Agree there. Plus he got to thrash Acko's XB coupe.

Doesn't Merrick Watts own it now? At least the car lives on.

Lucky you put Ledger on the end of that. I was starting to think I missed seeing the light and hadn't crossed over.

TMZ has been contacted by a rep from Heath’s family. The cops told the family Heath’s death was accidental and there is no evidence to support the buzz that he may have committed suicide.

They are particularly distraught over media reports that he may have taken his own life. The family says he was not that kind of person.

As we just reported, Heath was ill with pneumonia when he died.

Michelle Williams is “devastated” by the death of her former fiance, Heath Ledger.

We’re told that “words cannot describe” the pain she is in over the news about the father of her child, Matilda Rose.

We’re told she is on a plane heading to NY right now.
Really just makes it sadder

He's not taking my f&^%ng car, I just had the gearbox fixed.

Good, it means it f&^%ng works, give him your f&^%ng keys!

Two Hands was indeed an awesome movie, to date its pretty well the only thing I've really watched that had him in it, and I thought he was good in that.

I did a few massage courses and from memory its a massive no no to massage someone with pnumonia. or was it influenza? anyway seems strange for him to be getting a massage if he was crook.

That part was pure gold. Funny too, when they are planning the bank robbery; and Heath questions the use of shotguns for the robbery, the dero's concerned and say's 'shotties are good mate' as his son Kelvin busts a cap through the roof, lol.

2 hands is 1 of my favourite movies, keep the quotes coming guys.

Wozza - Listen, i'd just like to um propose a moment of silence for Craig. He was a good mate, a bloody good driver, top mechanic. I seen him once, he tuned twin barrel carbies by ear with a beer in his hand. He could do full reco on a 350 donk and get it back in the car in less than a day.....bit of silence........BANG (shotgun goes off)...bloody Kelvin, i told you not to play with that, dads got a spitting bloody headache

RIP Heath Ledger (aka - Jimmy)

Was never a fan but RIP. I agree with Bluepower, as long as these people keep earning this kind of money and living it up it will continue to happen. What makes a person do such a thing if suicide was indeed the case?

I don't think suicide is the case here, he had been suffering with pneumonia and it seems that accidental death is what family and others are saying BUT once things are sorted out, we will know soon enough.
