Someone dropped a fabric stink bomb in one of my teacher's coffee mugs and he gave a detention to the whole class sinse noone knew who did it exept the man (or women) who did it ;)
I love the way how's me made up his own fantasy world with all his characters, it makes me feel like I'm playing Dungeons and Dragons but the fights are his videos instead (yes ik that probably made no sense)
What if Benjamin is actually a reference to Benjamin Button? Remember that movie about the kid that aged backwards and was born an old man? Benjamin is meant to be 8 years old, but he appears much older.

Benjamin is a 90s kid in elementary school with an Atari shirt and a Pokemon colored hat that says stranger things so he's a time traveler. Edit: Thanks for all the love 🤘🏼🤘🏼 and i realize it’s ashes hat now 😂 i never really watched pokémon but thanks again, this is the most likes i’ve ever had on a comment. 🔥
Wait a minute, 8 year old kids dont have beards! Who are you? I bet your name isnt Benjamin, its probably Gregory from the Cardboard Confederacy!!! You aren't stealing my secrets!!! Shit, i cant find my tinfoil hat! Where is it?!? I wont tell you anything!!! *Falls asleep from stress*
Your acting ability is mind-blowing. Like as this character I can't see you as the professor, or corvus, or just a guy dressing up in different outfits, you seem to literally become the characters, and that's amazing and beautiful.
YOU'RE A GOOD MAN DOING A GREAT JOB! IF THE WORLD HAD MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU, IT WOULDN'T BE SUCH A ROTTEN PLACE! MAY YOUR HIGH SPIRITS & GOLDEN ATTITUDE SHINE FOR ALL TIME. LOVE IT!
Rotten? You need to see a psychiatrist This world is full of creative learning and is the best experience to over look Take rift for example. He bares the fine fruit of our society
This characters and all others were thought of years before but he took inspiration for some of the more recent characters "benjanin" and there backstorys
This is what I really love about Rift's content, I can't think of another genre other than asmr on RUclips that offers this role play type interaction with the viewer. But at the same time being so relaxing and enjoyable. He's really used this format to create a really immersive story arc. And I love coming back too his videos. He is truly a very talented creator.
Well technically he has been doing this multiple characters before split but taking Hedwig from split fits perfect for his channel with all the other characters hes created.
The attention to detail in rifts acting is something to behold, nails establishing character mannerisms as well as keeping in character over the length of the entire video is impressive, great work my friend, glad to have stumbled across this again
Benjamin/Oliver always cheers me up and calms me down when i can‘t sleep because i‘m too sad. My boyfriend a I fight a lot these days and Benjamin really helps me stop crying. Just like now.
Little Benjamin/ Oliver has an awesome taste in movies! Dark City is easily my favorite of the bunch (and my favorite movie of all time)! Evil Dead 2 and Let the Right One In are really good, too!
I can’t explain why but I have super bad anxiety, and your videos really help me with it. I had to pull you out during class one time and it totally helped. I can’t thank you enough for what you’re doing! ❤️❤️❤️
You know i see people keep having these comments about his vids being wierd or even silly but thats why i like them because The thing with him is that most other asmr artists try something simple like brushes picks and random household objects on a simple head Mic while this guy puts a little bit of 'flair' into it by making it interesting with stuff like chutulu,robots,plague doctors,etc and not the boring simple regular routine so it makes asmr interesting while its relaxing and i think thats just awesome
Woah, a unoriginal comment about going to bed because a asmr uploaded? Guess it's time to go comment something about unoriginality of others commenting a comment from years ago, that no one cares about, and my life is pretty sad, #edgy memes.
One of my favorite characters. Your acting and voices are very impressive for one guy. I’d love to see you be given a budget to make a full movie out of this.
for some reason, this feels like the most brilliant thing e.r. has ever done. the character is ... flawless... and effective asmr as well. thanks, rift, for the smiles, laughs, good feelings, relaxation/tingles.
Hello thank you for making this I have never had a chance to say thank you so here it is Thank you so much for making me relaxed and have a good night sleep
It's less of a series and more of a background narrative which he's been doing for years which includes a variety of different characters and locations. Hope that answers your question.
Bob Stephen The short of it: It’s not so much an episodic series. Im a fan of Lovecraft’s works as well as various films. The Sanitarium is a place that these characters and the viewer inhabits. More or less..
I know you probably wont see this Eph, but i just wanted to say that these regular videos have been a godsend recently. Work has been giving me anxiety, and a regular friendly face in the evening (when the anxiety is worst) has been very relieving. Thank you for your efforts sir.
There has never been an unlovable person named Benjamin. Ever. This is no exception. All Benjamins are beautiful people. If your name is Benjamin we all love you.
Yknow I’ve been here so long that videos from 6 years ago feel like they happened a year ago at most. Can’t believe how long I’ve listened to this mans voice
Amazing that you've been able to craft an entire universe simply through these videos, relaxing us all the while, so gracefully. Still a huge fan, been watching since ever 2012.
I desperately need someone to make a story summary of the videos, cause each one is so long, at this point it would take so long for me to catch up, but this story seems so genius and interesting, I wanna understand
I love how all of your characters intertwine I feel like I'm watching a movie or a series and it also reminds me of the film split .I'm always waiting to see which character is going to emerge ☺️ you are probably the best asmrtist I've watched ,I love it ♥️
I know I'm very much late, but this video is just very adorable. I love his shyness and how he calls his backpack a big boy backpack, it's just so cute. ❤❤❤
This is the purest, most kindhearted character that I have seen in my whole life.
Truer Words Hath Never Been Spoken
Prosecutor Spade Agreed.
We must protect this one from Margret's garden

