  3. Paul Says:

    rip

    how did this happen ?

  4. 4life Says:

    He took his own life, Not the best way to leave this world. If anything rather selfish on his friends and family. SO R.I.P but I wish you could see what your friends and fam are going though.

  5. mike Says:

    RIP
    fuck, this year really sucks :(
    anyone know what happen?

  6. Lukas Says:

    @4life…if you don´t know why and under which circumstances it happened just show your respect and keep the rest to yourself.

    Rest in peace Sean Callahan.

  7. Travis Stewart Says:

    Taken out like a coward. If he took his own life, he’s a chump.

  8. Travis Stewart Says:

    there is no excuse for that ish.

  9. Mark Steffen Says:

    Travis, 4life, please keep your opinions on this matter to yourself. Even as a friend of his, I can’t fully understand the “why.” There’s no basis for you to go passing judgment.

    Have some respect for a rollerblader.

    Thanks for the thoughts, everyone. Chicago will miss him.

  10. Daniel Lambert Says:

  13. moo moo Says:

  14. Noun Says:

    did he rea;;y suicide?

  15. Urbn^nja Says:

    I feel sorry for him. I don’t really support suicide myself. So i must especially pray for his friends and family that they will be able to live and move on and will not be adversely affected by his decision. But still really sorry to hear this happened to him.

  16. kyskater4life Says:

    man fuck travis stewart sean was a kickass individual i skated with him a couple in ky and indiana and he always pushed me to be a better skater his style was amazing. if you dont know who sean was then dont say nothing about what happened.

  17. Tim Says:

  18. sk8rs_s0uL Says:

    wow. why man? that sucks….r i p whoever you are.

  19. ras trent Says:

    you little kids sittin in you’re momma’s house on your computers have no idea what is going through a persons head or what kind of hardships someone is going through when they make a decision to take their own life. You don’t know shit, and I never met the kid but one thing is apparent from the edits – he was a dope rollerblader. So keep your opinion to yourself and pay your respects to the man.

    RIP Sean Callahan

  20. X Says:

    he was a great creative skater RIP

  21. Mr. Bigs Says:

    Everything post on this website has nothing but little shit talking idiots on it. Makes me sick. The guy who runs this site should either disable comments or quit doing it all together.

    R.I.P. Sean Callahan

  22. Jake Says:

    Like Ras said.

    Jees. Can’t believe some of those comments.

    Really refreshing skating in those edits!

  23. JParker Says:

    That lad seemed a like a talanted rollerboy. I thought Seans sections were mint, he looked to have a raw,agro style.Steeze to that.Its reminds me a lot of how my mates seem to roll.It hits home when you think of how his family and friends must feel.No friend or family member wants that to happen to someone they love or are friends with. Reading on here what seemed to have happened to him makes me feel for the guy. He must have not been able to have seen a way out of what he was going through. Some people on here should have a word with them selves for what they are saying and show a bit of respect.
    Sean slap,fist to you mate sick tricks, R.I.P

  24. Guy Says:

    RIP Sean Callahan

  25. Will Cosgrove Says:

    i’m meeting up with my buddies in boston this weekend and we’ll dedicate the session to you.

  33. JP Says:

  40. andrew conners Says:

    Yellow and orange are awesome
    sorry for his friends and family
    rip man

  41. RCH Says:

    complete lack of disrespect for anybody dead or alive, rollernews you fucking suck.

  42. Fred Castro Says:

    yeah, suicide is a complicated choice. You go to dark places, its like a limbo, and you dont know that you are dead.

    It takes some time to figure it out, and that can be years, because the time and space in the universe and the fourth dimension, and all the other dimensions, isn’t like the time on earth and the third dimension, our world.

    Time can pass by really quick, or really slow it depends on your perception, and if you are disturbed… well, you get the picture…

    its like you get punished for having “forced exit” the game… its kinda bad to speak about this in a time like this, and I feel so bad, cause a friend of ours has just done the same thing here in brazil, we are all very sorry for his loss.

    I only feel the urge to speak about this because, I have gone through real hard times, and I know sometimes you go down so hard and you feel so lonely that you feel the only scape is death itself…

    one of our friends have commited suicide yesterday, he was also a skater, and he won the latin x games here in brazil, in rio de janeiro. we feel so sorry about this…

    I dont know if I sound foolish, but I really feel for them so I had to speak my mind. Its so sad, I went in here for some skate videos, I was shocked,
    its so unbelievable…

    So, to whoever is reading this and goes through hard times, know that, suicide is the most complicated choice to ever make..

    Dont ever do that…dont even think about it, it will surely make things worse, so try to solve them here, while you still know who you are and what you came to do… try to stick to that… and know that,

    after the goddam storm comes the sun… and its no bullshit, you dont believe the kind of shit that goes down here in brazil… and I’ve seen miracles.. dont loose hope.

    I’m sorry if I wrote too much, and sorry for my bad english.

    Fred

  43. that other Says:

    Wow. Those sections were AMAZING. I absolutely loved everyone of them…Reminded me of Micah Yeager a bit. The true toe-roll on the U was absurd (in a good way) and the last two tricks of the last section were badass. And good choice of Xiu Xiu to Joe Esquivel.

