17. Looks like he wants to crawl out of his own skin! No way he wasn't on something. Plus he was known to hang around with the 'right' crowd to be a negative influence, like LINDSEY LOHAN!

19. God Bless him and his family. This is truly a sad day for many fans. He was an excellent actor with so much ahead of him. People of my generation are in shock!

20. I am from Australia and my kids have grown up watching this gentleman's movies. I am 43 and this morning I was told at 8.00 am aussie time he was dead. I was crushed I never knew this man and I was devastated, my tears flowed why I do not know.
I had watched him from his humble beginnings on Home and Away which still runs to this day and all his movies.
To Heath's family what more can I say as a Aussie I am so sorry for your son's death and to Michelle and Matilda never forget him please.
As a Aussie we take pride in our actors who make it big but hell DRUGS are not the way to go. I just hope it was a accident.
RIP HEATH YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN AND WILL GO DOWN AS A TRUE AUSSIE LEDGEND. 1979-2008
Goodbye Heath your memories will fade but never be forgotten

21. I loved Heath in 10 things I hate about you, and even liked him in Brokeback Mountain (once I got over the gay part, It was a suprisingly touching love story) I was shocked to learn that he had died- just last week I was posting on here about Brad Renfro. It is sad that such a promising actor decided to leave our world. God bless his loved ones, especially his young daughter. Let the angels carry him where they may
Heath, our world was brighter with you in it, grayer now that you are gone.
Rest in Peace

22. It is so sad that he died. I am sure his death was accidental and that he had no intention of killing himself simply because he loved his daughter so much. He adored her and doted on her. I can't imagine that he would have ended his life. As he says in this video clip, he wanted to be around to share in her life and to be with her. Rest in peace Heath and my condolences to his family.

25. CATCH 22 !!!!! Listen to the interview when says death is like a catch 22, TODAY IS THE 22ND !!!!! Was he planning this ??!?!

26. What a terrible tragedy...may he rest in peace. Many of us have said a silent prayer for his family and friends.

Please, TMZ, do not do a tawdry play-by-play of this incident; handle it with the same respect that so many of us had for this brilliant actor and special person.

27. How terribly, terribly sad that this beautiful young man is gone.
And, yes, it is merely eerie coincidence that Heath mentions death and dying in that interview, where he also speaks of living on for his dear daughter.
Seeing him, live, like that, and understanding that he was also in the midst of making a movie and flying between countries and time zones, it's easy to see that he was exhausted, and probably sleep-deprived/jet-lagged. In that state it's also sometimes difficult to sleep, strangely enough.
Plus, we won't ever know whether he'd taken the pills legitimately or 'kinda/sorta' accidentally taking too many, knowing that a 'masseuse' was coming, thinking that he'd be 'saved.'
Sick as that sounds, it is often the case of people seeking help to 'accidentally' overdose then phone someone and tell them, or do it when they know someone's coming. Again, none of us will know the truth unless it really was intentional and he left a note.
Whatever occurred, nothing takes away the absolute pity of his loss. May his family and loved ones be comforted in sweet memories.....

30. I feel very saddened to hear that Heath Ledger was found dead. Such a young person, so much to look foward to. I loved his movies, he was such a wonderful actor. No matter what status you have in life, we are all human. Everyone has to fight thier own demons. As a nurse, I have taken care of both rich and poor, and I found that money and fame does not make people happy, people that love and support you do. And in those final moments of your life, that is what matters the most. I pray for his family. May he rest in peace.
