I once got locked up in Lancashire and they said West Yorkshire were useless and were ringing them asking them what to do with certain people they had in custody , there custody staff are arseholes they shout g4s over like power rangers to twist you up. Lol

[@sarahsmith7257]

I could listen to you all day.

[@georgegarbett205]

Definately inter force cakes 😂 love stories like this 👮‍♂️

[@rs250alex2]

Could you do a video on what police really think about the modified car scene

[@louisasutcliffe7778]

The stories are funny! My question is, when shit bags get off or get out of prison, do they taunt you and try to make you react?

[@thomasbyrne2610]

Honestly keep these story’s coming I honestly believe u should start a pod cast

[@petercawthorne5997]

Absolutely !

[@mrstar666]

I’d definitely listen to that

[@AsILayDyingBFMV]

100%

[@ethanreeve4271]

Interviewing other ex officers, and active if possible! ‘Spike’ from Police interceptors, I think he’d be a great person to interview👍🏼👍🏼

[@richardroberts1594]

What an idea that would be. 1000%

[@JamDGhost]

One of the most down to earth fella’s ever. The stories this legend tells keep me hooked from start to finish. I could listen to him read the ingredients off a bottle of bleach an still find it enthralling.

[@eadweard.]

Yeah. I couldn't even understand the story but still found it entertaining!

[@junekatana78]

That norff for ya lad.

[@stdazza5997]

I wish more police were like this. I understand they need to be professional but my god, this guy makes the police human. He goes beyond the façade of most police. keep it coming dude, keep the police human.

[@dcl6793]

'Cluster f**k' the best way to describe most operations in the police 😂😂 if you know, you know!

[@paulevans9307]

Rocked up on an emergency transfer to a hospital in Essex, to the wrong parking area for where we needed. HALO (liaison officer) is all "What are you doing here? You should know that you need to be over there and not here,what are you doing?" as we're sat in a vehicle that looks different than the local offerings and has "SURREY" painted on the sides. One of the great things with English services as opposed to US ones is that services can cross borders and have national coverage. One of the downsides is that we get sent across borders and with national coverage...

[@GeorgeParkerCustom]

Thought I'd share a quick story Ben...I met a lad in a chip shop on Friday, I was getting some food before going through to Leeds to meet a girl from Tinder. I'm in the shop and I get chatting to him, he was about your age, and I'm talking a bit colourful about the speed I'm going to be doing to get to this date on time. My car is sat outside (A BMW 3 Series, the exact same as the one Traffic Coppers use) and we get chatting about it, I'm there again being slightly colourful about its behaviour on motorways in the past and I go so what do you do? He goes "I'm a traffic copper!"...The world fell out my arse for a second :D I mentioned you and told him to give you a watch as I can't stop! Just goes to show coppers can be decent people too!!

[@Jaystephen22]

Can you do one on a story about if you have ever arrested someone you didn’t want to arrest if that happens. 😆😆. Keep it up Ben mate

[@sirianofmorley]

Ben could read me the dictionary and I'd be engaged the whole time. Brilliant.

[@GraveEncountersFan]

Dreading the day you stop making these mate, haven’t even watched it yet but I know it’s going to be class

[@imkirbo3094]

"Look at his white streak in his hair" hahahaha. You have me in stitches in these videos Ben

[@kimrutherford1259]

Im a student paramedic, and I really enjoy listening to your stories after long shifts, thankyou !

[@benmarshall787]

I didn't think of Brooklyn 99,as I'm of a certain age Ben, after hearing your story today, I thought of THE first ever interceptor, Sheriff Buford T. Justice, and his immortal line "I've been in a high speed pursuit for 900 miles, you moose twit" what an icon! Great story as always Ben. Be careful. 🚌🚍🇬🇧😆 Ben

[@scoobydoo6344]

Ben could have his own channel five tv program along side the Police Interceptors doing this as he is great, well done Ben

[@Gary87]

Loving these videos and listening to some truly amazing stories. You’re an inspiration and a true hero Ben. Thanks for your service

[@DiRTemma]

Did anyone else think when he said 'Lancashire', Tommy's voice come to mind 'are those Lancashire pigs'? 'who the fucks talking to you boy!?'

