‘Pugilistic Stance’ Paul Walker’s Final Attempt To Stay Alive? Crash Report Details ‘Fast And Furious’ Actor’s Final Seconds

Recent accounts claim that Paul Walker's dead body was found in a "pugilistic stance". The coroner's report, which was released last Friday, likewise affirms that Paul Walker's death can be accounted to the multiple fractures that he acquired which directly affected his collarbone, jaw, left upper arm, ribs, and pelvis.

TMZ reports that when Walker died, his body was in a defensive position aptly called the "pugilistic stance". Such stance is reminiscent of a boxer's defensive stand. It can also be likened to a fetal position. However, as opposed to claims that the 'Hours' actor purposely braced himself before the impact, experts claim that the "pugilistic" stance is commonly seen in severely burned bodies.

Due to the impact of the car crash paired with fire, one's corpse can have a "flexion of elbows, knees, hip, and neck, and clenching of hand into a fist." The same coroner's report adds that none of the actor's organs could be saved and donated.

The 'Into the Blue' actor died on November 30 after the Porsche Carrera GT being driven by his friend Roger Rodas slammed into a light pole and tree. The car quickly became engulfed in flames.

Many conspiracy theories have surrounded Rodas and Walker's death. 'Paul Walker Faked His Death' is one of the famed theories. According to such claim, the actor orchestrated his death so that he could have a Hollywood exit and regain his privacy. His younger brother, Cody, denied such reports and deemed media "cruel" and "disrespectful" for fabricating the story.
