Ben Nemtin (born January 10, 1984) is a Canadian producer,[1] writer,[2] speaker and television personality. He is the creator, executive producer and cast member of MTV series The Buried Life. Nemtin is co-author of the book What Do You Want To Do Before You Die?, which entered The New York Times Best Seller list.
Ben Nemtin was born in Victoria, British Columbia. After graduating high school, Nemtin was selected as a member of the Under 19 Canadian national rugby team,[3] and earned academic and athletic scholarships to attend the University of Victoria. At University, fed up with the monotony of day-to-day life, Nemtin and his friends set out on a two-week road trip with a camera and a borrowed RV to complete a list of "100 things to do before you die." Along their journey, they asked people the question, "What do you want to do before you die?"[4] For each item they accomplished on their list, they helped a complete stranger do something on their own list.
In the television series, Nemtin and his friends help other people cross items off their bucket list including reuniting a father and son after 17 years[5] and helping a young man find a healthy kidney.[6]
