This individual, only known as the Eighth Venture Crewman, was a sailor who was part of the SS Venture's crew. He was part of the search party that looked for Ann Darrow when she and the SS Venture's crew made land on Skull Island, where she was taken away by a massive ape known as Kong.

He survives the first half of the conflicts that arose in their expedition, up until the second conflict, where the crew came to rest in a narrow valley, where up ahead behind them where a group of Brontosaurs grazed before being startled by hunting Venatosaurs, where a stampede ensued in the narrow valley. He was caught up in the stampede, where he was the first to die in the search party, being crushed under the foot of a stampeding Brontosaur.

Biography[]

The man was hired by Carl Denham to an expedition to Singapore (whom unbeknownst to him and the rest of the crew, were actually going to Skull Island). He was first seen getting the ship started as water was dripping on him. Once Ann Darrow was given sacrifice to a giant ape called Kong, Captain Englehorn deployed a crew to find her, with this crewman being part of the Search Party.

Entering the dark forest of Skull Island, several birds frightened one of the sailors, which caused an angry Ferrucutus to storm out of the dead bush and attack the crew, hitting several sailors, where the eighth Venture crewman survived without being hit by the angry ceratopsian. Afterwards, the crew wandered through a rainforest creek full of giant dragonflies, where they eventually wandered into a temple-like gorge, where they rested for a few moments, where he and the crew find a large footprint of Kong. Eventually, the gorge is rumbling with rocks falling, where the Crewman carefully looked above and his firearm down. Once the footprints became louder, he quickly ran into the gorge with the rest, where he was the first Crewman to take off running into the gorge following Bruce Baxter, who ran up ahead of the Crewmen.

Once the stampeding Brontosaurs came through the valley, he, alongside the Crew (notably running alongside the twelfth and third crewman) where caught in the stampede. As he desperately ran, he ran in front of a Brontosaurus where he was stomped and crushed to death by the stampeding dinosaur. He is the first to die in the expedition, briefly screaming an throwing his fire arm as he was crushed to death.

Appearance[]

He is Caucasian with a stubble, who who wore a grey beanie, a beige-white jacket, an olive-grey shirt underneath, with olive-beige pants and black shoes, and is equipped with a bag and a Thompson M1928. When they were attacked by the Ferrucutus, he wore a black trench coat as did some of the other crewmen.
