The man who filmed the dog chasing deer in Richmond Park - which has become an internet sensation - has been tracked down.Speaking to Absolute Radio's Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show, Ali Goodyear, 37, resolved much web debate about the dog's name.
Goodyear said: "I was just there with my son, Jake, and we were filming the deer and then all of a sudden a man just basically loses control of his dog.
"Fenton by the way, with an F - it's not Benton, everyone's calling it Benton - The dog just run off into the distance, chasing the deer."
He added: "I've been inundated with people from CBS, CNN, Good Morning America , German newspapers. I don't know what to do. I might get Max Clifford on it!"
"Fenton", "Benton", "Richmond Park" and "Jesus Christ" have all been trending topics on Twitter in recent days as the video has been shared among web users.
A number of parodies and remixes of the clip have also been produced.

his just another **** being dickish. if you can't control your dog, well you shouldn't have one. he sounds and looks like the stereotypical middle class nob, with his pretentiously named black labrador, that ironically could of ended up killing more people in one instant, then any pit ball could do in a peckham tower block. I remember a few summers ago I was in greenwich park, someone with a very posh accent was calling out for there dogs, there name's where Peter & Ruprecht.
