'Jackass' star Ryan Dunn dies

[binnie]

Well, it's sad when a young guy passes. But it seems like he may have been a douche.

[sadaist]

Probably dead already anyway.

Hitting a tree is really bad news, you are much much better off colliding with another car. With a tree it goes nowhere so you get the full energy.

Yeah. I have always heard that when stopped on the side of the freeway, you should leave your car in neutral when you are sitting in it. That way if you get hit you get pushed forward easily instead of taking all of the impact. May be an old wives tale, but makes me feel a little better thinking I can do something.

As for this guy being a douche, I kinda agree. He made his living doing shit we did with our friends at age 14 when we stole a couple beers from our uncle and got buzzed from only 1/2 can. But as little sympathy I feel for this guy driving drunk & killing himself, somewhere today a mom is making funeral plans for her son. And that is always a heart breaker. So my deepest condolences to her.

If you have to stop at the side of the freeway, get out of the car. Simple as that.

It doesn't matter if it's pissing down rain. Get out of the damn car.

[Seshmeister]

As long as you can do so safely.

And don't sit for 5 minutes like a fucking idiot as I did a couple of months ago, waiting for a gap in the 80 mph traffic before realising it's a fuck of a lot safer to crawl across and get out the passenger side.

Don't feel to bad about that. My dad's a car mechanic whose been doing breakdowns and recoveries for over 25 years. You would believe some of the epic stupidity he has encountered on motorways.

[Seshmeister]

Well to be fair to me I was pretty drunk.





















Joke.

[sadaist]

I don't drive in the fast lane for that specific reason. If something happens, I'm getting off to the shoulder and not the center space. But yeah, I do get out of the car whenever I can. But sometimes the cop writing the ticket doesn't like that.

[lesfunk]

You know, I kind of expected that one from that crew would check out early. I always thought it would be SteveO or Pontius. I still feel bad because even though Ryan Dunn may have very well been a douche, I had a lot of laughs and got a lot of amusement from him acting douchey.

[ashstralia]

haha! someone at ogrish posted 'he died as he lived... with bits of car up his arse' classic.

Our drivers seat is of course on the right/correct side.

[fryingdutchman]

At least he didn't hit anyone else.

You don't expect your car to blow up in a crash these days, pretty poor effort from Porche.

This happened in my neck of the woods....

I don't blame Porsche...I blame Dunn who police say was traveling in excess of 100 mph at the time of impact.

Most things blow up when they decelerate from 100 to zero in a split second.

The second victim is 30 year old Zach Hartwell, the guy on the right in the above picture.

[ashstralia]

it was probably clarkson.

[Coyote]

I kind of expected Steve-O to go...

I think these guys were over in Norway or something there was this good looking kid long blonde hair abbs and shit, reminded me of one of my old buds from back in the day.

He is running this 4wheeler up and down a asphault street no shirt then showing 2 layers of skin missing and the embedded tar that tattoos you permenently, a real tattoo, purposefully falling off the back over the front wrecking it to create road rash and laugh about it with his friends while they film it.

Nice kid, who seems to be doing this for money kinda looked like this dude, Ryann Dunn.

I think these jackass dudes are the biggest kind of pussyies, when I think of my hard earned wrecks and scars and I once road rashed 70% of my body at 95mph on a motorcycle at 17 years old, but to purposefully do this shit film it and the people who find it interesting baffles me ?

Like 17 year ol kids with a full sleeve of tats and they have never been out of thier city..?

When you have the pain inside your memories and you see this stuff it makes you sick to your stomach .If it doesn't you are simply revelling in others agony. I can't even watch Americas Funniest Home Vids..I shake and shudder at this shit.

These guys with Jackass are singley this biggest pussys I have ever seen.

There is nothing funny about hurting yourself for attention or profit. Injury can be a "by-product" of life and the persuit of excitement..life style,, not the -REASON- to live life, on the edge. Or what some would call risky behavior. Skiing, Parasailing, Driving to work daily.

Nobody wants to watch a woman cut her arms with a razor for attention do they...I see no difference and I have taken a girl to the hospital for that several times back in the 70's.

There is a difference to me these profit seeking PUNKS!

I also want to add I am sorry to hear of the death of this dude and hope his family can deal with it and find some peace..RIP.
