Club 27


Remember in the Star Trek movie when Kirk fires Scotty and tells Chekhov to take over? Chekhov looks apprehensively at a red shirt.

Anton Yelchin died when his car rolled back on his inclined driveway and pinned him against the gate post. He died just after 1am on a Sunday and was checked up on when he was late for rehearsal. 

 He wears mustard for fucks sake!

It's a shame, of all the people that could have died like this it had so be someone (not just a part of a franchise) that seemed to be nice. Trump, Ted Nugent, Johnny Depp or even Martin Shkreli .... why not them? 

Yelchin was in a movie I liked called Odd Thomas as well as the Star Trek ones. He gave comedy relief by trying to voice activate things using his Russian accent. 

Is it a curse or a bonus that he died aged 27?  Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin and Amy Winehouse all died aged 27. Now there is a 27 club listing those famous and slightly famous people who died at that age. 

No conspiracy it's just coincidence as there are plenty of famous people that didn't die aged 27.   

Anton Yelchin not only joins the stupid deaths of the Darwin awards but he will also live on forever in Club 27 click bait posts.
