this topic is about celebrities that die and related tragedies, feel free to go off any any tangents also as long as they stem from the conversation.
for instance i just learned today that mike tysons (the documentary "tyson" was awsome) 4 year old daughter was found dead, by his 7 year old son. she was apparently hanging by the power cord to one of his excercise machines.
well this forum is for news on who died, not for posting random people who died a long time ago
update on carridine: apparently it was not a suicide, but a sexual act gone wrong, bondage i guess
Erotic asphyxiation to be exact. It's not confirmed but that's probably from the attempt to shield the family and his reputation. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with this kind of thing but most people think it's odd.
I can't believe I didn't hear about this btw. I really liked David Carradine.
carridine update: so now im hearing reports that the way he was bound, that there had to be someone else involved, and fungusman hag dug up some reports that apparently, he was "investigating secret societies."
I feel bad for the guy. If he was into kinky sex and it killed him then let it be. No one deserves to have thier personal life dragged through the media.

I like Carradine too. He was a class act and I will truly miss seeing his performances. He was great in Kung Fu and Kill Bill, but also in the 100+ other projects he was in.
@ Dojah, Jonathon Brandis was a kid who was in Seaquest and a bunch of T.V. movies. I remember his death almost destroyed my GF (ex-GF now) as she had a huge crush on him.
Yeah I didn't post about Farrah because it wasn't a surprise to people who've heard about how bad she was doing. Cancer is a horrible thing.
I made a topic for MJ because this was a shock. It was obvious that was unhealthy(just look at a recent photo). I'm interested to see what kind of info we hear about MJ now that he's gone.
Don't believe everything you hear. I'm not saying he didn't, but I was never convinced he did.
He was a very different individual for sure, but sometimes people like that are a very easy target for the tabloid media that has taken over our continent.
