Damn that sucks. I'm on my phone so I only skimmed the first paragraph. Such a shame he was driving like an idiot and while being allegedly drunk. I have no sympathy for Dunn whatsoever if the allegations are true.

I wonder (hope) if this will be a wake-up call for the other members that they are indeed, not invincible, and life will catch up to them.

I don't see what this has to do with anything they do. Driving 180mph while drunk has nothing to do with any of their stunts. It's 100x more stupid than any stunt they have ever attempted.

RIP and thoughts out to all affected by this act of stupidity.

Because I'm sure many of them make poor decisions outside of Jackass, and I wouldn't be surprised to hear about Bam or the others driving drunk. This is their lifestyle, this has everything to do with what they do.

Doubt it was 180 mph probably 180 KPH which isn't that terribly fast only 111 mph. It's too fast for any American city for sure but I've been at that speed before and it's nothing too scary. Now drinking and driving is just flat ass stupid.

Who would of ever thought that anyone would die before Steve-o?

I'll withhold judgement until it's confirmed that he was a) driving and b) drinking, so I'll just say it's sad that he's gone. Like many have said, he seemed the most likable of the group.

I don't think you actually get to learn any lessons if you end up dead.

Jokes aside, drinking and driving is not only stupid but one of the most selfish things one can do. He passes away and leaves his friends and family to grieve.

The saddest part about drinking and driving is its often the drunk people that end up surviving the collision, and the sober innocents paying the ultimate price.

Agreed with all the quotes above. And now my rant...

According to reports, and pictures he tweeted before the crash, he was drunk...or drinking before the crash. Sorry...no sympathy from me. I've lost many people from drunk drivers.

This is obviously a hard time for the "Jackass family" (Bam, Johnny, etc, etc) but I have a hard time saying "RIP" when the dude was behind the wheel drunk. I'm just glad that no one else was involved. No innocent lives were taken, except maybe the passenger in the vehicle. But they also had a choice.

It's disappointing to hear, that he died, the horrible way in which he died, and the alleged circumstances of it. I really feel for his friends, family and loved ones, and that of the other person that died.

I am a huge Jackass fan. I was a Ryan Dunn fan. This is terrible news, but it's not terribly surprising to hear alcohol possibly played a role in his death. He never really hid his drinking habits.

Shouldn't we wait until we find out what happened before saying good riddance for driving while drunk. He may have been the passenger and handed his keys over before driving home. That may have been the only drink he had at the bar. Lots of variables in play here before we jump all over him for getting what he deserved for driving drunk
