Skateboarding stories don’t come much more intense than Arto Saari’s. But then that’s probably because it’s less a skateboarding story, and more a story about life and death.
In the latest episode of Let It Kill You, the Finnish-born skate icon opens up on everything from the trials of moving to the US to follow his dream as a young teenager (despite not speaking a lick of English) and nearly dying shortly afterwards from brain injuries, to his budding new career as a photographer, and all the juice in-between.
