    Not gonna lie hearing Brian's goodbye still makes me tear up, Lori and Jay are keeping Brian's love of content and we all know he's looking down with his extatic excitement we all adored. RIP Brian and thank you for the 8 years of content I watched you over❤

      I’ve watched it multiple times and makes me sob! I love and miss Brian so much but glad his LegaSea Aquarium is coming together! I had no idea it would take this long, but there’s so much they’ve been doing and are a great team!

      @mspears_bobobuddytheseniorcat Its incredible the strength and determination Lori and the crew have shown, not gonna lie but I lost a lot of indispensable people 1 every year.
      My best friend and who I called brother in 2021 to ketosis from undiagnosed diabetes
      My soul dog Harley 2022 and then my nan and best friend in the family 2023, I feel there pain and Lori and crew are the reason I'm still here from them marching through with the Legasea build while being real and showing the pain.

    Brian was such an awesome person and he definitely changed my views on reptile's.🦎🦎 I've been a fan and a follower of the reptile army for a long time and to watch Brian build up the reptarium. and now to see Lori and Jay and his team fulfill his dreams of this aquarium is absolutely amazing. And I know Brian is with them in Spirit the whole way and is proud to every single one of them from his team to all the other people who have been working so hard to make his dream a reality

    Brian was and is a hugely inspirational person! Lori has been absolutely amazing and fully committed to realizing Brian's vision. You can tell whenever you hear Lori, Brian, or anyone else involved with creating this amazing aquarium that this isn't about making money for them. They will obviously make money but this is about the love and passion for the animals!

  • @LadySythe

    It's been a year but it feels like it was just yesterday. The world lost one of the most enigmatic, passionate and wholesome animal lovers the world didn't know it had. And his good friend Dingo died recently too, who was also one of these titans of the animal conservation and knowledge. The animal world lost 3 great men but I've no doubt Steve Irwin, Brian Barczyk and Dingo Dingleman are still having the most amazing adventures together in the next world, having a blast. Lori and everyone at the Reptarium (and beyond) have shown a strength and will power to keep moving forward that amazes and inspires. They are Brian's legacy and I've no doubt in all the world that they are making him prouder than ever before. I hope one day I'll get to visit Legasea and see what such an amazing man and visionary created. Rest in peace, fellas.

    I became a fan of the late Brian about 6 years ago as I was scared of snakes I looked on RUclips to help battle my fears . Living in Wales I don’t get to see many reptiles and I learnt to love and appreciate all of his reptiles by watching his channel. He is missed all over the globe 💜👏🏻💜

    Beyond words, beyond measure, Brian's heart, his ability to connect to all of us creatures, the love he's left legitimately throughout the world, that magic lives on in each of us he touched.
    His legacy, and LegaSea, remind us of the potent potential, and the power of Positivity. Echoes in cabin...Remember, be kind to someone today, and grateful to whomever you see tomorrow. 🐊🐍🐢

    I started watching his channel when he was 1st diagnosed. I'm not a fan of snakes, but I have had a bearded dragon. Even though I don't want anything to do with snakes. I have watched every video after I was suggested his page. I did that because it helped him and Lori since they will get paid from RUclips for people watching the videos and liking the video's. When I started watching his channel the way I feel about snakes gradually changed. A few months after he was diagnosed I was comfortable enough to hold a snake for a few minutes. Not the kind of snakes they have since they have some really big snakes and I'm very much not at a place emotionally to hold a big snake. I live in Utah and I would love to see the LegaSea Aquarium some day. RIP Brian.

I follow the daily uploads on their youtube channel for the behind the scenes and they really have come such a long way! it's had ups and downs as all big tasks do, but its getting closer and closer! Please consider supporting them by watching their youtube too if you can't give to the gofundme and want to support somehow!

    I remember Brian’s last video and it brought me many tears. Seeing a clip of it again brought the tears back. I don’t know how his family and friends were able to watch it or edit it. I don’t think I could. I certainly understand losing my parents way too young. Both congestive heart failure.
