not bad man, the pacing and everything was good, although I would of kept the "falling off the edge today" lyric, could of shown Jack falling off the cliff before Locke saved him. And I would of shown a clipfrom the hatch before Jack pressed the button for " the countdown begins " but it's all good. Still a ddcent video

To TheRock420RVD: Thanks, agree it could be better, and you had a good idea with Jack falling off the cliff during " falling of the edge today"... I also think that i should use some clips from the hatch but unfortunately I dont have seasons 2-4...
blackwolf1480 : Thank you...I´m glad you liked it

lostaddict3333: thanks

DomGirl23: I dont think that everything was perfect, but thank you very much! I am glad you enjoyed it:-)

This rocked!!! What a fantastic Jack character study! Perfect song choice, I loved it

especially for Jack's character as the "Hero"! Your beat use was intense and just mindblowing to the pounding beats of this awesome song! Great clip choices of all the greatest Jack moments of his life, coloring and overlays, especially at the beginning! I really liked 0:28, the clip for "someone save me.." with Jack and Kate

Amazing video!

This was so amazing! It's funny, I've been listening to this song for months and my friend Samara (AthenaAlexandria on here) told me to make a Jack vid to it, and I thought about it, but was too lazy to bother with the beats, but yours was just amazing. Great job! It fit Jack well and the vid had great beat use too.

And I actually liked your clip choices and that you didn't use Jack falling off of the cliff for "falling off the edge today" and the hatch for "the countdown begins" because I think that would be far too literal. Vidding isn't about just finding clips that match the lyrics exactly, you have to fit what the song means, and the song was talking about a figurative/emotional 'falling off the edge', so that would have been a bit out of place to me. I loved what you did with the whole vid though. Beautiful vid!

Thanks again for gold and CP:-)
SassyLostie2: Thanks for your opinion it means a lot to me. When I was thinking about the song I knew that it had to be some " Hero " song. At first I thought about using Hero by Nickelback but I´d already use this song before... So I just put the word "Hero" into the browser and the best song that google gave me was this Hero by Skillet

... And you are definitely right that vidding is not about finding clips that match the lyrics perfectly, and the whole vid/song tells what´s the meaning of your video, but like I said, I´d really wanted to use clips from the hatch but I just do not have them

Uruviel: Thank you very much, I always appreciate your comments

Jinlovessunxx : I am so so so glad that you like it. 0:28 he needs someone to save him ( because when something bad happens on the island, I mean for example death of Sayid, he takes it too personally, he needs to save everybody and when he fails, he convince himself that it was his fault, even when it wasn´t ) and it will be kate for sure:-) at least I hope it will be Kate.

This was so great! It reminded me of why I love Jack so much. I totally agree with what you said about him needing someone like Kate to "save" him because without her to remind him that not everything is his fault it would be too easy for him to let his guilt and self-loathing destroy him like we saw in the flashforwards.
