Paul Walker’s fatal accident

As most of you know, Paul Walker, star of Fast and Furious, passed away on Saturday, December 1st in Santa Clarita, California at age 40.

Like most teens, Paul Walker thought that he was invincible and that his actions couldn’t kill him.

Although Paul Walkers’ death was very tragic, he gave an opportunity for teens to learn that reckless driving is dangerous, and they should always follow the speed limit. Many teens believe that when they are behind the wheel they are invincible, when in fact they are not. This also goes for drug and alcohol use.

Paul Walker’s charity, Reach Out Worldwide, recently announced that some of the money made from the Fast and Furious 6 DVDs would be donated to his charity in memory. As most of you know there is the upcoming Fast and Furious 7 that was in the middle of production. The producer and director are unsure of what to do. Rumors are confirmed that Paul Walker dies in the actual movie the way he died on Saturday. Finishing the movie could be disrespectful to his family.

Paul Walker’s family also asks that instead of spending money on flowers, donate the money to his charity in his memory.

What should be learned from this actor’s death and many other deaths are to not take life for granted. You never know what could happen tomorrow and you never know what you have until it’s gone. In a blink of an eye your life could flash right before you.
