Death

Walker and 38-year-old Roger Rodas left for Walker’s charity Reach Out Worldwide event around 3:30 pm in his Porsche Carrera GT on the 30th of November, 2013. Unexpectedly, the car crashed into a concrete lamp post. Eventually, the vehicle burst into flames. Rodas died due to multiple trauma. Walker, however, died of combined effects of trauma and burns. Their bodies were burned beyond recognition.
The cops did not find any traces of alcohol or drugs. They also did not see other mechanical failure or road conditions. Furthermore, no evidence of drag racing was also found. Finally, they concluded the age of tires as the primary reason for the crash.
During the time of his death, Furious 7 was in the middle of filming. Therefore, Universal announced the indeterminate hiatus. Later, the film was completed by using his brothers Caleb and Cody as his body doubles/stand-ins, and CGI.
