Damn what a loss. I used to watch the newer 'Kung Fu' when I was a kid...but he really kicked arse as Bill in the Kill Bill movies.

Awwww this is definitely sad, I have seen the re-runs of the Kung Fu program and other things that he was in, and he was a great actor, he will be missed for sure.

Does this mean I can no longer use the term "Grahs Hoppah"?

Re: 'Kung Fu' and 'Kill Bill' actor David Carradine found ...

Well I was thinking about the way he died...and I think that it was accidental. I think that he was doing what some people do when they :ahem: "pleasure" themselves. They asphyxiate themselves right before climax to...er maximize the experience. So maybe....I'm just saying.....that's what could've happened.

And from the ashes she rises.....

Well my theory was along those lines, but apparently his hands were tied behind his back, unless he can do that himself Confused maybe there was someone else involved. But he has been known (claimed by his ex wife) to indulge in somewhat "deviant" sexual behaviour.

He was what? 72? Do 72 year old's still do "that"? Sick And if he can get his creaky bones to the point of doing so, would a 72 yr old be trying to practically hang himself while doing it? Seems like a younger persons thing ...
