RIP Paul Walker

[unionrdr]

My son just showed me a facebook page from what I saw on nbcnews.com earlier. Paul Walker was riding as a passenger in his buddies Poerche GT when they hit a poll & tree. both were killed in the fiery crash. Facebook page showed his face was split in two. JFK faired better. OMG that was nasty to happen to a 40 year old. He has a daughter that's like 10 years old. That's gotta be a terrible blow. Wreck reminded me of the flattend hulk of the Porche 550 spider that James Dean died in. My condolences to his family for such a terrible tragety.

I went to Jr. High with him, tragic loss.

Terrible tragedy for his family and friends. Life is a risk sometimes, even without pushing the limits.

FYI his daughter is 15. One report I read said that he was planning on taking a hiatus to spend more time with her when this movie role came up. It's hard to pass up a movie when it's a series. I can't even imagine what she is going through right now.

 

[Hello]

It is very sad.
The FB pic of his face is fake. The bodies were unidentifiable at the scene.

That's what I figured as well.

Yeah,they said the coroner was waiting for dental records to officially ID them. but what a waiste. Oh sure,they were only doing 40-45mph...but the driver was attenpting to drift on a hairpin curve where the cops said it's popular to do so. Starting to sound like buddy & fellow time attack driver showin off!?
