Add one more! Agree that both Taylor and Ken are amazing. Please thank Taylor for his service, sacrifice and inspiration!

Great video and story to watch anytime, but especially right before Memorial Day.

That is one serious badass. How many people ***** if the barista screws up their coffee, and this guy is still grabbing life by the stem after sacrificing so much of himself. Literally.

Good on Ken to give him the lift. I'd hope any other idols would step up and do the same for Taylor and others like him.

Thanks for sharing.

wow, that was seriously amazing!! I literaly had a smile from ear to ear knowing how much fun that must have been for Taylor... Ken Block was probably thinking to him self "Ive seen bobs pop out while drifting but never legs." Shows allot about what kinda guy Ken Block realy is!

All the best to him for the future.

Plus 1 for Petonic. Let us all remember the reason for Memorial Day. This is living proof of the sacrafice others give to allow us to have what we have.

Have a great weekend all.

Great story. Thank for sharing. Please extend a huge thanks to Taylor for me. I am a big supporter of Helmets to Hardhats. There are quite a few good things available today for our serviceman and woman when they come back to civi life but its the support of friends and family that really helps the most.
