fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck the hits just keep a coming.

One role of his that was big in my youth was Tag: The Assassination Game (also with a pre-terminator Linda Hamilton) because we would constantly try to play that game at school and the fear that it would get physical (inspired by this movie, no doubt) always made the teachers shut it down

Alex Zanardi, the Italian auto racing champion-turned-Paralympic gold medalist whose career was marked by two life-altering accidents, has died. He was 59.

Zanardi's family announced his death on Saturday, saying that he passed away on Friday night.

"Alex died peacefully, surrounded by the affection of those closest to him," the family said in a statement without providing a cause of death.

"Italy loses a great champion and an extraordinary man, capable of turning every challenge of life into a lesson in courage, strength, and dignity," Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni said on X.
"Alex Zanardi knew how to bounce back every time, facing even the toughest challenges with determination, clarity, and a strength of spirit that was truly exceptional," Meloni added. "He gave all of us much more than a victory: he gave hope, pride, and the strength to never give up. ... Thank you for everything, Alex."

Absolute legend for doing what he did after that terrible accident.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Poor guy, he had two huge accidents, first costing him his legs and second probably costing him his health. He deserves to be remembered for wanting to keep living and succeeding as a para-athlete.

An amazing actor and stuntman. Man this one really hit me. He was just so fun to watch when he was in your show's cast. They don't make action stars like him anymore. Shit they don't make action stars at all anymore do they?

This is sad news. He was so perfect in that film. RIP.

Bloodsport had that perfect blend of goofy charm and violence only the 80's could conjure.

I really wish they had included the scene where he's conflicted about firing the Death Star on Endor, because of all the Imperial troops still on the planet. It makes his character much more complex. (And totally forgot that he told Vader "No, you can't." Awesome.)
