Apparently he was a passenger in a friend's newly purchased 2005 Porsche Carrera GT when according to witnesses the vehicle lost control while travelling at a high rate of speed in an area posted for 45mph. It then struck a light pole and tree before becoming fully engulfed.

It's a shame for his family and fans, as well as the driver's family, but it sounds like the driver was showing off in a high performance car.

Im so upset, i knew and worked with paul on the first F&F movie my ford Racing ford focus was featured in the main race scene on the side of the strip and he choose all the cars used in the film at universal studios casting call where i met him and all involved what a great guy... He leaves a daughter named meadow and he will be sorely missed by all his fans and friend he worked with he did alot of charity work and was easy to talk to and had a great heart!

First introduced as Brian Earl Spilner in the first F&F.

Dom: [checks Brian's wallet] Brian Earl Spilner. Sounds like a serial killer. Is that what you are? Don't come around here again.

Brian: Man, you know this is bull****!

Dom: You work for Harry, right?

Brian: Yeah, I just started.

Dom: You were just fired.




RIP Paul Walker
