first time seeing the car.. terrible, apparently he was on his way to a charity event he was holding.

Theres a clip out there of the aftermath, pretty brutal. Kinda ironic how he died considering his role in Fast & Furious.

dont know if anyone's into "conspiracy" here but also heard "Bryan" in an episode of family guy died in a car accident aired a week before this