Interesting how being buried in Margarette's garden is seen as a punishment by some residents of the asylum, and as a relaxing activity by others.

No he stole joey the race car driver

Why does this small child have a beard?
Rogal Dorn 🤫

He’s only a small child on the inside
MPD
Omg Benjamin is adorable
Busy B ASMR do you think that uncle E should be an actor
xXZeAsianXx yes
Why thank you
Thanks
You mean Oliver? ;)
And the rift world grows tighter with brand new character Benjamin (please let him return for another video)
Reagan Monroe Oliver was throwing out a lotta lore
Reagan Monroe of course he’ll be back!
Well boy have I got news for you!
@EphemeralRift we get Benjamin every 2 years and it's getting close to it since the last one! Are we getting a 4th?
Would be cool
Benjamin is a 90s kid in elementary school with an Atari shirt and a Pokemon colored hat that says stranger things so he's a time traveler. Edit: Thanks for all the love 🤘🏼🤘🏼 and i realize it’s ashes hat now 😂 i never really watched pokémon but thanks again, this is the most likes i’ve ever had on a comment. 🔥
It's not a Pokemon colored stranger things hat it's the hat that Dustin (Gatten) has in the show
The Rifts are wonderful for time travel afterall, here in Arkham Sanitarium.
Not to mention the beard
didn’t atari and pokémon come out in the 90’s? also it’s dustin’s hat from stranger things lol
atari might’ve came out in the 80’s lol but still
Benjamin and Hedwig would have interesting conversations together
Wait a minute, 8 year old kids dont have beards! Who are you? I bet your name isnt Benjamin, its probably Gregory from the Cardboard Confederacy!!! You aren't stealing my secrets!!! Shit, i cant find my tinfoil hat! Where is it?!? I wont tell you anything!!!
*Falls asleep from stress*
They probably put the childs brain in a different body like they always do in Arkham, remember Ethan Pineapple?
But that means that the Cardboard Confederacy can do brain transplants
Oh yeah.....
Okay then, last I checked he was just going through puberty early
Falls asleep from stress....... if I could do that I wouldn’t need asmr
I'd love to see a bloopers video from ER, but just keep doing what you're doing man!
superstan 110 ER doesnt have bloopers, you ignorant prole
Hunter Maggert have you seen the dream team bloopers?
Look at the ASMR face sketch video if you wanna see what his bloopers PROBABLY look like lol
Yeeessss
When he said ”And even fruits and vegetables” i laughed so hard only to realise that they talked so that’s why he was scared of them. Im sad now.
My heart is melting, and my eyelids are getting heavier. ER is the best in the business, no one will ever get close to his level!
this my favorite scene in Split
jorD g LMFAO
"Rejoice!"
Exactly what I was thinking
Which scene i haven't seen Split
OkayTOONS dude watch it it's great
I love all these hidden jokes and Easter eggs in each or your videos! All the videos tie together some how... very interesting and even more relaxing!
0:40 that’s not your backpack Benjamin, that’s Joel’s backpack from The Last of Us XD
RavingAssassin u thought it was the shoplifters from Video:caught by mall co0
Max Elliott well the back pack is one the character (viewer) gets from Joel. He mentions Ellie in the video too.
Your acting ability is mind-blowing. Like as this character I can't see you as the professor, or corvus, or just a guy dressing up in different outfits, you seem to literally become the characters, and that's amazing and beautiful.
I love how he tries to have this childlike speaking style and language but the accent reminds me of my relatives from Mass oops
And remembering that he's almost 50 years old kinda ruins the childish feel he's trying to put out.
Organic Fucko Now all I can hear is my relatives from Mass, too! Dang it! 😂
The English rhotic sound is actually very difficult for small children to learn, and it takes a lot of time to pick up.
I can’t even imagine how many bloopers were made during this
Plot twist: Every Rift character is a personality within the same body just like in Split.
NamComSNK I’ve had this theory for soooo long
I love it
but what about dave... i mean hes kinda a fish so like thats quite the personality
“The scavenger” video pretty much confirms this
ah yes Split the movie about split personality disorder
YOU'RE A GOOD MAN DOING A GREAT JOB! IF THE WORLD HAD MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU, IT WOULDN'T BE SUCH A ROTTEN PLACE! MAY YOUR HIGH SPIRITS & GOLDEN ATTITUDE SHINE FOR ALL TIME. LOVE IT!

