It wasn't that bad to see. Certainly you don't want to see it happen, hell we see worse things simulated on TV.

Yeah. I mean, it definitely wasn't graphic or anything. Just really messed up knowing the guy is now dead, where in a tv show it's just acting.

On the bright side, this guy was more believable than Ryan Gosling in the movie "Drive."

The only emotional reaction I got from watching that is that I now have a hankering to play Need for Speed. I do have compassion for those who are living in so much pain -- whether physical or emotional -- that they decide being in a place of such lonely despair is not worth going on. Those feelings can be very real for people suffering from them and I can't imagine the type of pain that would lead to feeling as though putting a bullet in your head is the most attractive option. But not for a guy who steals a car at gunpoint and then goes Baby Face Nelson on police right before offing himself.

That last part was awesome.

Loss of human life is always tragic, but this is the world we live in.

I'm sad that I was not shocked by it, and while I am saddened by the pain this man obviously felt (whether brought out through intoxication or not), this is a result of living in an imperfect world.

Spare me. This guy was a POS. The world is better off without him.

Not graphic at all. Did he say "spainin" instead of "explaining".

I was actually on that same highway yesterday but I believe it was after this had happened. Obviously the network messed up but it wasn't that graphic.

I look at it this way, unless it was a friend or family member, who gives a crap. It is a shame that people get to that point in their life, but he could have decided to go on a rampage and killed a bunch of innocent people, he did the right thing by taking his own life and not others.

Good kid. His smile could light up a room, and he made everybody laugh. Police shouldn't have done him like that. Leaves behind his best friend Arnie. Arnie is a pitbull. RIP dude.
