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. My skull was my reward for winning the marathon world championships in 2010, my triangle on my hand reminds me to keep moving forward and make progress, and my turtle/Pura Vida tattoo on my leg is a reminder of my amazing time in Costa Rica :)

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

[@JacobCrowMains]

Your my favourite Vlogger man, the effort you put into your content and your perspective on life is inspiring, keep it up bro

[@fleischubermskelett4397]

it made me really sad that you and nicole won't be seeing each other much during the next months :'(

[@mrrosslwilliams]

fleischübermskelett Yeah, that's exactly how I felt :'(

[@iasliam]

Ben you just made my day, your videos are always so positive and happy and today i was feeling all shook up and sad and then I check KZbin, see you've uploaded and feel so different now, thank you! - London looks amazing :)

[@iasliam]

***** Cant wait to go back :) Loving the Instagrams and all the photography :)

[@jameshartley787]

Don't know how Ben manages to keep the vlogs so exciting and interesting, while keeping them honest and serious in such a genuine way! Credit to you bro!

[@park2456]

Don't worry Ben, your vlogs are always entertaining and interesting! Hope you feel better as well bro :)

[@danwaits]

Watching your vlogs IS NOT entertainment. We watch your vlogs because we get to visit with you for 10 - 15 minutes each day. iow, we care about you as a person & look forward to spending a few minutes with you each day. We're not checking in w/ you to get a few giggles & be diverted for a while from our day's activities. We're visiting with someone who is important to us, whose life we find interesting, & whose thinking & dreams encourages us &/or challenges us. AND DO YOU EVER FORGET IT!!!!!!! ;-)

[@danwaits]

And DON'T you ever forget it! (Darn autocrroect!!!)

[@benbrown]

dan waits :') thanks Dan!

[@danwaits]

Yur welcome - get I to some mischief today - of course, if SP is w/ u, u don't need any encouragement! ;-) LOL

[@shpresasulo]

This is exactly how I feel about every KZbinr I watch. I don't necessarily watch for the entertainment factor. I watch because I have found people that share the same ideas as me, have the same aspirations, but yet are different enough from myself that I learn from these people and their lives/perspectives. THAT is why I love KZbin and blogs.

[@MelanieKateLove]

Awww Ben, so sorry to hear about your recent news with Nicole. I'll stay positive for you and I'm sure the universe will line something up for you both. Long distant relationships are never easy

[@peacelovejuicy57]

Im entertained, educated and inspired everyday Ben, so thank you for that!

[@gabyvanreeuwijk2041]

Love your video's Ben! You inspire me so much in life. Thank you for being you and just know that you make a lot of people happy:) I'm actually sad as well that Nicole isn't going to be in a video for so long! We (viewers) miss that girl as well:( Luckily Skype is invented and you can still kind of see her:) Keep up the good work! Can't wait for the clothing line to come out! .x

[@matthewhardy4288]

Aww bless your lil cottons Ben, I feel for you man! But keep up the great work and I'm stoked for your new merch to come out soon!

[@MatthewMolletVlogs1]

Another sick vlog.. Still killin the game mr brown !!

[@justsayneenuh]

IM REALLY LIKING THESE TWISTY FLIPPY INTRO CLIP CHANGE THINGS THAT GO WITH THE MUSIC IDK WHAT THE TECHINICAL TERM IS OR IF THERE EVEN IS A TECHNICAL TERM BUT I LIKE THEM

[@chrlttspncr]

Should have seen mad max!!

[@muminavan]

dont stress ben! the vlogs are never repetitive! keep up the awesome work! Super stoked for the new clothing!!

[@marcosanchez4336]

I actually like these really chill vlogs. Still very entertaining. Can't wait until you and Jeremy come to Dallas! I'm so stoked!

