Huang Guanjun (Chinese: 黄关军; pinyin: Huáng Guānjūn; 1987 – 22 May 2021) was a Chinese marathon runner; he died in the Gansu ultramarathon disaster.
Huang was the champion in the men's hearing-impaired marathon at China's 2019 National Paralympic Games.[1][2][3][4] He died on 22 May 2021, at the age of 34, when high winds and freezing rain struck a long-distance race in Baiyin, Gansu, China. Twenty other runners died in the tragedy.[5]
He had impaired hearing after an "injection error" when he was one year old, and also could not speak.[6][7] Having difficulty finding employment, he had, according to his friends, "joined races over the years in the hopes of winning some prize money".[1]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
