Default RIP Paul Walker

Just saw this on Facesmack that he crashed his Porsche into a tree or pole and burst into flames causing him and the passenger to be killed...

Not sure if 100% true or not yet but looks to be.

Holy shit, that's one hell of a wreck, only looks like a little tree too. Incredible.

Sad news, fast n furious isn't the best movie franchise out there but there will definitely be a hole felt there without Paul. Even worse for his family, friends and close ones.

Looking at the second pic it looks like more than 1 tree was hit and also looks to be a sign on the ground so possibly a pole involved too...

I don't know what happened (none of us do) but its probable that to have such a talent failure in such a high calibre car, his mate may have been showing off and come undone.

Don't mess around with other peoples lives in your hands on the roads. There's a place and time.

I hope he was killed on impact, and didnt have to endure a firey death, cant think of a worse way to die.

RIP Mate, you will be missed.
