The 22-year-old was devastated he couldn't join them on the getaway due to work commitments - but he didn't let his shift stop him from missing out on the fun.
Ben decided to spontaneously jet out for the wild birthday bash on July 10 before casually returning to work the next day.
The bloke from Fleet, Hampshire, said: "I decided to go out there the day before. I know a lot of people use work as an excuse for not going on nights out or celebrating things but I didn't want to do that, I felt bad that I couldn't go.
"I did have work the day that I flew and the day after but I wanted to see if I could head out there for one night. Doing it gave me an adrenaline rush.

"It was a very freeing experience for me as well. It was a great night out," he added.

The whole adventure cost the influencer £400 but he said it was worth it.
