David Carradine, who played Bill in Kill Bill, died yesterday under supposedly mysterious circumstances. It has now been confirmed that the dead was accidental, due to a sex game that went wrong. A spokesperson for Carradine said to TMZ:
We can confirm 100 per cent that he never would have committed suicide. It was an accidental death. Everybody is in shock.
Carradine was apparently attempting auto-erotic asphyxiation, which means he was trying to get heightened sexual pleasure by restricting his air supply. It’s a little weird, we know. Such a tragic accident, Carradine was brilliant in the Kill Bill films and will be sorely missed.
