When did you start kayaking? - When I was 8 years old.
What size penny board do you ride? - I have both the Penny & the Nickel.
What do your tattoos mean? My star was just because I thought it looked good.

Why aren't you training for kayaking anymore? - I see new opportunities everyday, I'm just grabbing them as they appear and keep working hard, right now that's KZbin & Film. I'm happy I made the change!
How long do your vlogs take to edit? - They vary massively, sometimes 1 hour sometimes 6+
Still got questions? Watch my last Q&A video! - • SNAPCHAT Q&A WITH SP!

P.s. I love my subscribers :) xx

[@metakognicija]

Oh my God, the toast pyramid...haven't seen that in your vlogs in aaages! Such a flashback to your late 2013/early 2014 vlogs when you repeatedly told us how broccoli stems are good for us and laughed at your own Dublin joke every weekend on YouNow. I'm so happy that I've been here long enough to watch your channel grow. Super proud of you and how far you've come! xx

[@aaronnolan5708]

Ksenija Šiljić Since then, i've always ate my broccoli stems.

[@outdoorhannah]

Ksenija Šiljić Yeeees the broccoli stems :D

[@Ellazar96]

Seeing how much work yourself and SP have put into producing great clothing items is really inspiring! I love watching your vlogs each day for a little dose of positivity and motivation, so stoked for SP's channel too! Love the new items, and the vlogs!

[@benbrown]

Ellie Oliver thank you :)

[@Averro]

ordered! Looking forward to rock the long tee's!

[@TaylorJacksonPhoto]

I've only been watching your vlogs for a week, but I just wanted to say how amazing it is that you're at episode 653. Do you ever go back and watch your own old episodes?

[@WatsonsVenture]

It's early days in the lethal unrelenting world of KZbin comments and already people are degrading the designs and the prices of the Merch. Let's just stop that now and appreciate that no matter the design price or where they do and don't ship to is tough love. We all know Ben and SP have been slaving over this Merch and have made it as cheap, simple and environmentally friendly as possible. So let's chill and appreciate it. Sick vlog as always Ben. Loving the simple sleek designs, look forward to the store evolving and changing over time. ciao x

[@xbinixify]

I do miss the old logo on the T-shirts. I have one but is becoming worn and need a new one. I'm going to order some of the new clothes but would like to see the old ones again some time.

[@dansmithbyu1]

max wildgoose Yes! I like the ones with the old logo as well. The new ones are great too but hopefully they bring it back sometime.

[@xbinixify]

10/10 agree.

[@DixitHappens]

Yep, I want the old logo too :( (anyways ben & Sp thank you for all the work, but awww I want the old logo, I've waited so loong :()

[@danielbelcher8113]

max wildgoose True! I liked the bold black Visual vibes logo and the choice of colours.

[@outdoorhannah]

max wildgoose This!!!! The new clothes are alright, but I would have looooved to have an old work & progress logo shirt in navy or something.. Not sure whether to buy one now since the design is not 100% up my street and they're soooo expensive with the Pound/Euro conversion..

[@liambrookes2775]

Congrats to you & SP on the clothing launch! You guys are showing that hard work really does pay off, massive inspiration. Keep it up guys!!!!

[@drakeseibert4864]

I recently found your videos..... AND I LOVE YOUR VLOGS SO MUCH

[@benbrown]

Drake Seibert Thanks! :D

[@MrGeeksy]

There was a guy at my old school who had a phobia of tea!!! What a mug...

[@Hausay]

Ben these vlogs are such an inspiration. You inspired me to go to new york and challenge myself to make a film every day there and I did it. All of them are going up on my channel over the next few days. You really show that anything is possible with hard work, and hopefully my hard work will pay off one day. Thank you again Ben.

[@JannekeW1996]

Hey Ben, in one of your vlogs this week you said you would do a rap if you would ever hit one million subscribers. I wanted to say that I am very happy you don't have an excessive number of subscribers. It keeps the little community you built friendly, positive and sustainable. Everyone here loves and supports you. I am so thankful for the fact that you do not use misleading titles, do collaborations all the time and get commercial. You don't need that, because you are trustworthy, loyal and honest. Lots of loveee since the very start:)!

