I loved Kung Fu when i was a kid...he must have been quite old though?

72...

But at that age you don't think about hanging yourself...

Well obviously he did!

unless someone did it for him.

no details released yet.

Aww, Glasshopper!

Glasshoppas never die, they just hop off!

Hate to be the one to say it but on my other forum they are saying he was half naked (doesn't state which half), which is leading people to speculate it could have been autoerotic asphyxiation.

Orange in mouth?

Well, even if it was kudos to him for going to all that trouble at 72 to get his kicks.

These days, I can hardly be bothered to shut the car door.

A friend of my parents was found in such circumstances, about 40 years ago.

From Sky news

Police said there were no signs of a struggle or other suspicious circumstances and are treating the death as suicide.

That's so sad, I'm sorry to hear that

Just read on teletext that he had a rope around his 'area' too, don't know how true that is.

I've heard he had the rope tied round something else as well
Shades of Michael Hutchence...?

He was found in a wardrobe with a rope around his neck and genitals. Some people like odd things.

very odd indeed

W.T.absolute F is that about???

There are worse ways to go I suppose.

Awww shame

I liked him i did.

Mind you Bangkok is a very weird place.

Someone else could have put him in the wardrobe.

Thai police wouldnt admit it.

Perhaps he was trying to get to Narnia.

I don't know the press have to give us all these details, why can they not just say he committed suicide and leave it at that, if not out of respect for him then out of respect for his family.

How do you know he committed suicide? It might have been an accident during a particular hobby...

In the report I just read it said the Thai police believed he took his own life, and even if it was an accident through his hobby, still don't think his family would want it plastered all over the news.

Please can you post this breaking news on the News Forum where it ought to be

Tough - become famous and it goes with the territory, I'm afraid.

It doesn't sound like suicide to me. I don't think I EVER heard of a single suicide where the person decided to tie rope around their 'bits' too!

It's all a bit odd really, and I'm sorry to hear of his demise.

Whatever the circumstances, it is very sad news for his friends and loved ones.

May he rest in peace.

Not entirely sure why you feel any particular thread 'ought' to be in any particular forum but we chat about anything and everything on here.

If every single thread was pigeonholed into a specialist forum then this community would soon fall away

If you want this posted on the News Forum then you can start a thread there yourself

Anyway.....

Rest in Peace David Carradine and I hope his family get whatever answers they need to deal with this

Awwww

R.I.P

I know, it just makes me sad for his family, his children, grandchildren etc.
