I was really big into X-Games back in the 90's; sadly, I rarely get a chance to see them, or even pay attention to them anymore. Mirra was the "one-to-beat" every year, along with Mat Hoffman, in BMX.

Lotta people are saying this might have been caused by brain damage due to injuries (American football fans know all too well about this). I hope more research is put into CTE, to prevent future cases
