American actor David Carradine has been found dead in a Bangkok, Thailand, hotel, according to his personal manager, Chuck Binder.
David Carradine became famous in the 1970s after starring in the television series "Kung Fu."
Binder said Thursday that the death is being investigated but could provide no other details.
Carradine's death was "shocking and sad. He was full of life, always wanting to work ... a great person," Binder said, according to People magazine.
Carradine, who became famous in the 1970s when he starred as Kwai Chang Caine in the television series "Kung Fu," was 72.
Modern audiences may best know him as "Bill" in Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill" films.
His career included more than 100 feature films, two dozen television movies and theater work, according to the Internet Movie Database.
Carradine, who was married five times and divorced four, is survived by his widow, Annie Bierman, according to People magazine.
"David's career as an artist did not begin on the stage, though some of his early career was on and off Broadway. His earliest work was as a sculptor and painter," Carradine's official Web site says.
NOT THE KUNG FU MASTER!! That sucks, big time. I never got to see him in a film with Mr. Miyagi. That would've been some epic crossover shit right there.
I read that there was a rope around his nuts and his neck and may've suffered a heart attack while in the posh hotel he was in.
it was probably a "freak" accident gone wrong with some asian prostitute.
anyway still, r.i.p.

I cant see in your eyes, Cant change it, no more tries, Leave everyone with a smile
And you're sad, you feel like a little child
Somebody's left there is no rain.
If it is that above erotic thingy, what an embarrasing way to go... accidental death in a solitary sex act, I would be sad if I was the children or wife knowing that most of the world knows that.
RIP
