Even they are not invincible

Jackass star Ryan Dunn died last week in a car accident. Before the accident Dunn had being partying and drinking, he had two times the legal amount of alcohol in his blood when he crashed. Besides having too much to drink he was also driving too fast. He crashed into a crash barrier, but this stunt was too big for the master of stunts. He and his friend died on Monday morning. Unfortunately his crash site is now more a shopping area, because pilferers are collecting anything they can find of the Jackass star to sell on eBay. This morning a private memorial service was held for Ryan Dunn. Besides his family the cast of Jackass came to pay their respect. Besides the Jackass cast the parents of Bam Margera, Ryan’s best friend, who were really close to Ryan. The funeral will be next week, but if it is going to be a quiet one can be doubted. A controversial church from Kansas is planning to picket the funeral to spread the word that Dunn will be in hell for his sins and that no one should mock God. However the funeral should be safe since this is funeral is not public.

A Jackass star dead? How is that possible? These men are trained to be able to survive all kinds of crazy stunts. I guess they are human after all. Even though he has survived all the craziest stunts, but this was his last act. I am afraid that our idea of their heroism is gone. Most of us thought even though they did say they were in pain it was only little. That when something like that would be done to us we would be in much more pain. They were invincible, truly hardcore. I hope that this horrible event can also be seen as an example. The stuntman, who is supposed to know his limits, thought he was still capable of driving after having too much to drink. I hope more people will start to realize they should not get into a car when they had too much to drink, less accidents will happen.
