From Jesse's forum:
Friends, we suffered a great loss in the strongman community last evening. The Sequim Crew was doing what they do. Training hard and particularly training Jesse for the WSM contest in Anaheim. He died quickly and painlessly.
The squat set was as follows:
230kg x 8
190kg x 8
150kg x 8
110kg x 8
70kg x 8
Followed immediately by:
600# tire flip
265# stone load
All of this was done with no rest between sets. Rack, pull, go
At the completion of these sets Jesse laid on his back, on the cold floor like normal. Breck and Sarge noticed that his breathing was laborious. Jesse became incoherent and stopped breathing. We administered cpr, called 911 and continued to resusitate until paramedics arrived. They set up the defibrillator, epinephrin, to no avail. He was worked on for over an hour between Breck, Sarge and the paramedics.
These are the facts as it happened. We are deeply saddened by this tragic loss. We appreciate your support and prayers.
The Sequim Crew

TweetRIP, now all the horror stories will come out that this killed him or that killed him. He should be remembered for who he was, once again RIP big man.
TweetWow, that's awful! Man, who would have thought that a 27 year old heart would have went like that. I know it happens but you would think if he does that kind of workout he would be conditioned for it. Damn, that's just awful. He seemed like a great guy on the strong man comp.
RIP brother!
TweetDamn, thats stuff we never like to hear. My condolonces to the family.
TweetR.I.P
TweetRIP he was the American hope since Bill. This is a sad day.