[@dansmith4700]

Great channel, very interesting, this was funny, but the last video me and the wife watched was the worst fatal, very sad and I get why you talk about the rucksack

[@PumpkinBecki]

Really appreciating the range of experiences you're sharing with us Ben, and it's nice to hear you laughing this time xx

[@LostWolf911]

I just want to say thank u for all the work u did I’m currently in police cadets wanting to be a police officer when I’m older and these videos are quite educational so thank u Ben stay safe

[@Liberty_Freedom_Brotherhood]

Try not to become a tyrant

[@liamhorn1150]

Love this guy if your a friend of his you got one blinking good mate

[@elainedonnelly3014]

Oh god Ive only ever been arrested once for drunk & disorderly. I was giving it the big one, but when I woke up sober in that cell, oh my god was terrified 🤣 never ever again. Law Binding Citizen 👌🇬🇧

[@shivanimistry4503]

Is it bad that every time I see there’s a new video I save it till the evening to enjoy in peace and quiet 👀😂

[@paulcollyer801]

One of those “You Can’t Script It” moments. Was in a car trying to Join a pursuit, and control switched the channel to the specific one for pursuit. Neither the driver nor I knew of the soft key option to change to that channel, and after 5 mins of scrolling through on the car radio I was, ahem, 🤢🤢. Driver gave up as we’d missed 5 mins of info. Sarge back at the nick told us the soft key, never forgotten that. Ftr, about 30secs after driver aborted trying to join, I asked em to stop, and heaved as I got out. I lost no food but close call. Purely cos my head was down for 5 mins of hard driving, Not seeing any of the outside lurching around, NOT cos of the driver.

[@jenniferholden9397]

Cops do have the best stories, my big bro was a cop and a night out with him and his mates they’re so funny, you’ve laughed so hard you feel bruised.

[@jondrake2598]

These videos get me really excited and help me prepare to join the police thank you 🙂

[@elastronaute1198]

police nark

[@iaincathro3373]

Find these stories fascinating. My dad was a cop and one of his pals a traffic sergeant taught me to drive AFTER I’d passed my test. I never had the bottle to be a cop, but if I had I’d definitely have wanted to be traffic. Thanks for the stories Ben and keep them coming please.

[@LUVCHUNK]

you pulled me on the 62 near little house on the prairie a few year ago you bastard lol in fairness really nice bloke never gave me a ticket

[@Ashf79]

Had to come back and watch this again 😂

[@BritishEmergencyVideos]

There was a pursuit that came out of Northamptonshire at J15, went up to Birmingham, picking up all sorts of forces on the way up and then made it all the way to the City of London...picking all sorts of forces as they rattled down the M1 😂😂

[@DARKSLIDEHLL]

Wish we had police like you In Scotland. Even from the other side of the cuffs so to speak, clear you're a legend lol

[@atvseatexchange2176]

Great to see you smiling and having fun. Nothing better for the soul, take care Ben.

[@volvos60bloke]

A genuine joy to watch, and a story brilliantly told. As I've said before, prime-time TV material.

[@bradleytobylee4945]

These are going to blow up... just wait for the algorithm

[@s-e-i138]

Does this count as a bomb threat??...

[@DC3Refom]

@@s-e-i138 😂

[@Indoor_Carrot]

You need to make a podcast of all your stories from your career. I'd listen to that all day ❤

[@Pieman.simon23]

Totally cheered up my mundane evening after unloading trucks all afternoon, cheers Ben, keep it going, your videos are sure to go viral soon, straight worded and down to earth 👍

[@pauldown7766]

I love watching police interceptors, and remember you very well Ben, people think it's all glamour driving around in top police cars pulling people over, but in reality there is the horror of the crashes and how that can effect a mind of a first responder, Thank you Ben, for the stories, and I hope you are in a better place now

[@MrDanTrials]

That's mad, I honestly thought there would be some piece of technology that would broadcast to vehicles in the local area. These days an eleven-year-old would find you on social media and send you a text in about 3 minutes flat!

