Liam Payne dead at 31 (One direction)

[Resident]

I don't think he was trying to fly...

There's the speculation he may having been trying to flee.

IF the images of his room are accurate:

Damage to the room
Violent conduct
Narcotics openly on the table
Police present in the hotel

Minimum term for possession, assuming personal use amounts, in Argentina is 2 years.

Argentinian prisons aren't known for quality facilities.

With his income I doubt it. Didn’t Maradona have drug parties?

I doubt there was that much logical thought behind it after heavy drug and alcohol consumption.

He was most likely off his face and just leaned too far off the balcony and that was it. Nothing else to see really.

Another life wasted.

Indulge in too much drugs and booze, expect an early death.

There was only one direction for him to take if the police were breaking down his door.

It's crazy how much attention this guy is getting.

I swear the daily mail website had about 20 articles on he front page yesterday.

The guys dead, we know what happened.

time to move on and let his family grieve in peace

Have you really never heard that phrase before?

I believe charlie whiting described Senna as the same

They know their audience, it’s called clickbait and papers excel at it these days.

When I was growing up, journalism was a profession you had a bit of respect for, not anymore.

yea just AI clickfarms now.

It's crazy when you look at the UK mainstream news channels.

they all have a massive bias and agenda going on, just a way for rich nom-doms to try and push agendas it seems...

The same company owns every single local newspaper going as well now? the state of local journalism is absolutely insane.


How come theres monopoly laws etc but seemingly nothing to protect journalism from being bought out by billionaires, like that aussie guy who used to own most of our stuff

We (the ambulance service) use that phrase to confirm recognition of life extinct, it leaves no room for interpretation.

Sad event for this young fella, sounds like he might have mistaken his room for one on a lower floor and gone to leg it over the balcony, either way; far too young.....

 

[dacads]

The crazy thing is if he hadn't followed his dream and just lived a normal life that the majority of us have, he would probably be still alive.

Fame is a funny old thing that evolution is yet to adapt for.

Yeah, that's what a few in the music industry have said.

It's not all glitz and glamour, when your a young age the pressure and lifestyle etc. isn't normal. Also we know of other things that go on too.

 

[isthistheend]

As first posts go, this is pretty wacky!

I don't feel sorry for anyone who dies doing hardcore drugs. There are always other paths that can be taken.

He choose to waste his own life... not much more can be said really...

 

[I kill Bunnies]

I thought tonight's episode of Walking Dead: Book of Carol was particularly insensitive.

 

[isthistheend]

After watching people being burned alive in hospital tents for self defense, you become immured to anything that is not as bad.

Everything is now just child's play and accepted as normal...

if someone wants to waste their life just let them. No skin of my nose.

Just hope his money now goes to something more useful instead of just being wasted on white stuff to put up your nose.

I think people should stop connecting real life events and fantasy together, or we would have nothing.

there's always going to be someone in the world with similar circumstances.... that's kinda why they do it.

or we would only have programmes about non humans.

Quick ban lemmings before someone gets PTSD

Knowing someone who's fallen off an HGV (about 5 feet off the ground) and died from head injuries I'd say a fall from a 3rd floor is plenty high enough.

R.I.P.

My Uncle who was a builder died when he fell off the second rung of his ladders and hit his head hard.
However you don't stand on your roof considering suicide which is basically 3 storeys.
I've dealt with quite a few survivors who have jumped off motorway bridges etc.

heard a replay of the morning after radio1 hommage to the guy, which openly reiterated that fans have a parasocial relationship with such musicians - half way between real&fantasy ?
(well, similarly, people follow elon - wth)
Chris Hoys situation much closer to home for many.
