That's sad news. I wonder if he was on his own in the room? Perhaps he was a bit too old for the crouching tiger hidden snake routine!

RIP Mr Carradine I grew up on you.

they were calling him the Kill Bill guy on BBC, obviously they can't remember Kung Fu

Great actor. I'm too young to have remembered him from Kung Fu but I loved him in Kill Bill. RIP.

Very sad I loved his acting in the Kung Foo series we probably will never know the true facts or what was on his mind if he di d commit suicide.

 

R.I.P. My friend you gave a lot to a great many people.

I just saw an article on CNN that says that actor David Carradine (of Kung Fu and KIll Bill) was found dead in a hotel in Bangkok, Thailand. His publicist stated that the death was being investigated. Anyone know anything about this?

RIP Grasshopper

Nothing cept that he looks like a hardcore monger in that picture.....

 

If he went out the way I think he did, then thats THE WAY TO GO!

 

In any case, a sad story; I thought he was a great actor.

I was a bit sad to read that David Carradine was found dead in Bangkok. They say he hung himself...I wonder if it's true.

They say he used the cord from the curtains in his hotel room to hang himself.

 

I know that if I was going to commit suicide I wouldn't rely on a cord from hotel room curtains to do the job!

 

I wonder if it was foul play made to look like a suicide - like so many people think Western jumpers are in Thailand??

CNN just posted that he was found hanged by a nylon rope (from the curtains) in his hotel room closet. They're not sure if it was suicide or not at this point. He was in Bangkok to film a new movie. What a crummy way to go. Poor Grasshopper.

[T'Northerner]

He will truly be missed!

 

Such a shame as he hung himself. I hope it was an accident and in truth his last days were fun ones with many a Thai girl at hand.
