I was pretty bummed when I heard he got killed. He seemed like a pretty decent guy.

Pulling people out of the ditc...

even though he was the passenger in the car being driven by a former race car driver, at some point i'm thinking he'd say "hey, buddy, it is 3:00 in the afternoon and you're going more than 100 MPH on surface streets...think you want to slow it down a little?"
sorry, but this is nothing but Darwinism at work...

I was convinced that this was a hoax - considering there was a hoax about his death just days before that his reps had to come out and say wasn't true. It wasn't until the MSM outlets starting confirming that I believed it. So sad. that's just morbid!

I'm using this sad event to teach my kids that showing off is, too many times, when very bad things happen.

This guy helped more kids and young people with his various outreach programs than most groups of people will ever even have a chance to. It is nice to see a guy so giving of himself and I think that is why this effected me more than the normal Hollywood death news story. RIP buddy, God be with your family and friends.

Did you hear Vin Diesel said a few words on his behalf, and referred to Walker as "Brian"? Strange, indeed.

My sister-in-law dated him for a few months and said he was a very nice guy.
I thought it was a joke at first too and I replied to my wife that he was driving too fast too furious..... needless to say it was the wrong thing to say

The nature of the accident is why I thought it was a hoax for a while as well. Just seemed too coincidental given the F&F movies he is so famous for.
Saddened to hear, both for his family and the driver's. It will be interesting to see what they do with the 7th movie, I believe it was still filming.

Exactly my thoughts.. and there was a hoax not a few weeks before about him, which is creepy! I heard he was due in Abu Dhabi this week to film - so who knows?

I couldn't watch that movie... so sad. He was also in "She's All That". I just happened to catch that the other weekend... I had totally forgotten he was in it.

What I would like to know is why there is not as much Hollywood support (the fan support has been great) for Mr Walker as there was for the Glee guy. (other than those who worked with him) I would not call myself a "fan" of either.
Walker has been in the industry for 40 of his 40 years and there has been no news of any character issues with him. He seem to be one of the few good guys in Hollywood.