[@charliemanson4808]

Ahhhh a bit of Ben in the afternoon, the day just got better. Peace Charlie 🇬🇧

[@Kaneisback2]

Dont be too embarrassed, in Bradford as a supermarket manager we had a GMP off duty cop walk past a thug who was assaulting staff. She just gave us her number if we needed it in court, while supermarket staff had to pin and restrain the aggressive member of public until WYP arrived.

[@donaljamescaddye3805]

Who's these dickheads ? Had me in stitches !! At least you didn't say "not my job mate" - Every story is so captivating ! Keep it up Ben !!

[@postRMO]

These are some of the greatest stories told by one of the best guys, always so good to hear from you mate

[@lewis589]

Wish there was a lot more videos that you had posted i remember watching your first video you posted 3 hours after it got published

[@MrBatman19833]

Hahahah brilliant, when you said you can’t shout out the windows, that had me laughing out loud 😹😹

[@CAD9686]

I could listen to Ben all day, he's a really interesting and funny guy!

[@CAD9686]

Cheers for the heart Ben! North Wales Police dispatcher here, can relate to so many of your stories!

[@stewartschomberg9287]

Please keep these coming Ben, incredible.

[@114hours]

I’m from and live In Bradford (Shipley), glad we have some Legend like you from our city!

[@stevencarsley1983]

Had to watch this again. So funny. County lines.

[@georgiacondliffe7281]

CEO of Liking the video before it’s started ✔️

[@Fyodor48]

Ben, *I have such respect for you brother* talking openly about your experience is surely the most awesome thing a recent serving Police Officer has done for a very long time. I am convinced I am not alone when I say I have been mistreated by the police at some point in my life, (a very long time ago) fair play I got an apology from a very senior officer when he visited my home. All that said, I have *HUGE* respect for the Police Force despite my experience. I can speak to the *Courage* , *Compassion* and *Care* that Police Officers have shown to folks that are close to me. The Interceptors are the poorer for your absence Ben, and that's a *Fact* *Given both your Police, and your personal experience Ben, there has to be a role in the Force for someone like yourself, too counsel, listen and let other Officers benefit from everything you have been through. For sure, there must be others whom are close to where you have been, and it's obvious you have a heart the size of a bus*

[@artie2070]

Another cracking upload - even I was laughing to myself watching this. Keep them coming👍👍

[@alexswatton3359]

Ben your book that you have written is unbelievably brilliant. It is beautifully written and state your whole journey within the police force highly would recommend the book to anyone one of the best that I have read in recent years in autobiographys

[@danielmarshall4587]

A new video from Mr Pearson and it not even Friday, OH LOVELY.

[@ImRhys]

This is brilliant, hahaha! - I love listening to all these stories, so happy to hear all your experiences. Used to love watching you on Interceptors back in the day too!

[@01cthompson]

LOL. I can relate. In the ambulance service I worked for we had radios that required two hands to shift frequencies between regions. You sometimes had to steer with your elbow to set the channel for the paramedic in the back.

[@maxcullen3427]

Absolutely incredible Ben 👮🏻‍♂️

[@andyhillhouse9813]

This is turning into one of my favourite KZbin channels keep the videos coming Ben!

[@s-e-i138]

I watched an episode of Police interceptors earlier...."the one with the decommissioned ambulance vs train tracks" madness but you were hilarious

[@Stylishman3378]

Nice bit of light hearted banter brother well done mate

Time for a podcast Ben! I could listen to you all day!

[@Dannne96]

"Bobbies" what a fun word for police officers 😂😂 Im from Sweden so I havn't heard it before

[@BenPearson1965]

Hi from Yorkshire

[@danimayb]

It's a very old police term in England. The nickname originally came from London's metropolitan police who were founded by Sir Robert Peel early 1800s, Bob is a hypocorism for Robert, So hence Bobby - get it? :)

[@Dannne96]

@@danimayb Ohh now I get it! Had no clue

[@John_3_16]

It's also why police are called peelers too

[@jakejenkins4380]

Very very funny. Your videos are great thank you so much. We need more ;)

[@ethanreeve4271]

Amazing content. If you’ve uploaded, KZbin isn’t getting closed until the video is watched👍🏼 I dread the day you run out of on the job stories, saying that, 20 years in you might not run out😂
