The death of Paul Walker in 2013 sent shockwaves through Hollywood, with the ironic circumstances of his horrific demise only adding to the heartache for his Fast and Furious co-stars. Walker was killed when the Porsche Carrera GT in which he was a passenger crashed at speeds of about 100 mph and nearly broke in half before it exploded into a ball of flames. The driver, Roger Rodas, was also killed. His autopsy revealed that the top of his skull had been so badly damaged that his brain was exposed. The description of Paul Walker's death is equally disturbing.
According to the Daily Mail, the LA County Coroner revealed that the actor was found in a "pugilistic stance," and the official cause of death on the certificate reads "combined effects of traumatic and thermal injuries," though Walker's autopsy report makes for much more graphic reading. He suffered multiple broken bones, including his pelvis, collarbone, and jaw, and his body was so badly charred that none of his organs was suitable for donation. Perhaps the most disturbing finding made during the autopsy was that Walker "could have taken a few breaths after impact as bits of soot were found in his trachea," the Daily Mail reported.
Thankfully for fans and family, such as Walker's daughter, no traces of drugs were found in either man's system.
