Motocross star Jayden Archer, known as "Jayo," has tragically passed away at the age of 27 while attempting a dangerous trick. The Australian rider gained fame for being the first motocross biker to land a triple backflip in competition and was reportedly planning to attempt a world-first quadruple backflip before his untimely death.
Archer was attempting the stunt during a training session in Melbourne when the accident occurred on Wednesday, February 21. Nitro Circus, an action sports group, paid tribute to Archer on social media, describing him as the "epitome of passion" and praising his hard work and determination.
Archer made headlines in 2022 when he successfully landed the first-ever freestyle motocross triple backflip during a contest at the Nitro World Games in Brisbane. After landing the trick, he expressed his profound joy, saying, "I cannot describe this feeling. This is so much more than a trick to me. I’ve dedicated my entire life the last three years to this moment."
During the celebration of his achievement, Archer proposed to his girlfriend Beth King, with whom he was planning to marry later this year. His death is a profound loss to the motocross community, and he will be remembered for his incredible talent, passion, and positive influence on those around him.