[@leena1658]

I'm glad you poured your heart out at the end about you and nicole! We love watching your vlogs because we enjoy YOU (and your people)! You dont have to worry about entertaining us all the time. We're fine with you just being honest. Hope things workout somehow so you can see nicole more! love you too bye!

[@flyingthenest]

Loving the edit as always Ben :)

[@harryfarnon7956]

i love all of your videos every single day you inspire me to live doing what i want to do when i want to, thank you for making such amazing content and inspiring everyone

[@TenEightyUK]

"You can't jump in the river" wow fun squasher Ben Brown

[@benbrown]

TenEighty UK lol the tide was out he would've broken his legs!

[@charlie-sk8bm]

thankyou so much Ben you defiantly inspire me to be more of an open person and to really check the perspectives of things when I'm in a shit situation. stay strong man!

[@jakebarr7945]

Genuinely wish I was sp he's so cool

[@Kelsihartjee]

I just realized i never really commented on your videos. But i just wanted to say that i never get bored watching your videos, i'm still entertained! (: Seeing you live your life to the fullest inspires me to do that too. I've had some hard times, but somehow you pulled me through with your positive vibes. Thankyou for everything you've done. Keep inspiring people, like you inspired me .

[@KattJarvis]

Aw Ben, that last little segment about Nicole really had me, but you two will be together again sooner than you think as time seems to fly by when you're having fun.

[@nralopez]

It's okay man. As the saying goes, "absence makes the heart grow fonder." It's going to feel really good when you guys see each other again! And love the vlog man. Not repeatitive at all. It's a breath of fresh air actually!

[@cjp1828]

£17 for the cinema jeeezz

[@scotttaylor4682]

Alice Houldcroft £6?! Where do you live in England? And was that adult price?

[@vladimiragembicka4964]

Charlie Probert I thought it was £17 for two people, then I looked again it was for one jeeeezzz. Where i'm from it about £17 for two people .

[@jacobsmith3290]

Lel £3 for me

[@vladimiragembicka4964]

Woow that is crazy

[@cjp1828]

Alice Houldcroft Yeah but 17 pounds! That's the price of 2 adult tickets in any other cinema.

[@idanhelora7228]

ben,stay doing it so u're right. a lot of love xx

[@mercedesfil]

Bruuh!! It's a pleasure to watch your vlogs every day and it never gets boring!! You and Casey give me daily motivation! Thank you! :)

[@teodorainc.7516]

After 5 months of constantly watching your vlogs I'm finally up to date with them! You've actually changed my entire mentality on life and inspired me to start my blog so thanks for that! Keep up the good work

[@MakingithappenVlog]

Before becoming an entrepreneur and vlogger I worked as a Project Manager for one of the biggest companies in the world and it meant me traveling for months at a time - if anything I think this made my girlfriend and I grow a tighter bond and it made us value the time spent together even more :) and now we work together and travel the world together :)

[@davidklein3233]

I've really been liking the London vlogs, remind me of the times when you steve and louis just used to hang out every day and go to giro!

[@SamMansbridge]

£17 for a cinema ticket holy shit! Great vlog as always Ben!

[@SamMansbridge]

Yeah I guess, I pay £16 a month to watch unlimited films in Cineworld haha

[@ToastediPod]

Alice Houldcroft Dude why reply to every single comment with something copy and pasted??

[@sebastiandietl5937]

Always so funny to see how excited Alfie gets when you come home! :D

[@OllieHutt]

Ben, keep doing what you are doing at the moment, the Stars will line up for you and Nicole eventually

[@bokeflo]

A fun day in London. I love London, can't wait to travel there again.

[@TubaBuddha]

SO glad Alf Dog looks so much better. Far easier to keep clean and parasite free. As well as being far cooler for Alffie in the summer.. He may look far different than you have gotten accustomed to, but it will be much easier to take care of him as he presently is.

