RIP Jessi Combs

[JatoTheRipper]

If you've ever watched PowerBlock on TV or even MythBusters you are probably familiar with Jessi Combs. She was a bad ass woman. Jessi was rare because of that fact that she was a builder, fabricator and racer. There aren't many men that can do all of that, but she was a woman that could and that made her a unicorn.

Jessi crashed and was killed on August 27, 2019 while driving her 52,000 horsepower jet-engined car. She was attempting to break her personal land speed record of 483.227 MPH in hopes to break the all-time women's record of 512 MPH.

This is extremely sad news for anybody that loves motor sports.

Rest in peace, Jessi Combs

There is a silver lining, she died doing what she loved and what more can one ask for.

I'm sure in those last few moments of terror she was thinking "at least I'm doing what I love".
