Jackson received a special surprise last year when he learned he and his family had been selected for a Make-A-Wish trip. He chose to travel to New Zealand for an extreme sports adventure. He bungee-jumped off a bridge, rock climbed and took part in speed boat races. He says that when he bungeed off that bridge, it was life-changing: "I knew in that moment I could do anything!"
Thanks, Make-A-Wish!