[@adventureofhewitt9953]

Today, I ordered, a, "A Work In Progress," long-tee. Such original, authentic design, and I can't wait to wear it during the Summer, when working with a Charity, in Uganda.

[@SChapps]

Just ordered one of the long tees. Love your content and positivity Ben so I'm more than happy to support what you're doing. Not to mention the fact that the clothes look great. Keep it up man

[@JustMurrayTV]

The toast tent is back!

[@GinoTerzano1]

About the plane tracking app: The red ones are generated from real-time data (ADS-B source), the orange ones have got a little delay on them, the data source for those planes is the American ASDI system owned and managed by the Federal Aviation Administration (that's why you see a lot of orange planes around the US on your phone). The reason why they have this delay is mainly for safety reasons and also, those planes' data goes through several checks, so that the FAA can know for sure that the plane they're dealing with is actually a legit passenger or cargo plane flying a legitmately registered flight.

[@Marianahellas]

I ve seen all the visual vibes videos and many of your vlogs. Your work is just amazing. Your people must be so proud of you. I'd really love to meet you someday and tell me everything about your trips and experiences. You seem like you have found the true meaning of life. Please come to GREECE. Im so sure you' ll love it! Take care Ben :)

[@MontyVirusHM]

Oh wow Ben's shop is up! I can finally buy all that hip clothing! *Realises I'm poorer than dirt*

[@biancamusson606]

Love the new clothing! It ends up being $54dollars to get one to New Zealand. But no worries, that's what we have parents for :)

[@4339rose]

The original design was unique and that is a big attractant to many peeps, something fun or special to you....get that creative mind bubbling Ben!

[@yonatanshwartzberg6120]

Excellent vlog

[@jimp514]

The film you mentioned with regards to the parakeets escaping was 'The African Queen'

[@benbrown]

Jim P awesome knowledge! thanks!

[@jimp514]

***** I only know because somebody else told me one night whilst having a pint by the river in Kingston :)

[@Equestrianlottie]

Got me a sweatshirt! Thought you would go for something a bit different this time but I totally get why you've done it. Happy to invest in this now and wait for the awesome stuff I know you will be bringing out soon :) Also love the environmental aspect of the range, really hard to find affordable clothing like this at the moment.

[@letiziabaldi1749]

The long tee is so cool,i want it!

[@Mirthful-vj7ux]

Loves to you both!!!

[@joshabbey9153]

I love the thin hoodie so much ive ordered one.

[@WadeWilliamson]

Really enjoy your vlogs and great website! :)

[@46gaba]

Dude, I'm seriously disappointed that there is no shipping to South Africa!

[@benbrown]

Me too! I've tried to ship there & 50% of the orders don't turn up, so we looked at private shipping which ended up being almost as expensive as the t-shirt! I'll work on getting some stuff out there :)

[@46gaba]

Thank you so much for having clearly put a lot of thought into this entire process. I seriously hope that you do find a way to ship to SA. Once again thank you for responding!!!

[@ajphillips98]

I always place my toast in that way now thanks to you it's the best!

[@ndacosta2]

Went to go order but there isn't any visual vibe vests! Guess I'll be waiting for the next run!

[@GentiG4shi]

[@lh2le]

[@annezonneveld7283]

Bought a visual vibes tee, love it! DESPERATELY waiting for the hats though :)

[@MrMeltonfoxes]

I think I might buy a t-shirt and omg please make sure you reinvest to sell hats!

[@iguuude007]

You're THE man of creativity, ben! 👌 By the way: what is this plane- app called? Thanks!

[@benbrown]

iguuude007 thanks dude haha :) the app is Plane Finder!

[@Rukiakun]

Yay!

[@maahiulalam]

Whop under the 301 club!

[@monkey2134920]

I bought a visual vibes sweatshirt last night..and I'm too excited for it to come in the mail

[@thisissimply]

I just ordered the hoody! :)

[@ipena039]

Hi Ben! Just started following and love the vlogs. Are you going to bring any merchandise with you when you come to the U.S with Jeremy?

