Ken Block: death by snowmobile

'This the season.

My guess is that Jeremy Renner narrowly avoided a similar fate.

Awful. The same type of accident happens to like 10 farmers in the Alps every summer.

Re: Ken Block: death by snowmobile

It feels bad enough being buried under a normal bicycle - lying under several hundred kilograms of a snowmobile (or a quad) is most often fatal.

2023 is seamlessly continuing where 2022 ended.

I get the feeling that as there are more "celebrities" nowadays, there will be more notable deaths.

But yes, a terrifying way to leave the world.
