Tony Scott jumps to his death from Vincent Thomas Bridge
I am TERRIBLY sad about the death of Tony Scott. He's directed SO MANY amazing films, one of them being basically my favorite movie of all time, True Romance... words can't describe how sad and confused I am after hearing of Scott committing suicide. I just feel really bad, and I know his talent and work will be missed by millions, including me. My prayers are with his family
"Top Gun" "Enemy Of The State," And "True Romance" Director, Tony Scott Commits Suicide
Famed director Tony Scott -- who directed "Top Gun" among many other major films -- jumped to his death today off an L.A. bridge ... this according to the L.A. County Coroner.
According to the Coroner, 68-year-old Scott -- Ridley Scott's brother -- jumped from the Vincent Thomas Bridge spanning San Pedro and Terminal Island around 12:30pm.
U.S. Coast Guard Lt. Jennifer Osburn said a suicide note was found in Scott's Toyota Prius, which was parked on one of the eastbound lanes of the bridge.
Scott directed such films as "Top Gun," "Beverly Hills Cop II," "Enemy of the State," and "The Taking of Pelham 123."
Authorities used sonar equipment to find Scott's body in the port's murky waters. His body was recovered at approximately 4:30pm ... four hours after he jumped.
His body has since been turned over to coroner officials.
