Shane McConkey Dies at 39 :-(

As much as this sucks I can’t think of a better way to go. He was shooting the next Matchstick Productions film and it appears to be equipment failure during ski-BASE accident in the Italian Dolomites. He was one of the individuals seen in this video. Huge loss but if only we all could go doing what we love.
