Such a shame, but in a way, it's kind of the perfect way to get across whatever message he was trying to say... R.I.P.

It may make/inspire someone else do it but with Hi Tech warm clothes on. You can get clothes with heaters in them Last edited by arista; 05-04-2013 at 01:20 PM. |

Won't have as much impact as it won't have the tory 3 ring circus of a media to bolster the message however...

He made a Video a few days back or so. I still say he should have bought Hi Tech heated clothing from Maplin as he is not used to living rough He was trying to impress Channel 4 bosses to show his film. Last edited by arista; 05-04-2013 at 05:23 PM. |

Thats not the point though is it arista?... If you are documenting life as a homeless person you are living as they would not sitting there in a battery powered duvet..

Yes but he was to meet others and as he was not a Rough Sleeper that HiTech clothing could have saved him if he died of the Extreme Cold. No Back Up was crazy I know what you are saying Last edited by arista; 05-04-2013 at 05:32 PM. |

He could have aclimatised himself, is that what you are saying?
That would have made sense I guess but at 27 maybe he thought his body would withstand it? it is tragic

Freezing to death is actually surprisingly easy. cause when yur body temperature lowers and you start to go numb you don't really realize what's happening. You feel like yur tired, and just drift off to sleep not realizing how much danger you are in. It's actually a very peaceful way to die.
At least it wasn't a painful death. RIP.
