A YouTube engineer invented an off-road ‘Not-A-Wheelchair’ for his wife to give her more freedom than ever before.
Zack Nelson, better known as JerryRigEverything, is known for testing out smartphones’ durability, looking at drones and conjuring other cool, wacky stuff.
His partner, Cambry Kaylor, is a regular contributor on the channel. Back in 2005, she had an equestrian accident which led to her being paralysed from the waist down. With Zack’s help, her injury doesn’t hold her back whatsoever.
In 2018, a year before the pair got married, Zack basically stuck two electric bikes together and popped a seat in the middle. When they realised how comfortable and effective it was, they got hard to work on The Rig; an electric, adaptive off-roader.
