Why do the real heroes don't get any mention. Sad that Paul Walker died. But what about the real heroes.

NO! BoB is my all time favorite series! Man oh man. Guarnere and Babe were such good friends, I hope he's taking it alright.

Paul Walker dies and we fill 8 pages, how many pages get filled when a real hero dies ...

It's a combination of two things, first dying young. Also, Paul Walker was shop talk for gossipy teenage girls, and that went viral beyond what would have happened if he wasn't considered a heartthrob.

Your title is a bit disrespectful. Instead of honoring your hero, you mock another to make a case. If the topic surpasses 8 pages, it's because people will debate this premise.

In no way did I mock Paul Walker, but each and everyone who look at him as some sort of hero, when there are real hero's out there that walk amongst us on a daily basis with little thanks for what they do/did, no paparazzi at their door, few TV spotlights or snipits or posts on these boards. What could possibly be that confusing about Paul Walker and his untimely death that we fill up 8 pages, when we can barely fill up 1 page about someone who's exploits where 1000 times more meaningful. Look introspectively Cyrstallas.

Real heroes die every day, all the time. Paul Walker is just bubblegum fantasy for consumers. In this modern age, you get what you pay for.

Paul Walker had millions of people willing to pay money to see him do his job. That's the why.

Does it make it right? Probably not. That's just how it goes.

Give Jester a trophy for not tipping his tractor over while doing doughnuts and jager bombs simultaneously on Thanksgiving

Same here. Walked out at low tide (or lowish) and looked back at the bluffs. Incredible. Pointe du Hoc was also pretty amazing

Is/was that really true? Where these people that are paying money to see FNF - instead of using said money to buy another flat brimmed baseball hat or decal for their car - really paying money to see him SPECIFICALLY or just the entire FNF 891 experience (cars, chicks, ensemble cast)?

Who knows.

That's getting a bit nit-picky. It's a simple fact that he was paid millions of dollars to star in movies that millions of people paid money to see.

Same thing can be said about Nelson Mandela. One of the most important people over the last century
