Sorry to hear this. I liked his acting.

Carradine, 72, was working on a film called “Stretch,” in Bangkok

Somebody should check to see if he has his kidneys intact. I've heard stories.

Damn, didn’t see this one coming.

These are strange times. People are dieing who have never died before.

Him and his brother were fantastic on the History Channels West Shows. They were very comfortable with the firearms.

Cole Younger, The Long Riders

RIP

Supremely manly reply! I like it!

[A.A. Cunningham]

Perhaps, but are they dying?

[Dixie Yooper]

I guess they finally caught up with him...

An incredible concept by Bruce Lee. A truly great character by David Carradine.

Bangkok?

[Oldpuppymax]

Ah those college days. Go to class (occasionally) and be absolutely silent while Kung Fu was on.

I’m guessing it was natural causes or perhaps some sort of drug OD.

The BBC reported that he had a rope around his neck and his genitals. Either a weird suicide or a freaky self-stimulation gone bad.

You’re a funny guy.

I knew it. I've been suspicious of her sleeping around on me.

I think Diane Lane is doing the same thing behind my back.

[DieHard the Hunter]

RIP David Carradine.
Another of the great ones gone.

“Time for you to leave.”

>>> These are strange times. People are dieing who have never died before.

It would be stranger yet if people started dieing who HAVE died before. (better check those Minnesota voter roles)

[The Flying Dutchman]

Autoerotic asphyxiation?

[nufsed]

He did a lot of drugs and alcohol after the series. Mostly getting offers for parts in B movies and carrer in the tank.

One incident, I don't recall what he was on, he was walking sporadically down the middle of the coast hwy in Malibu. Sans clothing IIRC.

[Paradox]

What I liked about him was his ability to poke fun at himself and the genre, while still being respectful. Old school guys like that, we are losing them quickly these days.. RIP

[piperpilot]

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking

[JRios1968]

THAILAND?????

“Yellowbook dot commmmmmmmmmm”

That was a great ad.

If he really hung himself and was in a film called “Stretch”,....the irony is interesting.
