| − | '''Jack''' is a YouTube user who created his account on November 10, and posted his first video ([[Me...Jack]]) on November 19, 2007. He appears to be a typical teen male, with his first subscription listed as Daxflame. He also has a silly channel description on youtube of "PAAAANCAAAAAKESSS!", which refers to an obscure comedy [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XNLBkMg_wY video] on youtube (where he made the same comment).

| − | Jack's troubles [[Me...Jack|began]] when his brother was arrested and kicked out of the school they both attend. Jack is prompted by his mother to see the school therapist, who in turn provides him medication to deal with his "depression." Jack then attracted the attention of a [[A Day in the Life of Jack|bully]], who realized Jack's brother is no longer there to protect him. As Jack is being [[Soooo Weird|beat up]], he blacks out and winds up in his bedroom with no knowledge of anything in between. Jack attributes this to a belief that he may have teleported. He quickly [[It Didn't Happen (Did It?)|dismisses]] the idea. For a second time, Jack is assaulted by the bully and his friends. He explains that he closed his eyes and was suddenly back in his room, in [[I Need Help]]. He then decides to experiment with "teleportation exercises" found on the website, [[whatweird.com]]. Jack has since shown [[How It Feels|control]] over his newfound abilities and gets a "rush" sensation whenever he uses them. [[The Stalker is Right Outside!|Jack's next vlog]] indicated that he was being stalked.

| − | Jack has struggled with the morality behind his powers, such as whether or not to bust his [[Learn how to TELEPORT!|brother out of jail]] or not. He has decided that while there are no official rules, he will never break the law with his teleportation.

| − | Jack was suspected to have been introduced as an official character on Lonelygirl15 in November 2007. While his first videos make no reference to Lonelygirl15, his videos were accepted as responses to lonelygirl15 videos on YouTube, and he soon happened upon the [[Whatweird.com]] website and mentioned it in a vlog, which in turn acknowledged his "shout out."

| − | Okay so, this guy Jack. What's up with this kid? I've been looking at his videos again.. because there is basically nothing for me to do here and I'm trying to focus on anything but my life right now. Anyways I watched his stuff over the weekend and as wacky as it all sounds, the kid seems so sincere. Not that I have great experience with seeing people for what they really are. I'm not going to even say her name. I'm not. Changing topic back to Jack if you haven't already seen his videos, you should definitely check him out.

| − | In the past, canonhood has been obtained when a character has been directly addressed in a video by a main character, as was the case for [[Gemma]], [[Jonas]], and [[Taylor]]. Taylor officially addressed Jack in the video [[Watch Me Balance]].

| − | It has been confirmed by Greg Goodfried that [http://inside.lg15.com/2008/01/16/brand-integrations-my-two-cents/ Jack is official] and that the lg15 team are behind the watchyourjack videos, but his videos are not required to follow the lg15 plot.
