I still don't get how he died

I read the reports and it still doesn't add up.

I'm not trying to be an asshole, I just don't understand how a vehicle could sneak up on him like that with no time for him to react.

It either rolled fast and silent

or he was murdered.

Have you ever seen how fast a vehicle without its handbrake on can move downhill?

Especially a Jeep Cherokee, dude had a horrible death

Minor jews die at the age of 27 because that's the perfect age for organ transplant.

Would've been fine Peter Parker

Maybe he was talking on the phone/listening to music? Not that hard to imagine.

>"Damn! That song is great. Alannah Myles was really crushing itARRRG I'M BEING CRUSHED!!!!!"

It was some Final Destination type of scenario.

The auto tragic on that particular model is particularly confusing.

Poots killed him.

>tfw 27 year old jew neet in good shape
oh god

If the engine was off or the emergency brake failed it could easily pin him against something or under him.
Maybe he should have been more aware but I can see being relaxed and caught off guard by something like that happening

this is something I used to have trouble understanding too. like how so many indians are killed by trains after falling from the roof. it's the power of physics.

It's honestly a tragedy, it would have been so out of the blue, he would have had plans and shit. Utter shock for his loved ones.

THAT SAID

What happened was, he ran himself over, and that's extremely funny to me

This is why you should never buy FCA shitters.

How do you get roles in Star Trek reboots and still drive around a Jeep Grand Cherokee? I mean at least upgrade to a Toyota or some other suv, you don't have to spend a lot

>neet
>in good shape

Something didn't add up

Fully loaded Grand Cherokee's are nice. Maybe the dude liked Jeeps.

Plenty of free time to exercise.

Touché

>having a slanted driveway

This is the one celeb death that I can't still get over with. Maybe is the fact that I liked everything he was on, or maybe being the same age. Don't know, it still saddens me

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

He wasn't even run over. The car rolled into him and pinned him up against the pillar of his security fence. That is one shitty death.

>still drunk from night before (or 'hair of the dog')
>got in car to leave for a shoot
>remembered mail
>got out to check... without engaging handbrake
>car rolled back and squashed him against wall

>one celeb death that I can't still get over with

It seems more likely that he got pinned there when it was still nighttime. I think he was found early the next morning.

best death desu

Stay away from Los Angeles and Miami at all costs jewbro

>one celeb death that I can't still get over

kek

>An upcoming fan documentary film aims to bring the female part of the Star Wars fandom to the forefront. The passion project titled Looking for Leia – referring to Carrie Fisher’s iconic character Princess turned General Leia Organa will highlight women who have a deep passion for the space opera and ask them how a science-fiction film franchise has impacted their lives.

>The force behind the documentary is self-confessed fan and filmmaker Annalise Ophelian. She recently spoke to CBR and provided some details on how this passion project came to be. As it turns out, Ophelian got the idea from her own interactions with other female fans during 2015 Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California. At one point, she says that she even wanted Fisher to partake in the project but given her untimely passing, Ophelian now relates the actress as some kind of Force ghost guiding them to finish the project:

>“Originally, I conceived of it as a sort of road trip in which I would go around and talk to female Star Wars fans, and I was convinced I would culminate with finding some way of getting Carrie Fisher to sit down and talk with me on camera. I was already starting to think, “How do I get Fisher’s people to let her be a part of this? How much of the film will I have to show her to get her to come on board?” Then when she passed last December, I was just gutted. I don’t know that I’ve ever grieved so much for a person that I didn’t know, like so many people. I already had my tickets to Celebration Orlando and I said, “That’s it. I can’t make the film now,” and my partner’s like, “Absolutely you have to make the film.” So it shifted with my imagination of what the narrative was going to be, but also been kind of wonderful, because I do feel like Carrie Fisher’s been looming like a Force ghost over the whole project in this really beautiful way.”

Sounds cool

>having a house with an uphill driveway

There was a recall on the jeep he was driving,

>The shifter in 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokees operates like a joystick, returning to the same position no matter what gear the vehicle is in. Some drivers have become confused and exited the vehicle while it is still in gear, leading it to roll away

variety.com/2016/film/news/jeep-recall-anton-yelchin-1201828785/

If you've ever been to LA, a lot of areas are hilly as fuck. If his driveway had a bit of an incline I imagine he got out to check his mail or whatever, thought he'd put his jeep in park, and hadn't noticed as the thing rolled up and pinned him against his iron gate. It supposedly took a little while for him to die too.

I have a house with a narrow downhill 90 degree bend driveway.

It sucks.

would have to check time of death records... but if it crushed his (e.g.) spleen, he's died pretty quickly

i doubt it's a 'Ledger' or 'Seymore-Hoffman' (drug related) conspiracy

They're pretty common in the Los Angeles area.