    I’m very sorry about the loss of this truly inspiring skater. You will be missed and I hope that somehow you know that I will be watching these vids before every time I go blade.

    Rest In Peace My Friend.

  44. OliBenet Says:

    RIP Sean Callahan

  45. wow Says:

    how exactly did he kill himself??

  46. Simon Says:

    these comments should be removed

    Its not nice…these edits were put here to remember how the lad skated. Not find out what happened to him or anything. I presume some of his friends will read these comments. Not good

  47. billy doyle Says:

    travis stewart – fuck you and your shitty little hateful life.

    RIP you steezy bastard.

  48. Joe Says:

    “It takes some time to figure it out, and that can be years, because the time and space in the universe and the fourth dimension, and all the other dimensions, isn’t like the time on earth and the third dimension, our world.”

    What the f u c k are you talking about…ROFLMAO!!!

  49. Wrong Turn Says:

    Suicide is selfish

  50. Chinaski Says:

    Wow rollernews even hates on suicide. Fuck these comments. I don’t even know what I expected to see.

    His skating was amazing. Way more interesting than a lot of sections coming out now.

  51. respect Says:

    very good skater

  52. johnc Says:

    that comment from fred castro… have you killed yourself? why try to explain suicide in such a sci fi kinf of way? just say: dont do it, period. what the fuck….!??
    btw, that guy is a fukin good skater, so many cool tricks.

  53. Judi Says:

    Hey everyone, this is Sean’s mom, thanks for all the nice comments.
    Even though I don’t agree with what Sean did, we loved him and will miss him always

  54. The Dude Says:

    Allways a shame when a young person sees no other way out of his missery. RIP

  55. sk8rs_s0uL Says:

    I hope you and youre family are okay Judi and the loss is there but he wont be gone…he’ll be close to your heart as im sure he was before just in a different state… hopefully a good one…. R I P dude.

  56. Dagan collins Says:

    Sean was a good friend and a great skater. It dont matter how he did it. All that matters is an awesome person is gone. May his family be at peace and all my prayers to them. May you roll in our hearts forever brother. You will missed more than you will ever know.

  57. mousley Says:

    rip Mr. Callahan

  60. eville Says:

    i skated with through high school. he was a great person, and an amazing skater. I can’t believe this happened. I just hope he’s in a better place now. Rest in peace Sean.

  61. abel Says:

    RIP to a great and unique skater. I really enjoyed the sections.

  62. judi Says:

    this is sean’s mom again. we are going to have a service in st. louis on wednesday nov. 25 and a memorial service in newburgh, indiana on saturday nov. 28. because we wanted to bring him home to st. louis and this happened in illinois it is taking more time than expected. there will be an annoucement in the st. louis post dispatch and the evansville courier & press most likely on sunday. anyone is welcome to come to either service.

    once again thanks for everyones comments and for posting the videos, as a mom it was always hard for me to watch sean skate live, always thinking he would get hurt, so it’s great to see these videos again and seeing how amazing he was.

    i love him and miss him so much

  63. Jack Says:

    dude from going through depression myself I can say that people should shut the fuck up before making condescending comments on someone elses choices. Sometimes life can be hard to face so leave him alone. Not everyone is hella insensitive some people have complex emotions.

  64. sk8rs_s0uL Says:

    R I P Sean Callahan, Dalmo Travaglini, Derrick Kennedy, James Short, Richard Taylor and Brian Scott Jr. R I P

    and Jack were here with ya man… dont be a part of this list.

  65. sk8rs_s0uL Says:

    oo and theres a few more people I didnt mention due to lack of name knowledge… R I P guys…youll be remembered

  66. Scott Wilcoxson Says:

    Some seriously raw creative skating mixed with hammers right there. Looks like you had a lot of fun in this life Sean. I’ll see you in the next…

  67. very nice Says:

    Whats weird is I got the Orange video like a week and a half ago, before then – never heard of him. Dope skater. Prayers go out to the family and friends. R.I.P.

  68. :| Says:

    Oh my good :| R.I.P

  69. Kelsey Cain Says:

    No one here would say anything about him being weak or a chump. I went to school with this guy. I hate hearing this, but either way, he was a good person. Only he knows the reason for his choice.

  70. Kelsey Cain Says:

    No one here would say anything about him being weak or a chump, if they knew him. I went to school with this guy. I hate hearing this, but either way, he was a good person. Only he knows the reason for his choice.

  71. Dirty Lakeshore Says:

    Great skater

    No one should disrespect his choice in the end as no one will know what he was dealing with in his mind.

    R.I.P.

  72. nhrb Says:

    i saw this on a fixed gear bike forum, i didn’t believe it. my condolences to his fam & friends

  73. rip sean Says:

  74. Leo Says:

    Hey

    Dalmo was a very good friend of mine, a very nice person, great skater and a great human being, I know what was going through his life , I spent his last days with him, and I can’t tell you all that are calling him selfish, coward or whatever, you have no idea what you are talking about, how can you judge someone witjou even knowing him? So show a bit of respect ok? and for those who dont think the same way as these idiots thanks for the support!

    sry for the bad english guys
