didn't see it posted.

Ariel Clark, son of 'Christmas Story' & 'Porky's' producer Bob Clark, died Tuesday with his father in a car accident on PCH.

LA Times only mention of his tricking/freerunning was:
"Ariel Clark, who also went by Ariel Hanrath-Clark, was an avid musician, juggler, gymnast and card dealer, Dodier said. While studying music at Santa Monica College, he came to classes for weeks with his leg in a cast after breaking it while turning cartwheels on the Santa Monica Pier, music professor David Goodman said."

Video of Ariel:

only reason i knew is they said on the news last night that Ariel made "internet movies" and showed a couple clips of his youtube vids.

He had attended a few PKCali jams and Gym sessions.

Memorial Services will be held tomorrow.

nah it wasn't their fault, they were in a Lexus and got plowed into by an illegal alien in a Chevy Tahoe.

My heart sank when I saw this :( I met him on my first trip down south when I met all the guys from PKCali. He was a nice guy and was definitely the best tricker there! Way better than anything I was capable of.

I didn't know him well, but it still makes me sick :mad:

Jeez, well, these things happen. I was just in a car accident last week, and I was glad to have walked away from it unharmed. I know everyone isn't so lucky, but the most we can do is pay our respects and be glad we're still able to live our lives to the fullest.
