That's a shame, I liked him in that kung-fu series. Must have had problems or something.

I've read a bit on the story too. He was down there filming a movie, no note was mentioned in the article.

No note, huh? However, a rope was mentioned in the report I heard on the radio.

Very sad: poor guy.

Heard he either committed suicide or he was doing some weird sex game.

Whatever the reason is, it's a huge loss. I literally grew up watching the newer edition of Kung Fu and loved him in Kill Bill. He'll be missed.

I read that he was hung by a drapery cord. Could have been accidental I suppose. :(

I saw it too... it is a shame. It bothered me when I read it, because it doesn't smell right. Why would someone do that when their career was taking off again? Especially someone who spent his life educating himself in the martial arts and gave up drinking. Those are things that enhance your life. Why would you then want to throw it away? Even at 72?...

Sounds almost like Michael Hutchence of INXS if it was an accident and not suicide...

I grew up watching the original "kung Fu" series, never missed a show.

Grasshopper & Bruce Lee got me hooked on Kung Fu!
