Olha Koba, a psychologist in Kyiv, said that “anger and hate in this situation is a normal reaction and important to validate.” But it is important to channel it into something useful, she said, such as making incendiary bombs out of empty bottles.

I was pretty upset when I heard the news about Ken dying. I'd been a fan of his even before he started doing the Gymkhana videos, and I loved everything he was able to get into. But poor little Jerry was absolutely gutted. That little dude ended up crying, thinking about Ken's daughters, his family, wondering if there will be more Gymkhana videos, what will happen to the people who work for Hoonigan, what are they going through because Ken was super close to and involved with everyone there. He was really going through the emotional ringer. But he didn't cry about it in front of me, he cried about it in front of my wife. She comforted him about it, and then I talked to him about it some yesterday. Last night I had to get some heating oil, so I took Nugget with me, and we hit some gravel roads around the house, while talking about Ken, his car collection, and what might happen to all of it. Such a weird thing for a 12 year old to process.... Hell it's even weird for me.
