David Carradine's manager disputed reports that the actor committed suicide as information emerged that he may have died accidentally during autoerotic asphyxiation. Carradine was found hanging naked in his Bangkok hotel room with cords around his neck and genitals, reports the Telegraph. There was no evidence of assault or that anyone else had been in the room. Autoerotic asphyxiation is a technique that involves deliberately cutting oxygen to the brain temporarily to enhance sexual arousal.
From Wiki:
On a late night in 1978, Crane allegedly called Carpenter to tell him that their friendship was over. The following day, Crane was discovered bludgeoned to death with a weapon that was never found (but was believed to be a camera tripod) at the Winfield Place Apartments in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Bob Crane was "beaten" to death, by someone else.
When I was a kid I overheard my aunt, who was a nurse, telling of a patient who died in her hospital. The patient had been found in his bathroom with 3 feet of broomstick up his bum. Apparently he slipped while standing on the toilet.
I naively asked my uncle how such a thing could happen. He tersely said, “Weirdo sex cat kick”. That’s Beatnik slang for those of you too young to know.
autoerotic asphyxiation... found hanging naked in... Bangkok... with cords around his neck and genitals
EVERY YEAR ssomeone dies from that! You’d think the word would spread on the danger. How much better could it be, than a warm, pretty woman, anyway?
After THAT embarrasing incident, he was fit to be tied, I bet!
Remember when all it took to get excited was a date for Friday night and 10 bucks in your pocket?.....
Or that he accidentally killed himself (not suicide) which I believe is likely considering the sex connection.
Probably her...
I heard he fell off his YELLOW BOOK.
The BEST cult movie EVER....
Good way to go for someone who used to beat the crap out of Barbara Hershey.
Another guy I know who did the same job told me about being sent to cover a story about a guy stomped to death in a horse stall. It was all very matter-of-fact until my friend asked the cop doing the briefing if the victim's pants were up. The cop looked exasperated, but after a long pause he said, "No."
There also was a MOST EXCELLENT video game of the same name. Essentially you ran over as many pedestrians as possible. Lots o fun.
Garry Glitter?
LOL
I read somewhere that Dodd and Kennedy are/were fans of ‘poppers’. And I don’t even know what ‘those’ are!
What a jerk!
