[Scott]

This happened in September but I never heard about it.
Holy crap.
That sucks. He was a cool dude.

My family likes to watch the Nitro Circus episodes.
It's a blast. These guys are just fun to watch.


I took my son to Phoenix in Jan of 14 to watch the live show. It was a BLAST.


Now they have the "Crazy Train" show, Nitro Games this summer and the "Action Figures" video on download.


LOVE what these guys do.
He seemed like such a grounded, humble and good guy.


The episode of Crazy Train where he was trying to get permission to BASE jump into the live show in So. Africa was great. A true testament to his personality and care for his craft.


I've never met him, but I'll miss that dude.

That sucks. I always liked Roner's segments on the tv show. Seemed like a super cool guy.
