The url says it all.
aufond said:I may be in denial because of my love for the man's work, but I think that the whole autoerotic-asphyxiation thing is complete internet bullshit. Either way, Carradine definitely became a tortured man in his later years, he obviously had his fair share of demons. It's really tragic. I loved so many of his films, Serpent's Egg, Bound for Glory, Death Race 2000, Americana, Boxcar Bertha, Kill Bill, but what I love most is his portrayal of the wandering Shaolin monk Kwai Chang Caine in Kung Fu. He played it so gently and beautifully, he really was an amazing actor. It's a shame he struggled so much later on... RIP David.
"I follow the Tao. No one can say to what solitude that might lead. My journey is endless till it comes full circle at my death." - Caine
NightCrawler said:Oh, thank god for fanboys. Why is it internet bullshit? It was hinted in early reports. They tried to cover it. But since it was ruled accidental, soon or later the truth would surface.
Anyway, i hope at least he came first Nevertheless, this is a serious contestant to the Darwin awards.

Oburi said:yea we all read the page you posted.
NightCrawler said:Want more "reliable" links? It's on imdb.com too.
Oburi said:No I believe it, i just meant that your little jokes about him shooting his load and darwin awards were already posted all over that page. Any other jokes you find funny that you want to re-post here?
Rhombaad said:That's too bad, I enjoyed his movies. I still remember watching Kung-Fu: The Legend Continues when I was a kid.

You're asking too much of the denizens of Internet, I'm afraid.宮本 グリフィス said:Yeah, whatever happened, let's maintain a modicum of respect for the dead, please.

aufond said:There are too many sick people who love to fuck with tragic situations like this when they involve celebrities. I don't care what some unknown maid said she saw, everything is just a rumor at this point. I'm not going to be ignorant to the possibility, but I still think it's a stupid rumor created by fucked up people trying to stir up any controversy they can for no good reason other than to amuse themselves.
Aazealh said:According to some sources Bruce Lee was the one who had the idea for the series in the first place, and yeah he was considered to star in it. I always thought it was a shame that it eventually went to Carradine.
Aazealh said:Who cares anyway? He was old, and autoerotic-asphyxiation isn't the worst fetish to have. There are worse tragedies than this.
aufond said:Like I said, it may be true, it may not be. Stop trying to convince me when none of us can be sure, I don't care how "reliable" the link may be.

Lets just forget about that nonsense and focus on his great ability as an actor, and his roles which affected more than a few of us so deeply.

Wonder no more.
