It makes you wonder how much stress they are actually under in the business.

R.I.P. Corey Haim

Stress??

I'd like to swap my stress for theirs! I'm sure a sizable amount of dosh in the bank would appease some of my stress.

[redman41]

Yes daffy, and there will be more in the Years ahead.
The History of Hollywood is littered with the deaths of Actors who have died before their time.

[another-view]

What makes you think his death is stress related?

[redcrx]

is it the stress, or is it the rich lifestyle, the pressure to look a certain way, the possible abundance of available drugs.

whatever if was RIP Corey Haim.

[daffy654]

Stress comes in different types B00 as i'm sure you know. Some of us are better at handling it than others though. I think many of these actors are pampered from an early age and really struggle when they dip out of the limelight.

[daffy654]

I suppose I'm speculating 'another-view' and I should know better! Sorry.
I was thinking that as it claims to be possibly due to an accidental overdose that he may have been on anti-depressants or similar which clouded his judgement.

[B00]

I just think most have really fragile egos to be honest daffy, and when things don't go their own way- they snap.

As horrible as it is when anyone dies, and it is, especially when so young, i really struggle to dredge any kind of sympathy for someone who has so much and can do so much, but apparently throws it all away.

Sorry.

So sad, but I don't feel they are under any more stress than you or me.

[daffy654]

I remember his best for The Lost Boys vibra, I loved that film!

[ummmm]

I loved the Goonies...still do.

[smart1]

me too ummmm

[B00]

He wasn't in Goonies, wasn't that Corey Feldman?

[Everhelpful]

Who is He?

[daffy654]

I honestly don't think i've seen him in any film other than The Lost Boys, I saw and loved The Goonies when I was younger but don't remember him in it (I could be wrong though). I'm not a cinema goer or film buff in any way so my knowledge of the industry is quite limited.

Well, who gives a damn? He wasn't exactly at the top of his game, nor fantastically famous. Bit of a hasbeen, to be quite honest, nothing of any note in his life since the late 80's so that just makes him an ordinary man who died. Comes to us all, rich or poor, stressed or not.

[B00]

Kim A, i imagine his family care a smidgen!

Undoubtedly, but it's not really an event requiring public mourning or comment.
