Just got home and saw it on CNN.com... So sad to see him go, and in the way that the BBC reported.

I've been a Martial Arts practitioner and Teacher for about 19 years. I can attribute seeing Carradine's "Circle Of Iron" when i was 7 as one of my biggest influences.

Another cool movie he did with his brothers was called "The Long Riders"...a a western about Frank and Jesse James (Stacy keach and his brother), and the Carradines played the Youngers....I think Randy and Dennis Quaid were in it too...
Maybe it wasn't a suicide. It sounds similar to how Michael Hutchence, the INXS lead singer, died.
Some years ago, I played a gig at a comic book convention in Columbus Ohio. I went outside for some air, and out there was David Carradine smoking. Then he blew out the most impressive snot rocket! Ninja style! True story.
That crossed my mind too. Either way, it's really sad to hear of his passing.
He was the greatest at being a bad actor. I was still waiting for a new series of Kung Fu to come out.
"Thai police told the BBC a hotel maid found the 72-year-old naked in a wardrobe with a cord around his neck and other parts of his body."

Whether you saw him as Kwai Chang Cain or Bill, he will be missed.
yeah. That's what I heard. Not a bad way to go, but not exactly the best way to be found afterwards.