[@isabelgarbett5248]

Big love and hugs Ben keep the positive vibes flowing x

[@nathanmascall3635]

When I think of KZbin, the image that comes into my head is Ben brown xD Keep working hard on the clothing line and continue to film and edit amazing daily vlogs man :)

[@fraserpitkethly2265]

ah, shame about not being able to see Nicole for a while, Ben but you always go on about staying positive and i think you should treat this time as a gresat opportunity for your loving relationship to get stronger because we all know that when your away from someone you love for a long time, then when you finally see them, then the amount of love for them will be off the charts

[@danasalinger5247]

Love your vlogs! Just bought Jeremy Loops tickets for when he's in Ann Arbor, Michigan! So excited for it! Hope you enjoy our state that looks like a mitten.

[@BlondiKit]

Stay strong, Nicole and Ben! You two are just brilliant together. Lots of love from Germany 👌❤️

[@jacksjournal8037]

Imagine if Ben surprised Nicole like Casey Neistat and Jack Harries did with Candice and Ella Grace, not saying that its going to happen as I know that its quite hard e.g fares, expenses, time etc and I appreciate the fact that they both work super hard! They are both very inspirational in my life! Pitch perfect is a brilliant movie, seen it Friday! I WISH BEN COULD DO A MEET UP IN BELFAST/NORTHERN IRELAND

[@egornaumov9539]

I think it's pretty hard, making a surprise like that being a daily blogger xD

[@markmountjoy3293]

Not going to happen as Ben Won't copy casey ideas and content like jack does not saying Ben wouldn't surprise her but he wouldn't make it into a surprise movie

[@hersheybarsam]

Aww Ben, long distance can be tough and I'm sorry it's got you down. You and Nicole are so cute together and it makes me sad to see you sad. I know it can be hard, I've been in one for a little over a year now. But you just gotta push through and when you do get to see her I know you'll make the most of it. Keep your head up man. Sending love and good vibes.

[@TheSilverspiesJournal]

Always love watching your vlogs - regardless of whether you're getting up to exciting things or not! So sorry to hear you won't see Nicole for longer than you thought, I'm sure you'll find a way to cross paths :)

[@kenzie-anne]

Sorry to hear your not gonna see Nics for a while, im gonna miss seeing her in the vlogs! You do inspire me to do more with my life and im grateful that ive found your vlogs. Actually one of the things on my list of things id like to do one day, is to meet you and Nicole and say thanks in person!

[@XxB3TT5Y]

Definition of Ben Brown-----Genuinely Such An Incredible And Inspirational Human

[@maebhmcmanus9392]

You're one of my biggest inspirations for film and photography

[@Rennieeeful]

Always entertained Ben! I love seeing positivity and productivity! It's great! It reminds me to do that when I get out of the cycle of it! :)

[@URPEEP17]

I really enjoy the London vlogs.

[@Toastyy.design]

17 quid for the cinema? Crazy! Also Islington on a Sunday is the best.

[@entropy1650]

Alice Houldcroft why are you replying with the same comment to comments about the price??!

[@MikeDewey]

I've wanted to check out Victoria Falls for a while, good luck in Zambia

[@jimp514]

Loving the transitions Ben

[@TraceyJackson33]

Hey hey ben, Are you alright bit worried you were so down on Monday ,you had no vlog on Tuesday ? Just want to say you bring me so much joy and happiness when I watch your blogs each day, Some days I'm layed up with my back and you really are a funny guy.. And SP is super cool Take care Ben Piece love happiness And remember to give hugs From Tracey in Newcastle

[@Iwan1011ch]

Ohh that guy was playing our country's national instrument the steel pan awesome 🇹🇹 I love that!

[@MS794e]

Its not getting repetitive at all! =) Was fun to see you have a chilled day and hope it works out somehow with the dates to see Nicole.

[@cambond2711]

SHOULD'VE SEEN MAD MAX!

