The incredible six year journey of an ex-paratrooper and his dog 

A beautiful story, got me near a bit teary by the end of that. What a lovely chap all the best to him and his new family. And Jeds the Good boy of the year.

What an insperational man, so happy that he found his lovely dog, and a family along the way, I hope they all have a very happy and healthy life to enjoy in front of them!

from an ex soldier your a inspiration to any veterans out there struggling.

Its amazing how animals are the ones you gravitate too, I'm a life long major clinical depression unfortunate, war veteran and, can do person. Luckily I have always had a lot of fight in me that again & again saved me. I feel for the types who give up. A great story from a man who obviously has the fight in him too, good luck Sir.

From extreme traveler to Chris and his family ❤❤❤. I only hope Chis can find and provide a stable home for his little child. Huge congratulations and RESPECT

I remember seeing when he passed Ullapool , I felt so happy to see him and his doggie

What a beautiful story, I could not live without my dogs much love to Chris and his lovely family ❤

.One man and his dogComing from a sad place and a lot of walking to a happy place.With a partner child .So beautiful.

Respect brother from a another paratrooper, we are survivor's

Good on you brother, I left the military after 6 years service and by god did I struggle, I couldn't cope with things and adapt to normal life, became depressed and so lost and it was SSAFA that showed me support until earlier this year I returned back home to the military and started serving again. Can gladly now say I feel how I should be and couldn't be more greatful the support military charities provide as well.

Epic. What a marvellous legacy he has. I hope he’s immensely proud of himself raising so much money for such a good cause. Best of wishes to him, partner, baby & dog, for the future.

What an incredible story & a great voice

Amazing guy, and a lovely dog!

congratulation Chris, you are totally amazing!! Thank you Brian and Liz, life members of SSAFA ❤❤

The next time he says "walkies" the dog gonna run in the opposite direction!...fair play man.

Such a beautiful story one man and is dog

First class on all fronts. Good effort. Good luck. 👍

Just beautiful and great things to you and your family in the future

A journey of discovery and healing.

I promise to be better, because of this. ❤

It's something I've always wanted to do and still hope to do. Good on him.

Magnificent! All health and happiness to the four of you 🎉 😊

I was lucky enough to be a neighbour of Chris in Swansea; despite his obvious psychological struggles, his character and deep-down determination shone through. Must admit to shedding a few tears watching this, not helped by the use of The Foo's 'Times Like These'!!

This is going to be some movie what a man

An amazing journey & story ❤☮️

Used to sit with Chris in maths at school & enjoy a beer with him in our younger days, always been a top man, deserves all luck & accolades in the world, great bloke.

Absolutely amazing👏

Beautiful!

Love and prayers 🙏 ❤ too you both indeed Thankyou

Happy for his new family 👪 ❤

As an ex soldier myself.. All I'll say is well done pal 👍🏾

Well done sir. All the best for the future for you & your family

Hiking is therapy 🌹

What a fantastic journey...

Great video. Amazing feat. Love that song. The part of the film where Kate gets emotional gets me every time! 🥰

See those Scottish midgies? Individually they're tiny and yet each bite feels like a spark has landed on your skin, it's painful. I remember up on the Whisky Trail on Speyside kind of, where I used to live, I took my son camping and when I got up in the morning and leaned out if the tent to boil some water, a hoard of them descended on my bare arms, it was like his tent except possibly worse as they were hungry and seriously, you could hardly see my arms through the layer of midgies. Obviously I had on long sleeves when the kettle boiled and I made the tea. They eat me alive, some people don't seem to get bitten nearly as much. I really admire him for doing this, especially all those miles and miles in Scotland and its islands.

Airborne Chris. Never give up bro.

Great journalism channel 4 a good news story excellent...go the paras ! One would expect no less fantastic utterly fantastic

It's so beautiful moment with beautiful view, thanks Lord 🙏🙏🙏

as a nation we should crowd fund vulnerable teens who are at risk of a life of crime to continually circle the coast line picking litter to help create a better cleaner world for future generations. local communities they visit could fund them and give them free camping space all whilst being promoted by local press at every location they visit.

Wonderful ❤

he deserves to have more than quadrupled that target. I’m not really sure what is more impressive, the achievement or Chris

Thanks for posting🎉

First hears of him when he was in shetland during covid the things he's seen

I'm not crying you are

Well done ❤

I think I met this guy on his travels, the dog is very familiar 😂

I was really struck by the enormity of the challenge Chris undertook and the level of humility he has tackled it with when I first learned of him. He is a real inspiration for anyone who has struggled with any degree of mental health. Can somebody please put him touch with 'Speakers from the Edge' which will allow him to tour round the UK and give talks on his amazing achievement. The real beauty of this is the level of generosity displayed by the public as he made his way. There is a something about seeing a person who is potentially vulnerable that brings out the best in some people. But being vulnerable is not about an individual displaying weakness, it is about that individual allowing another to express their generosity towards them. That is the Spirit of Humanity. God bless you, Chris and your beautiful family! You have touched more lives than you could possibly have imagined.

Wow....thats sll O can say really! Wow and absolutely amazing! Well done .

Amazing!

Jet! What a girl!

What a hero!

Well done

What a story, good on you chap,that one way of healing but for many of these soldiers a long lasting peace must be confronting what they have done and seen in these wars that is haunting them and share the stories to expose those who sent you in these wars and abandon you when you are broken,the goal:for future generations of soldiers to refuse to go and fight other people who have done nothing to their country,people whose only fault is to have ressources in their country.peace

Amazing

Great voice!

What a legend.

Amazing ❤

I read an article where he said that jet will soon be crossing over. Has anyone heard anything about her?

Imagine walking across the border with your child for his first time back on home turf.

6 years of your life walking around the coast . I couldn’t do it

Thay dog did a fantastic job of filming.

Good on ya mate 👏

Cathy Newman of Channel 4 News: I’ll never forget your poor interviewing on Jan 16, 2018. It’s been 5 years but I will keep on criticizing you and condemning you!

theres been nothing significany in the world news for a week, finally that silence has continued long enough for good news stories to start up

He has put on a bit of weight, and looks better for it

WOW

I wish.

i would love to know what reaction Chris & Co received if they were spotted making their way along the SW Hampshire beaches of sand & shingle between the mouths of Beaulieu & Lymington Rivers. As I understand it , the beach or shore between High Water mark & the actual sea level isn’t private property ( not withstanding MOD land & suchlike ) & one can’t be accused of trespass but there’s a pair of neighbours along this particular stretch- both ex working class & from the midlands whom aren’t at all keen on sightseers or plebs interrupting their peaceful & private world amongst opulence indoors & outside .Being a musician is a fabulous thing but in my estimation when compared to many whom have spent decades writing & performing masterpieces of wonder , inspiration & imagination but remained un recognised,unrewarded or completely disregarded whilst these guys’ batch of simple pop rock earned them & their companies millions & they basically got money for nothing. So if Chris was detected & invited in for tea or soup I retract my spiteful comment completely but if he was chastised or threatened with the dogs I rest my case & mourn the loss of easy access to such a magical stretch of coast previously enjoyed by many for generations 😮👍

Should of taken Poor Prince Harry with you.

The daughter who went to collage missed her dad for 6 years and he came back with a mom and brother

Dark Jet 74

That is one tired dog!

Started out on his own and he's picked up a dog, a wife and a kid on his way. That's what you call fate...
