VERNON, BC. (THECOUNT) — Jon James, a Canadian rapper, was killed during a music video shoot when a stunt atop an airplane wing went wrong, fox8 is reporting.
During a music video shoot in Vernon, British Columbia on Saturday, the 34-year-old rapper — whose full name is Jon James McMurray — was walking on the wing of a Cessna as it was in the air.
He walked too far out on the wing and made the small aircraft go into a downward spiral, his management team said.
“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,” said Ryan Desrochers with the management team told CNN in a statement. source
The pilot of the plane was able to control the plane and land safely. No one else was injured, reported CNN partner CBC.
