Baron Von Grumble
Discussion
Just watched the latest vid, what a s
tty situation. That said, in a way I kind of feel happy for the Baron. It probably seems like it's terrible now but in time I'm sure it will work out for the best. It could be tough for a while but you've got to do what you feel is right. I'm glad he feels that he can be more free with his channel now, he has achieved what he dreamed of doing and the weight of obligation is lifted, I had worried when he made a vid a while back talking about being indifferent about going on, that the pressure to make new videos would be a burden rather than something he enjoyed - I'd rather the channel was shut than anyone feel like they had a right to demand vids, or for Baron to feel like he had to do it rather than wanting to do it. As for the heavy stuff at the end, it takes big stones to admit to suffering from depression and anxiety, so I have a lot of respect for that. It's good that BvG has a platform to give messages like that without being preachy or pretentious, so all the best to him.
In lighter observations, that KTM looks like a lot of fun, and quite a handful, it loves to wheelie!

I like the Mitchell and Webb style videos, but the one thing that comes back again and again is there must be a very understanding Mrs Grumble out there.
Enjoy making the vids, and the new bikes you lucky bastid, and keep up the good work.
Or not so understanding....Enjoy making the vids, and the new bikes you lucky bastid, and keep up the good work.
Continued good luck with it all. Balancing new family, work and enough fun to keep you sane is NOT easy.
So after watching all the vlogs and knowing Mr Grumble is local to me I had the pleasure of meeting him yesterday!
Chance meeting at Loomies as I stopped for a quick coffee. Don't want to sound too geeky but it made my day!
It was a bit wired hearing the voice and seeing the unmasked face.
The KTM looks great, I desperately want to trade my Streetfighter in but the misses isn't having any of it (bring on the abuse chaps).
Struck me as a nice bloke that I think would be a good laugh to have a beer with.
Man crush in full swing!!!

It was probably that bloke off Peep Show.
2nd vote for BvG - have a look here http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04kfldm/the-... at about 11 mins.Much as I thought it was better never seeing the man behind the mask, that is almost certainly him, unless there is someone of similar height and build, same first name and identical voice out there.
I feel sorry for him for having to suffer that raging power feminist.
