It looks like Kelly Mcgarry has died.

Just saw stuff on instagram from Andreu Lacaundaguy and Mike Clarke, no details but seens to be the case.

I saw the same, no details anywhere yet. Truly sad, seemingly a great guy and a real talent!

Me too but I think it is. Its a sad day. He was awesome and well respected and well liked.

I have looked for more confirmation but nothing. Its only just appeared on instagram. I did spot a comment about a possible Moto crash but google will not provide any more info!

It looks like it's been a medical event.

Sounds like some sort of heart attack rather than a bad crash? Either way shit news, balls bigger than melons.

Terrible shame. Wonder if the cardiac arrest was related to him binning his moto in a fair big way (by his own account) the day before.

Sad news indeed. I read that it may have been a heart attack but not sure if it was the precursor to him crashing or a result of the crash. I hope for the sake of the sport it wasn't a trick gone wrong.

I feel sadder about this than any of the other high profile deaths 2016 has ushered in ๐Ÿ™

Horrible news but serves as a reminder as to how extreme our sport can be,doesn't matter what level your at when it goes wrong it goes wrong quickly and the consquences can be very serious. But I love this sport to much.
RIP Kelly McGarry my thoughts are with your family at this sad times

Loved his lines, loved his bike smashing technique, loved his stupid hair and his infectious grin. Big shame.

fk it. Gutted. I had massive respect to him. They guy was harder than nails and immensely brave. I thought he was unbreakable.
He sat by us at a restaurant at Megavalanche 2014. Big lad and looked humble and friendly.

He dodged what would have been certain death for us mere mortals so many times persuing greatness - his annual rampage explosions of dust, that ridiculous china red bull sky gate ragdoll.
I assumed he would live forever!