[@vladimiragembicka4964]

I feel for you and Nicole, It must be difficult knowing you may not see her for a while, it's bad enough for me and my partner when we spend time apart for few weeks , but months :( Hope you work something out x

[@grindlemarka]

Love You, SP, Nicole; wish your plans could sync better, but it is what it is. You guys seem so 'balanced', which is refreshing. Hope you all have a great 'Summer Season' in your travels. Enjoy your Vlogs so much!! =Maine=

[@Anaffair2remember1]

You're my favourite youtuber. Love you Ben 😘 your vlogs are great no matter what you're doing. I like the "ordinary days" we all have them! Xx

[@strangesaturdayx]

I'm new in your channel and I don't know how much you see Nicole but I just want to encourage you. I'm with my boyfriend since 4 years ago and except for the summers we are usually 3-4 (or even 6 months in 2 occasions) months without seeing each other. But we talk a lot, play video games... You only have to get used to it and you will know her in some beautiful different ways. xx ^^ keep going this way with your videos

[@junerks]

Loving this bromance so much :) Matt is really a cutie! can i just keep you? :)

[@D_S_88]

Aww Ben, you sounded genuinely sad at the end of the vlog. Only being able to see Nicole for 3 days in the next 4 months is kind of tough but I'm sure things will work themselves out. Besides, from what you've show us (brownies) it seems like you guys have the strength to pull through this "season" in your lives. Just keep doing your thing!

[@emilyhanks5163]

You made me so jealous! I really want to see Pitch Perfect 2! Maybe when I get back from vacation... xx

[@jonnielkf]

cheer up ben! time will pass before you know it and you'll be back together again. thanks for always thinking about the viewers, we appreciate you too man.

[@Deemjuhh12]

You INSPIRE me Ben! Thanks for everything, loads of love from Amsterdam :-)

[@JessB1995x]

Waah don't like seeing you down, sucks you won't see Nicole for ages! Sending hugs to you both because I know how hard that must be for you guys. On a lighter note, loving your London and home vlogs! Keep up the awesome work dude, much love :)

[@alancruzr]

Ben! I have also a LDR and you know what, I have learned that the physical distance makes you really appreciate what you have, and even if you're only gonna see her for four Make it count!! :) Cheers from Mexico 🇲🇽

[@pyrohydro909078]

Ben you should get back on the water soon! I'd love to see that in the vlog!

[@ChinchillupaGuy]

That guy passed out on the train had me rolling! haha he's probably going to need a neck brace tomorrow.

[@pipw]

awwh Ben :( your lil face, Skype is a wonderful thing! you guys worked through it before you moved out there. keep strong!

[@melmaer6660]

Hi Ben, you entertain us always, just with your human beeing. Keep going like that! And because of Nicole, yeah it will be tough that you wont see each other that often in the next four month, but when you see each other again, then you will be so lucky and the relationship will be more stronger. This is my thought ;-)

[@emsfrans160]

Seriously don't know how you and Nicole do it, you must have something very special x

[@alwaysuseless]

I love it: 301+ views and 1,161 thumbs up (including mine). KZbin just can't keep up with Mr. Ben Brown. And yes, I just made a similar comment on Casey's vlog a few minutes ago. KZbin can't keep up with Casey, Ben, or Louis. I really like getting to see more of London without having to book a flight. So 17£ = $26.61 for 1 matinee movie ticket. Seems kind of pricey (from this small-town boy's point of view). Thanks for the vlog. That's really sad how little you'll see Nicole in the next 4 months. We all want to give you & Nicole a hug.

[@alexwarnerfilms]

Nah dude it's £17 each over $50 for both of them :0

[@alwaysuseless]

Alex Warner Kevin P You're both right. I was thrown off by the fact that at 5:00 the ticket machine reads: "2 ADULT total £17.00". You have to agree that's misleading. It's clear, though, from the entire sequence 4:55 - 5:02 that the machine should have said "total £34.00". And that's $53.24 as of a minute ago. Not only is that pricey (imo), but it's the cost of 6 months of streaming Netflix. Forgive me for doing this, but I'm going to edit (i.e., correct the blooper in my comment).

