Shocking. :sadface
Just like Michael Schumacher, not in a car, but in a snow sports related accident. His Gymkhana videos are legendary, and personally close to me as it was one of the few occassions when I could make my friends watch something car related and them watching it with awe and not zoning out.
May he Rest in Peace and his family have the strength to overcome the grief.
I have seen a fair share of Ken in action videos, all of which ended with my jaw open and a thought of "But how?" in my mind.
He was a true legend.
Godspeed Ken.
Thank you for bringing us much joy.
RIP Champ. You left this world doing what you love. You will be missed!
Oh man, what a way to go and too soon. His videos were logic defying and just amazing to behold. Will be missed.
The Gymkhana videos were the very first ones which I had shown to my toddler son and now he drifts his wiggle car and says he is "Ken Block". Shocking loss this. RIP Ken!
Terrible news, rest in peace legend!
I was first introduced to him when I saw one of his Gymkhana videos on him ripping apart the Ford Focus and Fiesta RS. Subsequently I watched every one of his videos and the Amazon prime series.
He had so much more to share to the rallying and racing world. Taken away too soon

On Schumacher's birthday no less.
Tragic, tragic news. RIP.
This is wayy too shocking!
I used to follow him regularly. I was waiting for his daughter's Audi Quattro video. They had just signed up Block for a year of Electrickhana!
Block and BJ Baldwin were my go to entertainers whenever I wanted to see some insane drives.
Godspeed to his wife and 3 kids.
-NA :(
This is terrible news, may he RIP. Loved his Gymkhana videos. He has a worthy successor in Lia.

The slow-mo where he flies over the ramps with a C-130 in the background will be engraved in my mind forever. Not to mention many many more which made us awe over more than a decade.
Rest In Peace Ken Block. Your skills were nothing short of wizardry in automotive world.
A tragic start to the new year. May his soul rest in peace.
A tragic loss indeed. Loved his Gymkhana videos. May his soul rest in peace
