Thanks, Bob. That this has been missed, or passed over, by so many news stories covering the guy's suicide is unbelievable. Can't say I've ever been a fan of his movies, but I have a bit more respect for him knowing he had the courage to end it rather than taking the long, slow road in a pain-killer haze. The right choice in my view, though I doubt I could come up with the stones to take a leap from a bridge as my way out.

---I would.

But now the word is that he didn't have brain cancer.

 

[NorthStar]

---Let's wait and find out the real truth; if possible.

* Plus there is a lot of money at stake here, and reputation as well...

But now the word is that he didn't have brain cancer.

Oops!

"Officials have not determined whether Scott had any health problems before he jumped off the San Pedro bridge but said family members have denied media reports that he was suffering from cancer."

---Who are we going to believe? ...People who don't know for sure, or the doctor? :b

* I'd say his wife. But which one?

 

[Phelonious Ponk]

Maybe he just never got over the shame of making Days of Thunder....oh, sorry...bad taste.

---The autopsy should reveal? ...If he had an incurable brain cancer or not.

Me, I am 100% convinced that Tony had an issue (or more) in his mind.
