If I were a famous person, especially a Hollywood famous person, I would never stay in hotels. I'd have my own pimped up trailer with me all the time.

Why? Because famous people are always found dead in hotel rooms. Don't know why, but that's where they die.

I'd love to see some stats on this.

Okay, he was found with rope around his neck and genitals and this all the story we get?!?

Okay, looking further, I have found some conflicting news items here and here.

Interesting...

funny how the wikipedia article suggests suicide.

What about autoerotic asphyxiation? Wouldn't that be just as if not more likely?

Wisdom from Master Poe:
RIP Grasshopper

Rest in peace Mr. Carradine.

Certainly suggested by this.

RIP

RIP, Cane.

This is quite sad news. Rest in peace, Mr. Carradine

Also, we need to keep our eyes open. Famous people die in threes as the conspiracy theory says.

Wow, just wow.
RIP grasshopper.

I grew up watching Kung-Fu and idolizing him. I was so happy when he was finally granted a great role that he could be proud of in Kill Bill. It seems pretty obvious that it was auto-erotic asphyxiation, tragically, with the news thinking somehow killing yourself is less humiliating so that's the story they are using. I'm sad.

His obituary is here.

RIP, David. You enriched my life.

:( this is very sad, i'm a huge fan...

Gone Beyond Beyond!

HAIL THE GOER!!

This thread got crazy karma.

I think Uma Thurman killed him.

Rest in peace.

You'll be snatching pebbles from hands on the other side now.

They're calling this a suicide on our local news. I guess autoerotic asphyxiation is too big of a concept for the news hour.

The AP (biggest provider of international content for all news organizations in America) report does not give more details other than a hanging "per respect for the family."

I don't have a problem with that.
