The whole premise of this thread is daft anyway, like celebrity lives are worth more than anyone elses

I don't think people in this thread think that, from what I've seen.
Famous people are famous for a reason. Some for good reasons, some for bad. In many cases, musicians or actors that people like have brought a lot of joy to people through their work.
But like, if my third cousin twice removed dies, no one will care other than the immediate family.

I mean, if they are accidentally stabbed to death then that is worthy of some remorse

Now we're talking. And to be honest... You bring up a fair point.
Something is to be said for people that are reckless. Since they're celebrities and details about their private lives are often available, the discussion (if people care) then moves on to what it was that troubled that celebrity.

If she just drove into a tree and only killed herself it would be a little tragic
But she left a giant trail of destruction which massively affected so many innocent parties, that I don't feel a shred of remorse

That's fully fair and within your right.
Honestly a lot of the celebrities in this thread I'm emotionally indifferent towards, as they haven't necessarily contributed to my life in any way.
Setting destructive celebs aside, ones that die from natural causes (cancer, etc) or are killed or whatever, even if I don't care about them, "rest in peace" is a general statement of human sympathy.

In the picture I saw of her from just after she first crashed into a garage she really looks out of it.
In the doorbell video in the article below you can see and hear her zooming along, and then off screen you can clearly hear the crash. Chilling. And so unnecessary

Fuck Anne Heche. Thought of no one but herself

Looking at her wiki, it may go beyond the drugs, suicide etc.... I never knew this, but her wiki says she's also got long time mental/insane issues. 20 years ago, she did some crazy thing walking on foot to a random persons house acting like they are best buddies. You dont get that from ecstasy pills.
Heche stated she was "insane" for the first 31 years of her life, and that this was triggered by being sexually abused by her father during her infancy and childhood.[96][97] In a series of interviews with Barbara Walters, Matt Lauer, and Larry King to promote Call Me Crazy in 2001, Heche stated on national television that she created a fantasy world called the "Fourth Dimension" to make herself feel safe, and had an alter ego who was the daughter of God and half-sister of Jesus Christ named "Celestia", who had contacts with extraterrestrial life forms.[94][98] Heche said she recovered from her mental health concerns following the incident in Cantua Creek and had put her alter ego behind her.[8]
Mental health issues
On August 19, 2000, Heche drove from Los Angeles to Cantua Creek in a Toyota SUV.[95] Heche, who was wearing a bra and shorts at the time, parked the car and walked 1+1⁄2 miles (2.4 km) before reaching a ranch house.[95] The house owner Araceli Campiz, who had seen Heche in a movie, recognized her and let her in.[95] After drinking a significant amount of water, Heche "took off her Nikes and said she needed to take a shower."[95] Campiz assumed that Heche was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs, but Heche later revealed that she had taken ecstasy.[8] After taking a shower, Heche entered the living room, asked for a pair of slippers, and suggested that they should watch a movie.[95] After half an hour, Campiz contacted the sheriff's department.[95] Heche later told the deputies that she was "God, and was going to take everyone back to heaven in a spaceship." She was then taken by ambulance to Fresno's University Medical Center and admitted to the psychiatric unit, but was released within a few hours.[95]Heche stated she was "insane" for the first 31 years of her life, and that this was triggered by being sexually abused by her father during her infancy and childhood.[96][97] In a series of interviews with Barbara Walters, Matt Lauer, and Larry King to promote Call Me Crazy in 2001, Heche stated on national television that she created a fantasy world called the "Fourth Dimension" to make herself feel safe, and had an alter ego who was the daughter of God and half-sister of Jesus Christ named "Celestia", who had contacts with extraterrestrial life forms.[94][98] Heche said she recovered from her mental health concerns following the incident in Cantua Creek and had put her alter ego behind her.[8]

Anne Heche Update: Actress Declared Dead At 53 After Tumultuous Car Crash
The LAPD has determined that Heche was under the influence of cocaine at the time of the incident.
www.hotnewhiphop.com
The thing you don't seem to understand is that we don't know why this happened.
Does this even compute with you?
Might this just be some self absored narcotic rampage? Of course.
But we don't know. We might never know. And with her history og mental issues it just muddies the issue even more.
I'm not defending her. I don't know if she's deserving of defense.
I just refuse to attack and condemn someone without knowing all the facts.
Bottom line. You have no fucking idea who and what she thought of.

The exact CNN headline is:
"Anne Heche is 'brain dead' but remains on life support for organ donation, according to family statement"

A follow up on this.Any basketball fans reading this thread would know who Bill Russell was. Died at 88 recently, but probably flying under the radar because Nichelle Nichols dying around the same time became bigger news.
Rest in peace, big man. Your record of 11 NBA championships (as a player) will likely never be broken.
Russell (Celtics No. 6) in action against the New York Knicks, during the height of their Celtics dynasty:
From CNN: "NBA to retire Bill Russell's No. 6 jersey throughout the league as tribute to the 11-time champion"
She is brain dead, and thus dead per definition. She is only kept physically alive since she's an organ donor.

The ring cam of her speeding down the street was insanity.

I'll add that even if someone did do bad things or cause harm, there's no reason not to wish *anyone* "RIP" imho. Most who harm others, in whatever way, are themselves in pain and often from abuses they themselves have suffered. The tendency to label others as "bad" people is part of the problem that perpetuates "bad" people. There's no reason not to carry positive energy towards others, no matter their thoughts, words or behavior.

Saw the video on YT. Holy fuck. That's a quiet residential street and she must had been going 120-150 km/hr???
Who knows what happened, but considering she smashed into one place first and then sped off and crash again shows she was either totally drunk or on drugs. She has a history of mental issues, but I dont think that would cause you to crash into two houses. Crashing once is enough for a coherent person to just stop and assess the damage and call the cops.. Unless she was insane and thinking she was being chased by fire demons or some shit.

RIP Wolfgang Petersen, director of "Das Boot". Dunno how popular he was abroad, but he was a big star here in Germany.

"C'est vraiment dégueulasse"
That's like having the name James T. Jerk and directing Star Wars !
The dude was a legend, one of the greatest french director. His movies with Belmondo are excessively good...
Look at this mise en scène, the dude didn't care about any rule, what a stud.

To be clear, I was just making a dumb joke about the guy's name being so close to another Trek captain's, not commenting on his legendary status

oh yeah? how about that video where she tries to get up from the stretcher?
My dad had a patient one time that poured gas in himself and lit himself on fire. He ran from his backyard to the driveway before collapsing. He lived in the hospital for 3 days. It sounded to me like the worst way to go.

Considering how crazy some people are, I wonder how many cops a typical hospital has at any given time. There's got to be at least a couple(?). I'm surprised you dont hear about wacko patients trying to slice and dice doctors and nurses.

Was she in a body bag? If So, was she pronounced dead?

nah body bags are black bags with a zipper. she was just covered up. I think they usually do this with burn victims because their wounds can get infected easily.
