Oh, hell.

This is what happens when I vege for a couple of days. I knew he was in a incredibly bad conditiion, and that it was unlikely that he would survive, but they haven't been giving us huge amount of details here, I think because they want to protect his family. We don't even know here in New Zealand how he was injured. I must have missed the news update saying he had actually died.

I knew it was going to happen, but still ... it's hard when you come a small country that doesn't produce a huge amount of actors, you find yourself being very attached to each of them.

Hell. I could have gone and seen his acts here in New Zealand on a monthly basis, he was just always everywhere, always entertaining.

This is just so incredibly sad... and I had no idea! Really... I didn't even suspect anything like that and then I suddenly heard the news and couldn't believe it... He wasn't supposed to die. I was so upset that I couldn't even understand the article properly anymore. What *did* happen? Did he fall? Gods... so sad. And I bet it's terrible for such a small country. And his family, how terrible to have him die in another country...

OMG Silver, this is so sad :( I'm stunned to learn this, i dunno what to say. I've been such a big fan of the herc n xena shows... it's like learning the death of an old friend. It's gonna take some time for the news to sink in.
