Like moths to a light, nut-jobs seem to be attracted to this scene.
There's been quite a few nutters through the Cave Clan over the years (and UER obviously).

I know people will say ignore him, don't rile them up, be bigger than him, but we tried ignoring him

He didn't make it through to actually meeting us, but... well yeah... take a look (it gets a bit sick towards the end (it's my wife & kid he's talking about), but it is the internet).

Fuck's sake, I went into that video thinking that I'd have one or two stories to show you up (if you wanted to hear about the Undisputed Queen of Urban Exploration and Urban Decay), but that guy really went the extra mile, and kept soaring past. Well...the Korean expat community outside of urbex has had personalities like that, and more often than not they're just burned out idiots trying to kick-start some long-ago spark of ingenuity faintly remembered. Get in their face in real life and they'll be singing an entirely different tune.

I'd definitely report that dude, and at least make sure his threats are on record. He seems pretty unstable, and who knows what he's capable of.

My goodness. I expected some amusing anecdotes not NEARLY as imbalanced as that. Props to you for handling it like an adult and not stoking the fire.

I think "adult" is being used rather liberally here.

Not to detract from your post, but I would like to hear about her highness

I wasn't trying to be childish about it.

Report that fruit and nut bar

I doubt he would ever reach you personally but if he finds out about a CC member in his area he might be unable to resist lashing out

I don't want to go on about it too much here as Benny boy can see this, but the main reasons I made the clip was not to gain attention but to give to his YouTube friends (I also put it on their fB pages where possible).

I know what Benny is doing - it's the internet, but I just thought to myself, fuck just ignoring his shit (that didn't work anyway), so I figured I'd call his bluff.

Cheers

Wow. I'm shocked you kept your cool with what he said about your wife and daughter.

This is terrifying.. .Please tell me you've saved these Emails and contacted the police or something... Dude seems like he's got more than one issue... Mental or not.

That's not what I meant - his rants resemble something coming from a pissed-off child rather than a grown man.

Yes, all emails saved.

I've also had some feedback from his online contacts (the nature of his emails has made people more willing to dob him in.

See PM.

No worries. My bad.

I agree totally.

Kudos Dougo. Anyone who follows/friends "Benny" needs to see this. Sure presents to me as a guy with a pattern.

1.

Well Dougo you have a few option and possibility,the guy is just a troll and keyboard warrior. Hand the transcripts to the police and have them search his crazy ass down. If he is a little crackerjacked then more reason for passing these to the police as that type of behaviour should not be tolerated at any time.

Or

go opposite way and track the fuck down yourself. Not sure about your crew but the people I know. We are good at that sort of thing about locating people there are ways. Then hand the shit to the police. If the guy is a troll just warn the rest of the group Normal people don't have to put up with that shit

Thanks again for all the advice.

I'm gathering more information on him.

He sent a few emails again that started like this...

"You wont be laughing when l get hold off you know who, and Doug why be so mean 4 l have enough freinds all your freinds are sewer rats, you all wont be laughing when l get personal, l dont need any help do you really think l would do that shit 2 your daughter but it just shows what a gutless girls dick you and your bunch off freaky mates r, All that shit l wrote was meant 2 spark up sum anger in you and 4 u 2 meet me 1 on 1 but you obviously dont care about your ugly little daughter cause if you did you would be coming after me wouldnt you drain man,

Ive woken up 2 what you bunch off idiots r l have a great bunch off freinds and family, I feel sorry 4 your poor kids having a deadbeat sewer daddy. Benny"

He then asked if he could, "Borrow my daughter".


it finished like this (after he asked for the 20th time that I come and meet him in a Melbourne drain)...

For what reason? Because you sent 50 emails like a crazy person and made a dick of yourself? Please rationally explain to me why you want to meet up for? Doug

To punch the living shitter outta you are you that fucking dumb are you... Benny

I've lowered myself to your level… well not quite.
Suffocating your fire troll.
I'll leave you to your trolling.

Who cares about spelling

(I'd mentioned his poor spelling earlier on (and I can talk )

Switching the light off troll.
You no longer exist.
Get help little boy.



He also mentioned how he's given up on the idea of doing drains and is taking up sky-diving.

I mention the sky-diving for a reason...

I know I'm going to get people shaking their head in response to what I did after my last email to him, but fuck him...
(all the quotes are based on his emails with the exception of the ones about the suits and jewish people... that was all Hitler)

while the downfall video memes are old and tired by now, your benny captioning had me laughing pretty hard.

They are old, but I just pictured Benny being like that
