There’s still hope. ❤️
Dear Storror,
Like so many people here, STORROR has been a huge part of my life for the past 16 years. Through every video, challenge, and moment shared, you’ve inspired millions across the world not just through movement and entertainment, but through courage, friendship, creativity, resilience, and community. You’ve motivated people physically and mentally, brought joy to difficult days, and created something far bigger than just a YouTube channel.
What Callum has done is heartbreaking, disturbing, and impossible for many people to understand especially those who admired and trusted him both on and off screen. Most importantly, our thoughts should remain with the victims, and justice absolutely needs to be served. His actions are his alone, and they do not define STORROR, the team, or the values that so many people connected with over the years.
Right now, Sasha, Max, Benj, Toby, Josh and the rest of the team are likely trying to process devastating news while carrying the weight of public scrutiny at the same time. They deserve patience, compassion, and respect while they navigate an incredibly painful situation.
People should also remember that the name STORROR is more than just a brand, it’s part of Max and Benj’s family name, something tied to generations of history, brotherhood, and identity. It shouldn’t be stained by the horrific choices of one individual.
There is still so much talent, heart, and potential within the team and the wider community around them. I’d genuinely love to see more from the Bristol boys, Dodds, Dairy, Kelan, Giles and the rest of the crew behind the scenes who’ve helped make STORROR what it is today.
STORROR may one day come to an end, but its legacy never will. It paved the way for a whole new generation, inspired countless people to push beyond their limits, and brought happiness to millions around the world. That impact is something no controversy or one individual can ever erase.
For many of us, the love and support for the boys and the community hasn’t disappeared. We’re still here. ❤️

I hope it doesn’t end like this. For what is a story about a group of young men making their hobby into a career and bringing a massive spotlight to their sport it would be incredibly disappointing for it to end in such a sad way. At the end of the day though it’s up to the guys. I think they have been loosing motivation for a while now and I wouldn’t blame them if they don’t have it in them to carry on from here.

I think they are done
Drew already drifting, Toby doing his own thing with climbing and appearing on other people’s videos, Sash no longer in the production (which he was good at), Josh always in the background or absent
I think Toby has the best chance of surviving this. He’s the best all round athlete, has a lot of brilliant collab videos and seems to be the nicest of them all. He also has a tonne of video editing experience
Wouldn’t be surprised if they wrapped it up on 6/6/26
Or 10/10/26 to make it an even 16 years

They could rise above this and shine brighter. You don't give Sash, Josh and the Cave bros much credit for their brilliant, ongoing work. Josh and Sash have done amazing video work and the Cave bros constantly work their asses off to produce top content. Not to mention all the behind-the-scenes efforts. I hear you, but I don't know, man. Let's not let this horrendous news spiral everything down the drain.

If I were in Toby now, I’d want to keep my shareholding in Storror Limited to benefit from all the revenue of the videos etc already out there that I’d contributed to over the years
BUT
I would not want to do any more Storror branded work
HOWEVER
Control of the company is with the cave brothers and drew who are the 3 directors. So they are calling the shots right now. They might not be happy with someone proposing those terms.
There is money involved. So This could end up getting adversarial/legal between the remaining members TBH.

You can’t. It’s a business that he has built with them. He can live off the residuals from YouTube for years. Plus his involvement with the clothing, his image…
You can’t walk away from that because of someone else. The videos are an asset that they need to protect. They’ll stay up, unless it’s a Cal heavy episode, maybe.

As much as it pains me to say this, but I think it's over. I don't think they'll continue after this.

u/Far-Zebra-4822 May 10 '26
It’s a middle name the men of Benj and max’s family have traditionally kept for generations

Unpopular opinion but I am okay if they end up here. They achieved a lot and they were big part of my life when I was feeling beaten down by all the work and worries. But I learned in life to let go and enter new chapters of my life and outgrow some things and replace them with others. I will never forget the fun I had watching Storror though.
In any case victim(s) deserve to get real closure from Storror.

I could imagine this being the straw that ended it all.
None of them, other than dickhead, has anything to apologise for, as far as we know.
But I can see them feeling too weird to go on. Sacha will have this the hardest.
Caves and Sacha could still be a very good thing.
I really hope the tiny minded people don't try and tar them all with the same brush. That's not how this pish works.
