Former Rugby player Ed Jackson had a life-changing accident where doctors told him he would never walk again.

In this powerful episode, Ed opens up to Joe Wicks about his injury, how he beat the odds with his recovery and how it felt to walk for the first time again.

If overcoming a paralysis prognosis wasn’t enough, Ed explains why 12 months after his injury he took on climbing Mount Snowdon, how the accident has led him to a happier life and how he has achieved the impossible with sheer will and motivation to be better.

His film, The Mountain Within Me, and his book, Lucky, are both out now.
