Did somebody Kill Bill?
http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/06/04/obit.david.carradine/index.html?eref=rss_topstories
From Jack Hannah
CNN
(CNN) -- American actor David Carradine has been found dead in a Bangkok, Thailand, hotel, according to his personal manager, Chuck Binder.
David Carradine became famous in the 1970s after starring in the television series "Kung Fu."
Binder said Thursday that the death is being investigated but could provide no other details.
Carradine's death was "shocking and sad. He was full of life, always wanting to work ... a great person," Binder said, according to People magazine.
Carradine, who became famous in the 1970s when he starred as Kwai Chang Caine in the television series "Kung Fu," was 72.
Modern audiences may best know him as "Bill" in Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill" films.
His career included more than 100 feature films, two dozen television movies and theater work, according to the Internet Movie Database.
Carradine, who was married five times and divorced four, is survived by his widow, Annie Bierman, according to People magazine.
He was the son of actor John Carradine.
"David's career as an artist did not begin on the stage, though some of his early career was on and off Broadway. His earliest work was as a sculptor and painter," Carradine's official Web site says.

There is something fishy about his death. He must have had financial troubles or something.

Read report just a bit ago that he was found hanging naked in a closet where he was staying. I definitly think foul play. He was there to film "Stretch" and also had lined up a few more projects so i really cant see it but who knows.

Sounds like another case of auto-erotic asphyxiation gone bad.

That's how I read it too. He was found naked in a closet with a cord tied around his neck and "other" body parts. I can't imagine him committing suicide but auto-erotic asphyxiation seem right up his alley.
Regarless, RIP

From an article this morning:
The death of American actor David Carradine may have been accidental suffocation, Thai police said Friday.
The 72-year-old actor's body was discovered Thursday in his luxury suite at Bangkok's Swissotel Nai Lert Park Hotel. Police initially said they suspected suicide, though Carradine's associates had questioned that theory.
Police Lt. Gen. Worapong Chewprecha told reporters that Carradine was found with a rope "tied around his penis and another rope around his neck."
"The two ropes were tied together," he said. "It is unclear whether he committed suicide or not or he died of suffocation or heart failure due to an orgasm."
Man, what a humiliating way to go. Rumors were always around that this is how the INXS (that crappy 80s band) guy went out, but I think those were debunked.
