That was pretty tragic. However it wasnt the only thing that went wrong in the making of twilight zone. It was the worse accident on set but by far not the only one. At one point the actors were actually starting to believe the movie was cursed and shouldnt be made.
Christopher Reeve is an inspiration for those of us who have suffered paralysis. I was injured from a Tennessee F4 tornado 🌪 in 2006. I laid on top of my 3yr & 6yr old boys, saving their lives and near fatality injuring me.
You're a true hero in a world where that word is so over used, as to become meaningless. It should be used more carefully. As a fellow wheelie, though more mobile I can walk with aids a bit. Folks like you are an inspiration to me to never ever give up. I wish you the best and I am happy you and your children survived such a terrible event. I was missed by a strong F3 back in 1976 in GA

Of all of these tragic deaths, Christopher Reeves is the one that still brings a tear. I grew up knowing Chris as the man of steel, Superman. Upon hearing of his accident and the resulting paralysis I learned then that Superman is mortal. I admit, I wept while viewing the Super Bowl ad featuring Reeves walking again. Powerful advertisement. *Life is short, live it to the fullest of your abilites...
Did you know she was also a pedo victim don't worry her perpetrator is in prison where he belongs, but the fact she is dead, and he isn't is just sad, but to be fair I think he was sentenced before her death. EDIT: his name was R Kelly, but he was arrested in 2019 18 years after her death how unfortunate.
Joaquin Phoenixs phone call to the police about his brother's overdose is truly horrible, to say the least. I heard it on a documentary about Rivers life and that documentary truly showed how talented he was. I know he's at peace now but can't help but to think how big he would be if he was still here. 😔
I loved Christopher Reeves in "Rear Window". Courageous of him to accept the role. I generally am unimpressed with most movie remakes, but the irony of this well played character stands out . A truly super performance!
Many on this list were truly tragic, many were tragic, Heath Was a true acting legend, like Chadwick had many more glorious years in life left. River was another truly tragic as his star was burning bright. /i have had young people that I grew up with die young for various reasons. Death is never fair and some of us actually play with the idea. I am old enough to have a lot of the people that brought me joy pass on. Life is never fair, life loses it glamour as we age. I have two grandsons born in the samr year that are now both three, I see the glimmer of joy of life in their eyes. The happiness does return, but the joy we lost along the way will always be with us..
I hope your Grandchildren never loss that shine in their eyes during their childhood. There is plenty of time to learn about death when they are older. But you are right, you never know the when or where of death.
I too can relate to losing friends, cousins and girlfriends too young. Too many to count. From illness to accidents to even murders like domestic violence. I myself came close 7 to 8 times in my once younger self. From my death bed from my illness asthmaticus, to a couple of close calls like one, falling 30 feet off a construction site.

It's a very very hard thing to come off on screen as a super cool/Bad Ass/Very Intelligent " Super Hero/Man!!!!!! And too be as Humble as possible!!!!!!!! Is amazing!! Because most people that would have half his charisma and Good looks!!!!!? And everything else he had going for him!!!!? Would have a very hard time not letting it go to their heads!!!!!!!!!?" But not Chad!!!!! Very humble and modest!!! Always!!! He's sadly missed!!! God bless you all today Shalom
Phoenix didnt mix his last shot. He was 6 weeks clean. His dealer "friend" set him with a speedball at the strength he used to use. Once the drugs hit his system he wouldnt survive. The fact he made it outside the club was a somewhat miracle.
2:34 The actors were actually decapitated when the helicopter came down it crashed because Landis wanted a brighter flash for the action scene and it wound up blinding the pilot Who then lost control
2:44. I can only imagine the high end lawyers Landis had to defend him. No wonder he got off. I can't help but suspect that he was directing the helicopters to come in closer and closer which led to the deaths. Hovering helicopters don't crash unless the blades hit something.
Actually Brandon died in the room of the gun manager. The gun was placed aside for inspection and fixing. One of the actors began playing with the gun that needed fixing. The manager had stepped out for just a second. Brandon walked in from taking pictures for a slide of the movie. The kid playing with everyone else grabbed another gun which happen to be the faulty gun and got shot in the chest. This same situation just happened with Alec Baldwin and a female director. This shouldn't of happened with anyone else being this happend to Brandon.
