That is very sad. Always seemed like such a nice guy. Looks like a Carrera GT and a huge accident. RIP

Very sad and a big loss, R.I.P
Think about it, think about it again and then do it.

Sad day. Got a lot of kids interested in cars, and helped breed the next generation of petrol heads.
RIP Paul.

A very high energy impact on an urban road -------------------no sympathy here I am just glad no innocent bystander was involved.
On Friday night I was making my way home from an Eddi Reeder concert at the Glasgow Concert Hall, I just reached the bottom of Castle Street
when very suddenly the world was full of blue flashing lights heading down towards the Saltmarket and the riverside, when i got home I learned
what had happened at the Clutha.

The possible stupidity of the driver (who wasn't Paul Walker...) doesn't detract from the sad loss of Paul's life.

He was a willing passenger , the guy was "a friend" so he must have known how the guy drove before he got in the car and
therefore was equally guilty.
Just because they were filthy rich makes it no different from a pair of kids going wild in stolen car, worse because celebrity brings responsibility
which is a concept that seems to be increasingly forgotten particular in the USA where being rich makes you completely immune from the law.

Ive never heard of him, and never watched the childish films
shame two people died but judging by the mess of the Porsche, it would appear that were traveling at speed, and the fire spread very quickly, and
killed them, hopefully with no one else around
More importantly the heli crash killing 3 in the heli, who were doing their job, probably chasing some scrote who needs to be put away, and at least 5
more in the bar, now that is sad news, and will take a while for the community to get on with life
Steve
Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at

I'm suprised at a few of these comments. I'm not sure how the collective have gleaned enough information to make such comments without
making assumptions but I guess that's what many folks do.
Sympathies to all those involved in the Glasgow incident.
Similar thoughts to Paul and his mates families.

Given there was a bad fire... Is there a chance that he may have been the driver n they just said he wasn't cos he is a famous person?
The road was a 50kmh road by what I read... Looks bad for 30 mph mmmmmmmmm
Thanks

Rip, influenced a lot of young people to get into the car game
Also I find it strange that the people who like him love speed and thrills be the first to act all mr perfect when it comes to an accident, we will
have all had close calls its fair to say you win some you loose some
The driver and Paul lost this one

Being a passenger does not make him guilty.
What and utter wanker you are.
If the pilot of the chopper turns out to be at fault does that mean the passengers were at fault too? would you say they were guilty too?
