He simply searched on Google for 'The UK's toughest races' or 'The world's toughest races' - and settled on climbing the 15,780ft Mont Blanc.br br And after completing that task he realised then he had developed a taste for the extreme - so spent the next year trying others.br br Since tackling Mont Blanc Jack has also been to the Artic Circle and done cross-country skiing in Sweden - as well as taking on a number of UK challenges.br br The helicopter engineer has used his own income to fund the trips.