[@ZachBussey]

Good stuff! Checking it out now! :)

[@guyphillips13]

I'm either gonna get the Work in Progress Long Tee or an oversized Sweatshirt

[@shayma95]

just bought a tshirt and the stickers :)

[@benbrown]

shayma. thank you :)

[@jasminesaunders9306]

Wish you did women's tanks and more dark grey stuff, but still purchasing! Also Baseball tees would have been great :)

[@emilylord475]

just bought a tee and can't wait !! for the uk the price is very good and only £1 for postage !!

[@benbrown]

Em Lord we subsidise some of the postage for our UK Brownies :)

[@estevaomilazzo]

More Pennyboard videos! :)

[@adeelibrahim5401]

Can you bring back the Work In Progress ones please?

[@benbrown]

Mario Essex we've updated the design, it's simple and not in your face, the last design took me an hour to make and I never really loved it, we won't be printing that again but we are going to bring out other designs that are a bit more colourful and fun! thanks :)

[@leena1658]

The unisex dark grey visual vibes sweatshirt is the best one!! I hope you can restock it later because i can get one now :(

[@ClaudiasFilms]

bought a Visual Vibes tee! so excited!

[@ClaudiasFilms]

LifeofClaudia would also love to see Visual Vibes/ swallow/ Mr Ben Brown phone cases!

[@JacobCrowMains]

You know about the super green

[@Rossfer23]

The new designs are good Ben but I think the old work in progress design was better than these ones. You set such a high standard with the previous one that it was always going to be hard to follow. This is just my personal opinion though, there's no doubt loads of people will love the new designs. Can't wait for the hats btw :)

[@Frodovia]

I live in Costa Rica and I ordered a hoodie and my brother is going to the US in 2 weeks, I hope the hoodie gets on time, otherwise I will have to pay a lot more for the shipping to Costa Rica, like $40 or more :/

[@erin7182]

We have parakeets around here too, they're quite odd haha

[@MattPitmanVlogs]

Cant wait ben!

[@MattPitmanVlogs]

[@OpheliaJohnOfficial]

Not available in my country (Malaysia) unfortunately, but that's okay. Still watching your vlogs.

[@bd4853]

we need 5 panels

[@benbrown]

We need £10,000 to order the 5 panels!

[@bd4853]

I will pay all of that if that's what it takes, Ben Brown 5 panels would be legendary. The vibes would be the strongest thing ever

[@Just_ChappyAUS]

Ben I wish it wasn't so expensive! 40 pounds is like 80 Aus dollars! If only it was cheaper....... The Work in progress logo is pretty cool tho!

[@Apamittemot]

What's happening Ben! I was wondering if you could showcase your cap selection? I've become very fond to some of them and I would love to know the name so that I maybe can pick one up! ;) I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering, so please, make this happen! :') Okay, love you, bye!

[@piehjay]

[@TheViroArts]

Ordered the longer shirt, really liking that swallow on the back, they look sick

[@FraserCottrell]

Where do you get the stickers printed?

[@maritemelendez284]

The tees in Different colors wouldve been nice, why only white? :(

[@benbrown]

Marite Melendez because we were super limited on budget, we went for white because it goes with most things. The last time I sold stuff hardly anyone bought the colour tops... sorry

[@maritemelendez284]

Its ok, theyre still awesome!

[@MehdiNPartDeux]

***** Do you have any medium navy blue or grey Work In Progress jumpers lying around? I'd love to buy one

[@MissMeliM]

Please do a new design like the work in progress with the paddle ore another kajak theme. I already bought a visual vibe one but I was a little bit upset because I looked so much forward to get the work in progress one.

[@manolettereyes5305]

What app is that with all the plane thingy?

[@ScottsMind98]

Hey ben, can you release sizes? I want to be getting one for my birthday, and you said you wear a medium, in tat case how tall are you? I want one of the normal size tees with the work in progress on them, and im 6ft tall, so don't know which size to get between medium or large...

[@chs75]

He is like 5'8" or 5'9", a large might work best for you.

[@ScottsMind98]
