Sad
http://www.tmz.com/2011/06/22/co…
"West Goshen Police Chief Michael Carroll told the Daily Local News ... Dunn's B.A.C. was .196 ... nearly two-and-a-half times the legal limit in Pennsylvania, which is .08.
Carroll added, "No other substances were found in his blood other than the alcohol."
As TMZ reported, Dunn and his passenger were killed when Dunn lost control of his Porsche, crashed in a wooded area and his car exploded in flames. "

- Why is it sad? It's his own fault. He wasnt some helpless victim, he caused this himself.CygnusZero4
- he also KILLED someone. Ponder on that.severian
- I was saying sad because it was a dumb choice and people will not see his passing in the same way.mightyj

That is sad, and expected... but a little info on this, from my own experience:
Blood alcohol limits at the time of an autopsy don't accurately represent the level of drunkenness a person was at at the time of death. Alcohol, being stored in the spleen, is often heavily filtered out into the blood after serious internal trauma. This can make the test results look like a person was far more drunk than they were. And, given that both of their bodies suffered massive trauma, it's understandable in this situation that it could have been elevated because of the trauma. Also, I don't even know how they did the test considering how badly they were injured and burned.
I know of this because my sister, who died 15 years ago in a very awful car wreck, also had high levels of alcohol in her blood. But she died early in an afternoon, we think just a tragic accident that happened or that she fell asleep driving. At the most, we know she had a glass of wine the previous night - not nearly enough alcohol to be an illegal or dangerous limit, especially not 15+ hours later.
Granted, it's very obvious that alcohol probably played a factor in Dunn's crash. Just saying in this case that autopsy results often elevate blood alcohol limits after serious trauma. They never say that on the news. I actually got in an argument on a radio show on this very topic after it was being discussed, back when i was in college.
- sorry to hear :(********
- Also, I thought the BAC report was going to take a week or two to get back. Maybe the expedited it.bulletfactory

I finally read the description of their movie Minghags, and, yeah, kind of a bad thing to laugh at, but it made me laugh to think of a news anchor doing the story about his death possibly reading the plot to the movie:
"The storyline in Minghags is built around the Garbage Juicer, which was featured in the "Invention of the Future" contest in Haggard: The Movie.
"A guy who invented this thing called the garbage juicer. You can take garbage and mash it into the trash can, and it has three spouts. You can choose delicious root beer, grapefruit juice or kerosene. This businessman steals the invention from him so the guy spends the whole time trying to dick the businessman over."

Newscaster: "Dunn also starred in the movie Minghags, which was about the invention of a garbage juicer that would turn trash into beer, grapefruit, or kerosene, and the theft of the juicer by a businessman who they hassle after the theft."

Any of you know him personally? Then why are you commenting on a post about him? How he lived his life was his choice. Plenty more people died in the World on the same day/time etc. why are you not commenting on them. Don't understand why people feel attached to someone they see on TV.

Sad for those that knew him...but it's also a sad reflection on life in general that someone can become famous for no other reason than being a complete knob.

no one deserves to die. no one.
the hate is unnecessary.
there is no justifiable reason to voice hate.
no one has an excuse for being so disrespectful.- <********

- If you drive 130mph drunk, you deserve to die. I'm sorry.CygnusZero4

No one deserves to die?
- we are destined to die, no one deserves it, no human has the right to choose when another should perish********
- to say one "deserves" requires a subjective opinion, therefore irrelevant********
- so someone who gets drunk and drives at 130mph doesn't deserve to die?...TheBlueOne
- ...physics basically demands it at that point.TheBlueOne
- what about hitler? OBL?cruddlebub
- we are destined to die, no one deserves it, no human has the right to choose when another should perish

As for the debate, I have mixed feelings on the matter. I think it's really shite that an awesome dude is gone, but also think that it's done a lot of good- drink driving will very likely take a noticeable dip

Again.... if he was drunk and killed someone else... like hitting an oncoming car. He'd be a huge asshole, and people would hate him and saying "he should have died". In this case he dies and we're saying "it sucks", and if you criticize, people get angry. He made the same choices... either way, he made a stupid decision and it sucks. But look at things objectively.... don't get pissed at people for saying he's a moron because everyone would be saying that is the outcome were different, and at the same time, don't discount someone died for making a crappy decision... something we've all done.

How do you do a BAC test on an incinerated body? That's incredible that this is even possible!
