I guess most of you heard, that Ryan Dunn died in a car accident two days ago. It made me really sad hearing this, as I am a lover of Jackass and other TV series like Jackass (Nitro Circus eg). I will never forget how he shove a toy car up his ass and went to a jewish doctor. Well, I think it was him, it's been a long time since I watched the movie.
But don't you guys find it kinda ironic that someone who earned his money (and he didn't earn little money) by performing crazy stunts and doing other dangerous ###### died in a car accident? It made me think a bit...especially the fact that he posted pictures of him and his friends drinking alcohol on twitter before.

I can only advise: Don't drink AND drive.

What I thought is that it can happen to anyone. You never know when you are going to die. And yeah, you should never drink and drive. You might be lucky and die, you might be unlucky and kill someone.

You never know when you are going to die, but if you're drunk AND driving 130mph down a road, you'd basically asking for a death sentence.

R.I.P.

Yeah I also forgot to write a RIP

R.I.P, as a huge fan of Jackass and its spin-offs I see this as a huge loss to the world.

A very emotional interview with Bam Margera. The last ca. 60 seconds made me really angry.

That's very disrespectful.

However, with all due respect, I believe his death was his own doing, and some just don't feel any pity for those who bring death upon themselves. I simply shook my head at the news, I didn't know who he was, but when I saw he died from drink driving, I don't know, I just felt as if I shouldn't feel as sad about his death, although it still is sad.

Some people just don't care, and that's why they are doing what they are doing.

While I didn't really know him, I have respect for the dead, however, I personally believe it was his own doing and I don't actually feel THAT upset about his death, although a death is a death, and I will give respect where its due.

RIP.

Keep in mind that it is not confirmed that he was driving under the influence of alcohol.

"According to the Chester County coroner's office, Dunn's blood alcohol level was .196, more than twice the .08 legal limit in Pennsylvania. The report also says there were no "drugs of abuse" detected in Dunn's system."

Yeah, I can see how it seems weird how someone like that can die from a car accident not a stunt, but if you cast your mind back to Steve Irwin who was killed by a sting ray, he was an expert on crocodile and other australian land animals, he was not however and expert in marine ecology or how he should approach Rays. This is the reason why he died. Remember that people like Ryan Dunn are/were professionals and everything they do has an element of safety to it. It's a shame that he died but hopefully this'll send out a message that drink driving should be avoided at all costs.
