i'm watchin...i see a man with a fairly foul mouth, & an antagonistic attitude towards law & order! he sure did get thin in the end! (:D i hope we'll all see him again One Day! (:D we hope he found salvation in the end, now that his body & his euphoric substances finally have let him down!
It was great meeting you Ben, i have heard alot about you both good and bad but my memories of you are all good, we will miss you much, rip dear friend lots of luv
@MyyIdol Errr pardon? I hadn't heard of this chap before the news story broke he'd died.... apparently he was well known for exposing himself and abusing people. I see nothing iconic about that whatsoever. He had mental problems and huge drug and booze addictions, and from what I have found while doing some research, shunned help again and again. A very sad life indeed....but not one to look up too.
@MichaelBurton1977 is an ignorant, fat mouthed wanker who has less sense then ben had dollars. You don't become homeless in NZ on accident or would supplying him money in anyway have help him. Hes my mother in laws brother and they have tried plenty of times to bring him home, but he chose not to, he lived the way he wanted not the families. Keep your ignorant comments to the retards part of youtube where you've probably posted a video of yourself
@NYWAORCANZ lol, but some of us have no king but Jesus! (:D in fact, the majority of new zealanders, which is why this is such a cool place to be! spending your "dole" on weed is stupid, & being a rebel without a good cause is a waste of your life! sad. i hope he finally escaped his demons!
Far you guys are all stupid. They're a public nuisance, they deserve to be in jail. How are they making this world any better? They look like shit, smell like shit, treat people like shit. What are tourists going to think if they come here and we have homeless people like these guys all over the streets. You think they're going to want to come back? No! They should start cleaning these guys up, set them up on a good track, or send them to jail. I don't care.
@Korathable ...fck you you ignorant kent just because they chose to be different and rebel against the already fuked up system they are harassed, abused and arrested buy the police this shows that true freedom is long gone, the only people who are concerned about tourists are greedy and only want the tourists money these fellas are not harming any one whilst you lie in bed all warm they are freezing out in the rain because idiots like you wont and don't give them a chance.
@Korathable What is "deserve"? Shall I decide YOU "deserve" to be in jail for how you choose to live? If you don' tare for how they live, then DON'T LOOK. There are 359 other points on the compass, mate, and I rather doubt they're coming over to where YOU stay and condemning YOUR choices.
"Good" track. Don't you see your judgmental word choices? They're not like you. That does NOT mean they don't deserve liberty and to be left alone.
Not sure why he's upset that his photo was taken when he was asleep. If you're on public property then you're public fodder. If you want privacy, get a room.
He is a Fucktard mental that has the mental abillity of a fucken coke can. he needs to be cared for in a home or a kennel. he wanks off in front of people.
@MichaelBurton1977 No, mum gained custody over me when i was six and we moved to christchurch. I dont think i am a shit person, i gave him money every christmas and on his birthday. Do you know what? im proud of him. he stands up for what he belives in Please dont call me those things. my dad died yesterday, cant you have sympathy?
Since when was wearing rags, smelling like poo, and being abuse to other members of the public illegal? Surely the Treaty allows for this kind of thing!
this guy pulled his dick out and tossed off in front of my 7 and 10 yr old girls. keep the public safe he needs a padded cell. any body that thinks differently must really have fuck all to do and should really find another chip for their shoulder. leave the man where he gets his 3 meals a day.
@MichaelBurton1977 7 and 9 year old daughters or 7 and 10? I've never heard of him doing anything like that before and considering you can't make your mind up about the age of your own kids that affects your credibility here greatly.
@MichaelBurton1977 Never debated that it didn't happen, I said it's out of his character from what I've read about him and added to that the fact that your children's ages at the time of the incident differs, would obviously affect your credibility. Don't throw your dummy out of the pram, I just made a point that if you want people to believe you, you might not want to change facts in a double post and be consistent.
This guy pull's his dick out and wanks off in front of my 7 and 9 year old daughter. anybody that thinks this guy is sane is a weirdo themselves. it is cruel to leave him out of the nut shop and rude to the people that reside near the guy.Donald smith you are wrong and must have a chip on your shoulder. get a job
Ha they got stuck in welli i went there to stay 1 nite gt stuck to wondered around all nite tryn to find accomadation till 7.00 am had money but everythin was full even backpackers i think auckland is way better an dont know why welli was voted 2nd best city in world Gay
@VenusFireSnake Aucklands a fucking shit hole, full of ignorant wankers and it doesnt even fell like your in New Zealand it feels like your in Japan or some shit
Without blanket man wellington wouldnt be what it is, the law needlessly persecutes him in some crazy endevour to uniform NZ in to a mindless bunch of couch potatoes. Everytime I see blanket man he lights up my day.
Just watching the doco now, it's way better than this teaser vid (which pretty much just shows him in angry blanket man mode). In the doco he seems like a super cool guy. Edit out the swearing (I empathise with his frustration), add some more footage of him being wise/humble. It'll win him way more fans :)
Despite two psychiatrists testifying that he is in good health Brother aka Blanket Man has been imprisoned by district court Judge Paul Barber to Ward 27 at Wellington Hospital for a psychiatric treatment. They have tried this tactic in the past and failed. But this time Judge Paul Barber used his judicial powers to lock him up despite the evidence to the contrary. The system is unwilling to engage with people who have different ideas about society and the status quo. FREE BROTHER!
I love the way Blanket man recognises people on the street ! I was in Welli left then returned 6 months later and he still gave me the trademark look of recognistion...legend !
i rember my dad gave him a smoke and he was like I dnt want dat because dad was kinda drunk but yea and people say he smokes weed im jst saying not in a bad way :)
I think blanket man is cool. But the other guys a bit of a trouble maker. If you are from Wellington and you dont know blanket man your not from Wellington. This man must be the most famous guy in Wellington.
Get a job you fukn hori bum.
