Ugh why did he have to die?
I mean I know he died happy and all but it still doesn't seem fair. I wish I would have at least known about it or known he was sick or something.

That was a really nice video dude, good job. You got the tears flowing that's for sure. I was about to ask if you had a song because I was thinking of making a tribute as well with a short song I have. Anyway thanks, that was really beautiful.

He was more than just a writer. He was also a voice over, a pilot, a DJ, he had worked with people like Mel Blanc and Richard Simmons. I wish I could remember half the stories he told me. Maybe I'll try to remember some and post them later on.

His Captain Planet story was the best.

He may be gone, but he left one hell of a legacy behind.

Thank you, Sonique... or is it okay if I call you Alison? I'm very sorry and I feel bad for you since you personally knew him. Me, I lost someone in the Sonic community like every other Sonic fan, but I know you lost a great friend. I saw the video on your YouTube channel where he mentioned you by name, that must mean something big. (In fact, the picture in the end of my video actually came from that specific interview where he mentioned you.) So I really mean this when I say I'm sorry for your loss.

In my description, I didn't know which song to use at first. I chose "Tears in Heaven" but if you want to make a tribute to him might I suggest The Beatles' "The Long and Winding Road"? I hope I've been of help, and I'm sorry again for your loss.

This is a really sad day for me also.

I live in Sweden and saw this show during the 90's only a couple of episode and i loved them. But today i am a huge fan of the comic and the show. And i can say i will miss Ben Hurst but i don't think he would want the fans to give up hope for season 3 just because he died. He would probobly want the fans to continue to try to make that dream true.

PS: Please exkuse my grammar.

Beautiful video....it's hard to hold the tears back, but....hey, what can I say, the video and song fit. Excellent tribute.

R.I.P. Ben Hurst, you gave us one hell of a great cartoon, that will forever be kept in our hearts

I love the video. Tears in Heaven was a good song for the memory of him.

[The Mysterious Traveller]

The key theme of the video seems to be tears. Which is quite appropriate really.

Great work. I was touched.

I didn't know what to expect after not checking the forums for 2 months, but the passing of Ben Hurst is definitely something I wouldn't expect to see, or want to. Rest in peace Ben. We'll always remember your work in Satam.

Why is everyone cool or useful in entertainment suddenly dying in the past couple of years?

I know right? Michael Jackson, Bernie Mac, Farrah Fawcett, (Yes, I DID watch Charlie's Angels!) Billy FREAKIN' Mays, and now Ben? I gotta get to England FAST!
