Director Tony Scott Commits Suicide
Its too bad, he made some pretty good movies.
Famed director Tony Scott -- who directed "Top Gun" among many other major films -- jumped to his death today off an L.A. bridge ... this according to the L.A. County Coroner.
According to the Coroner, 68-year-old Scott -- Ridley Scott's brother -- jumped from the Vincent Thomas Bridge spanning San Pedro and Terminal Island around 12:30pm.

Tony just wanted to take the bridge to the danger zone.
He had inoperable brain cancer. Which really once you're brain starts to deteriorate, it really isn't much of a life. I think he just wanted to give er himself instead of getting to the point where he can't make decisions any more, and his family just keeping him alive for as long as they can.
RIP

According to family, he didnt have brain cancer, or any cancer at all.

Are you serious? Why are you people saying RIP? He committed suicide...he doesn't deserve to rest in peace.
Condolences to his family for this coward taking his own life.

Woah, I don't know the details of this mans life, but I think it's taking things too far to call him a coward because he took his own life.
Many people who attempt (or succeed) at suicide are mentally ill. If in fact this guy had some form of terminal illness, he may have chosen this course of action with the full knowledge and support of his family. Neitehr you or I are in a position to judge him. That's between him, his family, and his god.
The simple fact is, this was a remarkable man, who touched many peoples lives through his art. He will be remembered and honoured for his contributions.
