R.I.P. Robin Williams.

When I heard about it I instantly imagined him in the scenery of one of his movies where he was searching for his dead wife in heaven... So beautiful scenery. I hope he is there right now. RIP

This guy was a legend and I can't believe that this has happened.

they will die all eventually, it's in the human nature, nothing to cry about, is like crying when you take a dump, is a thing that occur naturally, i know it's a cynic view but at least is not hypocrite

Don't forget James Garner, Heath Ledger, Brittany Murphy.

Drug overdoses. And james was natural.

Sadly it is often the funniest people who are secretly suffering the most and take their lives like this or in similar fashion. If you look at the comedy world there is a very big history of suicides, drug overdoses and other preventable deaths like Chris Farley, Greg Giraldo, Robin Williams to name a just a few of the many on the list. RIP Robin and sympathies to your family. Its sad more people can't see the pain and depression hiding behind people's comedy facades.

So sorry to hear this, he has brought so many fond memories. I cannot accept he committed suicide, it could be drug overdose but I doubt he would ever give up even in this life. Hard to say what my favorite Robin Williams role was. Probably Mrs. Doubtfire. What a huge loss.....

I'd say those early days of Mork and Mindy. But that was a good movie. Patch Adams was good too.My favorite bit by Robin is when he explains how the game of Golf was conceived/developed. It's absolutely "wet your pants funny."

Robin was a devout liberal and no doubt supported Obama...twice. It may very well be that the failures of Obama...and consequently the failures of our country contributed to Robin's depression. It's possible. He was good in 'Good Will Hunting' also.

My brother just informed me about all the charity work Robin provided for the military. He said that Robin once visited his battalion in Bagram, Afghanistan...and how he spent so much of his time one on one with many of the troops...pictures and stories and well wishes. Wow...quite a guy.

I never could understand the psychology of celebrity worship. I have far more sympathy for those who actually sacrificed something for us all like our military veterans. You know, the ones who we put on medical waiting lists while they die. I mean, who here wouldn't trade places with Robin relative to them who sacrificed so much. I just heard Larry King on Fox say Robin gave us a gift we could never repay and I wanted to gag.

[noviapriani]

btw, now that i think of it, he was on like his third marriage? and milked dry by the previous 2, maybe he was just broke and getting to old to work like a dog .

[sana8410]

If Robin offed himself then I can't really give him a whole lot of sympathy unless he was dying from a terminal disease. I never could understand how a person who has practically everything in life could just decide to check out one day because life is just so depressing. I guess the rest of us who live in the real world are just too busy trying to make ends meet while our government picks our pockets and lies to us to become drug addicted and depressed.
However this seems to happen all the time among the Hollywood elites, musicians, and other famous people who kill themselves with drugs and alcohol. Could it be their guilt of becoming rich and receiving accolades, adulation, awards, and trophies for doing nothing more than entertaining us? Maybe Robin just came to the realization that even Honey Booboo and Si Robinson are capable of entertaining the ignorant masses. I will leave the celebrity worship to the rest of you because I look up to a different caliber of individual.

wow, i must have missed this yesterday. what a legend. i'm sorry to hear this. RIP Robin....

Disappointing. It seems all the great comics are either dead or on their way out. I'll go out on a limb and say Louis CK is the youngest great remaining, remembering he already has one foot out the door. Not sure if they set the bar too high or if we're just a failing generation.

[jjc326]

Too bad, I did not expect to see that he died.  Often it seems like some of the greatest minds, at whatever they focus on, are depressed but they work hard at what they do to escape their depression. 

Let it be a lesson, even if it doesn't look like a co-worker or family member needs help, they might, so check in with them , really really check in.

[Febo]

so sad

[crystalsum]

Weird circumstance in which he died their can only be one of him sadly.