This was such a harrowing video and as I'm old enough to remember most of these people and thier stories, I can't help but smile at the memories and I'm happy they were around to present such great moments in my growing up.
I wonder if he actually was gay. At the time he died, most people still thought aids was a homosexual disease and I wonder if him being gay is just a vicious rumor that someone started.
Opening night for "The Crow" was the first time I ever heard end-credit applause, the "subdued" volume was balanced by its' sustained length all the way until the house lights came up. As a comic book nerd, I knew the poetic Irony watching a dead actor brought back to life onscreen playing a character brought back to life for revenge. I had a Fear of the adaptation belittling the books' emotional drama from the moment production of the film was confirmed, although I enjoyed a reason to share my books with my friends instead of talking about them. Brandon Lee's death made me Despair that the film would be impossible to complete, although I suddenly had interest in my books from my female friends. Now my only Fear is writing too much perspective on a comment thread, but sometimes a nerd's gotta do what a nerd's gotta do.
You saw The Crow opening night??? Damn yer old! I mean, shit.. .....so old your SSN has only 1 dash in it. .....so old the American Flag at yer elementary school was missing a couple of stars. .....so old you had an uncle that was a pirate! Lemme ask you this though. Did your first GI Joe have Swivel Arm Battle Grip? I had to mail in 4 proof of purchases UPC's to get my Boba Fett action figure. That's how old I am!
You mentioned Wilt Chamberlain as Bombaata in Conan the Destroyer but missed that Andre the Giant was in it as well. Andre was uncredited but played Dagoth (the god of dreams) who Arnold also fought in the movie.
Wilt Chamberlain was a great basketball player. One of the top three of all time. But to call him an action star is stretching it a little bit. I just finished reading his biography and in the last year of his life his health literally fell off the cliff.
It was due to a dental issue he never fixed I believe. He got elbowed in a game very hard during the 60s and apparently it became something that nagged him for the rest of his career. Turns out the hit had cracked his tooth or something like that, but by the time he had gotten to the dentist later in his life to try and fix it, it was too late and it had already created an infection which travelled to his heart, which explains the rapid weight loss. He also did have an underlying heart condition because he had been so tall from the age of 13.

Anybody remember the tv series Roar? Heath Ledger as an ancient celtic warrior trying to protect his homeland from invaders (I think Romans). The scenery was stunning and Heath was basically beautiful.
The Game of Death was Bruce Lee's final film. Not Enter the Dragon. Granted, it wasn't completely done. They finished it without him, even put footage of his real funeral in the movie. Then released it.
Enter the Dragon was his final film. He stopped shooting Game of Death when Warner Bros. offered to produce Enter the Dragon. He only shot 4 fight scenes for GOD, got the call from Warner, and began ETD. So literally, the last film he completed was actually Enter the Dragon. That hodge-podge GOD that was released in 1978, by Robert Clouse (5 years after Bruce's death btw), while well intended, is an insult to Bruce's original script and concept. Go watch "Bruce Lee: A Warrior's Journey". Had Bruce completed GOD as intended, no doubt it would have been the best martial arts movie ever made.
Great point. When I was working in hospice there were some deaths that were certainly a relief to the patient and often times to the family also. So many family members have terrible guilt when they feel relief after seeing their loved ones pass after suffering from devastating illness'.
@@kathleenmuchka2559 yes I actually agree after watching both my brother and dad slowly getting eaten up by bonecancer. It is kinda a relief when it's over. More tragic to watch them alive than watching them die, in a weird way. Very weird feeling if one hasn't been in that situation. But... I still think that there's going to be hard to find a death that isn't tragic.
@@kathleenmuchka2559 I can understand that. Relief and guilt. I watched a lot of people I loved or grown to love pass away but suffered immensely while here on earth battling their illnesses. Saddest feelings that you wish to not ever have. And the guilt can drive someone "mad"..
