    What a loss - such a chill guy that was SO talented, yet never took himself too seriously. It always felt like Christmas morning every time a new Gymkana video dropped.

    I originally saw this story on Fox last night, and for some odd reason I scrolled down and read a few of the comments (I hardly EVER read comments). I gotta tell you, there are some really f@cked up people in this world - the vicious, hate filled garbage people spew is mind-blowing.

    RIP Mr Block - you will be missed...

    Wow, my son just told me this.

    Incredibly talented....loss for words actually. He leaves behind a legacy that in some form may go unmatched.
