Blind Veterans Kayak The Grand Canyon

“The brave man is not the one who has no fears, he is the one who triumphs over his fears.”

– Nelson Mandela

In this inspiring video, give brave and inspiring blind veterans kayak 226 miles down the Grand Canyon – including class 5 whitewater under the leadership of blind veteran Lonnie Bedwell.

This amazing feat was In honor of Veteran’s Day and all of those who have given so much. Google partnered with the non-profit Team River Runner, an organization dedicated to providing all veterans and their families an opportunity to find health, healing, and community purpose.

Together they set out on making this wild dream come true to “to invigorating and inspiring others to get out and do whatever they seek to achieve.”
