Like many of the greats, I think he only got better with age. Too bad his life has ended so early.

I used to love watching Kung Fu with my dad when I was younger! This saddens me.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

:mad:Oh WTF!

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

This is sad and according to Wikipedia, their is speculation that 4chan.org is involved. I've seen that website and to me it just looked like a forum for stupid pictures and stuff and anime.

Does anyone know any reason why 4chan.org could be implicated as being a part of this tragedy?

R.I.P. Kwai Chang Caine :(

David was from a creative family of actors. I remember his father in the movie "Grapes of Wrath". From what I know David's journey continues.

RIP, this is sad news indeed

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

rip. i guess they killed Bill.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

that is wrong..but clever nonetheless.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

Reports are that he committed suicide by hanging himself. That is a bigger shock to me than dying at the age of 72.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

well, that was with all respect to the actor of course. I really enjoyed him in that flick.

"David Carradine Found Hanged"...wow...very sad. From the reports I have read this sounds very similar to what happened to Michael Hutchence of INXS (in the circumstances of his death).

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

wow. that is indeed shocking and sad.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

RIP.
His presence will be missed.

R.I.P. Grasshopper.....may your journey be complete now.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

:( I was watching Circle of Iron late last night, He was my favorite actor stared in Death Race 2000, Deathsport,Future Zone and the Kung Fu show. I never seen a DC movie I didn't like.

This is sad.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

The world was more interesting with Mr. Carradine in it. R.I.P.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

I think you, me, and David Carradine are the only people to have owned a copy of Circle of Iron.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

lol
Yeah, I just bought it again on Blu Ray. I couldn't believe how great the picture is on it.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

... :sad

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

RIP Mr. Carradine.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

He was a very good actor. Just sounds weird the way he died found hung to death in a closet in his hotel room. I guess he was fighting some demons or something. Shame that he left us still at a fairly young age.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

RIP...a true badass left this world

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

The reports coming out on several news sites is that it wasn't suicide -- it was autoerotic asphyxiation. TMZ, Village Voice, and others reporting this.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

He played many interesting roles on tv and on the big screen. His approach to characters will be missed. R.I.P. Mr. Carradine.

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

A true individual to the martial arts world......he will be missed. R.I.P. David

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

Looks like it was autoeroticism:

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

this one has fishy written all over it! jeez, what a weird saga.

you will be missed Mr. Carradine...

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

I agree...very weird.....the rope was tired around his neck and his genitals and then the rope was tied together?!??! Am I missing something here???

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

Erotic asphyxiation...definetely not my cup of tea!!!

Re: R.I.P. David Carradine
 

I took a human sexuality class this semester and apparently autoerotic asphyxiation is very popular. Saw some pretty disturbing pictures. If you pass out and the rope you tied is a bit too short then thats all it take.

There is also a way of tying the rope around your neck and your ankles at the same time and pulling your legs in certain directions, but if you get a charley-horse or cramp and pull your legs down too far that will do it too.

My teacher went very in depth with this for some reason.
