    One of Zack’s first major videos I saw was the elevator he built in his house. It’s very clear that he’s been trying as hard as he can to leverage his TH-cam career into making life better first for his wife, and then for everyone. Most of his early videos I’ve never even gone through are car builds, and he’s gone through a lot of ideas before settling on the phone durability/tear down format of the last 3-4 years. Of course he has the best teardown videos on TH-cam, and he obviously loves tech in general, but I think his true passion relies in accessibility, not phones, and for obvious reasons. Cambry is just one example of how great someone in a wheelchair can be, and how much more they can do when everyone works to help each other out. Accessible tech is also the pinnacle of technology and human design coming together, and that seems right up zack’s alley. I hope you continue to do great things.

      A house is most of the time not a big problem, you can get quite well around with lifts. One like Zack build of chair lifts.
      Most people I hear complaining about is that cities are horrible for handicapped people. Alot of bumps and slight climbs everywhere. The same problem is at alot attraction parks and zoo's. I worked for a zoo and we had a group of handicapped people test the park. They offered some managers to join the test by putting them in a wheelchair. I never heard so much cursing of the management.
      That said everything someone adds to improve someone's mobility is a good thing. Talking about it also works.
      There are more handicapped people in the world most people think of. But alot of people don't see it or want to see it. I agree with you Matt it is great a someone with a platform uses it for the greater good. There are alot that only uses it got the gains (moneyz).
      Keep up the good work and we need to keep fighting to make the world a better place for everyone.
      Never forget spread butter and not hate, since butter and fresh bread is the best thing ever. Hate not.

I haven't got a physical disability myself, but Cambry is incredibly inspirational to me (and I don't mean because of her disability, I mean she inspires me on a woman to woman level). She's feminine but strong, confident but not narcsistic, tough but not hard, beautiful, natural, funny, laid back, intelligent, competent, and she seems willing to try new things even if they scare her. Anyway, I think I've gone on enough about a woman who I've never even met haha. I just wanted to say that she's exactly the type of woman I try to be every day. Mr clean is one lucky guy.

    I’m finally putting ego aside and researching all terrain wheelchairs.

    I am beyond thankful for all you and Cambry are doing to help others in wheelchairs experience life to the fullest without it costing them more than they can afford! Your passion project will have such far reaching ripple effects and impact so many lives! As someone who is in a wheelchair (with most of my family living on a farm that is super NOT accessible) it is so amazing to think about being able to actually have a way to participate in farm activities safely (most scooters are not super stable) and not have it break the bank! You guys are absolutely amazing and I just love you all so much! God bless you and all that you are doing! ❤Jennifer

    The one thing you need is low cost replacement wheels that can go on regular chairs, as often they wear out, and the owner is often stuck for a long time waiting for repairs. Or those wider wheels that will fit a regular one, which then immediately allows use in places like parks, as they are less likely to get stuck.

      As an autistic person, most disabled people prefer "disabled", as it is *NOT* a bad word! This from neurodivergent_lou, explains why you shouldn't be using "euphemisms": Disabled people's needs are not special, extra, burdensome or additional, they are human needs. Referring to disabled people as having special needs is inaccurate. As an autistic person, I need to be able to communicate and express myself, that need to communicate is not special, that need is the same as every non disabled person. I might just need accommodations in order to communicate. The term 'special needs' makes it feel like accommodating disabled people is optional, which it is not. The term special needs is also associated with special treatment too and it gives society the impression that instead of accessibility being a right, it is 'special treatment' or a 'special privilege.' If disabled people's rights were seen as the rights that they are (instead of being seen as extra, additional or special) then perhaps wheelchair ramps would be in every building, plastic straws would be available to those who need them and disabled toilets would be made to be available and accessible. Instead, disabled people's accessibility rights are seen as an afterthought. I want to see disabled people's accommodation needs normalised and the term special needs does not do this for me. It 'others' disabled people. It separates disabled people's needs and the needs of non disabled people. When I was labelled as having special needs as a child, it took away my ability to feel pride in my disability too and see disability as part of my identity. The term special needs often infantilises disabled people too. Disability is not special, rare, exceptional or unusual. Disability is a normal part of life. The term special needs makes it sound as if it is unusual or rare. This too heightens the inaccessibility cycle. If people believe that disabled people are few and far between then people don't see the point or the benefit in accessibility. Accessibility is however vital. Sometimes people say that they don't see my disability but just see my needs, specifically my 'special or additional needs.' I feel that this is often because people see my disabled identity as something inherently negative, which I guess is part of growing up in a society which sees disability as something to be ashamed of. I need people to recognise my disability. I am exhausted by the euphemistic terms used to describe disability. which I guess is part of growing up in a society which sees disability as something to be ashamed of.

While in three different rehab centers and 5 months away from my home I have really found out what its like being in a wheelchair. I was an Auto Body Frame tech and fabricator for 16 years so I had a lot of time to think of improvements. I have watched your videos for the past couple of years. I have some really great ideas of some mobility reverse trikes. My only problem is right at this time I'm not able to put my ideas to use so if you could maybe give me some help or collaborate on some things. I know you have awesome ideas of your own so maybe you could help give me some advice and see if my ideas could even be useful ! Thanks ! Great luck for you in your new headquarters.
