Can This Disabled Paddle-Boarder Cross Canada's Five Great Lakes?

This video follows the incredible journey of Mike Shoreman, a paddle-boarder who refused to let a severe illness stop him from achieving something extraordinary.
After being diagnosed with a condition that impacted his balance, vision, and overall physical health, Mike was told he would never paddleboard again. Instead, he turned his struggle into a mission to cross all five of Canada’s Great Lakes, using his adventure as a platform to bring attention to youth mental health issues.
The film captures the physical challenges of enduring harsh weather, navigating treacherous waters, and overcoming fatigue, all while managing the emotional toll of his battle with depression and anxiety. Mike’s story is one of resilience and determination, showing that even in the face of overwhelming odds, perseverance and support can pave the way for hope and change.

This kind of " inspirational documentaries" always have something wrong. The History Channel literally can be considered The national enquirer now. 😢
