Seems that 2016 has taken another.
Anton Yelchin has just been found pinned between his car and his brick mailbox.
He is most famous for portraying Chekov in the J.J. Abrams Star Trek reboot.
Only 27, that is way too young.
RIP

My prayers go out to his family.
Seems everybody is dying these days.
Its hard to resist pointing out that everybody dying is a common occurrence.
Already a thread on it and must been one terrified dude as he was slowly pinned to dead behind his car... Probably not as terrifying as being part of the shitty new trek verse but ya

I liked him as an actor, other than that I don't really care

Yeah pretty sad, and died from a freak accident. His car rolled back on him in his driveway apparently which is crazy. Liked him enough as an actor. RIP
SourceFriends discovered the young actor's body after Yelchin was several hours late for a scheduled rehearsal on Saturday night. "They went to his San Fernando Valley home at around 1AM and found him pinned between his car and a brick mailbox, which was attached to a security gate," the report claims. The engine was apparently still running, with the car placed in neutral.
It's probably a combination of several shitty circumstances such as a loose emergency break, didn't engage the emergency break properly and/or not turning the wheels in to the curb or away if on a slope. I mean, who knows how far the car was between him and the brick mailbox but it must have been pretty close and sudden if he couldn't move out of the way.
It's a real bummer though and a real shitty way to go. Guy had a lot of talent and seemed like someone with a good heart.

Damn that's some Final Destination moment right there (possibly less elaborate). There's a reason why those movies actually scared me unlike 99% of the others horror films.
The wise wolf who's pride is her wisdom isn't so sharp as drunk.

Words to live by.
I wonder how much distance there was between the mailbox and the car when the car started moving. I can easily push my car around a bit when its in neutral, so its either one big ass car or it gained quite a bit of speed.
Never watched star trek but I still feel sorry for the guy and his family. Its a shitty way to die.

The driveway can't be that steep then, or you would notice it right away when you exit the vehicle.
I remember coming up with this scenario when we were discussing the most pointless and humiliating ways to die. Such a waste, was hoping to see more of him in future movies.
Mother pus bucket!
