Define Your Life with Former Pro Athlete + Stunt Rapper Jon James

In today's episode we talk with Former Pro Athlete turned Stunt Rapper Jon James. Jon's career began in the pro-ski world where he achieved many of the world's first including backflipping onto and off of a rail among others. The self-proclaimed "loose cannon" gives us a behind-the-scenes peek into his creative process for creating music as well as creating and training for stunts of epic proportions.

This episode was filmed in 2016 as he had just launched his music video for Hello which featured an incredible stunt that can be viewed here: YOUTUBE LINK

Sadly, Jon James passed away on October 20th, 2018 filming a stunt for his upcoming music video. He died performing an airplane stunt that included rapping while walking on the wing of the plane. He had trained intensely for this stunt but as Jon got further out onto the wing of the plane, it caused the small Cessna to go into a downward spiral that the pilot couldn’t correct. Jon held onto the wing until it was too late, and by the time he let go, he didn’t have time to pull his chute. He impacted and died instantly.

Jon was an incredibly motivated person; always smiling, encouraging everyone around him to follow their passion and live life to fullest. He filled everyone around him with positivity and never spoke poorly about another person. He truly had a heart of gold. Jon would want to be remembered as a beacon of light to follow your dreams and would want everyone to continue to be inspired through his music and life message. He is survived by Father Doug McMurray, Mother Jen McMurray, brother Jarred McMurray, wife Kali James McMurray, and countless close friends and fans alike.
