    Peter, I think many of us know much of your story from previous EFRT videos, but your retelling of it in this video is truly epic! You are an inspiration… we look forward to following your future adventures and we wish you all the best!

    Every diabetic should see this video and see how to live an adventurous life with the disease. I’m a type 2 diabetic and your video inspires me to get up, get out and live life to the fullest! Thanks and best wishes to you. God is your copilot!

    Peter, you and your family have been a great inspiration to me and my family! We’ve been watching all of your videos for the past few years and truly respect everything you guys have achieved. I turn 21 in a couple weeks and from being a rather soft, indoors, plump kid growing up after seeing what you guys do you have inspired me to take on new challenges and push myself forward! Me and my family have started camping occasionally and we plan to do more this summer as well, continue to do what you do man! You’re a huge inspiration 🙌🙌

    @AdventureGuys, Peter, as someone who has had a passion for all aspects of video production, radio broadcasting and photography since I was a Freshman in high school, and was lucky enough to get to do his own Outdoor TV Show in the 80s & 90s and continues to do video production and graphics design since 2005 on UA-cam, I want to say that you are very talented and your camera work is some of the best I have seen from a young man of 22 years. You are a truly seasoned videographer/cinematographer, well beyond your years, and you should have no problem making a career from your passion. Keep up the great work!
    You and Caroline are truly gifted video creators and both do a fantastic job in your videography and narration (and I suspect editing [?]) of The EFRT Videos. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
