So young. And I always enjoyed his work ("Reservoir Dogs" and tons of small, often funny supporting roles).

What a shame.. Not that I would wish anyone to die over someone else, but he was the nicer of the two brothers IMHO.

There's a third, Michael. He's a singer/songwriter. Had a hit in the 90's, but the name of the song escapes me. And I believe he's married to - or seriously involved with - Aimee Mann.

No Myth, ("what if I were Romeo in black jeans? what if I were Heathcliff it's no myth") and all of his records are tremendous.

I liked Chris, he could even be good in a Jackie Chan movie. I don't think I ever saw him turn in a sub-par effort.

Sorry to hear about this, he was about my age, and I've enjoyed him in every film I saw him in (starting with Footloose)

No kidding, I'm interested in hearing the cause of death.

Well, what else kills people in Hollywood under 40?

Drugs....Sad, but it happens every other month there...

I sure as hell don't want to be like them! I just want their income.

Sad to hear he died...

The Autopsy just came back and they don't know why he died.

How often does stuff like this happen? Does that mean they don't know, but it was natural, or it was something else that they don't know?

Elysium · 2006-01-26, 10:17

Shouldn't they still be waiting for the toxicology results?

psmith2.0 · 2006-01-26, 10:57

I thought the whole point of an autopsy was to find this out?

But I'm not a doctor (nor do I play one on TV), so what do I know...

He was a large man, and didn't strike me as particularly healthy-looking. Could've played a role, no doubt. Perhaps that, combined with drugs and/or some unknown pre-existing condition (a heart defect like John Ritter had)?

SKMDC · 2006-01-26, 14:57

First you do an autopsy, if no apparent reason for death is found, then you order a toxicology report, which is what happened.
A heart defect or disease would be found in an autopsy.

morningstarrising · 2006-01-26, 19:53

yeah, or at lease something that points to a caused.

So far, they are saying he died "natural". But he was 300 pounds and had a history in drugs in his past.

ast3r3x · 2006-01-27, 00:51

I'm really curious how indepth they look at different things. I mean I know there are lots of research chemicals that are used recreationally that there aren't drug tests for. How would you know if a person died by these? This creeps me out, especially since some are active at 3mg, and unless you have an accurate (better be sure!) scale, you could be in a world of trouble.
