Ryan Dunn: "Wasted" on Night of Deadly Crash, Slammed by Roger Ebert on Twitter
It's no secret that Ryan Dunn was drinking on the night of his fatal car accident; the Jackass star Tweeted the below pic just hours before the crash. But now witnesses say Dunn was "wasted" and clearly in no condition on Sunday night. In light of this news, Dunn has been the subject of some extremely harsh criticism from fans and the media.
TMZ founder Harvey Levin says the amount of reaction over Dunn's death has been "almost unparalleled in the history of TMZ" and adds that comments have been "not particularly sympathetic" due to reports that Dunn was extremely intoxicated and driving at speeds in excess of 100 mph. Legendary film critic Roger Ebert has generated a storm of controversy for his Tweet reading, "Friends don't let jackasses drink and drive."
Dunn's Porsche was reportedly split in half by the crash and the 34 year-old had to be identified by his tattoos. A G4 reality show which featured Ryan performing dangerous stunts has been put on indefinite hiatus.
Regardless of the cause of the crash, Ryan was a unique comedy talent whose promising life and career were cut tragically short. RIP.

Some people deal with their disappointment and pain over someone's death by lashing out at the person who passed in order to make themselves feel better. How stupid and childish!!
It's unfortunate that Ryan was drinking and driving, but how about a little fucking sensitivity for the love of gawd?!! WTF.
