Paul Walker taken in a car crash!
If you don't know who he is, the star of Fast & Furious!
Such a shame at only 40 years old !

Sad news, as much of his on screen stuff was at time a bit cheesy it looks like the charity work he did was heartfelt and helped a lot of young people.

Yeah man. It's weird how when you grow up watching somebody in films how much it gets you when they pass. I felt like this when Ryan Dunn was killed!
Just shows how fragile life is and to make sure you make the most of it!

I think the driver was going to fast for the road conditions.
