Doug Thorson said:Didn't Hemmingway also do the suicide thing? I think there is a correlation between talent and being a little off in the head!
But despite an enthusiasm for his work, the actor had openly discussed his battle with suicidal thoughts. In a 2004 interview, Carradine said: "I remember one time sitting at the window of the third or fourth floor of the Plaza Hotel for about an hour, thinking about just tipping off."

Sad when someone gives into those feelings

loomixguy said:Don't need to spend a lot of time thinking about it. I KNOW what happens in parts of Asia. Bangkok is the sex capitol of the world. I'm sure there are some here that crossed the Sh!t river bridge at least once. They weren't headed to Sunday School.
Did Bizarre Sexual Practice Kill David Carradine?
By TheImproper.com
Did a bizarre sexual practice kill actor David Carradine? As new details emerge about his death, the possibility exists that Carradine did not take his own life.
He may have actually strangled himself accidentally while trying to heighten an orgasm while masturbating.
In the BDSM community, the practice is known as “breathplay” or often “edgeplay,” because individuals push the limits of safe, sane sex. Usually a partner is involved just in case a person passes out and needs to be revived.
The great majority of known erotic asphyxial deaths are males. While the mean age of accidental death is the mid-20s, men in their 70s have also been known to die from the practice. If Carradine died in this fashion, his insurance company could not invoke a suicide clause in any policy he may hold and would have to pay full benefits.
The biggest clue that Carradine’s death was due to erotic asphyxia is the fact that he was found naked hanging from a closet pole. He was discovered with a cord around his neck and genitals, which would be part of the act. No suicide note was found.
