    Few things 1. Congrats on the wedding. 2. Congrats on 6 years sober (5 years here and agree- life changing). 3. Charging Nazare on a soft top- legend! Lastly, don’t sweat the ring. What made it special is that it represents the bond you now have with Jordan. In reality, it’s just a thing and can be replaced. I have multiple that I change out depending on mood. I even have a $100 Star Wars version that’s engraved with our anniversary date and “The Force is Strong With This One.” The only thing that matters is the meaning behind the ring. Keep living your best life, FOR THE DREAM!!

    Duuuuuuude at 25:40 when I heard those chords to Gutter Drunk’s Poor Me kick in I knew it was about to be a sick edit! Worthy of the throwback, that song kicks ass. So amazing you got to surf at freaking Nazare!! Really not that long ago you were hanging out in FLA with those Gutter Drunk boys. You’ve come a long way and it’s an honor to watch your journey ✌🏽❤️🌊🍍

    Congratulations on six years sober, your marriage and generally just the enormity of your success. You’ve been a huge inspiration to me, I’m working on 18 months sober. Watching you totally motivates me, I serve more and better now than I ever have before. Portugal looked amazing, I studied in Cadiz, Spain and loved it. And yes, I lost of wedding ring also in the ocean! Have Jordan put the next one on your finger, it will be just as special. Keep doing what you’re doing!

    I just watched this while I couldn’t sleep and Ben, I think today is the day I go sober. I drink 10 shots of whiskey a day and smoke about an ounce of Nug a month. As I lay here semi hungover, my liver hurts, my kidneys hurt, I worry that I’m on the edge of liver failure. I believe that if I don’t stop, I’ll be dead in under a year and I really want you to know that I’m appreciative of your honesty. Thanks Ben and I pray that I too can beat this demon. Cheers

    This guy is absolutely nothing short of a great human being. Not only has he gone through his trials and tribulations and faced his demons, but he has also done in a way to not only better himself but also his fans. Me included.
    The secondary effect of Ben and his trajectory is that he brings many from around the world watching. We all take a 20-40 minute break out of our lives to sit and watch the fantastic ride he’s on.
    I'm going to create a gofund page for gravy so we, the fans, can better assist Ben Gravy to make more and more videos like this.
    Whoever would be willing to support Ben Gravy, let me know. I'm starting a godund for Ben Geavy tonight!

I remember how broken up that I was so I know how you feel about that. Hopefully they find it and you will be able to get it back.
    Your message at the end is very inspiring and amazing!! The positivity that you showed literally got me back into the water and started chasing unheard of novelty waves again. Know that you are always supported my friend as you continue your journey!!

    I am so stoked for you(and Jordan). The journey from the bottom, to where I first started following-Rob Kelly Scudder’s intro-genuine stoke over nothing but you made it-so real and infectious. Same stoke I felt for you with getting the gravy bus road dogging, the first Slater pool visit, the 50th state wave in Alaska and the wedding! Nasare on the last day of your honeymoon- I could not be happier for you. You keep on raising the bar. The story line, filmwork, the editing are just getting better too. Go Get it! Legend AF!

    Epic Bro! Portugal is one of the best places on earth. I was scared just watching the shore break from the cliff. I love watching your videos I grew up in seaside and love to see the New Jersey Surf also. I also Lost my wedding ring on my homey moon while surfing Waikiki. Merry Christmas.
