💕💕💕
Jan 2020 missed always Dan xx
I saw dan at the Osaka Beach. And I also see dan when I’m back to San Francisco beach.
"the way his smile did" 😭😭 So beautifully put! 💕 RIP
@@lynjones9339 hi
Even sadder knowing that they just disintegrate in water 😿🇬🇧
It's such a strange idea to see those ashes and to think that's all that's left of an entire person... What makes it even scarier is that anyone of us could be such a pile of ashes a year, month or week from now. I never really think about it until I come across videos like this one.
It should be something you contemplate often. Prepare for the 4 last things.
@@ReapingTheHarvest 4 last things?
@@Dr.BenjiBuddy Death, Judgement, heaven and hell.
@@ReapingTheHarvest wouldn't that be 3 last things? You cant go to both heaven and hell
Tears in my eyes. R i p
This is to appropriate, Dan was a lifeboat to so many others. ay he rest in Peace and rise in Glory.
Caliban M beautiful thought
KneeGrows69 wtf man
Sir Alex Ferguson I reported his nasty hateful comments!!
@@patrooney2283 I will too x
@KneeGrows69 u sad little loner, bet u must really hate urself wen u look in the mirror, all this is just 2 play up to ppl but in reality it just a sad lonely little Billy no mates, and u being racist doesn't bother me in the slightest luckily 4 Me I'm very blessed in life
Now I'm crying again, I never knew that you can miss someone you never meet in real life. But I really do. RIP Dan
You never knew him here but there, we all know each other.
The world has lost a Legend but his legacy lives on due to his Amazing Family n Friends He will be smiling down on all of you and his fellow friends UA-cam.....
@darkfacer Definatley
Nearly a year still.thought of loved and missed Dan xxx
My mother was cremated as well. It's absolutely heart breaking knowing such beautiful human beings are eventually just reduced to ash and memories. At least has also been somewhat immortalized by the internet.
fast-forward 500 years...two blinks
My paternal grandparents, my youngest paternal uncle, my stepfather, and the love of my life all were cremated. Feel raw about it still
I hate cremation
@@horuszorus495 it's not for me either . Burial at sea even worse
They are not reduced to ashes and memories, it’s just their vessel (the body ) that is. Their spirit lives on and is happier and free. You will meet them again! ❤
RIP Dan
May you rest in heaven
Amen
🙏🏾
So sad
From the universe, back to the universe. RIP, Dan. I was thinking of my own mortality recently and remembered about this video. None of us will live forever, but to depart at such a young age breaks my heart. May the family be given strength and joy in memory of Dan.
Hi Becca, mum, dad, bros and everyone & now he can travel everywhere
♥
@the Hero , darkfacer's comment reflects what SHE believes. There was absolutely no reason for you to post what you did, other than your just a jerk.
I am also an atheist and I have the utmost respect for everyone else’s beliefs and points of view. I rather suspect Dan did too. Why not keep your rather crass and unkind comments for a different time and place? I think we should all thin, is it true? Is it helpful? Is it kind? Before we post, particularly on videos such as these. Sometimes it is more important to be kind than right. This comment is not aimed at Emma none of yours but rather the person who pointed out that at one point Dan was an atheist. I am afraid I am not great with technology and do not know how to reply directly to a comment! In fact I am rather chuffed I managed to comment at all!
@the Hero he was a human being. Thats what mostly counts, nothing more, nothing less.
Hope Dan has travelled to warmer water xxxx made me live more
Thank you for sharing this with us. It's touching.
Rest in peace buddy. See you on the other side.
@Czesiek P. And you know this how?
That's great news
@Frank Lambert xDDDDDD,
tilted?
He was so brave and dignified through out his battle. He was a fine young man from a good decent family. Rest easy Dan you are truly loved and missed ❤️
💔💔💔 I'm lucky to have seen his videos in real time. See his fight, witness his radiating energy. I was lucky enough to show appreciation, and to tell him we loved him before he left us. Thank you Jesus for that opportunity.
my god ! what kind of hearthless person can put dislike on this video! jesus...
I can imagine some people being wired differently than others and disliking it because it's sad
I don't think they hit dislike meaning that they don't like Dan. Maybe they didn't like that Dan passed away. Maybe they did not like the way the ashes were scattered and would have liked a more family-centered ceremony. We don't know why they hit dislike but we must not assume it was with a bad intention.
There's a lot of trollers yeah on my channel I teach people how to hear the voice of God and how to study his word to hear from him because I met him meaning Jesus I met Jesus face to face 16 years ago when I committed suicide but he's the reason I'm here so all you can do is go on there and tell somebody how to read the Bible and they'll thumbs down it just a bunch of evil people
@@WAJD1 lol bro, you are just high , u didn't meet anyone
Idiots. Maybe, just maybe they don't like the fact that he died.
This is always a difficult ceremony to watch. Heaven knows what it is like for Dan’s family and close friends. Hopefully the family can derive some comfort knowing that their Dan will never be forgot, and that he had such a profound and absolute good impact on the lives of so many. 28th September is almost here again. 5 years now. Rest in Peace Mr Thomas 🧡
Thank you for allowing us to watch this ...it has nearly been a year since Dan passed I've thought about him a few times over the last few months and about the family wondering how they were all coming to terms with not having this wonderful young man around ....he can never be forgotten because he was such an inspiration to so many people he suffered greatly but now he is at peace polishing his wings as I speak and being very proud of them because he truly earned then
God bless you Dan ...
The whole video was hitting me hard enough until I saw Dan's smiling face, then I lost it. God Bless your soul, Dan. Prayers and thoughts to his lovely wife, mum and dad and brothers. X
I was on UA-cam & I just thought of this wonderful man who touched my life some 4-5 years ago. I watched his story from beginning to end. A truly wonderful man who will live on in the many hearts he touched. He lives on in mine always!❤😇💖
