On November 30, 2013, actor Paul Walker, who starred in parts 4, 5 and 6 of the movie “Fast and the Furious”, had an accident. He was a passenger in a sporty Porsche Carrera GT. The accident happened due to speeding.
The actor drove away from a charity event where he donated money to the victims of the typhoon in the Philippines, and at the time he was filming in the seventh part of Fast and the Furious. The car drove very close away from the starting point. Traveling at 100 mph (with a speed limit of 45 mph), Walker’s friend lost control and collided first with a curb, then a tree, and then was thrown into a lamppost and again into a tree. The seat belts saved neither the driver nor the passenger: the Porsche burned out.
Walker was 40 at the time. Specialists from the car manufacturer studied the accident and concluded that the car had no mechanical damage before the accident. All the anomalies identified by the experts could not lead to what happened.
Paul Walker had broken ribs and a pelvis. He couldn’t get out of the burning car. “Fast and the Furious 7” was filmed using computer graphics in some scenes. The late celebrity left behind a 15-year-old daughter and wife.
