Walker described himself as "outdoorsman, ocean addict, adrenaline junkie ... and I do some acting on the side."
It is a terrible loss. Some might not have him as a favourite actor but his outside work & charity is notable. The real world JDM community did have a spotlight with the F&F franchise. Good or bad rep but it help to bring a better understanding of cars community.
Paul is a big fan of cars, his interest develop further when he got involved in the Fast & Furious movie. In real life, he was a better driver than any of the fellow actors & learned to ropes to be quite a good driver.
died too soon, he still owe us a 10sec car.
devastating lost

15MPH and thats how the car looks like. I wonder how fast they were going at that time. Some said it was his friend who drove the car. Its sad tho. I wonder how they going to wrap up fast 7 without him. RIP paul.

Bill is not the driver.
See the link page below. Paul (in black on the right) is talking to the driver (Roger Rodas<unconfirmed atm) of the red Porsche Carrera GT that crashed . about a second or so of him in the link. He (paul) probably couldn't resist fast cars.
don't think so. but maybe if he (paul) was driving instead (paul is known to be a cool head driver, adrenaline seeker but cool head). Maybe the driver of the carrera gt wanted to impress paul (bad mistake/too ego?), which could have lead to the accident.
[edit]
Too much to speculate, the driver of the Carreras GT is supposedly a good driver himself (unconfirmed). Roger Rodas.

I don't know man... most people watch FF for the over the top action and hardly because of the individual actors. I think it still have enough star power to carry on. Though it might be a bit rough at first. Once this all sinks in it will probably be all back to normal.
