Yeah I guess, but sometimes I think it was the tragic death that made him into such a legend... I don't know why. He's sort of the face of teenage rebellion, and died young--sort of an example of a rebel. Imagine an old rebel guy in his 80s right now? I couldn't.
          
          So I think it was because he died young that he became such an influential legend to rebels haha. :) 
          
          I don't know, just my opinion... probably wrong anyway.

Yes! All the famous icons from the fifties died so young and recklessly... James Dean also died in a car crash and in his twenties... it's so sad but coincidental at the same time.
          
          And you're so awesome! YOU understand me! :D :D Lately I've seen nobody does and it's just so sad... :(
