Suicide or natural death is still being discussed. 73 years old. One report.

Oh, shit... Terrible news, I've always liked Carradine... R.I.P.
On a tour of southern homes with my mother, we went to the house that Carradine's character in the North and South mini series lived in. The owner of the house described him as a very unpleasant and demanding person.
I always found him a bit cheesy. I wonder what he was doing in Bangkok...
As a kid I thought he was the bee's knees in Kung Fu. But I think that was mostly because I was a tomboy and liked pretending I was all adept at kicking someone's ass with a few well-timed karate chops. Sucks that he was apparently a turd on a stick.

Hey, that would make a good tombstone quip " Here Lies A Turd on a Stick" : )
But, yeah, what was he doing in Bankok ?-fair question. Hope it is not some Boy George pursuits !

eh? auto-erotic asphyxiation is dumb as hell but it doesn't make him a bad person

According to some reports, he was filming a movie.
David Carradine's Rep: Death Was 'Accidental'
Posted Jun 4th 2009 3:06PM by TMZ Staff
We just spoke to a rep for David Carradine, who claims the actor's death was not a suicide.
The rep said David's death was "accidental." And there's this ... the BBC is now reporting that David's body was found hanging with a rope around his neck and "other parts of his body."
Carradine's body was found nude, hanging in a closet.
David's rep added, "We can confirm 100% that he never would have committed suicide. It was an accidental death. Everybody is in shock."

Apparently he was a big fan of the lead singer of INXS.
"Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee. Like this." -Dale Cooper

Fred Sanford: *muffled* Oh this is a big one. The biggest ever. I'm coming Elizabeth. I'm cominnnnnnnng.
*da da dee da, da da dee da dee da da*
I was heart-broken when I heard the news. I was a big Kung-Fu fan, and loved him in the Kill Bills'. Sad day indeed!

My comment was in response to MayRay's post.But at the same time he was described as shy which has more than once been misinterpreted as being assholish.
People used to call me shy. Turns out I'm just an asshole. 
Ah, I'm not trying to rag on him at all. FWIW, I liked David Carradine in whatever I watched him in.

wouldn't ya think it was accidental? no notes written, just accidental. great actor gone.
I was quite sad to hear of his death. He was just ...so cool. I can't think of any thing else to say right now.
Read this and see if there's anything else to say beyond... how embarrassing.
In a world where there are no taboos and nothing is better or worse than anything else, one could just assume that tying yourself into genital knots and hanging from a coat closet is another sexual practice. Wouldn't want to make any judgement on it. But... HOW BIZARRE!!! Not what you'd call 'easily amused' I guess. Like there's nothing better to do in your off time in Bangkok.
Can't wait to see the upcoming bio-pic.

i wonder if this was like...the 43,987th time he's done this, and just once it finally got out of control.
Apparently he was a big fan of the lead singer of INXS.

Rest in Peace,
Kung Fu was such an awesome show and David was one my hearoes growing up in Texas. It was one of my first exposures to how people treat the unique or the unusual. A great actor who will be terrible missed.
