There's apparently debate as to whether he or his friend was driving. Either way

Come on guys. I dont condone drinking and driving either but im still sad that he is gone. Everybody makes bad choices and its really ....ed up that his caused the end of the life of at least one other person as well as his own. But that doesnt mean he is a bad person or worthy of his death. He ....ed up and paid a very high price for it. Let this tragedy serve as a reminder to call a cab or a sober friend if you are too bombed to drive.

Keep in mind also that this is coming from someone whose high school best friend's father was killed by a drunk driver while the man was trying to do his job and tow a broke down vehicle off of the freeway. The words of Gandalf ring true here:
"It is true that there are many who live that deserve death. And some that die who deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends."

I refuse to let this one dumb mistake negate all the good choices he made in life, nor null the laughter and joy he brought to other people.

RIP Dimebag Darell.. jk.. that's some sad news really, but the truth is, he asked for it.. slamming his porsche in 110mph just before dawn-break after a looong night full of drinking and taking the passenger with you is just, pure madness.. We live on 100% but not for too long.. the truth is, that when we keep reading about guys like these in the news, we usually feel anger - cause he's that bad guy who underestimated himself, he could have killed a baby..he sat behind the wheel and killed some more people due to his own mistake.. funny how we're able to overlook such thing just because one guy slammed his nuts with a baseball bat more often then I go take a pee..
i still think- better than if he died in his late 80s crapping his pants and talking to himself in a very weirdly manner thinking he's Cinderella.. Maybe its gonna end up like that Elvis Presley theme, people are gonna talk and conspire even after a decade that he probable faked his own death and is currently living somewhere in proxima centauri.. still he must have been a huge personality and in his short life, he accomplished some wonderful stuff most of us could dream of.. he was a modern 21st century clown..

the king is dead, long live the king..

For god's sake, he was driving after having three beers and three shots. Ergo, he was sloshed.

Obviously it sucks that he died (the Jackass toy car stunt made me almost piss myself laughing ) but really... he was driving drunk. I'm finding it hard to feel pity for him. He took someone else's life as well, remember that. Dunn's family and the other guy's family should be the people we're thinking of.

Drunk driving is so selfish and pathetic, this jackass killed someone with his poor judgement.

Hate me but I have no sympathy for someone who kills other people because they were drunk and decided to drive their car.

How many times does "let this be a lesson" have to be said untill people actually start listening? Surely someone like Mr. Dunn had many great friends, and has lost people to car accidents, yet still chose to drive drunk.

I feel horrible for Dunns crew and family, and even worse for the passengers family.

Basic laws of physics and engineering. You have something weighing 1400kg travelling at 100mph, that stops in a very short distance in a uncontrolled manner. Chance are a fuel line's going to rupture even if the tank doesn't, petrol vapour plus ignition source (sparking electrics, hot engine part especially if he'd been ragging it) equals combustion.

Cars very very rarely catch fire in real life, even in very severe accidents. This isn't hollywood. How many flaming cars have you seen in your lifetime? I am clocking in at 0 in 25 years, and counting news alongside it.

No I'm not talking about the whole Mythbusters, conflagration but a simple search shows that accidental auto fires, can and do happen. I will admit they are a rarity but there is plenty of evidence. Personally I've seen 3 that I can recall.

Car fire dangers - Telegraph

BBC News - Second arrest over car crash fire death in Liverpool

Like I said rare but not without the bounds of possibility.

Car fires resulting from car crashes I'm sure are just more popular in more populated areas.

I can name a few off the top of my head that happened within the last few months here.

San Antonio population ~ 2,000,000

As someone who lost 4 friends in a car fire from a minor crash, I suggest you stop pulling numbers out of nowhere.
