Comments from feedback:
"As a windsurfer its hard to comprehend jumping that high, Lewis is a legend" Nik Baker
"Amazing Film, very inspiring and such a raw peeled back honest account of the year leading up to the jump. People think Lewis just thought 'oh yes I'm going to jump Brighton Pier today' seeing this will firmly put those ideas out of your head! Highly recommended, be prepared to enjoy the emotional ride" Rebecca Richardson
