David Carradine Found Dead
Posted on 05 June 2009 by LJ
David Carradine was found dead yesterday in his hotel room closet in Bangkok, Thailand. He was in Bangkok shooting a new movie and his body was found by his producer. He had a cord tied around his neck and around his genitals and his cause of death is said to be asphyxiation.
It was first reported that Carradine’s death was a suicide. However, many are speculating this was an accidental death during what might have been a sex game gone wrong because of the sexual nature of how he was found and because there weren’t any signs of a struggle. New reports are saying that this might have been murder after it came out that his hands were tied behind his back.
David Carradine is most known for being the star of the popular 1970s television show “Kung Fu”, but most in younger generations probably know him best for his role as Bill in Quentin Tarantino’s “Kill Bill” movies.

That’s too sad. He did a lot in his career to be proud of. It’s doubtful but hopefully people will remember him for those things and not the bizarre circumstances in which he died.

I agree with you, however, there is one thing in his career he should NOT be proud of. He totally stole Bruce Lee’s role in that Kung Fu, and to make it seem like David was Asian he let them paint him yellow for every episode. But yes, other than that, he was great. It’s going to be weird when stuff comes out with him after this incident, like the last episode of “Mental”. So weird.