I just found Dan. I have watched some of his journey, and it gives me great peace knowing he is in a better place. Sometimes it is hard to understand why God gives some of us battles we can't overcome, but if I've learned one thing it is we come to understand in due time. I think we all know why Dan was chosen. For one, he had the strength to face the battle head on. Two, he changed a lot of lives in the process and for the better. He now has his wings in the Kingdom of Heaven, for we all know he was an angel here on Earth and will continue that roll for our Creator.
I just came across this channel. He was a brave and terrific bloke. He will continue to inspire the world. My deepest sympathies to his family. In his short life he continues to inspire the world with this channel. I am crying for him family even though it has been awhile. I need to watch his other videos. Incredibly brave, I want to be like him when my time comes. This is so hard. Thank you Dan and family to selflessly sharing of yourselves. I will always remember his courage. Dear Lord, have him sit by you side and rap your arms around him.
So sad. Still miss him. Such a fighter! 😢
I'm sure there were weak or angst moments not filmed in fact he said so, but Dan's positive determination whilst deteriorating brings me joy and sadness at the same time.
Missed sep 2020 xxx peace
I remember watching your channel a few years back, and recall that you experienced a tremendous loss as well. It might be a year too late, but I just wanted to say I hope you're doing okay and pulling through. God bless 🙏🏾🕊
@@AdvocateOfJamaica thank you.
Powerful scriptures. May Lord Jesus Christ blesses Dan's family and Becca x
RIP dan, what a beautiful soul.
I take medication for severe anxiety, panic disorder and agoraphobia, which makes it near impossible for me to produce tears. I get choked up, but rarely tears. On the day of Dan's passing, however, my eyes welled up for some reason, and I'd only known him six months. What a genuine and charismatic human being. I wish his family all the best. ✌️
The only thing I can't relate on is the agoraphobia and I'm also sociopathic so it's hard to feel things but I felt something from this.
@@DrDark-im9kv No such thing as an agoraphobic sociopath.
You don't know what sociopathy is.
They don't have fears.
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 since when no fear is a sociopath trait?
@@Nadae27 OK, it's a psychopath trait. But to a great degree for sociopaths, as well.
Thank you to the Thomas family for continuing to inform us on Dan. He left a permanent impression on more people in a year than most will in a lifetime.
Still missing Dan🌷love from the Philippines...Godbless all!
Rip dan your a insperation to us all see you on the other side buddy
What a beautiful act of remembrance for an amazing young man ❤
RIP Dan. May you rest in heaven 🙏🏻
Rest In Peace Dan. You will never be forgotten ❤️
RIP Dan. As tough as they came. ❤️
Having been gone almost a year and still having 175,000 subs is a testiment to how many people Dan reached.😘
Please consider donating! Just imagine if we could raise enough that they could actually build their new station! This could be something we could give back to Dan. Dan's station at his favorite place. Which helps saving lifes.
That would be amazing!
If we all just give a little it would be possible! Just think about it...
Wishing you all much love..... Dan is often on my mind.... he touched so many lives with positivity.... you must all be so proud ❤️
rest in peace you kind human being, i wish i could have had the privilege of meeting you, you affected so many people in such a positive way. your videos meant so much to me, much love buddy :( i wont forget you.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Praying for that peace in your family that can come from above. From the Lord Jesus. I lost my dear brother last year to this terrible disease as well. God bless you all
Time goes so fast, Dan always fought for everyday. His message was don't waste precious time, cuz all we are is dust in the wind. A yr almost since we lost him. I'll never forget him or his message. He reminds me so much of Freddy Mercury, in looks and conviction. RIP Dan. Ur body is gone, but ur soul is who u are, and I hope u are wherever there is no pain, all the laughs u can handle. Miss u my friend. Daria from N . Carolina 💙❤💜
We thank those who spread the ashes of a loved one! This was heart felt. Love to his family. He's in a better place now. His paradise. ❤❤
Rest easy, Dan. We all love and miss you dearly.
Seeing his mom with a smile on her face breaks my heart but makes it happy as well. She raised a damn good man, was there for him (his other family members as well) she’s what the definition of a mother is.
Awww... a journey that really has come to an end now. Thank you for sharing. We may of never knew him in person but we certainly felt like we were apart of his life... be free Dan. And we will catch you on the flipside again - i asure you...
- we live in wiltshire but we know this pier well and we will forever equate this place with him - from a stranger in your lives....Goodbye - peace love empathy...
I have proof that something exists that we can not see or are aware of easily...this also gives hope that we live on - for whatever i have communicated with.....
Yes, his journey here in this physical realm, has ended. Now he begins a greater one. I also have lots of evidence that there's so much more beyond this; I understand.
Loved him what a legend, he inspires me still x RIP Dan❤
RIP Brother. Hope your having a laugh up there.
That's great news
@Frank Lambert 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Had to have a good cry after watching this...remembering all that he was and all the lessons he taught us. We all wanted him to live forever 😭😭 There will never be another just like him 😭
DAN: Man, life & legend - R.I.P.
A family’s love forever. Peace to ALL.
What a beautiful ceremony, I'm tearing up remembering Dan. He was such a good man
Dan, may you finally rest in Peace. You will never be forgotten. I'm having a rough time myself and I still continue to watch your inspirational videos in search for comfort. We love you Dan! Thank you for sharing your precious life with us. 💖💖

