Apparently the accident happened when he was riding down a slope in Utah, the snowmobile somehow lost control and ended up on top of Block. He was riding with a group, but was alone when the accident happened.

Block was one of the co-founders of DC Shoes back in 1994, he became a rally driver in 1995. He was also known to millions of people with his epic Youtube content, where he would do all kinds of driving stunts. He was basically a legend who definitely lived life to the fullest. Definitely a huge loss for the community.
