crazy shit
that’s why you should never drink and drive
jackass
Have some respect Silver, Though i don’t condone drinking and driving. In fact I detest people that do it, “He is dead” so may he rest in peace. I guess luck ran out for him, but he did have a good run for what he chose as a career.
If he was driving while intoxicated, he was a jackass. If not, rest in peace.
Joshua, he didn’t just kill himself, he killed someone else also.
It’s still sad to know he is dead. Although what he did was a jackass act that resulted in not only his death, but the death of another, it is still a tragedy to the people who knew him.
So yea, have maybe just an ounce of respect, if not for Ryan then for his family.
If he did drink and drive which they did not say(it just says he posted the photo on twitter, but I post pics that are days old whenever i think of them or get bored)…, then shame on him and whether he is dead and someone thinks this is a respect issue..he therefore took his own life and someone elses! That’s plain wrong period. The comments would be about the actions which lead to his death. On a side note the movies were hilarious and at least there will always be a legacy of his stupidity for all to laugh and enjoy.
I will be watching Jackass 3.5 and drinking a case of beer tonight to celebrate a life lost. Ryan Dunn was fricking awesome! Cheers up in heaven!
How strange, it is noted that Bam M. had a premonition, I watched Jackass 3D last nite and thought the same thing, but I was not for sure which one it was going to be. To wierd.
