RIP Ryan Dunn (Jackass)

[funguy2121]

You are a horrible, horrible person. How can you say such a thing?

Didn't you just answer your own question?

Maybe read my previous posts and understand what I was actually saying?

 

[ragestreet]

That's what happens when you drink and drive. Dude got what was coming to him. I do feel bad for the other guy in the car though.

Edit: I love this thread title. Rest In Peace (freaking dumbass).

 

[DarkRyter]

Aw man, that is a really poorly worded title.

 

[Malikaw]

So this guy survives being slingshotted across a waterfall and all the other crazy Jackass shit, but dies in a car crash?

Shit, I half expect this to be a joke and for him to walk out of his coffin grinning flipping the bird at the Reaper.

Just maybe you're right?

I don't care what you posted earlier. Saying someone should die is horrible and there is no excuse for it.

R.I.P Ryan Dunn.

Aw man, that is a really poorly worded title.

Thanks for pointing that out, hadn't noticed. And I don't even feel bad for laughing at it, seeing how I didn't personally know the person who died. I don't feel even the slightest bit of sadness about that, which is only natural, but it's quite interesting to see people being sad. It's not like he was your hero of in any way inspired your minds or touched your hearts.

Sad for his folks that he died, but they'll get over it as it has been a natural part of human lives since, oh I don't know, the beginning of our existence. I hope I don't die from poor judgement that came from idiocy, and if I do, feel free to jest at my loss.

Also, you can be pretty sure he taunted death all his life seeking thrills that could kill a man. You should only be surprised that it didn't come sooner.

It should be noted that this is in no way intended as an insult of the deceased.

Bawww, although driving that fast (while possibly being drunk) is never a good idea actually...
But I do feel sad, he was a boss!

 

[gphjr14]

If you drink and drive in a fast car with little to no crash protection you're gonna have a bad time.

 

[wolas3214]

The man who shoved a car up his butt died in a car. Irony at its finest.

 

[standokan]

I'll hit myself in the balls in respect of him.

(1)I don't care what you posted earlier. (2)Saying someone should die is horrible and there is no excuse for it.

(1) + (2) = ?? You don't get to put words in my mouth after saying you don't care what I said or what I meant while criticizing what I said and what I meant. Your umbrage is unwarranted. This will be the fourth or fifth time I've said it (over a dozen if you count the first post I made that has been quoted by numerous people, including you).

I have not said that anyone should die. Please read a passage carefully before tearing into its author.

He deserved it. All drink drivers do imo, its one think to risk your life, its another to risk other peoples.

I also find this quite stupid, people are mourning the los of a guy who got famous for doing stupid, unproductive shit. Anyone going to post a thread for every dead doctor, nurse, policeman, soldier, etc ?

It was a lot more then "Stupid, unproductive shit". No one did what those guys did at the time, they were just lovable rebels who made us cringe and laugh (for those who watch it)

No one deserves to die like that, its a shame you feel like that.

You say "lovable rebels" I say idiots with too much time on thier hands. Please tell me how they werent stupid anunproductive ?

Yes people do, if you drive while drunk and risk other peoples lives, you deserve to die imo.

bursting in to flames is not an acceptable death, in America people of death row get a better death. Yes it was stupid and dangerous, but i don't think i can judge someone like that, let alone enough to wish that on anybody.

They earned a lot of money or doing that "stupid and unproductive stuff" for the entertainment of others, obviously others like it enough to make them that famous

I dont care how people on deathrow die, I dont care if its considered better, he drank, he drove aft drinking, he crashed, he deserved it or risking other peoples lives. Want my sympathy after a car accident, dont drink and drive.

So what ? Footballers get millions to play a chidrens game, its not productive. Just becuase they made alot of money dosentmake them productive, it just means lots of people have more money than sense. Its like saying people on big brother re productive becuase they win money I assume.

I fully agree with you. Regardless of how "nice" a guy he may have been, he was a fool that quite frankly asked for something like this to happen. I had an Uncle that smoked and drank his life away to a heart attack in his early-60s. I wasn't sad, I was ashamed of him. He let all of his amazing natural talent go to waste instead of getting help for it. He was weak-willed and denied aid from the family... I never shed a single tear for him, I was more pissed that he didn't use his gifts to make a productive living.

This difference with Dunn, regardless that I didn't know him personally, is that he didn't utilize any talents for success. He simply had the physical fortitude to withstand doing idiotic shit to himself in front of a camera and some dickpump at MTV decided it was worth paying him for it. It's like the Court Jester making more money than the King, or for a more modern analogy, Pro-Athletes earning more to PLAY A GAME than the President makes to RUN THE COUNTRY.

So Dunn bites the big one by supposedly being the intoxicated driver in the accident and being an accessory to the deaths of his passenger(s). People want to call it a tragedy, I call it weeding out the weak.

...

As a fan of shows like Jackass and Viva La Bam (shut up, I like that kind of show every once in a while), this hits me kinda hard. My condolences to the family.

 

[Irriduccibilli]

He died as he lived, drunk driving. Rest in peace Mr. Dunn

 

[Pariah87]

I suppose I feel similar to the way I felt when I found out that bin Ladin had been killed. I'm not a fan of celebrating anyone's death, but a Jackass? He was being a jackass, drunk driving, which I'm sure was not incidental in his death.

Too bad it wasn't Steve-O, though.

I'm not sure what you guys expect me to do about this post. He's entitled to his opinion.

 

[emeraldrafael]

damn. I'm gonna sound horrible, but i hoped he would have died doing a stunt. At least then there would be something cool to read.

Oh well. its sad he's dead, but I dont feel the connection or remorse of my above statement, but probably cause jackass never appealed to me. I can do that any day with about five of my friends, and probably something more... difficult.

Oh, hey, he died here. well, there's another pilgrimage we'll have to the state.

 

[ramox]

Well, you're definitely a Jackass fan! Please read the bolded text again. The emotion I was describing was ambivalence, not happiness. The Steve-O joke was definitely in poor taste, so I'm sure he'd appreciate it. What I meant to say is that I'm surprised he's still alive.

No, Ryan didn't deserve to die, and the other person who died in the accident who may well not have been drinking didn't deserve to die either. Honestly though, if someone from Jersey Shore died I don't think there'd be memorial threads on the Escapist, and to me the only difference is the type of bodily fluids the "stars" like to bathe in. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe this person made a difference in the lives of others when he wasn't helping his friend destroy his parents' house and covering himself in human excrement. I'm not being cheeky; if there's information you think I should be aware of, please include it.

Otherwise, where's the memorial for the other person who died? The person who in all likelihood did more productive things in his life than staple his balls to his leg? Where is HIS love?

You just put into words all my thoughts about this incident. Any incident involving celebreties, really. Why is it that the death/alcoholism/cancer/marriage/divorce/whathaveyou of celebrities is so much more important and noteworthy than the same thing happening to my neighbour?

He made people laugh, and he seemed like a decent guy. If you don't like what he did with his life, that's cool, but don't come here and ***** us out for mourning someone who entertained us.
Also, again, it is possible to have a few beers and not get drunk. Seriously, if you didn't like the guy, don't fucking post here!
