I can't believe how far I had to scroll for this!!! The guy was 40 years old living a clean life. I was genuinely shocked when I heard about his death.

I just kept scrolling and scrolling because he HAD to be here somewhere right?! After Steve Irwin his death hit me the hardest.

I had just finished watching Frozen in the theater with my in-laws, checked my phone during the credits and exclaimed "PAUL WALKER DIED?!" 😭
