  1. Why did she need to do it again? She completed 4 successfully so why the need for a fifth?

    R.I.P.

    • She was trying to get a lesbian’s phone number ….. didn’t work out for her !!? (See: God)

  2. They could at least mention her accomplishment and who she is in the fucking news!

    RIP sister…

  3. God also said judge NOT lest ye be judged, asshole.

    Find something to do…instead of being mad because no BW wants your sorry ass.

  4. This is so sad. Back in 1995 a black female stuntwoman working for Angela Bassett on the movie Vampire In Brooklyn died. Message to all stuntmen and stuntwomen, be careful. If the stunt looks too dangerous, don’t do it. Your life is more important that making movies.
