The cause of Duckworth’s death is “pending the results of an autopsy.” At this moment, authorities are also not clear on how long Duckworth had been dead. However, it has also been learned that he was seen the day before he was found.
After graduating from Tufts University, Duckworth began his career by participating in MTV’s The Real World: Key West in 2006. Then he went on to participate in six seasons of The Challenge — The Duel, The Gauntlet III, Cutthroat, Rivals, All Stars 2 and All Stars 3 . Out of six, he was crowned winner of Cutthroat and Rivals. Apart from participating in the reality shows, he was also a middle school and high school teacher.
Before Ryan Knight’s death came as a shock, several contestants associated with the show had also suffered tragic deaths. In 2002, Michelle Parma died in a car crash. Ryan Knight died in 2014 from an apparent accidental overdose, while Diem Brown lost her battle with ovarian cancer that same year. Dave Mirra died in 2016 in an apparent suicide.