You forgot Jan-Michal Vincent. Think he's easily one of the worst fates. Alkoholism caused his downfall. In the end he was poor, afflictef with alcohol dementia and even an amputated leg, before finally dying.
Vic Morrow has a famous daughter Jennifer Jason Leigh Fast Times At Richmond High, Backdraft, Single White Female. Aaliyah was a great singer loved her voice and acting in Queen Of The Damned, me and my daughters mum named her after the singers name only spelt differently.
Chadwick still hits hard ,what a talent what a human being ,I'd of happily seen a few more black panthers and I really can't stand marvel movies at best of times
so i seen an interview with the actor (FUN BOY) who shot the gun in it and apparently according to them, Brandon LEE got hit in the STOMACH and it severed the aorta across his abdomen and he blead out on the way to the hospital because the paramedics couldn't do surgery

@@CosmicGoku529 in all fairness there were a lot of people that were not technically action stars who were listed here.
A driven entertainer
Christopher Reeve was definitely Superman...despite his illness he will always be the Superman I know.
Rip to all these actors 🙏
I never knew Eric Fleming died like that. I used to watch rawhide religiously I had such a crush on him
These actors will never be forgotten!!⚘
I pray for it too. My auntie was paraplegic. We lost her in February 2021. God bless you.
I don't get how you can sue a car manufacturer for speeding and crashing?
It's called "deep pockets". They settled didn't they? In the end, we all pay.
The Thing About Chad Boseman" Was his ability to be very humble and also a very strong mental/ Physical ability to be a genuine Super Hero!!!!!!! It's a very very hard thing to come off on screen as a super cool/Bad Ass/Very Intelligent " Super Hero/Man!!!!!! And too be as Humble as possible!!!!!!!! Is amazing!! Because most people that would have half his charisma and Good looks!!!!!? And everything else he had going for him!!!!? Would have a very hard time not letting it go to their heads!!!!!!!!!?" But not Chad!!!!! Very humble and modest!!! Always!!! He's sadly missed!!! God bless you all today Shalom
I can't even imagine being able to continue on with the Panther without Chad Boseman. He was perfection in this role. RIP Chad Boseman.
Rip Reeves the best superman
Phoenix didnt mix his last shot. He was 6 weeks clean. His dealer "friend" set him with a speedball at the strength he used to use. Once the drugs hit his system he wouldnt survive. The fact he made it outside the club was a somewhat miracle.
2:34 The actors were actually decapitated when the helicopter came down it crashed because Landis wanted a brighter flash for the action scene and it wound up blinding the pilot Who then lost control
Boseman and Reeves = Absolute Heartbreak
(Though in Bosemans situation, he never had a films like Superman 3 and 4 to hurt his legacy)
Lol
Not yet, anyways. Right? Lol
2:44. I can only imagine the high end lawyers Landis had to defend him. No wonder he got off. I can't help but suspect that he was directing the helicopters to come in closer and closer which led to the deaths. Hovering helicopters don't crash unless the blades hit something.
I loved Chadwick Bosemen. Very good. nice job!!! He was a great actor. Handsom too!..
This is really excellent.
Actually Brandon died in the room of the gun manager. The gun was placed aside for inspection and fixing. One of the actors began playing with the gun that needed fixing. The manager had stepped out for just a second. Brandon walked in from taking pictures for a slide of the movie. The kid playing with everyone else grabbed another gun which happen to be the faulty gun and got shot in the chest. This same situation just happened with Alec Baldwin and a female director. This shouldn't of happened with anyone else being this happend to Brandon.
This was such a harrowing video and as I'm old enough to remember most of these people and thier stories, I can't help but smile at the memories and I'm happy they were around to present such great moments in my growing up.
Great video
Most people did not know Rock Hudson was gay until after he died
I remember that time. I was a teenager when he died. There was a brief period of time when AIDS was called Rock Hudson's disease.
I wonder if he actually was gay. At the time he died, most people still thought aids was a homosexual disease and I wonder if him being gay is just a vicious rumor that someone started.
@@jimmyparris9892 You could always ask his former boyfriend Lee Garlington ...