OH MY GOSH HE DID A SPLIT ROLEPLAY THIS MAN IS A GENIUS.
What if they’re all split roleplays?
Its not. its just similar
Geralt of Rivia okay Mr. Semantics. It's clearly inspired by Split.
This characters and all others were thought of years before but he took inspiration for some of the more recent characters "benjanin" and there backstorys
Somehow Benjamin seems so scared and precious and small that it hurts my heart and I can barely watch the video.
Love you, Uncle E
Dude, I miss my two favorite characters, the tinkerer and the whispering chinface
Duly noted.
Lol rip
Agreed, these 2 were some of the all time best
What does everyone have against Margrets garden? I loooooove it
They gave him a beard? They’ve gone to far this time
how is it even possible that he gets better and better every video!!!!!!!!
This is great, I'd love to hear more from Benjamin. He's disarmingly friendly; really relaxing to listen to.

I recently discovered this video series and I keep coming back to rewatch. Oliver is so pure and innocent and just adorable.

Okay seeing this comment is creeping me out since I love this song and my name is Benjamin…
Holy shit ER your acting impresses me every single time you introduce/play a character :O
I love this character so much, I hope we get to see and hear from Benjamin again 😊😊😊
This is one of their best, is amazing the number of characters this man can do, I like going to sleep with this kind of effort behind ASMR
Little Benjamin/ Oliver has an awesome taste in movies! Dark City is easily my favorite of the bunch (and my favorite movie of all time)! Evil Dead 2 and Let the Right One In are really good, too!

:0 so cute
SERIOUSLY THO MAN, YOUR REALLY GOOD AT THIS!!!!
One of my favorite characters. Your acting and voices are very impressive for one guy. I’d love to see you be given a budget to make a full movie out of this.
He reminds me of Ash Katchem (pokemon) 🤣
ash katchem 💀
Ash ketchup* get it right please.
Ryan Rogers alright grim
gotta katchem all!
Thumbnail reminded me of that Tom guy from the Adam Sandler movie...I think 50 First Dates. The “hi, I’m Tom” guy.
for some reason, this feels like the most brilliant thing e.r. has ever done. the character is ... flawless... and effective asmr as well. thanks, rift, for the smiles, laughs, good feelings, relaxation/tingles.
I love this 😍 He's so adorable!
Damn, I like how your videos expand on the lore you've made. It's like reading a new chapter of a book with every video.
That’s a good mixtape, kid.
It's amazing to see asmr videos that are actually engaging and have a story. I love it.

I’ve never commented on one of your videos before, but Benjamin/Oliver is already one of my favorite people of the sanitarium next to Dave 🖤

I swear this universe rift has created would make the most emotional and greatest series of books or movies ever conceived
Is it bad that I thought of Jeffey from.the wringer 😂😂😂
Matt Simmons Same 👌
This is actually so cute I don't know why it feels so wholesome
You are a awesome actor
I can't maintain that impression for more than 30 seconds and he can do it for an hour and 2 minutes.
Reminds me of Split (Movie) :D
I desperately need someone to make a story summary of the videos, cause each one is so long, at this point it would take so long for me to catch up, but this story seems so genius and interesting, I wanna understand
Well, rip Benjamin cause i'm snitching to the doc!
This is probably the cutest video ER has made lol i love it Ben's character is adorable
Since when was ash the Pokémon champion so shy 😂
Matthew Campbell Ash grew up fast, didn't he? He's got a beard 😂
OMG same thought. Was randomly thinking of Ash xP
Read my mind
How can this man create so unique chacters? Incredible job
Is this intended to be creepy. Cause im getting a wierd vibe from Benjamin like he’s has some sort of traumatic experience
