Re: RIP Michael Clarke Duncan
He was such a good guy. Died way too young.
He was so kind to random strangers he would give you 5 dollars if you knew his whole name when you seen him on the street.
He had such humble beginnings too, not the typical "purebred" hollywood guy like so many people today.
It was heartwarming to hear about how even when he had a manual labor job digging ditches for a gas company, his co-workers nicknamed him "Hollywood Mike" because he talked all the time about how he was going to make it big in hollywood.
He finally made it to LA and was working as a bodyguard prior to acting. He was supposed to guard Biggie the night he got murdered, and at the last minute his assignment was changed. MCD says that put his whole life in perspective
Rest in peace Michael.
