    Such a good interview. Man it kills me no one was there for him at the end. He should still be here

      I was reading an article that claimed it was the story directly from his wife today. She said that they were on vacation. They were drinking and having a good time, went back to his room and had some emotional but good conversations. She went to get snacks from the lobby and was gone maybe 10 minutes max and that's when he did it. She couldn't get him to answer the door, someone heard the commotion of her banging on the door and called the cops. Cops busted down the door and found him after he'd already passed. So sad.

      ​@xanadudeproductions6326 yeah, nobody was having a good time and then kills themselves a few minutes later. It was the anniversary of their daughters suicide and she says they were out partying? He said in this interview he doesn't drink.

      @@Treaxvour He DID drink. He was always battling alcoholism and was sober for 10 years. But people fall off the wagon. When police found Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington in his hotel, dead by hanging (suicide) they found two empty beer bottles and he was sober for a while too so he fell off the wagon. It happens.
      Also, Tammie stated her daughter didnt commit suicide but we still dont know the cause of death. All we know is she died in Oct of 2021, two days after JDF posted that In My Head poem short film, JDF was the one who found her body, she had a baby Drayden Meekins 5 months earlier, with her spouse Jason Meekins (who supposedly Jason was suing JDF for custody of the child later in 2022 but I also heard it wasnt JDF it was Tammie he was suing) and Shayla was a 3rd degree black belt instructor at JDF's school similar to how her mom Tammie was also an instructor at JDF's school. Then a month or 2 later after her death, JDF and Tammie separated (allegedly)l and the next year by August, divorce papers were filed but according to Tammie, sometime in Oct of 2022 they changed their mind and began to try to reconcile their marriage after a friend of the family convinced them to stay together.
      And getting back to In My Head and the other poems he did "Mask" and "Mental Prison", you can see that JDF opened himself up to a lot of his vices he's had all his life; so even when some people can be at the highest moments in their life; depression can still hit you.
      JDF said thre's nothing different from a millionaire with depression than a poor person with depression. Depression is still depression.
      And, his first daughter, Skye, if we are to believe what she says is true (which was a recent video she did), she said one time JDF tried to take his life with a gun to the head but missed.
      And Skye's own mom Shawna, had a history of drug and alcohol addiction and suicidal tendencies besides financial difficulties.
      And now Skye says her brother Jacob has been having suicidal thoughts since JDF has died.

    I love JDF I grew up watching him on Power Rangers and I continued seeing him at cons. He is a big part of my childhood and also part of my adult comic convention life.
    That said, he was a diva. JCVD IS a DIVA. I love this story cause both are show how fame got to them.
    Again I love both of them but I hate fame did get to them. I just hope JVCD doesn't go down the same route...

    I think this is why he died, the illuminatie style suicide shit is prevalent over and over time and time again, we have a a puzzle piece here someone who cares more do your research? What if ( they kill him, his daughter gets his money she signs to movie, are they who wanted 15% in relation to the movie? And get her money through his death?... im telling you I may be on to something here but idc really I just know something is up he wasn't like that from what I seen he helped others in DP, but just to my thought 💭 because I feel it ain't adding up.

    JDF Was one of the coolest guys ever to me and I hope I can meet JCVD and broke my heart when I heard JDF talk about this encounter with him, he had a big EGO back then, maybe he was jealous because he was at JDF premiere I don’t know or it was the drugs because a lot of people says he’s a very nice guy.
