RIP Paul Walker......another young life gone.....Since everybody knows who Paul Walker is, everybody can freak out in unison. The fact that the soldiers that defend this country are nobodies to the media, no body even knows of their sacrifice. Paul was a good guy, and so are the soldiers that are looked over everyday.

Completely agree with you. Still very sad that he died, don't get me wrong. But good man and woman die everyday and no one cares.

Update from Autoracing1.com
Make more sense now...
The exotic sports car in which Paul Walker violently died, crashed as a result of mechanical failure -- very possibly a steering fluid leak ... this according to sources closely tied to the auto shop where the vehicle was stored and maintained.
Sources connected to Always Evolving -- the shop co-owned by Walker and the Porsche driver Roger Rodas -- tell TMZ they saw evidence of a fluid burst and subsequent fluid trail before the skid marks at the accident scene.
The AE sources point to the fact there is a noticeable absence of skid marks until just before the point of impact. They say if Roger had lost control the skid marks would show swerving, but instead the marks were in a straight line. They feel this cements the theory the driver didn't have steering control.
Also suspicious -- the fire spreading so quickly in the front of the car. The sources say flames would be expected in the rear where the engine is ... but fire in the front reinforces their theory of a fluid leak of some sort.
We're told the $500,000 Carrera GT was NOT modified and was driven rarely so they believe any failure must be a factory defect.
As one source put it ... "Roger was a world class driver" -- and while he might have been speeding (as cops have said) ... the notion he just lost control is preposterous. TMZ

IMHO complete BS, they're just trying to find a reason it was the car's fault and not driver. just because "Roger was a world class driver" doesn't mean he can always control any car, this auto has a rep for being an animal, others have lost it also. -- the notion he just lost control is a pure fact they do not want to admit
Either way, he died. Anything was possible. As Clarkson put it: "make one mistake, and it'll kill you"
