What a shame fred!..so young and so much goin for him. very sad!

 

[cbf]

R.I.P. He died doing what he loved at least.

In these sports it's a risk you take, and it happens way more often that you would imagine, it's just that we only usually hear of these things when it's someone famous.
Be careful out there, our bodies are very fragile...specially if you have a family at home waiting for you..hopefully he was single.. Rest in peace warrior..

 

[Greyskull]

ouch....

 

[NOKUY]

damn that sucks.....im surprised it doesnt happen more often tho.

 

[Backwoods Bud]

That sux. When you live on the edge the reaper will come calling sooner or later. It's a tragic loss.

 

[dontstepongrass]

that was a gnarly slam. no doubt in my mind he went quick and painless...

You should see the amount of people who do this on a snowboard that we don't hear about, recently I was talking to a Doctor at a local ski resort, and was amazed at the death stories..

 

[bagseed77]

nasty slam there , crazy , rip , thats was extreme

 

[love?]

At least he died doing something he loved, I imagine and hope.

RIP

 

[BadTicket]

Died doing something he loved.. I cringe when I hear people say, how do you know he wasn't bored outta his mind and just doing it for the money?
That would explain the lack of routine to pull of these stunts. I'm not trying the be the asshole here, but i was watching his run at some championship thingy from 07 or so, and he pulled of the jumps like nothing. So i'm gonna go with the bored option.

Rest in peace

 

[love?]

Yeah who knows, maybe it was a deliberate suicide, that's why I said I hope he died doing something he loved.

If you aren't trying to be an asshole then... j/k

These guys are good at what they do because they can live on the edge and keep their composure. How can you judge somebody you don't know from a couple youtube videos?

RIP

It's very sad. I had the pleasure of meeting Jeremy a few time. He was a good guy!

R.I.P. Brother...

 

[steppinRazor]

Damn that is crazy. so did the show go on or what?? would be kinda weird to keep shit goin after a fatal accident.

Any of you guys check out Nitro-Circus??
man the shit some of those fools do is 12 times crazier than that jump and half the time they crash into shit..bad asss show btw, Jackass aint got shit on them.

im just waitin till motherfuckers start fighting lions to the death!!

 

[SouthernGuerila]

All I know is if anyone says RIP to me after I pass, I'm going to come back and haunt them.

Rest In Peace, kiss my ass. Wish me the best and pray I'm in a better place. Get real!

Who is going to die young and "Rest In Peace"?

Anyway, I hope this guy's family is doing alright, as best they can at the moment. Losing someone never heals, one wound that time doesn't heal.

dude thats bullshit...he died doing what he loved, and you dont know what it means to be an athlete in an extreme sport.

it's not fukin (9-5...ohhhh wahhh i gotta drive to work today)....thats boredom.

it's 24-7, you love/live what you do or you dont do it.

call it "routine"...well "routine" will get you nowhere in such an industry, same as bmx and skating...it's about "progression".

sorry if that is hard for you to understand.

JL had a wife and friends and a family that loved him, and he was ALWAYS happy.

ok im done ranting....here is an awesome TRIBUTE VIDEO for Jeremy...I saw this one first then looked at alot of others...an theres alot...but i liked this one

A painful reminder of just how short and precious life is. I just found out a friend of mine died who I hadnt seen or talked to in a year or so. He was my neighbor until his family sold the house a year and a half ago. Same kinda kid, mid 20's rode sportbikes,raced cars, lived life on the edge. What a damn shame.anytime this happens. His poor wife and family....

 

[Lt. Herb]

Hope and prayers out to his family.
