'Jackass' star Ryan Dunn and passenger Zachary Hartwell, were killed Monday in Pennsylvania after Dunn's Porsche went off the road, hit a guardrail and careened into the woods where it caught on fire.According to the L.A. Times, the official coroner's report confirms that blunt force trauma and thermal trauma were the official causes of death in the accident.
After an accident reconstruction, Police Chief Michael Carroll told RadarOnline.com that the Porsche 911 was going "about 130 mph" when the accident happened in a reported 55-mph zone.
"I've never seen a car destroyed in an automobile accident the way this car was even before it caught on fire," Carroll said. "The automobile actually came apart. It was unbelievable and I've been on a lot of fatal accident scenes. This is by far the worse I've ever seen."
Although there has been heavy speculation as to whether the group's night of partying had a direct influence on the fatal crash, the tragedy has been labeled an 'auto accident' rather than a 'DUI,' pending the results of a toxicology report, which will be available in four to six weeks.

You Sound like a Boring person get a life
what Are you a tree hugger....
maybe the car and burned bodies of these twoshould be on display at every high school to drive the point hoem about getting behind the wheel of a car drunk. Yeah I understand the final report is not out yet but it does not take a sooth sayer to figure out that a night out at the bar + driving like an idiot at 130mph = drunk. I am sorry that the close friends and family have to suffer because of the thoughtlessness and irresponsibility of these two people but i am glad an innocent was not a victim.

See, your problem is you think you are God, how lovely of you to judge. I hope you die for saying such stupidity
Wait a sec - you call someone out for "judging", then tell them that you hope they die for doing so? Nice cognative dissonance there, ashley.
It's truly sad but it looks like the show's title said it all - J*A*C*K*A*S*S. Too bad he took the part seriously.

Another case that enforces the reason that the sale of liquor should be against the law, just another addict that got what he paid for.

Wow, Roger Hall... Do you really think making alcohol illegal would STOP things like this? Does the DEA mean anything to you? If making drugs illegal worked, we wouldn't have the DEA. Just because people abuse things doesn't mean to disallow the rest of the population. But with rules like that, you could probably join the Taliban, eh?
I think it's funny how many are calling it a trajedy because he was an actor. If he was a random person from a not so known town who decided to drink and drive (or just drive at that speed if alcohol wasn't involved) we would not be so sympathetic. This country has forgotten about accountability for actions. This is why we are soo willing to forgive drunk drivers, law breakers, pediophiles etc. as long as they are famous, who cares.
He indangered lives and lost his own, hate to be frank, seems fitting.

This flaming a-hole was brain dead DECADES before his irresponsible and self induced death! Sorry pal and all his supporters. You offered as much to a logical society as our pathetic example of a president presently hanging out in the White House.
