As did Kiwi adventurer Logan Dodds and his girlfriend former bachelorette Dani Robinson.

TV and radio personality Jay Reeve had kind words to say..

This news came as such a shock to me .. still in shock. The bro bought so many together through his content, he was business savvy but most of all, was always grateful and thankful to all his supporters ! He built a legacy.

Rest easy brother -... https://t.co/khRVsu0lXF

Tom Francis took to Instagram to share a story he had about Johnny Danger.

I don’t even know what to say. When I first saw someone post something online about the crash I tried to call a bunch of times hoping like fuck you were going to answer. I don’t wanna believe this shit. I hope this is some sick joke for real. But If this is really true I want to say thank you for being one of the most down to earth straight up people I’ve known. You always showed support to me since I first met you. I remember seeing you listening to “Who’s real” on your snap chat & buzzing out when you invited me to perform at your party at the Outback Bar in Hamilton. You were the first dude that dissected my lyrics & told me how you related to it. I don’t understand why amazing people have to leave this earth so early. You were a huge inspiration to me to go out & live life on the Danger side of things. You will always be a legend to so many of us bro I really hope you call me back 😔
