Given that TMZ isn't loading, no one else is reporting it, and that this would be horrifically ironic, I want to call BS...or at least I hope so.

Edit: TMZ is loading now.

What are we to believe?

That site's fake, you can put any name in the address and the article just replaced their name/movies.

poor form for TMZ if they were fooled by this. They used to be rock solid.

Looks like Paul Walker is still alive, living his life a quarter mile at a time!

Edit: Fuck spoke too soon. So now he actually might really be dead?

Haha, I remember everyone burning out in the parking lot right after watching that movie. It was hilarious.

So it would have been better for the deceased if it HAD been a Tesla.

TMZ page for those who can't load it:



Paul Walker
Dead at 40
In Fiery Car Crash
33 minutes ago BY TMZ STAFF
Exclusive
1130_paul_walker_article_getty

Paul Walker -- best known for his role in "The Fast and the Furious" movies -- died Saturday afternoon after a single-car accident and explosion in Southern California ... TMZ has learned.

The accident happened in Santa Clarita -- north of Los Angeles -- and according to multiple sources connected to Paul ... the actor was in a Porsche when the driver somehow lost control and slammed into a post or a tree ... and then the car burst into flames.

Several of our sources -- some who are still at the scene of the accident -- tell us Paul and another person in the car were killed. Law enforcement is still on the scene, and we're told the L.A. County Coroner's Office is on the way.

1130_paul_walker_accident_scene_twitterAt this point, it's unclear what caused the accident, or who was behind the wheel when it happened.

Paul was 40 years old.

Sources close to Paul tell us he was in Santa Clarita for a car show to support the Philippines typhoon relief effort, and had been taking friends out for rides in his new Porsche GT. The accident happened during one of those test spins.

Story developing ...
