Damn that sucks. RIP bro Mirra.
Holy fuck, this is totally unexpected, R.I.P.
Fuck you 2016
Damn…
He was one of the greats back when I was into the sport.
I liked his bike game
R.I.p breh
I was never a fan of Mirra, but this sucks regardless. Never would of thought he would go out this way. RIP
Dave mirra Matt Hoffman was part of the reason I begged my mom to let me bmx as a kid. Shit really hits close to home. Rip to his family man jesus
Damn. Rest in peace bro. RIP
Shit is crazy. You got to think that dude had mad concussions over the years, I doubt that’s unrelated.
My first bike was a bmx and loved it because of him. RIP. Wonder why he shot himself?
Too many dead famous people and it’s only February. There’s still a long way to go.
Just heard this at Costco while standing in line at the food court. Some guy on his phone was like, “Oh, Dave Mirra died…”
I keep getting him and Tony Hawk confused. RIP
2016: “If you’re over 25…fuck your childhood”
dude…he was one of the top 3 people who made me wanna learn bmx tricks. i was always too scared for jumps, so i learned flat stuff. Local kids made a bmx park in the back of an apartment complex when x games was at its height in the early 2000s. One of the safest spots in my neighborhood. Dude had such a big influence on my childhood.
You gotta be kidding me! The person who says that 2016 isn’t fucking around… this is a understatement.
Many years ago when I was in elementary school, I saw a commercial for a game based on him. It was pretty funny from what I recall…
Damn it. This is one hell of a way to start the year off.
R.I.P. Dave Mirra
Used to remember Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX (on Playstation) and some shots of his performance. Sad sight to see :\ Hope all is well for his family.
Damn, 2016 is taking all of the celebrities and we are only into 5 weeks of 2016!!!
Lol what a bitch ass way to go out, saying his wife is his rock then blowing his head off
I’m having a hard time believing that it was a suicide…shame.
I was going to say the same thing. Just like with the NFL continuous blows go the head can have progressively deleterious effects on the brain that can go unnoticed.
R.I.P.
Suicidal ideation is a hell of a thing, and for most people who suffer from it it isn’t at all tied to how objectively good your life is.
If it was a suicide then dont understand why people are giving condolences.
