On Tuesday morning I woke to find a message from my friend Nicole informing me of Ryan Dunn's death.
We had always been the boys biggest fans growing up with him being one of our favourites.
Now don't get me wrong, I find Jackass funny just as much as the next fellow but it was Viva La Bam that I really loved. Seeing all those boys being silly together, men with no plans or intentions to ever grow up was so enviable.
They made me want to be a boy and have carefree, drama-less relationships that I assumed boys had with each other.
I was legitimately saddened by Dunn's passing. Especially when reading and seeing interviews with April and Phil and Bam. In a way we felt like we were part of their family. Like April was Wendy looking after all the lost boys who never wanted to grow up.
One day soon Nicole and I will get drunk and watch Viva La Bam. It will be sad, but we a bound to smile soon enough.
R.I.P man.
