Sadly, Caine no longer walks the Earth.

Yahoo! reports it as a possible suicide. He was found hanging in his room.

Either way, this is sad....
I would wonder at his age why he would feel the need to do that?

The guy was getting better roles, wtf?


They killed bill

Oh NO.

Really sad news I love him.

aw man, I liked him. suicide is a heartbreaker. what could make a 73-year-old man in good health think he couldn't stand to go on for just a few more?

noooooooo!!! what a bummer. he has some pretty young kids too, i think.
condolences. he was rad dude.

RIP Frankenstein.

Childhood memories of grasshopper.This is a real shock!

I just saw his bad ass i a couple of movies this week. Good bye.

Just reported: auto-erotic asphyxiation.

oh, damn
RIP

Do you have a link?

soooo... he tried to choke himself while masturbating?

That would be the definition of auto-erotic asphyxiation, yes.

Probably as close to an official confirmation you're going to get this soon.

Ha...dude! I was reading all of these posts and after what MyDogFarted and Wild Sage wrote, I was totally thinking, "Hmm....'alleged suicide"...hotel room ... hanging....Michael Hutchence of INXS" and was going to reference it as a possibility.

So yeah, I haven't read past your thread.

Man, those last few seconds when you realize that this is the way you're going to go have got to suck.

Keith, with asphyxiation, you don't really have coherent thought as you "fade out" (about the only way I can explain it). We did the asphyxiation thing when we were younger (although not in a sexual way) and I gotta say...when I die - I wouldn't mind going that way.

I'm pretty confident he went out totally peaceful.

I had no idea that Michael Hutchence had done that, I have always thought his was suicide...wow, so sad.

Wow, freaky sex is pretty easy to find in Thailand (from what I understand), why do this?

Bill killed hisself.

RIP

Probably because nobody chooses what turns them on or what they prefer.

Just like I can't relate to a foot fetish..but I can't condemn or be confused about it turning someone else on. Again, nobody chooses to be turned on or off by anything. It just "is."

So it's not like the "freaky sex alternative" was a viable option if he was doing what he preferred at the time...ya know?

This.

And yes, lots of fun and freaky shit you can find in Thailand, but to each its own.
