Theory three: David Carradine was murdered?

The internet is buzzing this morning with searches related to the death of David Carradine.

Although autoerotic asphyxiation has emerged as the leading theory, ambiguous statements made by Carradine’s co-manager have led to widespread speculation that Carradine was murdered, or at least not alone when he died. However, few people realize how common and dangerous the practice of “breath play” can be.

As unfortunate as the circumstances around Carradine’s surprising death certainly are, it is still highly unlikely the Kung Fu star was murdered or that his death is anything more than what it appears. Including the death of Michael Hutchence, there have been several high-profile incidents of fatal autoerotic asphyxiation worldwide over the past few years.

Carradine’s body is scheduled to return to the states on Saturday.
