Ryan Dunn from jackass died this morning, looks like drunk driving and speeding, dont know all details yet. regardless, RIP funny funny guy
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Police say "Jackass" cast member Ryan Dunn has died of injuries sustained in a car crash in suburban Philadelphia.
West Goshen Township police say Dunn and a passenger in his 2007 Porsche died early Monday after the car left the roadway and burst into flames. The crash occurred near the Philadelphia suburb of West Chester.
Authorities say speed may have been a factor.
Dunn appeared on the MTV show that ran from 2000 to 2002 and its three big-screen adaptations. Most recently, he hosted "Proving Ground" on the G4 cable network.
A phone message left for Dunn's manager wasn't immediately returned.
Police say the passenger must still be identified.
this is too terrible....i am not fond of this at all....
there are rumors that this was a hoax...but i havnt found proof of it....
If he is dead then RIP, He was one of the best members of the jackass team.
If he was drunk driving.....it is a shame the jackass took someone with him....
I drove past the accident scene...a friend is doing the investigation. dead
THis is not a hoax. I lived in that area, have met him and have put a few back with him, and everyone that I have talked to, WISHED it was a hoax. Someone did Tweet on his site stating it was him, and that it was a stunt for an upcoming Jackass movie, but that is all false. The passenger has been identified. Even without alcohol, that road is very difficult at times, even doing the speed limit. The direction he was going, and the onramp he was attmepting just comes up on you and again, even doing the speed limit, I have gotten my car sideways before.
RIP brother, you were a great guy to know!
Thought he was on 322?
Thought your car looked familiar
Sad indeed. RIP Dunn. :-(
it was 322, which is straight as an arrow. he tried to negotiate the right turn onto the on ramp to Rt100 North, and failed.
wow!!! RIP Dunn!!!!
Dunn should have lived on.. Steve O or party Boy, let them burst in to flames... oh wait they do every night on eachothers ass.
Wouldn't bother me if it had been Bam
0.196 bac
"Through a scene reconstruction, the police department also determined that Dunn was driving between 132 and 140 miles per hour when he lost control of his car and ran off the road."

Westboro Baptist will be there to protest though :rolleyes:
maybe this HOT WHEELS KARMA... cause of Dunn shoving a car up his ass...
RIP
Funny heard from a friend back home.(I'm from Downingtown). He tweeted a pic of himself partying it up a few hours before. Plus I don't recall it being overly difficult to merge onto 100 from the 322 bypass... Though I wouldn't try it at those speeds.
At the end of the first season of viva la bam he wanted to throw himself a parade. He put in a request for several blocks along Gay street to be closed off for it. IIRC it was mid week in April I think. The borough said no and he got pissy claiming he's the reason that West Chester has an economy. Guess West Chester Uniiversity does nothing for the economy. Since the bars actually had seating room whenever the school is on break.
Those guys are always out doing dumb shit for attention regardless of cameras present
At least at 140mph he didn't feel a thing when he hit the first tree. Jackass move to take out another person though.
i just want to know why the one guy said he drank with him.. trying to impress us? ha
2X the legal limit? Sorry, but I only feel bad for the passenger. Driver should have know better, Jackass star or not...
I walked past the viewing last night at 5ish. TONS of news cameras, WC police had 4 cars. There was no WBC present.
Gets kinda old when you live near it and deal with it on a regular basis.
So the "stunts" they pull that have been videotaped and been on tv... This sort of shit happens all the time even when they arent being filmed? Thats pretty nuts living your life literally doing whatever you want
They may have calmed down now. Though this accident makes me think otherwise.
Bam owns a bar in West Chester now so I guess he can really lay claim to some of the local economy now :hasquint:
Driving drunk at twice the legal limit = DUMBASS
I guess the heard just thinned itself.
just one of the dumb things they did at a party i was at was them throwing glass beer bottles in the bon fire and facing their shirtless backs to it for when the bottles exploded... they laughed at us for say "oh shit" and running away from the fire... :screwy:
..........
No loss in my book. Granted, he wouldnt care if I died either.
Hope I dont offend anyone who liked him or the rest of his "crew" but honestly its shit like this that I think brings America down. You become rich and famous for doing dumb shit? How the hell can you justify it? I cant.
I feel bad for the family and the passenger and his family, the driver..................should go to hell if one exists. He killed a fellow human being. Drunk or not, doesnt matter.
This guy dies from this and the media and people get all upset (including you guys) but yet have I seen a thread related to Dick Winters.
Sarcasm will get you everywhere....hahah
No loss....sort of like if you got rid of crabs. Yeah once in a while one will tickle you and give you a giggle but at the end of the day they dont contribute to the betterment of anything what so ever.
I am sure I will get flamed over my post.
all the hate is coming because he was famous for doing dumb shit. if you could get paid for doing dumb shit im sure you would have to. not saying his death is a tragic loss, but its not a good thing either. o and the "innocent bystander" right, im sure he had no idea that he was drinking, and im sure he was telling him to slow down, could i be wrong? sure, but pretty sure the guy was at the bar drinking with him. we will never know if the guy was cheering him on or telling him to slow, prob never know, but with the friends these guys have, prob wasnt telling him to slow down.
I could give a shit less what the passenger wanted.
The driver (rich or not) is a fucking piece of shit. I could care less about his talent for playing a fool on television.
I feel no remorse for the driver.
The only this is news is because this particular driver liked to make a fool out of himself for our entertainment. One of us and no one gives a fuck. I wish that was the case with this guy.....
heres a vid/interview with Bam...hes very obviously hurt, and quite possibly drunk.

He drank himself into the hospital about 5 years ago over a fight with hiss wife. He's drunk
Here is the thing though. If he was rich because he was a stock broker and did this you would say something along the lines of "Thats just like rich fuckers......buy a car like that and then speed while drunk and kill yourself and the another person. Hope he rotts in hell. Weathly turds like this think they are so awesome."
I agree though that the other guy was not innocent. If he drove it would most likely have ended the same way.
Apparently the Pagans were in town and told West Boro if they want to picket they have to go through them. That's what my mom told me so not sure how true that is.
Also told me somebody spray painted everything black at the crash site
im not really sure what to believe since his next movie "Living Will" , he plays a guy that dies and comes back to hang out with his buddy. If hes dead, RIP and if not what a terrible prank and f**k you
