Ken Block was a rally racer who started as a rally racer at the age of 37. We lost him on 2nd Jan 2023, he died while riding his snowmobile. But most of you might not know who ken block is, only car enthusiasts would know him. But most of you would recognise him with his stunts around the world. He started the Hoonigan racing company in 2010 after joining hands with Ford. Which he joined after parting away with Subaru. Ken Block showed his brilliant skills in his Gymkhana videos.
You can find out about his life on youtube or other articles, I was a big fan of his stunts at Gymkhana. There were 10 Gymkhana videos in Total. Ken Block was 40 years old when he released the first Gymkhana video in 2008. Though I started following him after his Dubai Gymkhana 8th edition which was in the year 2015.

Conclusion
We lost a big inspiration in the car community. He was so cool with his car stunts, it was just very peaceful to watch. I personally could never meet the guy, but after Gymkhana 8 which is the point when I started following him, I always watched his videos and the pure skill he showed in those videos.
