American motorsport legend and YouTube star Ken Block has died in a snowmobile accident in Utah at the age of 55.
Block’s Hoonigan Racing team confirmed his death in a statement on Instagram on Monday.
The statement read, “It is with our deepest regrets that we can confirm that Ken Block has passed away in a snowmobile accident today.
“Ken was a visionary, a pioneer and an icon. And most importantly a father and a husband. He will be incredibly missed.
“Please respect the family’s privacy this time as they grieve.”
Block was a competitive rally driver in series such as Rally America and Global Rallycross. He was mostly known for his “Gymkhana” video series on YouTube.
The 10-part series, in which he performed daring racing feats, earned him nearly two million subscribers according to the BBC.
Block also co-founded the skate-wear clothing brand DC Shoes.
