He wanted to bring flowers to the famous bench where Williams' character sits with Matt Damon's character in Good Will Hunting.

"When we got there, there were two guys sitting on the bench," Rabchenuk said to BuzzFeed. "As we were talking, another couple came by and we all started chatting. I got out my chalk, my girlfriend wrote the 'BANGARANG' and the Ferngully line."

"I wrote the line from Good Will Hunting and traced my feet to represent his when he was sitting on the bench," he said.

Rabchenuk told BuzzFeed, "That one scene on the bench is arguably one of the best scenes of any movie made in the last 50 years. It's so simple and straightforward, it just hits you right in the gut."
