Actor David Carradine, star of the 1970s TV series “Kung Fu” who also had a wide-ranging career in the movies, has been found dead in the Thai capital, Bangkok. A news report said he was found hanged in his hotel room and was believed to have committed suicide.

A spokesman for the U.S. Embassy, Michael Turner, confirmed the death of the 72-year-old actor. He said Carradine died either late Wednesday or early Thursday, but he could not provide further details out of consideration for his family.

The Web site of the Thai newspaper The Nation cited unidentified police sources as saying Carradine was found Thursday hanged in his luxury hotel room and is believed to have committed suicide.

Man... last celebrity I would have thought to off himself. I loved his work. definitly a loss!

Never was a big fan - starred in "Kung Fu" only because the networks were to afraid back then to have an actual Asian in a leading role. Bruce Lee was actually dinged in favor of Carradine, who had NO knowledge whatsoever of martial arts. He was a dancer!

However...he was good in "Kill Bill" ...so I'll give him that!

[Dude! Sweet!]

Auto-erotic asphixyation was the first thing that popped into my head.

Then I heard that Carradine died.

His brother is real big into the Unimog scene out here. And I agree, it's a bummer when someone decides that things aren't worth pushing forward. Hope it doesn't turn out to be any more ugly that it is tragic.

He was good in Lone Wolf McQuade with Chuch Norris..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_NrcbbHOqo

Weird with the suicide/naked angle.......aka the Michael Hutchins orgasm.......

 

[Airpacker]

Sad way to go.

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

Do I win the pool for making the call on Carradine "Hutchens-ing" himself?