When I was small we lived in Germany I always watched Combat I had the biggest crush on Vic Morrow I think I still do.
Opening night for "The Crow" was the first time I ever heard end-credit applause, the "subdued" volume was balanced by its' sustained length all the way until the house lights came up. As a comic book nerd, I knew the poetic Irony watching a dead actor brought back to life onscreen playing a character brought back to life for revenge. I had a Fear of the adaptation belittling the books' emotional drama from the moment production of the film was confirmed, although I enjoyed a reason to share my books with my friends instead of talking about them. Brandon Lee's death made me Despair that the film would be impossible to complete, although I suddenly had interest in my books from my female friends. Now my only Fear is writing too much perspective on a comment thread, but sometimes a nerd's gotta do what a nerd's gotta do.
You saw The Crow opening night??? Damn yer old! I mean, shit..
.....so old your SSN has only 1 dash in it.
.....so old the American Flag at yer elementary school was missing a couple of stars.
.....so old you had an uncle that was a pirate!
Lemme ask you this though. Did your first GI Joe have Swivel Arm Battle Grip?
I had to mail in 4 proof of purchases UPC's to get my Boba Fett action figure. That's how old I am!

You mentioned Wilt Chamberlain as Bombaata in Conan the Destroyer but missed that Andre the Giant was in it as well. Andre was uncredited but played Dagoth (the god of dreams) who Arnold also fought in the movie.
Did not know that. Fact checked it and it's true. Andre was uncredited as Dagoth. It's not like you could see his face. Still ima re-watch. Thanks!
Wilt Chamberlain was a great basketball player. One of the top three of all time. But to call him an action star is stretching it a little bit. I just finished reading his biography and in the last year of his life his health literally fell off the cliff.
It was due to a dental issue he never fixed I believe. He got elbowed in a game very hard during the 60s and apparently it became something that nagged him for the rest of his career. Turns out the hit had cracked his tooth or something like that, but by the time he had gotten to the dentist later in his life to try and fix it, it was too late and it had already created an infection which travelled to his heart, which explains the rapid weight loss. He also did have an underlying heart condition because he had been so tall from the age of 13.
Thank you!
So many of these folks are good humans as besides being famous.
i loved Heath Ledger Knights Tale.. Poor guy!!!
Thank You Grunge channel for this Tasteful Tribute to All these Charismatic Stars ... 🙏 May Good Gods & Goddesses Blessed All these Departed to a Better World & Realm ... 🕯🌻🌿🌍💖
Rest in Peace Kim Jonghyun 20 . & Aliyah 19 .
Heath Ledger 48.
Chamberlain found Dead 45.
River Phoenix cut short .
Anybody remember the tv series Roar? Heath Ledger as an ancient celtic warrior trying to protect his homeland from invaders (I think Romans). The scenery was stunning and Heath was basically beautiful.
Does the blood make you stronger?
The Game of Death was Bruce Lee's final film. Not Enter the Dragon. Granted, it wasn't completely done. They finished it without him, even put footage of his real funeral in the movie. Then released it.
Enter the Dragon was his final film. He stopped shooting Game of Death when Warner Bros. offered to produce Enter the Dragon. He only shot 4 fight scenes for GOD, got the call from Warner, and began ETD. So literally, the last film he completed was actually Enter the Dragon. That hodge-podge GOD that was released in 1978, by Robert Clouse (5 years after Bruce's death btw), while well intended, is an insult to Bruce's original script and concept. Go watch "Bruce Lee: A Warrior's Journey". Had Bruce completed GOD as intended, no doubt it would have been the best martial arts movie ever made.
Prayers going out to you.🙏🏾
And thank you for putting in the Substance abuse number at the end .
Selena was amazing too. Can't believe she was murdered by the crazy fan/thief.
I cried and cried then ì wished death on the woman who did this
You left out the other "Superman", George Reeves. I still remember the photograph in the paper of him lying on his bed after he shot himself.
15:10 Andre the Giant's prolific drinking habit probably didn't help his health either.
