Rapper Jon James McMurray Falls To Death While Filming Stunt On Plane’s Wing

On Saturday, 34-year-old Canadian rapper, Jon James McMurray died while performing a stunt while rapping and walking on a wing of a plane. 

British Columbia’s Coroners Service said that McMurray died while working with a team that was making videos of airplane and parachuting stunts. 

McMurray’s management team in a statement said that the rapper had been training “intensively” for the stunt, but as he began to perform the stunt he moved farther out onto the wing and the small Cessna went into a downward spiral. 

“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,” the statement continued. 

The pilot was able to gain control and land the plane safely.

According to McMurray’s management team, McMurray was once an accredited professional skier but gave up the snow to pursue a music career after having multiple injuries, including a broken back and shattered heel.
