@@simonelliot3712 it could have been but people enjoy more behind the scenes with Ben stuff. Maybe a separate edit just for this part of it. Could be good for just highlights of glacier activity.
I have so much respect for you, Ben. Such a humble, caring person. I'm glad Mother Nature waited for your safety. She is truly a powerful, amazing thing. Thanks for sharing your journey. Much love from Washington State.
Thank God! I’ve got chills. You took the best perspective on the outcome, and no matter which way you slice it this was one INCREDIBLE adventure. Adventures like these change your life forever. So glad things worked out the way they did. As a kayaker I know the feeling of being in flow with nature and things are butter, to the sudden struggle for life in an instant when something goes wrong. Sometimes looking back on the situation you just made it out of things feel surreal, like you know you were on the edge of death but now you are warm and safe in your beanie and it just feels a bit strange. Call it blessed, call it luck, call it skill, it’s a feeling that sticks with you forever when you know you were just about dead. Respect nature, respect life, be safe and take wisdom from the experience. You da man Mr. Gravy
Well I'm glad everyone survived with no major injuries and that Blair caught an epic wave! Would be really depressing if you all missed it. As my very good friend Steve used to say "Some days you eat the bear. Other days the bear eats you." Sorry you missed it Ben but good on you finding a way to look at it that gives you peace! Your little buddy Dennis sure was happy to see you (and I'm sure Jordan too!).
This was a truly epic journey! My only complaint is BE MORE CAREFUL!! I can't be the only one that was a little worried when you didn't post for a couple days, but to now see how close you actually came to disaster is even worse. So glad you're alive to tell the tale. For the dream!!!
Absolutely mental! Love your adventures, take care of yourself Ben! Nature can be sketchy at times. We all want to see more of you, thanks for brightening our days!
NO DOUBT, HUH BRO... (LIKE MOST DEFINITELY DIVINE INTERVENTION GAVE THEM A BIG BREAK, JUST NOT THE ONE THEY WANTED TO RIDE!!! BUT, REGARDLESS, THEY CAME, THEY SAW, THEY STILL KICKED ASS!!!)... BLESSINGS, BRO!!!!
When I saw u that close to the glacier at the top of the video, I said to myself ur a fool. U have no idea how dangerous that is. Glad u got out of there.
Every day I am thankful that you are alive, and I am thankful that event came 20 minute after you were out of the water. There are a lot prayers coming from many of the your supporters. The Earth was clearly listening on that day and luckily we have you here to inspire us, and show us a world many of us have never seen. Awesome series!!
Nice series man! Wish he coulda took you guys to an actually beach with waves though damn, like the whole time you guys stayed by those cliffs? He couldnt of took you guys to an actual beach break somwhere, or atleast pull ya's behind the boat for some towing?idk lol (i would have lostmymind with no waves at all though living on that boat like that. yea no thanks lool).
Absolutely gnar gnar on the gravy train epic way to push daisies Glad you guys are still stoking Best video to date and there was minimal surf action. Crazy bra
There is nothing better than coming home to a happy dog that misses you and a happy wife who's happy you're home. Only thing better is having kids also there to greet you... is it time to expand the Gravy Clan? Naomi Thrash needs a cousin
Wow that was a close call with that wave so glad you guys weren't in that spot when it hit!! This was the most epic trip I'm glad it had a good ending!
Where were the Orcas and were you ever scared that they would appear while you were in the water looking like a big juicy seal??? Glad all turned out ok. I was waiting to see that large fin. 😳
That trip is awesome. The crew was epic. The mindset to do that is off the charts.. like the crabbers up there say... some people watch what happens.. some people MAKE things happen. Some people say what the #**# just happened..... nice epic job 👏
Well bro, I just happened upon this on RUclips today, Monday, May 29th, 2023. And OHHH MY DAYS, BRO!!! I was stupefied by the majesty and awe of Alaska's beauty, and completely stunned you all had the biggest balls of them all and threw caution to the wind and REALLY WENT FOR LIFE'S ADVENTURES... KUDOS TO ALL.. THEN... (Wait for it...)... Y'all were given a pardon by Mother Nature (The Lord too, man!) and were finally introduced to Alaska's profoundly brutal, underestimated, staggering magnificence!!!! WOW!!! LIKE, FUCKIN' WOW!!! 😳😳😱😱🤯🤯!! THANK GOD THIS ENDING DIDN'T MIMICK "CALL OF THE WILD" BRO... INDEED!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!! AMEN!!! I subscribed, and I salute all of you!!!! Much love and blessings to all your courageous crew cronies!!! GLAD Y'ALL SURVIVED THIS TRIP!!!! ✌️✌️✌️🙏🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇😇🫶🫶🫶🫶🫵🫵💪
Another way for mother nature to take U out in the water. Excellent photography and respect for having a go ,U sure do things a bit close to the edge for me ,I'm not even gonna pretend I could travel there and attempt that. So glad U guys got out unscathed. Without the pun that was pretty Kool.
…and he lived to tell the tale… ( Thank God…who made the universe…BTW ). Just about as EPIC as it can get Ben. Novelty score off the charts. Just as stoked as you were to see Blair get that ride. You should have a rule though… nobody goes toward the glacier without a full wetsuit on ( for next time JMHO ) Dream On! Cheers, John and God Bless you and the crew of the Milo…FTW!
Great series. Did you ever get a chance to sit down with the Captain and crew to do a podcast. Love to hear their story of how they ended up doing what they are doing.🤙
100% at a minimum one of your group would have died in that wave. Most likely by being pinned under massive icebergs after getting washed off their iceberg. You dodges a huge bullet by sheer dumb luck. Good lesson here, never underestimate just how violent Mother Nature can be.
Come on RUclips let’s get these videos pushed out to the world! This has been one of the best series I’ve seen in a long time! 🤙
Let’s go RUclips 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Should be more National Geo screw RUclips.
No doubt. Such a great idea with someone who really knows how to do it.
It's just too long. This could have been condensed down into 2 minutes.

Just finished the video. Hoooooly heavy, if you're randomly reading this comment, it's worth the full watch through

Best surf blog by far. Well done Ben, you deserve every success that comes your way. Truly epic.
Party Arch Wave… WHAT!!!??? That was cool! Cheers, John 🌊👍🏄♂️🏄♂️
Ben gravvy navy for the win
Usually I just fast forward to the surfing, but not this time, the entire video was rivetting😊😊😊

You have to go to the spot where @CaseyWillax went to!! The Mentawais? Might still be there... It's warm there too!!
