Scoob had never been in the military to my knowledge & we spent 2 weeks getting to know him.

I don't think it's him either.

Jeez, this is upsetting, I hope it isn't him.

I send my well wishes either way.

Please do keep us posted Greatwhite. His videos and grow were wonderfully beautiful.

All info I've seen posted here without a doubt says it was him.
I never really agreed with the way he did things here but then others would say the same about me (probably more so!)
Didn't care for the way he flaunted things but then he helped a few people from here.
Sad part is tragedy seemed to follow him around even with his expensive lifestyle. Younger brother killed in the line of duty defending his country. Now this.
I'm pretty sure he didn't live a real safe life and danger was his thrill. In the end that's more than likely why he's gone.
RIP

He is/was a risk taker.
While there we went for a drive some 50 miles into the rainforest and hiked in on a very steep trail for 1/2 mile or so to a series of 100' water falls that had huge trees upended into them. He didn't hesitate to jump into a 30' wide pool from 70 ft numerous time at several different places.
We were offshore trolling one day when he suddenly jumped off of the fly bridge & yelled back "I just want to swim a while" - we trolled around him for a while & got 3 nice 150 plus sails. He was good bait.
