'US actor Christopher Reeve, the star of the Superman movies who was paralysed from the neck down by a near-fatal riding accident nine years ago, has died of heart failure, his publicist said.

He was 52. '

Who here can remember those movies?

That's sad; my condolences are offered.

Oh my god you're fucking kidding me.

This is sad, sad, SAD news.

May he rest in peace, and my thoughts are with those affected by him, and for those (like myself) who were inspired by this man's courage and determination, defying the odds of human science.

Hats off to you Mr. Reeve - your legend will live on.

This is just too much. I just saw him on Oprah today, and was happy to see how well he was doing. Devastating news.

 

[Silverstone]

Rest In Peace.

He said that he plans on walking again some day. I'm trying not to think of the moral to this story.

It came as such a sock to hear this on the news. It is sad to see such a fighter die.

Ziff - Highly Innapropriate and sick.

Yes, Oprah was a (sad) coincidence. Thats the reason why its hurting more.

I also saw the US presidental debate and Kerry promised to help Christopher walk one day. Sad times.

 

[Ziff]

I didn't post it, so it's OK. Well done, mate.

 

[Annegelic]

That's sad, it really is. I liked the original Superman. But i think of it this way -- he lived 9 years paralysed.. that's a pretty crappy life to live, so it's a relief to die in a way.
