OMG that scene is absolutely horrific. Thank God nobody else was killed as they're saying speed was a factor.

So sad. I love him and his other hot friend in those movies. Chat Icon

In any event, the drama is already starting on FB.

My sister's BF posted a status about "Who cares? What did this guy do for society"...........and it's become major news on my feed now because everyone's ripping him a new one.

Chat Icon


I'm not even going to respond and be sucked in.



Those movies aren't my thing so I never saw them and don't really know who he was but he did a lot of humanitarian work and had his own charity. It's very sad.

Re: Paul Walker dead at age 40

So incredibly sad. He seemed like a nice person. He was there doing a charity event for the Philippians disaster. May he RIP. May the driver RIP as well. He was apparently a famous race car driver.

So sad over this. When I first heard last night, I was Googling for like an hour trying to see if it was a hoax or not, which I thought it was at first...then I saw his rep confirm it Chat Icon

This broke my heart even more...
Jim Torp, who was also at the event, identified the second victim as Roger Rodas, a pro racer and father of two who owned Always Evolving Performance Motors. Torp described how Rodas’ 8-year-old son tried to save his dad. “I ran over afterwards, I was trying to find Roger’s son,” Torp said. “I found out his son had jumped the fence and gone over, he was trying to get his dad out. Paul Walker’s best friend was trying to get Paul out of the car while it was still on fire ... he was trying to save his friend ... there was nothing he could do.”

I've loved him, ever since Varsity Blues...God he was gorgeous. And seemed like a great person, doing a lot of charity work and helping others. I feel so sorry for his daughter and family/friends Chat Icon

Paul Walker dead at age 40

This is so sad.

But really whats wrong with people who post things like who cares dont know what he did for society... why does it matter??? A human life is lost. Period. A son. A brother maybe. A husband. A friend. A father most of all is dead. What does it matter if he simply was a person enjoying his life who never hurt anyone or was the president of a charity. A lfe is over
People are such tough guys behind a keyboard. People suck they really do.

I'm so sad for both families, especially their children.

Paul Walker was so gorgeous. I hate that people are siting behind their screens saying terrible things about him. He doesn't deserve it.

Re: Paul Walker dead at age 40

I just logged onto FB again and a few more people have made negative comments "It's not like he was in the military or a police officer or firefighter".

I seriously don't get it.

He too had a family and is someone's kid.

Celeb or not people suck behind a keyboard.

People are idiots. Celebrity or not, it's always sad and heartbreaking when anyone dies but the difference is, when you're known the world over, it's more talked about. I don't know why anyone gets bent about it. It's just the difference between being in the public eye and not.

It's a sad and terrible thing that happened and it was a life cut short. Him being "just an actor" doesn't make it any less tragic.

I read that is was a hoax on FRIDAY!

IF that is true how eerie!



This gave me the chills. I was just googling it. According to some sources, there was a death hoax on Friday, and then on Sat. morning, his reps confirmed that he was alive and well. Then he died a few hours later in the crash.

Other sites are saying that there was NO death hoax on Friday - but since you saw it yourself sultana, that seems inaccurate!

Either way, awful and so sadChat Icon

Re: Paul Walker dead at age 40

I am so upset by this I can't stop thinking about it all day
You never read anything bad about him, never any pap photos, it seems everyone had genuinely nice things to say about him, he was at his own charity's event, I feel so bad for his daughter and family
RIP Paul Walker

Re: Paul Walker dead at age 40

I just read that the car wouldn't start or wasn't working properly and their mechanic from their shop was trying to fix it. So the driver, who is an owner in the shop with him took matters into his own hands and was taking it back to the shop. Then Paul said to him that he hadn't ridden in it yet and went along for the ride and that the accident happened just 500 yards from the shop. So horrific.

It has to do with the placement of the gas tank on the car - it's under the driver's and front passenger's seat.

I read that their friends who were trying to get them out said they were either unconscious or had already passed away when they had arrived and tried to get them out.

Thank God for that.
