[@roymeetsworld1]

Love the fireplace at night, so nice

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@SimonOutdoors]

Can't beat a decent Chilli! Great video, those pots of Camden looked delicious! Great to have some company I bet. Def a cold one, enjoyed it Ben, cheers Si

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks mate. Camden’s in the sun…🍺 Hope all well - Ben

[@patrickj8984]

world record holder,well done fella! get down to devon for some quiet.... there be cream,custard,sand and cider.......

[@benhikescamps]

Sounds good to me!! 👍

[@TravelingTramps]

Loved your cold bivvy camp adventure, Londoner. For a wonderful cause too! You we're mentioned in a video we just watched by O.B.'s Outdoors and though we'd stop by and say Hi. We're so happy we did! Mental Health is such a wonderful cause!

[@benhikescamps]

Hello Dave and Kathy. Many thanks for stopping by and watching. Most appreciated. 👍

[@ChrisJB]

Nice one Ben.....some very well managed woods for wildlife there. I liked the dawn chorus and the calling green woodpecker. You also had a very good plant at 11:33, a species called spurge laurel, one I have always wanted to see. Yes, a wood I'd get excited about! Best wishes, Chris

[@benhikescamps]

Wow, thanks Chris for that woodland insight. Very interesting. Hope you’re well. I think I might need to catch up on your latest video. ATB - Ben

[@bigearsbridge4732]

Nice little camp and glad you record breakers all survived the night. Loved that dawn chorus, cheers for another great vid 👍.

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks Bigears. Yes, can’t beat the chorus.

[@o.bsoutdoors3871]

We really enjoyed this video Ben, nice to see you do something a bit different with friends, the campsite looked great with all the tarps set up!😊👍. Do you know if the record attempt was successful as yet? Hope so! Really cool thing to be a part off. Although it did look rather chilly🥶😆. You don't need to apologise for the traffic noise in your videos, credit to you for still getting out into the outdoors and doing what you love despite living in an urban environment, it shows a true passion for the outdoors😊🤩🙌. Thanks for taking us along, take care and have a great week, Shell and Pete

[@benhikescamps]

Hi Shell. Thanks for dropping by. Apparently, a new record has been set with 1387 but it has to be officially verified by the Guinness Book of Records which takes up to 12 weeks. Hope you and Pete well. Take care - Ben

[@DartmoorPaul]

Nice, but think I’ll stick to the tent for now, the thought of being exposed to “things” in the night….brrrrrr!! 😂 Your cliff top camp though & watching Simon Outdoors in the Peaks has given me the shove to get out on Dartmoor this weekend. Thanks Ben! have a great weekend

[@benhikescamps]

Glad to be of help! Enjoy the camp this weekend Paul 👍👍

@@benhikescamps All good this end, Ben. Thank you pal.

[@michaelgatford6194]

Firstly a MASSIVE congratulations on the bivvy_ camp record, also a BIG thank you for the shout out mate. I feel honoured and it's appreciated. Love when you said about falling and mentioned the other video. So had you had a few cans before that camp to LOL. You might have these already as I haven't checked what merchandise you do but I really need a Londoner outdoors beanie ! Awesome video as always Ben. Can't wait for the next fella.

[@benhikescamps]

A pleasure as always Michael! Your support is hugely valued. Glad you liked it too 👍 If you go to the Londoner Outdoors ‘About’ bit on the channel, you should see a link to the merch store. There are LO beanies in there. Thanks again - Ben🙏

[@michaelgatford6194]

@@benhikescamps that's be because your a genuinely nice bloke and you have brilliant content. I would love to see a bloopers video of all your outtakes LOL I'll head over and have a look. Take care and stay safe

[@AirbornePirates]

Enjoyed this one Ben, always very well presented :)

[@benhikescamps]

Cheers Matt. Glad you liked it. 👍Hope all well your end.

[@HardyTempestsWildCampsandWalks]

Chilled out camp quite literally. Nice one mate. Hardy

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks Hardy. I’m looking forward to spring temperatures and lighter evenings!

[@crazyhorsejohnny1974]

Nice bivvy camp with friends. Enjoyable as always. Thanks for sharing. Take care and stay safe.

[@benhikescamps]

Many thanks 👍👍

[@DrunkOnWanderlust]

Congratulations on the world record effort!! 😃 I still haven’t bivvy camped just yet … I think the beers were necessary to help with the cold x

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks Kerry! You should bivvy. Surprisingly cosy and connects you to nature!

[@BurtonOutdoors]

I do love a bivvy camp... simple camping 👍 Nice one Ben 👍

[@benhikescamps]

What's the old acronym? K.I.S.S: Keep it simple stupid! Cheers Lee ✊🏻

[@BurtonOutdoors]

@Londoner Outdoors I think you're far from stupid 🤣👍 I do love the simplicity of using a bivvy, lighter pack too, even when using a hammock I like to look out on the world. I like a tent but don't like waking up and looking at material... its all about the views 😁

[@LundysWildcampBushcraft]

Nice one Ben I was gutted I couldn't get out to take part in the bivvy bag world record attempt atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks Jimmy mate

[@DayTripperAdventures]

A world record attempt will never be easy Ben but you braved the cold and survived. Great effort taking part 👍😄

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks Richard!

[@JamesSouthwood]

Nice. I actually bivvied last weekend without realising I was participating in a concerted effort. +1 to the final figure :)

[@benhikescamps]

Great!

[@moyahaigh9593]

Congratulations on the world record bivvy camp. Although rather nippy

[@hazzardoutdoors]

[@benhikescamps]

Thanks Carl. Was good fun.

[@WanderingMonck]

Good stuff!

[@benhikescamps]

[@goldman509]

Hi londoner outdoors. How are you doing

[@joseligeiro]

Do internationals count too? I also slept in a Dutch ex-military Hooped Bivy for two nights under a tarp...

[@benhikescamps]

Only valid if you signed up and displayed the code on the date of the camp I’m afraid. 👍

[@paulo5456]

It was a cold one. We had iced over puddles near our camp.

[@benhikescamps]

Very true ❄️❄️❄️

[@Nora_meow99]

Great sharing gaess Thanks for sharing Greeting 💕

You're always welcome to camp with me on Dartmoor, rest assured no traffic noise. Well done for getting out and doing this.

[@benhikescamps]

I might have to take you up on that rialobran! Thanks for watching as always. 👍

[@ramblingracheltrailtales]

Brilliant! Well done on completing that bivvie challenge. It looked like a lovely spot for a pitch despite the road noise in the background. I like birdsong in the morning, a good way to start any day 😀

[@benhikescamps]

Many thanks Rachel. I love that early morning woodland birdsong.

[@PearloftheOrientinEmeraldIsle]
