I live on a small island named Curacao close to Venezuela, and with every video you make you inspire me more and more to expand my horizons and see new places and experience new cultures. I absolutely love your work and admire you so much.
Casey Neistat at the beginning this guy is true motivation. After I discovered him I am more motivated to keep making my youtube videos than ever before. Ben, love your vlogs as well :)
Before this year I never really watched vlogs too much because I didn't really have the attention span to just sit and watch a video that was longer than 5 minutes. (I still struggle a bit but instead of completely exiting the video, I tend to do something on the side- whether it's like painting or knitting haha). But I really like listening to you talk and seeing what you're up to. You have such a chill vibe and it's kind of relaxing to me (I don't know if that sounds weird/makes sense)! Just wanted to say that!
Hi Ben Good stuff as always! Just to say I really like it when you insert some of the photos taken during the vlogs. This doesn't happen very often sadly. I think it would be really cool for us to see what photos you produce during your adventures(not only a few on Insta). For example when you were in the helicopter saving the rhinos you showed us some of your shots(that was awesome)...So for instance for this vlog you could have shown us some of the closeups shot at parklife... Anyway just an Idea and keep the good stuff flowing. Cheers
I watched Casey's draw my life video earlier too. You and and Casey's time lapse have really got me into wanting to do photography so for my 21st i'm going to get myself a DSLR (Probably just a 700D or something for now) I'm glad you said its okay to 'copy' someone's style to start, because I'd love to get images similar to the both of you, then I can work on developing my own unique style. Love you Ben- x
On the upside we got to see Park Life 1 from backstage & other vantage points we wouldn't have, even if we'd been there. On the downside (sort of), I never heard much of any recognizable song from Jeremy or anyone else. I guess that wasn't the point. It was more about the scene. And yeah, we want to see Park Life return next year, for sure! The packed, indoor concert that was just Jeremy & his band felt a lot more like a concert & a happening thing! You really captured the vibe on that one. That was amazing! Park Life 1 was more laid back. So I guess I'm a fan who's now spoiled rotten. If a concert video is good, I complain that it wasn't as amazing as a previous one. Looking forward now to Park Life 2 in Johannesburg. Thanks!
Hey Ben, can you challenge yourself a little more. I feel like these music festivals are getting a bit redundant. Its like you are turning into a videographer rather than a film maker. Its important to look for the unique and interesting stories of where you live. You can do this in your daily vlog and actually tell different stories and maybe set aside different days for doing different things. I think this redundancy is bc you have the same circle of friends who are all alike and carbon copies of each other. Maybe get some non film friends. I feel like they would expand your horizon and bring some something new fresh and interesting to your content. Aside from your dialy vlogging you haven't produced or put out a film in a long time. Maybe a film a month or 2 films in a month. This will also make a you a better story teller and help you to grow. I really think if you interact with other Cape Town'ers who are not like you (into surfing, hipster stuff) you could tell something unique and refreshing. You are in Africa after all. Dont waste the opportunity.
Tom London Ben's got 2 visual vibes coming out soon, he's pushing himself with the clothing line in a few weeks, and just uploaded the copy cats video where he just sat down and talk to the camera! That's loads of variation!
Tom London first of all your a fud, and second of all please look at your youtube chanel it is a mess, and i challenge you to maybe understand a vlog is bloody 15 minutes long and a whole day is 24 hours long so how can you make asumptions on the mans life when you watch a tailored 15 minutes every so often. Also your a fud.
Tom London I definitely agree with you. His films are great, but I feel he needs to grow some more. Thinking out the box and interacting with other people can be beneficial in so many ways.
Tom London I think that's the beauty of youtube... you watch what you want, and ignore the rest. It's not like you're paying $100+ a month for cable with nothing exciting to watch.
Hey Ben, next year I'm thinking about studying abroad. Originally I was planning on London, but have lately been thinking about Cape Town. As someone who's lived in the UK and SA do you have any advice as to where I'd get the best experience?
I've by studying u mean a university, then go to UCT (university of Cape Town) where Nicole goes or Stellenbosh University which is just outside Cape Town
MagicHarps consider UCT dude, I went there and loved it. Every year there are tons of international students that come through. Stellenbosch is also very cool but you might struggle with the Afrikaans.
Hi Ben, i know you probably won't see this comment but if you do it would be amazing!!!! I love your videos, you have inspired my in so many ways. You have inspired me to travel (Alberta is now the top of my bucket list!) and you have also inspired me in terms of photography and videos. In-fact you inspired me to start my own youtube Chanel (you can probably tell from the music i use!) It would be AMAZING if you, my inspiration, could check it out! i know this is just another comment asking you to look at their youtube channel, but it would mean th world to me if you did, as you are the reason i started my channel. xxx
Such a fun mission yesterday dude! Always good to hang out! :)
Chris Rogers hope to see Scuba Steve while I'm home.
deep talks with Ben and Steve needs to happen just like the q&a with sp
I live on a small island named Curacao close to Venezuela, and with every video you make you inspire me more and more to expand my horizons and see new places and experience new cultures. I absolutely love your work and admire you so much.
Watching this video is getting me excited for summer! I love music festivals:)
lovecatherine07 Agreed!
Your videos are so inspiring. I may be grounded, but I can still watch your vlogs
new intro is sick dude! cant decide which ones i like the best :)
When do we get to see the edit of one of Jeremy's gigs?
Im pumped to see it!!!
MontyPlays I agree, wanna see some more Visual Vibes!!
Looks like such a fun day! I love outdoor music festivals! Thanks for making such great content!
Your blog first then casey's :) then a shiitttttt ton of university work to do.
Casey Neistat at the beginning this guy is true motivation. After I discovered him I am more motivated to keep making my youtube videos than ever before. Ben, love your vlogs as well :)
Yeah, casey I inspiration himself.
Two guys who are one of the best on UA-cam, Ben and Casey.
Tor Same here but he really just motivated me to keep running. I make videos for shits and giggles but the running, I take that seriously now

