In 1993, alternative sports industry tycoon Ken Block decided to take a breather from his business activities and take up the sport of rally, and immediately took to the sport so well and so quickly that within a couple of years he helped put the sport on the map – and at the X Games, where won a Silver Medal – and found himself in 2008 runner up for the US Rally Championship.    All that being said, Mr. Block’s adventures have a dark and the madness all began on November 16, 2006, when Block hooked-up the Discovery Channel TV show, Stunt Junkies. 

Though Block’s highlight each year is always the much-anticipated release of his amazing Gymkhana video (installment No. 5 shot in San Francisco was released July 9th, 2012 and was viewed 5.1 million times in 24 hours!), he was also pumped with his Silver Medal in Rallycross at X Games 18 in Los Angeles. In addition Block scored some difficult points on the elite World Rally Championship (WRC) tour, with top ten finishes in Mexico and New Zealand. Block’s also featured in the late Colin McRae’s Dirt 3 video game with the Monster Energy World Rally team vehicles.
