CELEBRITY AUTOPSIES WITH DISTURBING DISCOVERIES

 

PAUL WALKER

In a cruel and heartbreakingly ironic twist of fate, the man who made the car-racing-oriented "Fast and Furious" movies an international blockbuster sensation, died in a sports car, the victim of a terrible vehicular accident. According to the Los Angeles County Coroner Walker's body was discovered in a "pugilistic stance," meaning the 40-year-old actor died with his arms up, instinctively trying to shield his head and face from impact. Authorities listed the official cause of death as "combined effects of traumatic and thermal injuries," although Walker also suffered a broken jaw, collarbone, and pelvis. The autopsy suggested that Walker died moments after the crash, as bits of soot were discovered in his trachea, inhaled with his final breath. The fire was particularly devastating — Walker's body was so badly burned that none of his organs were deemed suitable for donation.
