Wow that sucks.

RIP Mr. Walker. Died while enjoying life to its fullest. Not a bad way to go.

Some furious re-scripting on F&F 7 must already be in the works.

Didn't the Stig have a hard time controlling that car?

Aw man, that sucks.

I just watched "Running Scared" again the other day. (Not a fan of F&F series, but he turned in some really good performances in other movies.)

Sad news.

Yeah the first movie was a laughing stock but they quickly corrected most of the problems and started making some decent flicks.

Well... mostly... until they start doing things like blowing up cars with a stable at room temperature oxidizer and an ignition source with no fuel...

He died while riding in a Porsche Carrera GT, a rare supercar built back in 2005 & 2006, that was for sale at the car lot he co-owned. The driver was his business partner.

I've driven a Carrera GT and they're hardcore, not for a novice. They understeer like a pig unless someone changes their factory setup, so if you're used to a 911 and hop into a GT you need time to adjust to the difference. Apparently the guy driving didn't do that.

RIP Paul.

That's sad. He seemed like a nice guy.

I liked him in Pleasantville

Paul will be missed for sure, guess there will be some changes in the up coming Fast and Furious movie.

BTW It appears there was no racing involved and he was riding in his friends Porsche.

Wow, this is really sad. I loved his movies too. The guy was so young. What a shame.

 

[FelixDeCat]

Driving dangerously. What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Kadarin]

RIP Paul, and other guy whose name the media ignores because he's not famous.

 

[SheHateMe]

I hate most of his movies...but this sucks. What a shitty way to go

I loved the guy. But, man sometimes you just gotta know when to quit.

 

[thraashman]

As ironic deaths go, I would have preferred a certain celebrity and a wrecking ball....

Ehh, I'd take death by car crash over a slow boring death in bed. :\
