"Texas
snowmobiler Caleb Moore died today after succumbing to injuries he sustained last week at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colo., when his snowmobile flipped on top of him in a violent crash during
competition.


"This morning Caleb Moore passed away," the Moore family said in a statement through family spokeswoman Chelsea Lawson. "He will be truly missed and
never forgotten.


"The family wishes to express their deep gratitude for all the prayers and support they have received from all the fans, friends and family around the
world that Caleb has inspired."


This is the first death as a result of a competitor's sustaining injuries during competition in the 17-year reign of the X Games.


Another recent X Games competitor to succumb to serious injuries was Canadian freestyle skier Sarah Burke. The 29-year-old died on Jan. 19, 2011, nine
days after sustaining a traumatic brain injury in an accident on a half-pipe course during a training run in Utah.


Moore, a 25-year-old medal-winning athlete from Krum, Texas, had been in critical condition after developing complications in his heart and brain after
an accident last Thursday night during the Snowmobile Freestyle finals. Moore was completing a back-flip when he came up short and the skis on his sled hit the landing, causing the 450-pound
machine to flip end-over-end.


Moore went over the handlebars of the snowmobile and it came crashing down on top of him. He tumbled down the slope for several feet before coming to a
stop at the bottom, where he lay on the ground for a few minutes.

Moore eventually got up and walked off the course with help, but he was rushed to Aspen Valley Hospital with a concussion, according to an X Games
Medical report. While there, doctors discovered bleeding around Moore's heart and he was flown to St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction, Colo.


St. Mary's Hospital declined ABC News' request for comment.


Moore underwent emergency heart surgery last Friday and had since remained in intensive care. But on Sunday, the Moore family released a statement
through ABC's sister network ESPN saying, "his cardiac injury has led to a secondary complication involving his brain."


Moore's younger brother Colten Moore, 23, also competed in the Snowmobile Freestyle finals and crashed during the X Games competition. He was taken to
the hospital with a separated pelvis but was released Friday and "will not require surgery," according to Lawson.


An online
fundraiser was set up on behalf of the Moore family on Tuesday to help the family pay for medical bills. As of this writing, the fund had raised over $26,500.


Jackson "Jacko" Strong, Moore's fellow X Games snowmobile competitor, is also auctioning off his 2012 Polaris IQ 600R
snowmoblie, which he rode in competition at this year's X Games, to help benefit the Moore family.


Strong also crashed during the X Games competition last week. During his Best Trick snowmobile run, the 21-year-old Australian native let go of the
handlebars and attempted to grab the back of the sled in a midair stunt, but couldn't get a good grip and flew off of it. The snowmobile landed on its skis and raced into the crowd watching on
the sidelines. No one was seriously injured.


Both Moore brothers are decorated Winter X Games veterans, who made their debut in competitive snowmobiling in 2010 in Aspen after years of racing
ATVs.


Caleb, who has four Winter X Games medals, took home the bronze medal in Snowmobile Freestyle at last year's games, and stood next to brother Colten on
the podium, who had snagged gold".
