Of course, I didn't know Paul Walker personally. However, from what little I've seen and read about him, he seemed to be respected as a good human being, good father, and a man that didn't let his success go to his head. Perhaps this planet could use more like him.
Just keep in mind that none of us are invincible, and anything can happen at any moment. While our cars are fast and fun, they like us, have limitations. Not to mention those uncontrollable, unforseeable circumstances that can happen when investigating those limitations.

People die from Auto Crash Daily.
Just a fact! And not just from speeding.
As a person that almost died in one can tell you (myself).
He was famous but there are allot, allot of people that will never have there names even mentioned in a news paper.
Yes, since he was a car guy it sucks but it happens and I think those people also should get a
in there names.

It's a tragedy and sad, no matter what anyone may think about his movies.
I have as a medic, and firemen seen many accidents like this, and no matter what it's not a way to go. Given a choice I'd go out a 3 story window before burning. A choice I once made, and was hurt. Fire is not a good way. I only pray the impact rendered them unconscious.
We all should wish their families the best in this tragedy, and respect their life's work.

This Sunday I'm heading up to the crash site to pay my respects. He was a father, entertainer, and charity giver. He was a good positive role model kids and a car guy. Im going to display his charity on the back window of my vette. I'm joining over 4500 people that will be attending the event.
