A few months ago myself, Andrew James, Cuong Hoang, and 5 other amazing travellers ventured to Iceland on a Journey starting from Reykjavik around the ever changing, dream like coastline of the island.

Being Strangers at first, we explored some of the most beautiful, and rugged places the island had to offer, sharing memories and special moments that you couldn't repeat if you tried. While experiencing the greats, we also experienced the lows, but turned things around to make the tough times some of the best memories we have of this land, and before we realised, these moments took us from strangers, to best friends.

Massive thank you to Zhiyun for making this trip possible and allowing me to use their new Weebill S on the trip, one of the lightest gimbals iv'e ever used. All stabilised ground footage was captured with the Weebill S

    This is not a video. This is a masterpiece!!
  • @songpan7114
    This proves that great travel film doesn't need EDM music.
  • @AndreiJikh
    The difference between a master cinematographer and a masterpiece... is a story worth hearing. This is a masterpiece
  • @JRAlli
    such a treat seeing how you push yourself with storytelling and effects. such a cool story Benn, glad you got to see iceland and how amazing it is :)
  • @bipulbasak8001
    Dude thats amazing. The starting sequence got me like : "Is that even possible" & the ending like : "Why not!" Great attention to details.
  • @JamieFenn
    Your attention to detail seriously incredible. Love the way you tell a story. Cheers mate!
  • @chaq_ye
    1:31 minutes in and I'm like "No wonder you take so long to edit". The attention to detail is insane. Plus putting pictures into a 3D space and then simulating that camera movement really takes time.
  • @motomonk1321
    Whoa!! Did i just see an incredible Hollywood adventure movie trailer!!? Wow...such incredible visuals and storytelling.
  • @JasmineLipska
    Absolutely loved the whole video Benn! Your story telling is incredible, especially at the beginning- it’s like watching a mini movie. I don’t know how to explain it but your videos always make us feel something more than any other travel video out there 🙌
  • @andrewjmes
    Absolutely unreal Benn! You're creativity and originality never ceases to amaze me! Such a good trip and such good memories :)
  • How beautifully you told a story of three days in 7 mins! You are an inspiration brother !
  • @JamieTK
    Waiting for the Benn TK X Sam Kolder collab...
  • @DigitalDre
    Benn, your after effects skills are next level! Your transitions are the most thoughtful and most spectacular ones too and the most important thing, your story telling is incredibly good. And you know what you are authentic. Thats something most of the other travel videographers aren´t, 90% are copying sam kolder and being original and authentic is the most important essence of travel videos. You know my dream would be to once in my life travel with you, not because I want to grow my travel channel, not because of the fame. I would really love to be on a trip with such a inspiring person, someone thats constantly pushing the limits of creativity. I know the chance is small of you seeing this is small and reacting to this even smaller, but if I don´t try, there can´t be a chance.
  • @mattmason1432
    That was actually really irritating how good that was. Hats off on a phenomenal video - your best yet!!!
  • @WeR804
    7 minutes 42 seconds never passed this quick for me. I literally got lost into it.
  • @erikhedenfalk
    Cuddle up under a blanket next to a fireplace!! It’s storytime with Benn!! Enjoyed every second of it my dude :)
  • @FinnSnowVlogs
    Benn you captured the very best of my home. The magical nature scenery and of course the bad weather.. Great story!
  • @pranjalgram
    I have never been so amazed, speelbound, blown away, and inspired at the same time by a travel video. Calling it anything short of a masterpiece would be underappreciation, and an injustice to the amount of work he put in this. Much love!
  • @simonmonty7171
    What impresses me the most is that you are part of the few creators that invent and re-invent film making... your transitions, your color grading, your story telling skills and so much more are just on another level. You create and all the rest we try to imitate but it's never quite as good as what you come up with. You sir, are part of the greats.
