Hi Guys. Its Tim here - that weird chicken legged bloke that was stuck in hell for 30 days. Well, after a few days of well-needed rest, I am finally up and back on it. My medical revealed that I was dehydrated, have suffered muscle wastage and swollen joints and am having issues with my eyes. Not gonna stop me writing this though!

So, for MIB fans let me explain what’s going on now, then and next. I’ll start with the ‘then’!  

Well, I did the full 30 days. No one found me. Thanks for that! We had tonnes of guesses but they were all incorrect. The closest was 100 metres away - a good guess but not the exact location. Apologies for being a little tetchy in the last week - I was angry at not having been located and felt that no one was watching. Bit wrong there!

 ‘Now’ I have decided to take down repeat feed of the box. This decision was made by others in my absence. Considering that I have now had time to plan the future, repeating it is not part of that plan. We have bigger things in the pipeline that can involve you if you choose!

‘Next’ - Well, Man in Box2 is the future. I have been straight-up from the start in saying that the prize money was a reward for someone’s hard work in locating me. I explained that if no one did, mine and my wife’s ‘last bit of money’ would go towards future projects in an attempt to create something successful.  Man in Box was hugely successful. It attracted 8 million viewers in a month. NOTHING has done this before.

I liken it to a stumbling baby goose in space - we can all see the wings, at times it flew amazingly well but no one has ever put a gosling in space before...ever. Try it and see what happens! But one thing is for sure - with all the hundreds of compliments that have poured through - YOU WANT MORE MAN IN BOX! So that’s what’s happening to the money. It is being reinvested in to making Man In Box2. This time YOU can be in the box.

A small group of mates once sat down and came up with an idea. The idea grew, the team grew, no one slacked, no one got paid - EYERYONE was doing it for the love of trying something new. They all invested hours and hours in to it. It worked. Eight million people tuned in to watch.

The figures show that as little as 1 in every 60 viewers had a go at finding me. This goes to show that people were far more interested in watching my demise than trying to win the money! Maybe it was a sympathy thing! Its the legs.....I knew it!

To all the team involved, Pr4 (Chrissie, Andrea and Sophia + all the others), Man 1, 2, hidden 3, Speedo, The Mullins, phpology, Helen, Peta, Andy, Mc Nab, Help for Heroes, Nick at The Sun, Chris Ryan, Donks, Deano, Graham Stewart , Gina and most importantly to everyone who played, watched and took part in some way, I want to say the biggest ‘WWWICKED’ (Yes I am aware of the complaints I had telling me to stop saying that!)

When you come up with an idea, try it. Here’s an idea - YOU in the box for Man In Box 2.

If you want to assist in any way with the ‘next one then email me at tim@maninbox.co.uk.

The only money Man in Box generated was from online adverts. ALL of this is on its way to Help for Heroes. Next time please can more people click on the adverts.  Our boys and girls are fighting abroad, laying down their lives for the protection of others.  God bless you all.
