Killed in a car crash taking a buddy for a spin. Hope God gives you a 10 second car in heaven.

Some people are saying its fake, not sure. Would be really sad if its true

Confirmed?

edit:
Looks confirmed, his official FB page:

Very sad and what pisses me off more is that he lost his life due to the irresponsible and reckless driving of another person (apparently Walker was a passenger in a friend's car during the crash).

SDf10 · 11-30-2013, 10:26 PM

This freaking sucks! Poor guy, to die like this in such a stupid and preventable way. RIP Paul Walker, my condolences go out to his family.

I'm really curious to find out officially who wS the driver. I think we would all assume he wasn't driving

Greenkirby21 · 11-30-2013, 10:31 PM

RIP. We need to make trees flexible. (edit: and people to drive more safely)

Confirmed from several sources including his own rep.

dmboone25 · 11-30-2013, 10:54 PM

He was a great part of the Fast & Furious franchise - also had a thing for BMW. Very sad to hear...RIP Mr. Walker

TunedM2C · 11-30-2013, 11:05 PM

RIP. Not much left of the Carrera GT.

larryv · 11-30-2013, 11:26 PM

RIP. So young.

ufgtrs2007 · 11-30-2013, 11:47 PM

Very Sad. Everyone, please respect your high performance machines. May he RIP!

Quasimodem · 12-01-2013, 12:29 AM

RIP. Funny how a $100 tree can beat a $100,000 car (though I admit I dont know what model of Porsche it was).

RIP Paul Walker

Rip brother...from one car enthusiast to another. My prayers and condolences to your family.

positiveions · 12-01-2013, 01:32 AM

Sad. The guy is as old as I am.

Presario · 12-01-2013, 01:44 AM

So sad. He was there attending an event for his charity to benefit the victims in the Philippines. Rip Paul Walker. He was just too young.

Tiny Chainsaw · 12-01-2013, 03:28 AM

He has a 15 year old daughter and he was attending a charity event for the Phillipines.

EDIT:
Images from the wreck, it's crazy to see how small the tree was and yet the how much damage was caused...

AshbyJ · 12-01-2013, 04:28 AM

Paul was a huge philanthropist and started his own charity organization in 2010 for natural disaster victims world wide. Also one of a few celebrities that received almost no negative press from doing stupid shit. He was a huge car enthusiast, and an amazing individual. RIP Paul, you will be greatly missed in showbiz, auto world and as a father and friend...

EdM5 · 12-01-2013, 04:56 AM

RIP

Robert · 12-01-2013, 05:02 AM

RIP Paul, be sorely missed in future F&F installments.

The GT is not an easy car to drive at the limit. This is what Clarkson said about it, skip to 5 minute mark.
