Hello,
Chris Darnell, driver/pilot of probably the most famous jet truck in the world: SHOCKWAVE was killed in a show accident in Michigan Saturday July 2nd 2022. The truck was doing a pass at about 300 MPH. It seems there was an "uncommanded" parachute deployment or some sort of problem that resulted in lost of control.
Chris is the son of Neil Darnell, creator and owner of Shockwave and both shared driving duties on the shows.
RIP Chris Darnell.
Thanks,
Ismael