Nothing beats live music. Life's soundtrack
Just watched Casey's vlog, then a Ben Brown vlog, damn what an awesome start to the day!
Great new intro, Ben! We love it!
I LOVE THOSE CONCERTS! AMAZING

Love you Ben- x
ur life is soooo entertaining love it
Crazy that they were just in Cape Town! I saw them live last year at Firefly Festival in Delaware! Absolutely amazing people!
Ben please have a meet up next time you are in Joburg!
Awesome festival - such nice weather there - at least I get to go to turkey next week if only for 2 days :)
Ben, will you be traveling with Jeremy on his tour? Would be lovely to see you at his concerts!!
I really wanna know where he gets his camera bags?
I can never find one big enough and trendy as well.
Lauryn King Its a LowerPro bag I dont know the model name but theyre all really similar!
Also check out the Brevite Design bag. That's one bag I've been looking at
Lauryn King ONA Bags are pretty nice, I think his is a Lowepro flipped sport, but I'm not sure
If you are in the UK I know that PC world sell lowerpro bags
Also: "It's like someone chucked Lightroom on real life" hahaa I loled
love the intro!!!! you should keep this one ben!
yoooo i love this background song! I always love your background songs ben! :)
Hey Ben keep doing what you do! Keep up with the awesome vlogs! been a fan since 2012 ! :)
his vlogs might be new
but i found him in 2012 :)
You should tell Jeremy about Lalapalooza in Chicago it is huge !!!!!

Great coffee intro.
Another incredible vlog, Ben is my main idol right now!

Did you decide to come along with Jeremy Loops on the US Tour???
Great intro!!
Chris is so chilled, he must be high all the time.
Hey Ben!
How 'bout a music/festival visual vibes :D
Hey Ben, can you challenge yourself a little more. I feel like these music festivals are getting a bit redundant. Its like you are turning into a videographer rather than a film maker.

Tom London I definitely agree with you. His films are great, but I feel he needs to grow some more. Thinking out the box and interacting with other people can be beneficial in so many ways.
Tom London This was a weird and kinda rude way to basically just say that YOU personally are finding the vlogs 'redundant'.
Tom London I think that's the beauty of youtube... you watch what you want, and ignore the rest. It's not like you're paying $100+ a month for cable with nothing exciting to watch.
Ben you should plan a trip like the Canada one or India, but on Haiti maybe with Louis
Its all about the GoPro's
Ben you need more followers!!
Love the intro! So cool :)
I know this videos a year old lmao, but do You remember what brand that watch you were wearing was? Looked really nice and I wanna check it out
Which lenses do you have Ben?
Klingande and Jeremy in one day. Very jealous!!
That sticker is sick!
Your videos are so inspiring. I want to buy me a new Lens this week to do some epic new photographs :) Enjoy your next days!
It would be cool if you could incorporate some slow mo with your sony cam in these vlogs. My eyes wouldn't mind it
i'd love to be in one of those concerts. Keep it up *****
Hey Ben, next year I'm thinking about studying abroad. Originally I was planning on London, but have lately been thinking about Cape Town. As someone who's lived in the UK and SA do you have any advice as to where I'd get the best experience?

Kiril Dobrev I think I'm gonna go for it next year. CT seems like such a unique place, and absolutely gorgeous
Ben have you ever been to the Lake District in the UK, seems like your kinda place