Dans favourite spot he showed us. Perfect - Dan is an AMAZING soul. I’ve watched every video over the past few days. I’ve cried for him for the family for the struggles and for his freedom from pain. His legacy in filming his whole journey is so powerful he is still touching lives -
I’m glad I got to know Dan. He lives on in the hearts of many. 💚
May he rest now in eternal peace 🙏😇
Thank you all for sharing the unimaginable. He's a treasure of kindness. I hope in the future we get to see how you are all doing. If not, thank you for everything you have done and I hope you as well find your peace as you carry through. Sending love.
Swim with the dolphins 🐬 dan and fly high on the waves 🌊 rip dan 🙏🏻

Rest in peace Dan and I hope your family is happy to be able to say one last good bye.
RIP Dan. Your legacy will live on. Your family, friends and followers will continue your work .You will never be forgotten. Begin your next journey onward and see you again in another space and time. Su. Thankyou to Dan and RNLI for showing this moving footage of scattering Dan's ashes.
You are an inspiration Dan. Ta Ta and Goodbye for only a short time. We will see you again.
My grandfather died yesterday night from Liver Cancer, and that gave me the motivation to come back to this channel and see if there was anything new from his family. I'm really glad to see they are still doing well and keeping Dan's memory alive... I miss both Dan and my Grandfather terribly, and these videos give me the strength to keep going
so sorryy bless his soul. souls never die though only the body watch for signs. he may come to you in dreams to spend time with you.
That's a beautiful ceremony, Dan is missed so much. Was just watching some replays yesterday. I hope Becca is doing ok and Dan's parents. Thanks for sharing!
You can check on them on Instagram. It seems they are all doing as well as can be expected.
Thank-you so much for letting me know! I appreciate it! @@debradonley3825

