Jasper Schuringa became an overnight international news sensation after his heroic act. He appeared in TV shows such as Larry King Live and Good Morning America, but soon went into hiding, first in the US and later on in the Netherlands, because the flurry of attention became too much.

Jasper Schuringa: “Every day requests from all over the world are pouring in. Even though it is still difficult to grasp, I realize I experienced something extraordinary. This is why I would like to reconstruct the events in as much detail as possible so everybody, including myself, can see what happened.”

Producer and Eyeworks Group CEO Reinout Oerlemans: “Of course I knew his story from the press but it impressed me even more when I heard it from Jasper personally. We are honored that he wants to tell this story with us, specifically. We already know there is a lot of interest from broadcasters worldwide.”

Eyeworks 3BALL USA CEO and Producer JD Roth: "We are always in search of a real live super hero... And Jasper is it. His selfless actions prevented a possible catastrophe and I am thrilled to be part of the team that will share this inspirational story with the world. I think television viewers will not only want to hear the details of his story up close and personal, but will feel inspired by this documentary to help others as well. “
