ClayMeow Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 In case you haven't heard, actor Robin Williams was found dead today at age 63. One of many sources.

l1il Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 It is sad to see how happy he was on film and what a great comic actor he had been, but in his everyday life he was depressed. It could well be because of drugs that he was depressive. Why he started drugs is beside the point. On canadian medias, they are reporting that it is a suicide without specifying the nature of his death. All in all, he can be proud of his time on Earth. Time well spent with lots of awesome films. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GabrielT Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 I feel so bad for him, I feel like I understand his pain. I have always seen the pain in his smile, it is the same smile I put on for the world. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword_fish Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 true are those people(mostly the actors/comedians) who made us laugh and somewhat we thought them as a happy man but it seemed there's pure sadness behind with their happy faces. we cant deny that he had made the whole world a good laugh and cry with his remarkable craft. RIP Robin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Here's an article from one of my local news stations (hopefully it's not location-gated) that talks about Williams and Koko the gorilla: http://pix11.com/2014/08/12/koko-the-signing-gorilla-is-mourning-the-death-of-robin-williams/ Video of their interaction from 2001: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
