The Jack Osbourne of today is not the Jack Osbourne that was catapulted onto our TV screens back in 2001; along with his family in the Emmy award winning reality TV show The Osbourne’s. He is no longer a teenager dependent on alcohol and drugs struggling to cope with the pressures of world wide fame, he is a sober, engaging young man with a new focus in life.

If reality TV introduced the world to Jack, then reality TV seems to have offered Jack his most creative outlets. While taking part in Channel 4’s Celebrity Detox, Jack overcame his childhood fear of heights and found a new passion in extreme sports. Since then Jack has travelled the globe mastering the world’s most dangerous sports, whilst being filmed for his hit TV show Adrenaline Junkie for ITV2.

Since starting the show Jack has run with bulls in Pamplona, climbed sea cliffs with no ropes or harnesses, fought a Thai martial arts expert and abseiled the Gorges Du Verdon in the South of France. Jack’s biggest goal so far has been conquering the mountain El Capitan, which took him months of training. Jack has never been one to shy away from danger and he has found his perfect match in extreme sports, which pushes him to his limit every time.
 
In the second series of the hit show Adrenaline Junkie: The Hard Way Round, Jack took on even more adventurous and equally dangerous stunts from all over the world. Jack also took part in Sport’s Relief “The Fight” where he faced Bradley McIntosh.

In his autobiography Twenty One Years Gone, Jack is brutally frank about his life so far, the highs, the lows and his descent into addiction; how he got his life back on track and his new found passion for extreme sports.

Last year Jack filmed the third series of Adrenaline Junkie which saw him travel the world in pursuit of even more extreme adventures. And he’s currently recording his fourth series with some celebrity team mates.

Last year, Jack also took part in The Mongol Rally which was filmed for ITV2.

In February 2008, Jack joined his family to host the Brit Awards – the biggest event in the music calendar – to an audience of more than 7 million and rave reviews.
