    This sucks, just after that rad skateboarding thread. RIP Old Dirty Harold. I might have to bust out my Kids DVD & watch it again. Harold Hunter was a fine skater.

    Does anybody have an additional source? What'd he pass from? I can't imagine someone thinking "I'm about to go."

    FUCK!

    Man, he is dude! When I was growing up I'd always look out for him in the 411VM's. Then one magical day I rented Kids without knowing he was in it... and damn.

    I forget which video, but wasn't he skateboarding to Cradle To The Grave (this may have been 411 #13 or something)?

    RIP

    The kid who played Casper in that movie, Justin Pierce, committed suicide a few years back. Eerie and tragic.

    RIP

    I don't know what he passed from, just that he died in his sleep.

    Rest In Peace.................to a true NYC star.

    Money would come to my bar when I was spinnin'.

  • RIP harold
    only hung out with him a few times. for such a crazy guy, he was actually a pretty cool dude.one night i let him and most of the zoo team crash at my apt since i had an extra bedroom with nothing in it and a couple of couchs. him and this guy akira stayed up all night playin dice. i remember pangstarr always yelling at harold for one thing or another. it was straight up comedy to me at the time. before they left harold gave me a pair of zoo cargo shorts that he had. i had to wash them about 5 times to get all the sand out of the pockets.

    Fuck! This is terrible news. Another huge loss.

    I had the pleasure of skating with Harold many years back when I was in high school. I made a trip to NY with some of my skate crew and we of course went to the Brooklyn Banks. Harold rolls in after we'd been there for a while looking all scruffy. Dude had mad pop and killed that place. Fucking hilarious dude too. He had everybody in stitches the whole day acting all crazy.

    RIP Harold

  • dang

    Rest In Peace


    Also,

    R.I.P. to another skater homie and friend who just passed mysteriously.

    TREVOR PRESCOTT

    A great dude who will always have my respect, hate to see you go.

  • FUCKING TRAGIC! What what makes even worse was that it was because of drugs.
    VERY VERY SAD.

    It's too bad that even with all those people on his jock, dude still overdosed.

    Lots of sketched out, art/skate/graff flake-os running around NYC these days.....(aNYthing, Supreme, Alife)......Sad events like these usually reveal the unacknowledged and repressed realities lots a people live in. Seems to contradict a whole lot of bullshit being done out there. SAD!


    RIP Harold Hunter.