Nearly a year since he's gone. Wish I could have met him and thanked him for making my life more meaningful.
I hope his family know how much good he's brought out in a lot of people including myself. RIP

Dan will always be an inspiration to us all. What a loving, caring soul.
Still can’t believe this poor guy is gone. Screw cancer :,(
I drove to North Devon last week and passed the sign for Weston-Super-Mare, which immediately made me remember Dan.
RIP sweet soul and sending love to Dan’s wife , mum and dad and brothers x
This video made me sad and peaceful at the same time.
You are gone, but not forgotten.
Rest in peace Dan.
God Rest Your Soul Dan, another Angel from this Earthly World taken home to Heaven to early. Peace and love to all us good Human Being's in this Earthly life time. Until all of us good meet again in Heaven Amen xxx

Glad to know Dan is at rest. The circle is complete. All that is left is the love and the memories of an amazing, courageous and inspiring man. He is so loved and missed.
RIP Dan - I was happy to see another upload. Thank you so much Lyn and Becca for sharing this with us. Who else watches Dan's videos now and then. 😢

What a beautiful service for a true warrior ♥️ RIP Dan

How amazing it is that he decided to document his journey here on UA-cam! Hundreds of years from now, people will come to this channel and look at this vlogs, and that is really powerful!
Beautiful words, beautiful memorial, for a beautiful soul. May Dan’s name be a blessing for ever. To his family, we who were but strangers miss him still. Our hearts are with you.

May Dan's memory always be a blessing, and may the consignment of his ashes to the sea bring healing. Few people touch the world as he did.
Free loved Dan being place in the sea hello to martin lin matt ben becca and poppy xxxxxx big one to DAN X
I came across his videos today, which makes six years according to UA-cam since he got his diagnosis and I read that he died five months later it’s so sad my uncle died the same way same amount of time after he found out. I’m so sorry for the loss. He seemed like a really great guy he’s also very inspiring six years after the fact.❤
Almost a year! I still get weepy thinking about him. RIP Dan Thomas. 😪
RIP Dan, he was a great man and left this world way too soon. All my thoughts and prayers go to his friends and family ❤❤❤❤❤
This is so sad. I live so close to this location. I hope he had a amazing life. Rest in peace
Thank you Christ Jesus for making the way for us. Thank you for teaching us is Love as you Love. One Family soon to be reunited all together.
Beautiful 💔 R.I.P. Dan. You are deeply missed. I Love You ❤️ Love You Becca ❤️ Thank You For Sharing. I pray that time heals your broken heart. 💔
I love you Daniel, I still watch your video's, I miss your humor and great energy. The world is colder now that you're gone, but you're free, and happy, vibrant, full of life back with the Lord. I'll never forget you, neither will many, many folks. Thank you for the gift of YOU.

Its funny how certain memories come into your mind out of nowhere. I was just thinking about him the other day, now this popped up. Really miss his great outlook and wit.
Made me cry when seeing this tonight very moving especially the footage around the old pier oh bless you Dan always in our hearts
