Heath Ledger died

Post by Crocodile Hunter »

On my timezone, yesterday, apparently.
I didn't know if it was for real as my friend told me about it few minutes ago, but I'm shocked.

This was in wikipedia.

According to the New York City Police Department, Ledger was found dead in his apartment in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan on January 22, 2008.[20][21]

"At 3:31 p.m., a masseuse arrived at Apartment 5A of 421 Broome Street in SoHo for an appointment with Ledger, the police said. The masseuse was let in to the home by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Ledger’s bedroom. When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and found Ledger unresponsive. They shook him, but he did not respond. They immediately called the authorities. The police said they did not suspect foul play and said they found pills near his body."
Rest in peace. -_-

There's also a full news story here.

Heath was an amazing actor with terrific talent and was should be remembered as one of the greats of his generation. I'm incredibly sad, and I mean this, to read of his death and I hope everyone will go and enjoy at least one of the two last and will probably be greatest performances of his life, the Joker in "Dark Knight" and Robbie Clark from "I'm Not There".

So so sad. I feel for his poor daughter. :(

I read it yesterday and was shocked. now I'm really sad. He was a great actor and died too young - at age of 28 which makes the situation even sadder :(

Rest In Peace Heath. The whole world will always remember what a great personality you were.

I was really shocked when I heard about this. I was at the comic book store at the time with a friend when I heard. The owner, a friend, was on the phone with her sister and she told me that her sister called to tell her that Heath died just an hour earlier.

Poor guy. I feel bad for his daughter. That's going to be very traumatizing. Her parents were already separated and now her dad died. Not cool at all.
