The world has lost yet another one of Hollywood’s greatest talents. Paul Walker was more than just a handsome face with sparkling blue eyes. He was more than just one of the leads in one of the biggest movie franchises in the world – Fast & Furious. He was more than one of the most talented actors of his time. He was a father, a friend, a brother, and a humble human being.
The world lost Paul Walker yesterday, November 30th, in Santa Clarita, California at the scene of a fatal car accident. Some are calling it ironic that the star known mainly for his work in the Fast & Furious franchise died doing what he did on screen so effortlessly, although he was just the passenger in this tragic incident. While Paul Walker was seen as a handsome and talented action star, there are many things the public didn’t know about him.
In memory of Paul Walker, here are 5 things you may not have known.
1. Marine Biology Major
Many people don’t know that Marine Biology was actually Paul Walker’s first love and continued to stay with him even through his success as an Actor. He majored in Marine Biology at a California community college and was a huge fan of Marine Biologist Jacques-Yves Cousteau. He went on to join the Board of Directors of the Billfish Foundation in 2006 and went on to do many projects including the National Geographic series “Expedition Great White” in 2010.
2. Full Time Dad
Meadow Rain Walker, his only child, was born on the 4th of November 1999. While many people knew that he had a daughter not many people knew that he had just decided to take on the role of being a full time father.
3. He was religious
While many celebrities keep silent about whether or not they believe in a God, Paul Walker opened up about his religion:
4. Professional Race Car Driver
Paul Walker was known for his role as Brian O’ Conner in the Fast & Furious series.
While he drove fast cars throughout the series some may not know that he actually drove fast cars in everyday life as well.
He was a professional race car driver and worked with AE Performance.
5. Humanitarian
So he connected the dots.
Paul Walker made sure to give back to the community whenever he had the opportunity.
Helping Chilean victims after the earthquake as well as victims of the earthquake in Haiti, he was a true humanitarian. In 2010, he helped found the non-profit organization Reach Out Worldwide (ROWW), a disaster relief organization. Also, in 2010 he helped form REACT (Rapid Emergency Assistance Care Team), a group of EMTs and health-care professionals whose goal is to get into disaster zones the minute they hear news- ahead of the larger and less mobile emergency teams. Paul Walker was actually hosting a charity event to raise money for the victims of the Philippines Typhoon on the day that he died.
Paul Walker will truly be missed. He wasn’t just a charming and talented young Actor; he was a father, a friend, and a shining beam of light. R.I.P Paul Walker. Our thoughts go out to his family, friends, and loved ones.
This truly hurt my heart
R.I.P Paul Walker.

so hurting,.but God has a purpose we may not understand but I believe God knows what is best for his children.Paul Walker leave a legacy of helping others. We in the Philippines will always remember you.God Bless.
My heart goes out to Paul's daughter and the family of the driver. God be with you through out your journey
Why God calls back the good one and left behind the bad one (like myself)…..
Atleast he made the most out of his short life. The world is truly sad but angels in heaven are celebrating for your homecoming in heaven. All the love..
you would really loved Paul then you would love Jesus Who created Paul and would confess Him as Lord and Saviour. Why not do it now. Tomorrow could be too late. God bless.
I'm so glad to here he was Christian and a believer in God , that means that those of us the believe in God will see Paul Walker again soon .
