    Weird story. Hard to imagine why he felt he needed to hang himself. Must have been going through some serious depression.

    I dont understand why a man 72 yrs old has to commit suicide.

    Such a waste ...

    RIP
    Elderly people have a pretty high rate of suicide. Chronic pain, inability to do what you once could, illnesses, etc. you name it.

    Anyhow, Yahoo is reporting that he hung himself. I did not see that coming. RIP.

    BTW, I don't think that suicide is the "Easy way out." Most people are afraid of death more then anything else. I'm not glorifying suicide, but people who go through with it are willing to face the world's greatest fear.

    i agree. i remember when i read about this dude back when this actually happened. i thought to myself that this was such a glorious way to leave. to me it was more "honorable" then blowing your head off or taking pills or what not. i just stumbled across this website and it oddly makes me respect this guy even more. i hate sharing this, but......

    Im pretty much shocked right now. As some of you know I was good friends with David, had the opportunity to travel with him all over the U.S. and Europe, been to his house half a dozen or so times.ne

    Damn I can't believe he did himself in and of all places on a movie set, I know he had his demons (alchohol) but he has always prided himself for getting his work done even during his bad times on the sauce. Wow. I will probably be going to his funeral next week.

    Damn this is going to be a long couple of days.
    Sorry to hear man.

    Died naked with a rope around his neck and "other body parts" (earlier today it was "genitals")?

    Autoerotic asphyxiation takes another victim!

    Hmm. I haven't thought of this scenerio, but it's possible. I just read about the rope around his neck.

    Here is the BBC article it does not say genitals anywhere the Sun posted that bull .

    Kill Bill and Kung Fu star David Carradine has been found dead in a Bangkok hotel room on Thursday.

    Thai police told the BBC the 72-year-old was found naked by a hotel maid in a wardrobe with a cord around his neck and other parts of his body.

    The US star was in Thailand filming his latest film, Stretch, according to his personal manager Chuck Binder.

    Mr Binder said the news was "shocking", adding: "He was full of life, always wanting to work... a great person."

    A US embassy official confirmed the actor's death, but added that the cause of death had not yet been established.

    However, Thai newspaper The Nation reported that police believe the actor took his own life, and preliminary investigations found that he hanged himself.

    Carradine was part of an acting dynasty which included his father, John Carradine, and brothers Bruce, Keith and Robert.

    The star was best known for his role as Kwai Chang Caine in the 1970s TV series Kung Fu, which spawned sequels in the '80s and '90s.

    The character became one of the most iconic roles in US TV and earned Carradine both Emmy and Golden Globe nominations.





    Obituary: David Carradine
    Life in pictures
    While his film career saw him working with directors including Martin Scorsese and Ingmar Bergman, the cult actor was considered something of a B-movie legend.

    In 2003, after years in the straight-to-video market, Carradine found a new audience thanks to his role in the Quentin Tarantino film Kill Bill.

    He was most recently seen on the big screen as a Chinese mobster in Crank: High Voltage, opposite British actor Jason Statham.

    Carradine was an accomplished composer, musician, musical performer and songwriter. According to his official website, he was also a sculptor and a painter.

    He is survived by his wife, Annie Bierman, and three children including actresses Calista and Kansas

    Did you follow my link or are you just spouting copypasta?

    The BBC bowdlerized their article with the euphemistic "other parts of his body" after the original coverage, presumably out of "respect," i.e. damage control.
