What happened to director Tony Scott?

Last updated December 13, 2020 by ZagBot Comment

British film director and producer Tony Scott died by suicide, aged 68, when he jumped off the Vincent Thomas Bridge in the San Pedro district of Los Angeles, California, on August 19th, 2012.

He had left his Toyota Prius car parked on the bridge, with a note containing contact information, and a note for his family was found later in his office. No reason for his suicide was publicly disclosed, and the coroner found no evidence that he was suffering any serious underlying medical condition at the time.

Scott, the brother of film director Sir Ridley Scott, was best known for directing box office hit movies such as Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop II, Days of Thunder, and Crimson Tide.
