Ken Block is an inspiration to all petrolheads, a guy that could do almost anything with a car - insane control, total bravery and unbelievable skill.
There were so many aspects to his professional life - shoe designer, world rally driver, X games competitor, designer of EPIC cars and YouTube sensation.
For me personally - he wasn’t just a true racer, he was a pioneer of motorsport content creation and showed us all what was possible.
So we’re going to go over his life, show what made him so great as well as some of his INCREDIBLE cars.
You may know Ken Block from watching the WRC, the Dirt franchise of video games or the incredible Gymkhana videos - but Ken Block actually started out in life wanting to be a skateboarder - growing up in Long Beach, California.
But once his family moved to San Diego or the ‘middle of nowhere’ as he called it, he started to mess around with dirt bikes. This would start his obsession with extreme sports that would define his life.
