Paul Walker has died in a wreck according to reports. He was one of my favorite actors. Sad news. http://m.nydailynews.com/1.1533786

Well dadgum! I thought his movies were pretty good and he seemed to have a bright future ahead of him.

[RED333]

WOW, up and coming and no gone, Prays for him and his loved ones.

 He didn't die, It was a hoax. I'll try to find the link

Fast and Furious.

Maybe a little too much

Unless the hoax was a hoax

The hoax wasn't legit.

 

He really did pass away ~ roughly 3:30pm Pacific Time.  Its been confirmed via several actual new sources.

 Thats what I just realized when I went back to find the link.

It's not a hoax, he's dead. He was a pretty bad actor but he seemed like a decent guy and I liked his movies.

. He was a pretty bad actor but he seemed like a decent guy and I liked his movies. 

 

That's about an appropriate epitaph.

Ya, he apparently did a lot of charity work and I imagine he's a guy I'd enjoy having a beer with. Sad to hear him go so young. I hope the impact took him, burning to death has to be one of the worst ways to go.

[xRUSTYx]

it was either him or a friend driving his Porsche GT ... 

 

Its an awesome car ~ but as you can see, pretty much a death trap if wrapped around a tree or pole like what is being reported.

 

[Erik88]

News are reporting that he was a passenger. That's a beautiful ride.

play stupid games, win stupid prizes.  I can't even imagine how fast they were going to cause this.

What stupid game were they playing?

[I_Like_Pie]

doesn't take much tree to ruin your day.

 

I can just see the James Dean comparisons start on the newswires...

[Sam1]

What stupid game were they playing?

 

obviously severely speeding, racing someone else, not sure but it will all come out soon enough.  Those GT's have a really good cockpit in them, and the only thing left on that car is a wheel.

 

I'll be surprised if they were doing 100mph or less at the time they crashed.

[TripleDigitRide]

If I had a car with 600+ HP and a top speed of 200+, I couldn't promise mine wouldn't suffer a similar fate. I hope it was the crash that took them. R.I.P, fellas.

A slightly different angle.

 

[Guest RebelCowboySnB]

Sad. Joy riding in a car at a car show that they have never drove? Or did the driver just out drive his skill set trying to impress him? You can assume by looking at the car that they had no chance of making that 15mph corner at the speed they were running...

[Murgatroy]

That is a shame. Horrible actor, great guy, loved his movies.

 

But to look at it one way, he went out doing what he loved. Can't ask for a lot more than that.

[Dolomite`s Breezy]

Real sad.:(

[analog_kidd]

News is saying speed was a factor, and that the car was engulfed in flames. Bodies were burned beyond recognition.

Don't these celebrity deaths usually come in three's?

[Sam1]

there's a video of the car burning, you can find it on liveleak.
