This is my story (Part 1)

Kieran Miles inspired me to do this, Thought I would share my story to the rest of the world, watch part two. • This is my story (Part 2)

[@MsBeat2Beat]

He died a week later after posting this video. It obviously meant he was supposed to tell the world his story :( RIP Ben.

[@keundraskinner0]

Wow you had such a beautiful smile. U made me love you and didn't know u. But that's ok we'll get a chance to know each in heaven. Love you sweet angel guy.

[@jenniferkordecki-johnson5745]

Ben, You were my niece's, Jennifer Johnson, inspiration for her flashcard video..... We lost her a week before Christmas 2012 from Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy. Like you, she was taken from us too soon. I know you have found each other where ever there is after here...Keep her safe until we see her again.

[@needyoubyme]

Omg R.I.P you are perfect. I love you!

[@CupcakeRollerblades]

RIP, My friend

[@nailluverrr955]

I can see why Ben picked this background song as his song. If you didnt know the background songs name is Mad World by Gary Jules and theres a line in the song that says "The dreams in which in dying are the best i ever had" and thats true for Ben because all he wanted was to be at peace and when he passed out he was truly at peace and now he is forever at peace :) and im happy for him because everybody deserves to have peace.

[@hellotherepinay]

I want to thank you, Ben. You have helped me truly realize how big of a blessing our lives are, and that we must cherish every moment of it. You have certainly shared your story with the world, and I'm sure you've touched every single person who has watched this video. Rest in Peace, you are an amazing inspiration!

[@JhonathanYo]

I cried my eyes out watching this. R.I.P Ben, you were a brave guy! You have forever influenced me!

[@VictoriaaWyattt]

It's so amazing to see so many people still loving Ben, and praying for him and his family

[@hannahedmondss]

Q. D. E. P./R. I. P i cant stop cry :'(

[@xt3ffix]

Ben, you've touched my heart forever. I feel so sad but I know I shouldn't be because you are in a happier place now. You are a beautiful soul and your cheerfulness and strength is a true inspiration, you are a hero. I will appreciate life and be a better person in your honor. Anyone who knew you is blessed to have had you in your life. Because of your video, I have renewed faith that there is an afterlife and God. Keep smiling in heaven, we love you Ben =)

[@LoyalandTrue.]

You were so tough all those years, and you still had that beautiful smile on your face! This made me realize my problems arent as bad as others and I shouldnt take life for granted, rest in peace, Ben

[@Ellalovesfashion]

Rest in Peace Ben, over the past year i can't stop thinking about you! My prayers go out to Ben's family and friends on this day which is now bittersweet.

[@KITS0NKISS]

Still can't believe this actually happened to him. Even though I've never met him before, you could tell from all of the videos he did that he was such a sweet, caring and very inspiring guy (+ he had the cutest smile!)

[@stuartcat671]

When I watched this I got an amazing feeling. Rip

[@nobodynows10]

[@makeupprep101]

RIP Ben. You were and still an amazing person, and an angel sent from heaven. I will be honored to meet you when the time comes to go up there.

[@ajaybaby16]

[@iankaking]

[@Aariyan096]

His story is very heartfelt. I need to count my blessings because he gives us hope. :'-)

[@hannakearfott3733]

I love his smile...he makes me smile❤

[@lolhiidkbye]

I've watched this atleast 5 times and it still gets me everytime. He's so sweet and such an inspiration. I don't know why, but it hurts to even get on Youtbue with out being sad and thinking about Ben. I feel so close to him, in a way I can't even describe. It's terrible to even think Ben isn't here, after watching all his videos, watching him be so lively. Rest in Peace, Ben. May God hold you forever, and keep you safe. :) (I'm honestly kind of REALLLLLYYY excited to meet Ben in heaven one day)

[@MiniV826]

Man, I came across these videos almost a year ago, and when I first saw these heart-wrenching things, they made me bawl for hours. I put them in a playlist and I bust rediscovered them. Now when I watch them, I think of the happy state he is in right now. And that is what we all should do. Don't think about the suffering he had on earth, but rather the awesome place and life he is living right now.

