#2 zombie_babies Jun 04, 2009 13:23:36	They say he hung himself. But it happened in Bangkok so who knows. Apparently he used to party pretty hard, though, so maybe those demons finally caught up to him. His TV shows were a part of my childhood and a small part of what led me to take up martial arts 19 or so years ago. It's odd hearing that he's gone.
#3 Mad_Jack Jun 04, 2009 17:49:14	Another article... R.I.P. Man, of all the people to go... He's one of those guys everybody thought would live forever.
#4 Shiftkitty Jun 04, 2009 17:54:58	I never watched 'Kung Fu' very much, although my father loved that show. I was probably too young to appreciate it. I remember him more from "Wild West Tech". It was shocking news.
#5 archyneir Jun 04, 2009 17:58:16	Never heard o' him 'til I watched the 6o'clock news today. Sad that he died though, that's never pleasant. I suppose he was before my time, but then again, I don't often give a high faluting about celebrities or sports stars. Still, sad to hear that a life passed away, but that's life after all.
#6 stealthmarmot Jun 04, 2009 20:55:54	He didn't die. He's just too badass to need a body anymore.
#7 Greater_Lammasu Jun 04, 2009 21:02:06	I just saw an emotionally distraught Quentin Tarantino on Larry Kind Live. I found it rather upsetting.
#8 1_ton_ghost Jun 05, 2009 15:01:12	Damn it! What the Hell is going on? One minute you're back on top of things and have a kick ass movie, the next, well... Thanks for the post GrtrLmsu, nj, though I'm more than a little put out. If they make a press release about the "why" (I'm curious as can be myself), please keep us posted. No Quivering Palm/5-finger exploding heart technique anymore...
#9 zombie_babies Jun 05, 2009 15:08:00	Not so fast! This may have been ... uhh ... an ... embarrassing accident.
#10 crofter Jun 05, 2009 15:36:48	And then people wonder why I don't really care about sexuality...
#11 Dralenan Jun 06, 2009 3:21:08	Not so fast! This may have been ... uhh ... an ... embarrassing accident. Yeah, the location of the knots is kind of...suggestive? Poor guy...
#12 Greater_Lammasu Jun 06, 2009 4:46:40	Damn. it. Play one game at a con and I come back to this.
#13 the_shaman Jun 06, 2009 6:53:34	Pity, I loved the Kung Fu series... and he looked so badass in them. RIP, old master
#14 turalisj Jun 06, 2009 20:23:49	He didn't die. He's just too badass to need a body anymore. That's right. He's now haunting Chuck Norris. One is gonna die a washed up actor, the other didn't (die as a washed up actor that is) edit: I read part of that article ZB '....with rope around hists neck, wrists, and genitalia...'
#15 oxybe Jun 07, 2009 10:37:03	Looks like he may have had some serious fetishes... I would hate to die in the middle of something like that... how embarrassing... seeing as how you'd be dead, i doubt you'd mind much :P unless you believe in the afterlife. then you're embarrassed for eternity or resurrection/reincarnation.
#16 Alter_Boy Jun 07, 2009 21:34:21	Wherever he is, he's probably rocking out with Michael Hutchinson from INXS.
#17 ciaran Jun 07, 2009 22:35:02	I just heard the "extra" part of the story this morning and someone brought up Michael Hutchinson too. So much for suicide, huh?
#18 Greater_Lammasu Jun 07, 2009 22:35:31	From what I understand that was a rumor. He really killed himself on purpose. so yeahhhhhhhhhhhh.
#19 Alter_Boy Jun 08, 2009 0:12:15	From what I understand that was a rumor. He really killed himself on purpose. so yeahhhhhhhhhhhh. It boggles the mind that someone would need to juice up a tragic suicide. Here's hoping that's what happened here. Given he died in Thailand, I expect he was killed by gangs/police.
#20 turalisj Jun 08, 2009 2:40:35	If he was, then they did a hell of a job sneaking in and hiding the several dozen bodies :D
#21 zombie_babies Jun 08, 2009 9:35:42	From what I've read, it's not a rumor. Literally every story makes mention of it. There was even a pic leaked in Thailand showing what appeared to be DC in the position the articles have indicated he was in. It's bad enough that his family is likely going to sue over it (invasion of privacy and for causing embarrassment). Fortunately, they are also going to have the body looked at once it gets back. Source.
#22 demiteddybear Jun 08, 2009 9:58:05	Well, apparently he was killed while investigating a secret society of kung fu assassins http://uk.movies.yahoo.com/08062009/5/carradine-killed-kung-fu-assassins-0.html
#23 turalisj Jun 08, 2009 10:05:19	Everyone know's that Jackie Chan is the leader of the Kung-Fu assassins in Asia. In America, we have Chuck Norris leading the assassins.
#24 Greater_Lammasu Jun 08, 2009 10:08:51	I was refereeing to Michael Hutchinson. David Carradine clearly did commit said deed.
#25 zombie_babies Jun 08, 2009 10:11:47	Why would CN lead the KFA? He's not a KF dood. He invented his own martial art which wasn't even derived from KF. Geez.
#26 zombie_babies Jun 08, 2009 10:14:38	I was refereeing to Michael Hutchinson. David Carradine clearly did commit said deed. Oh. Holy crap. My bad. :embarrass