Is there any deaths that are not tragic? 🤔
Great point. When I was working in hospice there were some deaths that were certainly a relief to the patient and often times to the family also. So many family members have terrible guilt when they feel relief after seeing their loved ones pass after suffering from devastating illness'.
@@kathleenmuchka2559 yes I actually agree after watching both my brother and dad slowly getting eaten up by bonecancer. It is kinda a relief when it's over. More tragic to watch them alive than watching them die, in a weird way. Very weird feeling if one hasn't been in that situation. But... I still think that there's going to be hard to find a death that isn't tragic.
@@kathleenmuchka2559 I can understand that. Relief and guilt. I watched a lot of people I loved or grown to love pass away but suffered immensely while here on earth battling their illnesses. Saddest feelings that you wish to not ever have. And the guilt can drive someone "mad"..
My cousin was James Dean. Wish I could've met him.
Condolences
Really nothing to brag about, his movies sucked ass.
You must have heard great stories in your lifetime.
@@wizardofahhhs759 really??? You are truly coldblooded. Show some respect.
Chadwick🥺🥺🥺😭😭
Awwwwwwwwww!!!! Live each day, be kind to all!!
You forgot Jan-Michal Vincent. Think he's easily one of the worst fates. Alkoholism caused his downfall. In the end he was poor, afflictef with alcohol dementia and even an amputated leg, before finally dying.
He was awesome in the mechanic. Good acting
Respect your life.
It could be gone before you know.
Even if you are depressed, ask yourself, “Is it really that bad?”
Sadly, many who are clinically depressed would answer, "Yes."
@@leemcbride8146 rt. It's a daily process but EVERYONE is important to someone.
I still tear up seeing Chadwick Bozeman... him being the ONLY time I refer to another man as beautiful. 🥺
Bozeman was a true hero we were all shocked he shortly died doing what he loved the most we must all remember that
Vic Morrow has a famous daughter Jennifer Jason Leigh Fast Times At Richmond High, Backdraft, Single White Female.
Aaliyah was a great singer loved her voice and acting in Queen Of The Damned, me and my daughters mum named her after the singers name only spelt differently.
R.I.P to all these wonderful ppl
May, they all rest in peace 😇 ✝️ 🙏 🕊.
Amen
Thank you. AMEN. Philadelphia USA
Some of these accidents and natural young deaths are heart breaking
Sadly Rock Hudson life was cut too short. AIDS related pneumonia
Chadwick still hits hard ,what a talent what a human being ,I'd of happily seen a few more black panthers and I really can't stand marvel movies at best of times
In addition to Bruce, another of my martial arts/Saturday afternoon kung fu flick heroes has passed on. RIH, Sonny Chiba-Chiba y'all!
Damn! I only just watched the Kill Bill movies again last month.
@@Jedda73 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Why on earth - as a country do we idolize people who simply “act for a living”
Right?!
Chadwick Bozeman-a true hero forever
Hey, Grunge! You need to replace the picture of Eric Fleming with a picture of Irrfan Khan in the timed Chapter section of the Description.
They also show a clip of Val Kilmer when they were talking about Ledger...
There are many imitators, but they'll never be another Superman for me other than Christopher Reeve. 😉
He was the only Superman
@@SixxThirtyFive Amen to that!
George Reeves for me. Another tragic death.
Christopher reeve made and will always be SUPERMAN no matter what
Exactly!! I always said this! 😔😔
Enter the Dragon wasn't the last film before he died it was Game Of Death that was the last movie before he died in the middle of production
Fun fact.. Actor Vic Morrow is the father of Jennifer Jason Leigh..
Oh wow! I had 🤷♀️ no idea!
She changed her name due to her estrangement with her father
Very beautiful and talented people who died too soon,rest in peace
May they all rest in peace
Oh wow.
i already forgot about the people on this list.
Cold, yes you are cold indeed.
so i seen an interview with the actor (FUN BOY) who shot the gun in it and apparently according to them, Brandon LEE got hit in the STOMACH and it severed the aorta across his abdomen and he blead out on the way to the hospital because the paramedics couldn't do surgery
