Paul Walker Death Conspiracy - Drone Attack Allegation Debunked; Other Crazy Theories Surface
Another death, numerous conspiracy theories. Paul Walker of the "Fast and Furious" fame died in a driving accident.
He was a passenger on a speeding red Porsche and they crashed. The car was a total wreck and it was a tragic, horrifying accident. Case closed.
Well, not exactly. The conspiracy theorists are looking at every detail and every possible connection. Some are plausible and some are absurd.
The first theory has already been debunked, simply because it is a lone voice of dubious origin. The premise is also loosely based on circumstantial evidence.
The website Truther.org claimed that it would not be possible for a car to be split in half because of a tree (actual reports said there was also a post). The thin tree (only 6" in diameter) alone would not be responsible for the death of Paul Walker and Roger Rodas.
The site also claimed that the debris being scattered in all directions from the resulting explosion is similar to how the resulting debris appears after a drone strike. There is no other evidence presented, nor did the site state any possible reason why the US Government would want Walker dead.
Geek site io9.com has debunked this theory and has questioned whether the report was a parody.
Other conspiracy theories were based on Walker's last moments-in a charity event with Reach Out, a charity organization which the actor was involved in for a long time. The recent event was dedicated for Typhoon Haiyan victims in the Philippines.
From Godlike productions website, an anonymous user shared that Walker and his companion Roger Rodas, were killed "shortly after they discovered a conspiracy to supply victims of Typhon Haiyan with a prototype permanent birth control drug hidden in medicinal supplies and food aid." (quote from The Epoch Times)
No other mainstream media company has explored this, although local police has explored the angle that Rodas was drag racing, which is the reason for their apparent speed.