[@alwaysuseless]

Kevin P I see your reply in G+ notification but not on the YT comment page. Also, when I click View all 4 replies, there are only 3 replies. Did you post your comment & then delete it?

[@alwaysuseless]

Kevin P You mean popcorn, soda, candy, valet parking, & a massage. ;-)

[@KaylaSlatt]

the quality of this vlog was great

[@TheDominosSeries]

Friendship Goals!

[@kamzdartiste6827]

Can't believe I was less than a mile away and I missed you guys

[@alicewz9869]

You should have been to Mad Max. It is absolutely incredible, I'm sure you would have loved it as well !

[@Miko-gx6wq]

Watching your vlogs whilst starving is not the one dude! ;)

[@justaisha3856]

lol, who saw the baby doll on top of the breakfast club 2:19 kinda freaky

[@liciaisme]

I'm so sorry you'll be away from Nicole for so long, I really hope some how you find a way to see each other more, but if not at least you two know you're strong enough to withstand the distance = ) I lived in London for 4 months last fall and seeing you back there is nice, I miss that city.

[@johnmfan]

I'm sorry if I missed this but, how long will you be staying in UK? Love your vlogs man! Keep it up :)

[@myrtolefk]

sad that you won't be seeing nicole for all that time :( also don't worry about the vlogs "not being as interesting" as you say because they're still inspiring me to be more productive.. have a nice day Ben :)

[@alliefasanella]

love you ben! sorry about the nicole situation - that SUCKS! you guys will make it work. i'm really enjoying your vlogs, even the less intrepid ones :)

[@ffloeww]

You and Nicole have your whole lives to spend together :)

[@fraserhawkshaw]

Haha! SP is brilliant! Awesome Vlog again man!

[@ThatAshHunter]

woah. cinema prices in London are crazy, I watched Pitch Perfect 2 on the day it came out for £5 in Leeds lol

[@FredsAttic]

I understand you so much about what you feel about Nicole :( On next week I move from France to Vancouver and my girlfriend won't come before early october :( I'll be totally alone in a different country I never been before. I can't wait to see and order some clothes from you !

[@maliburide]

It's nice to get to know Secret Pocket a bit more!

[@DavidSchueller]

Hey sliceofmatt Matt Miszczak what kind of sunglasses are those? Do they have wood arms?

[@t45hAa]

Dedicated brownie :) big love for Mr Ben Brown!

[@lonesheep27]

I'm so sorry about not being able to see Nicole. That's so heartbreaking. I know you two will make it work.

[@PhoebeGrigor]

You're calling it coffendong and that makes me abnormally happy :')

[@BenRoganFilms]

Love that escalator shot at 1:22 :D

[@riversong4891]

There was literally a cinema like 5 minutes away from your coffee 😂 *****

[@tristankermode3796]

Sweet video man! that intro, did you make that in after affects?

[@whereisGabriela]

" become a Brownie " omg i just spotted this, made me smile so much! :D

[@oscarvelez13]

Hey Ben since you posted the Instagram post of Calgary, you should check out Calgary Stampede in July! You'll love it !

[@Rukiakun]

I just watched pitch perfect 2 yesterday too! And wow it's expensive to watch movies in London. It's about 12-13 Canadian here for an adult. And we have half off Tuesday's too.

[@samways3294]

I've been away from my gf for last 4 months whilst I've been studying in the US, you have been a great inspiration and motivator for me to be positive and be a good human in general which in turn has really helped us deal with long distance situation so big hugs and love for that, wish i could do the same for you (Virtual hug) :)

[@ChloeDoesFitness]

You should do a time-lapse of you and Sp working, it adds to the vlogs. :-) just a thought. 😌

[@altlo_3209]

Ahaha I'm laughing so much at the guy on the train ahahah