Rik Mayall's death was rough, I was hoping to see at least one more new sitcom from him.

almost died like that once
>be delivering newspapers
>have to deliver some on foot
>forget to put on parking break when getting out of truck
>truck rolls down hill right towards me
>see truck reflection in the parked car in front of me
>barely have enough time to dodge my own truck as it smashed into the car in front

if it wasn't for the reflection I would of for sure been run over

Stay safe

>fan documentary film

Not all fan documentaries are bad. The one that was included on the Jaws blu-Ray was great.

I wonder if he was aware for a while that he'd die, or if he was crushed and lost conscious right away.

Sad death, he was talented and underused.

...

He relaxed around cars

Probably died pretty quick. That's a lot of fucking weight pinning him against a brick pillar.

>“blunt traumatic asphyxia,” Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter of the Los Angeles County coroner’s office confirms
>Yelchin most likely died within one or two minutes of the impact, Chief Coroner Winter confirms.

give me your liver jewboi

Of course it adds up. Anton just failed operate his car properly. Instead of engaging parking brake he left it on neutral and then walked behind his car on slope to get the mail, then he was crushed between car and mailbox/gate. If a warning beeper beeps when you open the door, you probably should think for a bit.

>buying American Motor City shitbox
>surprised when it kills you in some way
I bet even North Korea makes better cars nowadays.

Those stilt houses in LA seem like a nightmare to maintain

90 degree? That's like an "L".

Not doubting the accuracy of the report but I'll bet no coroner would really want to be the one to say "oh yeah he suffered for like an hour or more."

It'd serve no purpose except to further traumatize friends and loved ones.

>or if he was crushed and lost conscious right away.
of like in Signs, and he had visions of the impending alien invasion while in his death throes....!

Yep. People die in stupid ways like that every day, it's just that he happened to be famous.

>how a vehicle could sneak up on him like that

the controversy wasn't HOW he died -- but the story around HIS JEALOUS GAY LOVER, who killed him

I can't remember the name but a small time actor was driving eratically in Hollywood hills. He crashed his car. When he was examined he was found to have had stab wounds in his back.

The guy was probably trying to get to a hospital. It's still unsolved.

this surely has to be the spookiest one... if not the most tragic waste of a talent that left a void that's yet to be filled

But if it was in gear, with the clutch up, it wouldn't roll? I know people who leave their car in gear to save wear on the handbrake (I'm told it's a tractor thing). Or is it different for automatics that americans use?

you don't need sneak when you speed is you ally

automatics won't roll -- they move by default (see: impeller / centrifugal force) and only in the direction they're gear (F / R)

in other words, he would have had to have been pretty damn soused to have left and automatic (?) in gear and just wander away from it

different for automatics, he definitely should have used the parking brake if there was any kind of incline. it's just best practice.

Even if you have the car in park, if there's an incline you should use the parking brake. There's only like the tiniest of little shit parts stopping your car from rolling free unless you use the parking brake. This shit happens so often in LA (not people killed, just cars rolling b/c no parking brake).

Gotcha, cheers lads.

Died because chrystler just cant fucking make a vehicle that isnt complete dogshit. The jeep model he drive had a completely autistic shifter knob setup. It was a fucking dial on the front console. Like a music dial. Apparently not only does the design suck ass, but there were a handful of other incidents of jeep owners having issues with the vehicle randomly slipping into neutral for no reason - with the fault being with the electronics behind the dial. Chrystler has gone as far as to offer free replacements of the unit with an actual shifter stick and doing away with their fucking retarded dial idea all together.

Anyways.
>dude has jeep running in his driveway, top of the hill
>walks down to get his mail
>jeep slips into neutral, E brake is not engaged
>jeep rolls and pins dude against metal gate infront of his driveway
>spends next couple of minutes writhing in agony helplessly as he is crushed and his lungs fill with fluid and he drowns in his own blood

And that is why you dont fucking buy shit made by chrystler

This one still gets to me.

Holy fuck that's retarded. Glad I got a Subaru.

That is the most retarded thing I've seen in my life.

And here is the gate that the dude got pinned against with his 2 ton shitbarge. Note he was hit with enough force for his body to bend the wrought iron bars. His body got smashed like a bug.

It wasnt quick either. Its probably one of the most painful, agonizing ways to go. "1 to 2 minutes" is a long fucking time to die. He got pinned, his pelvis and ribs smashed and his organs ruptured, and he lingered on that way for minutes in the most unimaginable pain. He probably tried to scream for help, but since his lungs were empty from being crushed, he could only grunt. They began to fill with fluid as he wiggled and shook and helplessly tried to escape from the inevidable. This was only the first 10 seconds. He likely was conscious for another minute. And you can bet your ass that each of those seconds felt like a god damn eternity.

Aaaand that is why you always use your ebrake on a hill.

