David Carradine, Kung Fu star and pop culture icon, was found dead in his hotel room June 4, 2009 hanged with a rope around his neck and no sign of a suicide note. Immediate speculation was that David Carradine was a victim of suicide, but those who knew him do not think that is possible and it is now believed that his death was accidental. Autopsy results will be released in the next few days.
So how did David Carradine die? How did the Kill Bill bad guy end up hanging dead and naked in his Bangkok hotel room mere days after arriving in Thailand to begin filming a new movie, Stretch?
The BBC has reported that when David Carradine's was found he was naked hanging in a closet, with rope around his neck and "other parts of his body." Representatives for Carradine have said that they do not think it was a suicide but that his death was simply "an accident."
No further information has been released about what sort of accident would leave a man naked, hanging in a closet, with rope around his neck and other unidentified body parts, but there is speculation that his death was a bizarre sex accident while David Carradine was engaging in auto-erotic asphyxia, also known in the BDSM community as "edgeplay" or "breathplay."
