David Carradine’s manager, family begin damage control

Thailand police are sticking to their story that “Kung Fu” and “kill Bill” actor David Carridine’s death was accidental.

A maid found Carradine’s dead body curled up in a closet early Thursday morning. A shoestring was fashioned around his neck and attached to his penis. A separate cord was used to bind his hands behind his neck.

The method of death is consistent with erotic asphyxiation (or strangulation), which involves temporarily cutting off oxygen to the brain in order to achieve heightened sexual arousal.

No sooner did the news break that 72-year-old’s death was the result of a kinky sex game, Carradine’s manager and family rushed out statements crying foul play. They pointed to the fact that Carradine’s hands were tied behind his back.

Apparently, they feel there is dishonor in dying an old pervert as opposed to being murdered.

Thai officials believe Carradine died from suffocation or heart failure following an orgasm. Men don’t usually achieve orgasms during the act of being murdered unless there was some pleasure involved.

Carradine’s manager Chuck Binder originally told reporters his client died of natural causes. Carradine’s body was shipped back to the United States today.
