Native in the Spotlight: Brian “The Hurricane” Jackson the “I Believe” Guy
Before he was dubbed “The Hurricane” by Marvel Comics icon Stan Lee, Brian Jackson (Cherokee, Muscogee, and Seminole) started out making animal balloons for a community church event.
That small beginning has led him to breaking world records and traveling the world. He holds 12 Guinness World Records for blowing up balloons, exploding hot water bottles, and lifting a car off the ground — all with his own breath.
His accomplishments helped him turn around his life that was headed down the wrong path and included an arrest for dealing drugs. Join Native America Calling to talk to Jackson about his motivation for breaking records, his commitment to culture, and his belief in second chances.
