As someone that has had the black dog chase them for 40 years I just want to thank you for your efforts in bringing mental health discussions to the forefront. You are inspiring Jack and although i think even 1 Everest is beyond me, you have put a spark in the back of my mind to see just what I can achieve. Chapeaux mate.
after an avarage 4000 km/y in 2020 I've decided to spend some more time on my gravel bike and double the distance. august came and the 8k was done. I felt great but wrecked at the same time. Than I looked back and realized it was my best year since childhood.. so I took the effort and continued riding untill december. I remember that the second part was emitionaly intense. Did not managed to double the already doubled distance but the final stats were way over I tought I could manage a year.. 13.5k with almost 130000m of elevation. we could talk a lot about inspiration, but first time in my life I felt inspired by myself. Jack is responsible for that
As I reflect on Rising Up - An Everesting World Record Film, I am reminded of a quote by Helen Keller: "The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision." You have not only helped me see the light but have also ignited a vision within me, a vision of a future filled with hope, purpose, and endless possibilities. Thx, Jack Ultra Cyclist
I was out riding while this launched - I got back made a cuppa and watched it - not only are you helping others Jack, but you inspire them too - Thanks Jack from all of us
Jack, this is so impressive. Not only your everesting feat but the quality of this video! You've earned a fan and you deserve many more. Look forward to seeing what you do next.
I was waiting for this. I have been following you since your Taiwan days when I had just got into cycling. You motivated me to ride more. Cycling fixed my anxiety attacks except when I took part in Ironman and during swim felt like I'll get a panic attack. But it did not happen. Can't thank you enough.
This is not just a short film; One - a life devoted - that each individual is very strong, Showing that only you can manage your brain, your mood, and yourself. It was an incredible movie. You're amazing Jack, congratulations to you, your team and everyone who has been supportive throughout this whole process. - and you're gorgeous as always :)😎
Unbeleievable, been a pleasure to follow this over the whole year and now to see this summary of all the hard effort ....saying congratulations hardly seems enough..you have inspired a lot of people, keep being that inspiration to everyone and to yourself. You are amazing!
There are few things better than cycling. You do the sport considerable justice. Avid climber myself and I still have no idea how you did that. Simply remarkable. Congrats!
Hey Jack, not only what you achieved is amazing but more than that you as a person…you are very strong mentally and physically!! I think you wrote already History 💪🤟
Last year I did my first everesting, which took me probably a month to recover from) What you did seems to be something beyond human capabilities. But thanks to people like you, humanity overcomes those limits of the impossible 🙌 Hats off
your Strava posts last year have been a huge motivation to go out and ride... got goosebumps watching that last french everest. such an incredible feat absolutely mind blowing.
Always so interesting to see the mental toll as well as the physical toll something this demanding takes on an athlete. Thank you for sharing your story.
All you went through in life did bring you to this. Must have been dark and sometimes it still is but you are who you are because of it and damn, are you an inspiring individual putting tons of good into the world. Thank you Jack and I wish you all the best.
“If I can help one person, it’s basically all worth while” Jack my brother, consider it checked off the list ✅. I’ve been waiting for this film to come out, and it gave me chills. I’m even considering moving to Girona to start my family on the next chapter in our lives. Cheers.
I say that was efing good. I am a lifelong cyclist who dabbled in ultra. There is so much glory in the Tour, that everything else is proportionally and inaccurately diminished. This, my friend, is (my opinion) one of the great cycling accomplishments, really, beyond my ability to conceive. I also appreciate your honesty and vulnerability. I think my mental state is similar to yours. I like to say there's "just" some very, very sensitive neural paths our minds have to navigate.
What a great look at behind the scenes of this unbelievable feat. All of the highs and lows. So happy for you Jack that you accomplished this. Thanks for sharing and a huge congratulations once again! 💪👏❤️
An otherworldly achievement and an inspiration to us all. I don't know how many times we've said it, but congratulations again, Jack. We were all incredibly proud to be a part of such a ground-breaking project. Onwards and upwards ; )
All of your projects are mind blowing Jack. This one takes it to another level. Congrats on this incredible achievement. Your effort and dedication to support people who are managing mental health issues is truely inspirational. 👏
Such an epic journey! It has been a pleasure to witness you get this massive achievement. Even more with the positive message you carry! Can’t wait to see what the next adventure will be 💪🏽
Speechless, really. Just off the charts amazing to achieve that goal and also achieved the purpose of inspiring me to donate and to treat mental health with kindness. I will forever link Evereresting with supporting mental health.
Incredible Jack! The truth is that I didn't know you (I apologize for that). I have been thinking about Everesting for a while, and by chance I ended up watching this documentary. Only comment that I was delighted to see this, you are really an inspiration and I congratulate you for it! From now on you have a new follower. Best regards!
So inspiring Jack. And so beautifully captured with fantastic photography, storytelling and editing. I don’t understand why I have only just heard of your challenge. I am following you now and look forward to more posts.
Congrats again Jack next level I think it is the most amazing thing that I’ve have ever seen , Chapeaux a million times and Everest every week just mental commitment , well done 👍

I'm beyond impressed, what you have done is absolutely amazing, you should be so proud of yourself. Not just physical but also mentally.
Just wow!
“People need to respect that I can’t keep doing this” - hang on, wasn’t this your idea!?
Insane effort. Mentally more than physically.
