In 1994, Jason Lewis and his friend Steve Smith decided to attempt a human-powered trek around the globe. They expected to complete the trek in two years, however about a year into the journey, Lewis suffers two severely broken legs after being hit by a drunk driver in Colorado. It would take a couple of years before Lewis and Smith could resume their trek, with Smith dropping out of the adventure when the pair reached Hawaii. From coups to problems fundraising, Lewis’s trip never lacked for challenges. Thirteen years after setting out, Jason Lewis arrived home in England.