>>jeep slips into neutral, E brake is not engaged
>E brake is not engaged

what kind of idiot doesn't do this out of habit? a dead one

Who the hell thought that was a good idea for a shifter?

>ay yo this is my jam turn the music up
>accidently turns shifter dial
>jeep goes into park and shits its tranny onto the pavement before rolling into a schoolbus full of orphans

Ran over himself because he had too many baked potatoes.

I went to middle school with him. He was an asshole, I'm glad he's dead.

Why lie?

>You now remember that an eerie Sup Forums post stated that Anton Yelchin was dead, literally hours before TMZ or any other MSM sources picked up on it

Was I the only one that remembered that damn thread?

>archive.4plebs.org/tv/thread/71000180/#q71000180

Chrystler thought it was a good idea. All that bullshit so they could put in some extra cupholders or something not required. For those who arent into cars, chrystler (who also manufacture jeep, dodge, ram, and fiat brands) is notorious for being utterly shit in absolutely everything they do since the 90s. Literally the most jewbag, cut corners for profit auto company on the planet. They shouldnt even exist anymore. While ford and GM were able to pay back their bailouts in the 2009 financial crisis in a year or two, it took chrystler like over half a decade to repay their free taxpayer funded loan.

They are literally a failed company propped up by daddy governement. And they dont give a fuck either, which is why they pump out vehicles that break down and self destruct within a few years of leaving the lot. They just dont care. They know people are retarded and niggers will buy their chrystler 300s because the advertisement had rap music and it looks like a knockoff bentley, and soccermoms will buy their new jeeps for their """safety""" ratings, while the retard blue collar plebs will buy their dodge trucks because they are the cheapest truck to own on the market (for a good fucking reason - they break).

"Free market" literally resulted in this bullshit company being able to keep making failed products and ultimately got this poor dude killed by his own car.

What is that?

>american 'engineering'

basically unless you are trying to blow up a brown wedding party or display pornography modern americans can't engineer shit.

>buying a truck from anyone that isn't Ford

Just why?

I'm not lying. I went to SOCES with him around 2000-2002. He was an egotistical jackass.

Who that?

Why aren't you in Hollywood yet? You were born on third base

No dude, free market is good, regulation is bad and Germans are only selling cars in the US because they're cheating. Get your facts straight.

do you guys realize that his wealth literally killed him?

his heavy car with a ton of potentially faulty electronics and a fancy gate

I'm sure there's probably a lot of jackasses at that rich kid school.

I mean he was what 13 or 14 and a working actor? I'm sure he was probably a little arrogant and standoffish at that age as many people would be. People are not often their best selves at that age.

Didn't have much wealth if he had to settle for a fucking Chrysler

you should go back.

That's what he gets for escaping Soviet Russia.

Something like this

What bothers me is how long he went before anyone found him.
I've always pictured hollywood as some bustling, 24/7 freakshow with crowds of people everywhere all day and night.
Also, what about his friends? Family? Neighbors?
Literally no one heard the crash, or heard him screaming?
Thats probably the biggest load of horse shit i've heard in a very long time.

>no kkb
shit taste m9

>blowing up brown wedding party

To be fair that wasnt entirely our fault. We were fed intentionally false info. In afghanistan its all tribal shit, like some Hatfield vs McCoy rivalry except instead of it being a few years its been going on for centuries. Some rival tribe heard about the wedding and convinced our intel guys that it was a high level taliban meeting. We scoped it out and saw men armed with AKs firing into the sky - armed men fit the narrative so we bombed them with a few 2000lb bombs and killed like 100 people.

Except those 100 people were all civilians including women and children and they were firing into the air because this is customary in their shithole culture. The most fucked up part? They did not give A SINGLE FUCK about us blowing their families to bits. Not a single shred of wanting revenge against american troops for killing them. Instead, they wanted to know which rival tribe gave us the info so they could go get revenge on them. We were just a pawn in their little tribal war. That shit is going to go on forever - and that is why afghanistan cant be conquered. The inhabitants just cant assimilate into modern civilization.

Also america can engineer shit perfectly fine, its just that our auto industry has absolutely zero incetive to be creative or invest money into their own product because they know people will keep buying their bullshit and if they dont the government will bail them out again. "Too big to fail" just gives them a free pass to cut every corner and produce the cheapest shit possible because there is zero consequences for doing so.

$$$ or rather the lack there of

Wasnt there someone who ran themself over because they ate too many baked potatoes?

I still don't understand this hill business. How steep was this hill? How long was this hill? Why would you want the entrance to your house to be at the bottom of a hill?

russian hackers don't kill people like this, only american intelligence agencies do. See: Michael Hastings.

That's why the car says russian hackers did it.

>how a vehicle could sneak up on him like that

I did the match. not too heavy