[@AbbieCooper3397]

Rest In Peace, Ben. I didn't know you, but you helped a lot of people.

[@kawaibluebow]

I .....love you! r.i.p ...your story reminds me of that one japanese movie called '' I give my first love to you.'' it's amazing....I wish you could've watched it.

[@519trueblue]

I was thinking of this guy the other day. I never even met him, but I still miss him. My love and heart goes to his family and friends. I hope to see him in paradise.

[@alyssawilliams917]

Rest in peace. You will NEVER be forgotten. I can watch this video over and over again but yet still cry. Missin' you down here.

[@katnelson1788]

you were amazing. i hope you like it in heaven. RIP Ben.

[@Wollsie]

As I watched this, I didn't cry (I don't cry easily...) but, I felt comforted. Also knowing he died on Christmas like Jesus makes know that there was a purpose. There is a purpose for everything. Rest in Peace Ben. Everyone on KZbin wishes you aren't dead. Everyone on the world wishes you aren't dead. If you are watching me type this right now, I want you to know, it's going to be ok

[@Octopiasaurus123]

I cried the whole way through this...RIP Ben, I may not have known you but seeing you smile in this video talking about what you are gives me so much hope in the world, you're so beautiful and I hope heaven is all that you dreamed of and more xoxox

[@alina5glam]

Wherever you are Ben, keep smiling. It's one of the most beautiful and encouraging things I have ever seen...

R.I.P. Ben thank you for fighting and staying as strong for as long as you did. you touched so many peoples life. you will never be forgotten

[@jazshadows]

The song is a version of "Mad World" originally performed by Tears For Fears... but i prefer the version of Michael andrews feat gary jules.

Its amazing yet so sad that he made this video just before he died, on xmas day. But thats what he wanted. This is all just overwhelming.

[@majakalaica8029]

R.I.P rest in peace. :(

[@amberleden]

Rest in paradise -3 this actually has me really upset but so inspired to live life to the fullest. Some of us have no idea how much we take for granted, and how many people say they wish to die when there is people fighting to live. So many new realizations, I just want to thank him for all the messages he's showed me by sharing his story. Thank you and I hope you're still smiling Ben -3

[@dolakphoebus9062]

Ben, thanks for sharing your story with the world. I too have been to that peaceful place when I was 23, saw that bright light and came back. Like you, I will never forget that day. I am 28 now but each and everyday when I wake up, I smile that somehow I am granted another day to make a difference in this world. I know that you are at peace Ben and I hope to see you on the other side when my day comes.

[@WeirdBulldog]

R.I.P Ben, he died on December 25 2011 :(

[@leakim97]

Respect from sweden rip see u in valhalla viking.

[@lillover1221]

I just cried. U r an inspiration to the whole world! I'm so sorry...R.I.P

[@icowolf93]

We all regret about something when nothing can be done about it. Too bad for this dude - he seems a really nice boy and probably a friend one can rely on. I also regret I had never had a chance to get to know him. God bless his soul and I wish to his parents to be strong in sake of his memory. R.I.P. Ben!

[@lisa123593]

he looks so good, I always want I boyfriend that looks like him, but I think I never would like him to be my boyfriend because I would be to sad to handle with his death

[@SpontaneousVincent]

I honestly don't know what to say... I have empathy for him though. I know a few people with Heart Conditions as well. Perhaps 1 TOO many...Most of them I met when I was in the United States ARMY... Goodbye Ben....: (

[@TheCamMan54321]

I met Ben's parents and sister today at church. My prayers will be with Ben and his family on Christmas. R.I.P Ben!

His birthday this year would have been August 8th. He might have passed away but he is now in a much better place and he has touched and inspired hearts all over the world. He had a higher purpose in life.

[@NirzSR11]

Ahhh Ben, you are an inspiration to me and I'm sure to many people as well, you've told me never to give up in life no matter how hard and tough it gets and to always have faith and trust in God. I know you are resting in perfect peace buddy, God Bless you :)
